Old Fashioned Silver Dollar Jerky

When I was a little kid one of my favorite "special treats" was when I had enough money saved up to ride my bike to the liquor store and buy 4 of these for a dollar. The second I saw them on Amazon for sale, and at the price, I had to have em!!! Bought this one, one in Teriyaki flavor and Teriyaki Beef Sticks. Now every time I go in my kitchen, that favorite childhood "special treat" is just waiting for me to eat way to many! :) I've seen some comments that stated they came stale, hard as a rock. When I ate the first one, the first bite I did sort of stop mid bite and thought "this taste a little weird." Well, it was actually because they were so fresh, my palate was used to the semi or, full on stale stuff I'd been buying for over 30yrs. I ate so many the first day they came in, I ended up putting the jar I had on my kitchen countertop in the pantry because I could not walk by it without at least grabbing one...ok, at least 2...maybe 4;) Good stuff, great price. I think I may just leave a jar open for 24hrs so they do taste a little more stale just like the liquor store ones I am used to. lol

They changed the ingredients and added in beef hearts to save money. That’s why it tastes so bad now. I bought it from Amazon and Tillamook directly and both are the same. The rep from Tillamook confirmed they added in beef hearts as the main ingredient (obviously to save money.) That is also why you’re seeing a lot of fat deposits now and the slimy texture. I was a long time fan and patron and now won’t buy it unless it’s changed back. Very disappointing.

Tastes really good.

Not a negative review but everyone needs to know that this is not a slice of real beef cured like real jerky meat. This is a ground paste that was cooked and then sliced to look like jerky and packaged. Bland taste and looks like _ _ _ treats.

There are generally two kinds of jerky, strips of meat or jerky made from ground meat. This jerky falls into the ground meat category. The flavor is great, traditional salt and pepper sort of style with a nice touch of smoke. The black pepper is on point. I was actually glad to see the usage of MSG as well, it adds a really nice savory flavor to pretty much anything. The jerky is very edible and not tough on the teeth at all, like strips can be. As far as value, jerky can be expensive, but $20ish dollars for the 13ish oz., I feel like this jerky is a steal. I'll have no problem finishing the container and returning for additional orders. Definitely looking forward to trying their other products as well.

Great and fresh snack of jerky and I keep buying this when I run out of them!
