EPIC Provisions Wagyu Beef Steak Strips, Gluten-Free, 20 ct, 16 oz

I ordered both the wagyu beef and the venison . Just received them today. I’ve only tried the wagyu beef so far and I’m very impressed. It’s not overly salty and more like a dried hamburger beef. Not to dry to need a flosser like other Jerky’s. The venison is way to salty I definitely prefer the Wagyu

I hate beef jerky, it's spicy and got a weird texture. This wagyu jerky though is fantastic. The texture and flavor is good. Like others state though, I do notice an inconsistency in the jerky. Not just package to package but even within the same package itself. Some of them were more dry, some of them were more oily. I don't mind oily because I'll just use a napkin to dab at it. It makes it more moist. None of them were TOO dry or TOO oily for me, though. It was just a mildly noticeable difference. I have these in the office for when I feel I need something salty / meaty during the day.

First of all, this isn't really beef jerky and nowhere do they state that it is. Simply put, it is not your typical beef jerky. I don't know how these are processed because there are not nitrates, nitrites, or even celery powder - which are the ingredients used for curing meat. Yes, these are ground and formed meat strips, just as it says on the box and on each individual strip wrapper. These lack all the extra preservatives and additives that other strips and jerkys have. And although some of the other meats that they have are flavored with cranberry, apple, or bacon, these don't have much flavoring at all. Just added honey, which keeps it from being totally vile. When I first opened the package, the scent was that of old time (not ancient) jerky. The way jerky looked and tasted in the 70s. But the flavor is really meaty/bloody tasting, with little hint of honey that makes it palatable. I'm not hating on this, it's rather not really too bad... just gotta get used to that bloody raw meaty taste. I've had their beef/bacon/cranberry bars and those were not edible. They were totally disgusting. Maybe it's because these are thinner and more like jerky (you get less of a mouthful) that I find them easier to swallow. I'v had quite a bit of their "bacon" bars (note, they are bars, not strips), and really wish they'd make the bacon bars thin like these strips as well. Although I like the bacon best, sometimes it's just too much... it's like spam but not as tasty. The texture of these is much better. Bottom line, if you expect these to taste like O'berto stips, then don't get them. If you expect something that tastes like a caveman's dinner, then this is it.

The taste was strange and just not good to me AT ALL!!! It was packaged well, fresh and very tender, though. This is also the first time I’ve eaten Waygu—-was told it was an extremely great and expensive meat....but I didn’t care for it one bit. However, my dogs are extremely happy with it and love the taste. Definitely the most expensive dog treats I’ve ever purchased!!

Flavorful, spices are spot-on. Moist and soft! No struggling to rip off a piece, no stress on your teeth! Already on my Buy Again list from Amazon, as the price is the lowest I've seen!

No. These are not terrible tasting; they just have no taste. About a third of the product had unsealed packages that were identified by the meat stick being a darker color. For the price, it is not even close to being worthy of purchasing.

My husband and I always make sure to have these on hand. I have them on subscription so we never run out. They taste really good, they are on the tougher side, so not super moist to bite into, but the seasonings are great and doesn't contain citric acid or other fillers. Friendly for AIP diets if you can tolerate black pepper. Contains honey also. Really great recipe and they're great to keep in your bag or lunchbox. My husband brings them to work for an easy snack also. Even my kids ask if they can have them from time to time because they love them, but these are mommy and daddy's treats!! Lol!

Excellent meat stick.
