Review of Wild Ride All-Natural Beef Jerky, Hoppin Hickory, 12 Count 1.25-Ounce Bag

I like beef jerky to be tender, not leathery and near impossible to chew through. This beef jerky comes in perfectly sized pieces and is very tender, probably even more tender than my favorite brand, Pemmican.

As for the flavor, it's not very strong. There is some flavor but the tenderness of the beef makes up for the lack of flavor. It also isn't as salty as other brands of beef jerky that I've had before. Overall it's a great buy and I recommend it.

Every year there was a jerky tasting contest where families competed for the glory of making the best Texas jerky. To win was considered the highest honor a person could receive. As Jim grew older, he found that there was not a jerky on the market like the tender, delicious beef jerky he remembered from his youth. So, determined to make beef jerky the way it was meant to be, he created "Wild Ride" beef jerky. To create the perfect beef jerky Jim followed these five basic guidelines that inspired "Wild Ride": Make it Flavorful, Make it Tender,Make it Tasty,Make it from Natural Ingredients with No Chemical Additives andMake it Low-Fat while Keeping the Flavor and Tenderness.Made in the USA.

Review of Wild Ride All-Natural Beef Jerky, Hoppin Hickory, Hormone & Antibiotic Free, 4-Ounces (Pack of 6)

I love this stuff! Wild Ride Hoppin' Hickory (Hormone and Antibiotic Free) has NO nitrites and NO MSG. It is made with natural ingredients, which is about as healthy as you can get while still eating beef. It is also low in calories. An entire 4-ounce bag is only 200 calories, or 50 calories per serving, high in protein and low in fat. I'm watching my weight, and Wild Ride is a welcome addition to my balanced diet.

Essentially, it is sliced steak in a bag. An average piece is bite-size, about one inch square and about 1/8 inch thick. Keep in mind that Wild Ride is definitely NOT shoe-leather-tough like most jerky products, thus traditional beef jerky lovers may be put off by the tender quality of the meat. If you're looking for tough meat with the consistency of a radial tire, then buy something else. But if you want beef jerky that is chewy, tender, and flavorful, get this product.

I have only one complaint; about 1 in 5 bags have a few pieces containing gristle or sinew (the pieces don't break down completely when you chew them). While this is an inconvenience, the problem is still minor enough for me to give the product five stars based on overall taste and quality.

Hoppin' Hickory has a spicy and smoky flavor that is perfectly balanced and not too overpowering. MMmmmm! Yummy!
