Review of Smithers Beef Broth Concentrate, 32-Ounce Bottle (Pack of 2)

Typical beef-base liquid concentrate but nice all the same.Use it like Julia uses wine; especially if you're a fan of savory stews and similar hearty concoctions.Don't bother with precise measurements; a good dollop or two and you're good to go.Remember to eliminate additional salt if you're using this product.It comes as a two-pack; plenty to get you through the fall and winter burguignon season.

Review of Hormel Compleats Beef Pot Roast with Potatoes & Carrots, 10-Ounce Units Microwavable Bowls (Pack of 6)

Hormel Compleats Beef Pot Roast with Potatoes & Carrots is very tasty, has meat, potatoes, and carrots in good quantity and proportions.There's much more gravy tban necessary in this meal.There is an unreasonably large amount of salt in this meal.Don't have one of these in a day you'll be eating other salty food.

I quite like this meal, but I do worry at how salty it is.

For health reasons I probably won't buy this particular Hormel meal agsin.

Review of Le Gout Beef Flavored Soup Base, 16-Ounce Tubs (Pack of 12)

To be honest since I am a home I may not order a pack of twelve of these, but I do buy this brand at my local butcher shop.It's absolutely rich, beefy and wonderful for au jus too. Really close to homeade and much, much better than boullion products. Recommended!

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!

Product Description
