Hunters Kolskoot

If you are looking to hit the absolute bullseye (kolskoot in Afrikaans) at your next backyard cookout, Hunters Kolskoot Sprinkle by Freddy Hirsch is built exactly for that. It is a premium, robust South African seasoning crafted specifically for open-flame cooking, wild game, and traditional campfire dishes.

Kolskoot is a dark, granular, free-flowing spice mix that leans heavily into aromatic, earthy herbs. While traditional South African biltong spices usually focus purely on toasted coriander and black pepper, Kolskoot introduces a masterful combination of rosemary and thyme, giving it a savory, herbal depth that pairs beautifully with rich meats.

Top Notes: Aromatic rosemary and warm thyme.

Base Notes: Classic cracked coriander, black pepper, and a touch of sweetness to balance the salt.

Best Used For

This blend was formulated with the discerning outdoor cook in mind. It holds up incredibly well against high heat and long cooking times:

The Braai: Generously shake it over thick-cut steaks, lamb chops, or venison right before they hit the open coals.

The herbal profile of rosemary and thyme slowly blooms when simmered for hours in a heavy cast-iron potjie, enriching beef, lamb, or game stews.

Campfire Feasts: An excellent all-rounder seasoning to keep in your camping bin for upgrading simple fireside meals.
