Captain Jake’s Jerky – Korean Sesame Beef Jerky (Recipe #1)

Friday, August 14, 2015 Leave a Comment

Captain Jake's Jerky - Korean Sesame Beef JerkyNote: For a more current taste review on a tweaked bag design and ingredient list, open up Captain Jake’s – Korean Sesame Beef Jerky (Recipe #2).

The next review on Captain Jake’s Jerky will be on a 3 ounce/85 gram bag of their Korean Sesame flavored beef jerky. This flavor is described as having all the characteristics of Korean cuisine with quality beef, full flavor of the soy sauce, sweetness from honey, texture of sesame seeds, and a slight heat finish.

On July 17/2015, this Korean Sesame flavor received a second place award at the World Hot Sauce, BBQ and Extreme Food Awards competition, in the “Teriyaki Flavored” division. This jerky was kindly submitted for review by one of the co-founders, Scott Jacobson.

The co-owners Scott Jacobson and Greg Giles launched the Captain Jake’s Jerky brand name in October 2014. This jerky is distributed under the name of Captain Jake’s Jerky, LLC. They are based out of Reynoldsburg, Ohio. Greg’s experience is accounting, food service, and small business. Scott works in the media business, which appears to be a good combination of skills.

Ingredient Review

Ingredients: Beef, Soy Sauce (Water, Wheat, Soybeans, Salt, Latic Acid, Sodium Benzoate: Less than 1/10 of 1% as a preservative), Brown Sugar, Sesame Seed Oil, Honey Granules, Onion Powder, Crushed Garlic, Black Pepper, Sesame Seeds, Celery Powder, Habanero Chili Powder.    Allergen Warnings: Soy, Wheat, Sesame

Captain Jake's Jerky - Korean Sesame Beef Jerky100% certified American-raised Black Angus beef is used in this jerky. The Angus breed of cattle is known to have a good amount of natural marbling. The cattle may or may not have been administered growth hormones or additional antibiotics, there are no guarantees.

Captain Jake's Jerky - Korean Sesame Beef JerkyThe liquid marinade is comprised of soy sauce and healthy sesame seed oil. There is also healthy sesame seeds used.

Honey granules is basically honey in a small pellet form. If the honey is not overly processed, it can be healthy if eaten in moderation. The heat in this flavor comes from habanero chili powder, which is known to be healthy. There are other healthy ingredients such as onion powder, crushed garlic, and black pepper.

There is no nutrition facts table provided. As a result, the exact sugar and salt levels are unknown.

This jerky does qualify to contain no sodium nitrite, or any other similar unhealthy preservatives. Instead, apart from salt, celery powder is the main preservative, with its naturally occurring nitrates. Admirably, this jerky also qualifies to have no MSG added.

Good (8/10) – Ingredient Rating

Taste Review

Note: For a more current taste review on a tweaked bag design and ingredient list, open up Captain Jake’s – Korean Sesame Beef Jerky (Recipe #2).

These strips of jerky are small to medium in size, and sliced to a medium thickness. It has a great texture, where it’s not too dry or too soft and tender. Just about a perfect texture. There are no visible signs of fat, and handling this jerky leaves almost no oily residue on your fingers.

The first flavor detected is a fairly strong soy flavor. There is a noticeable sesame flavor that thankfully does not go overboard. As advertised, there is some spiciness to this flavor. The level of heat is light to mild depending on your tolerance for heat.

There is a favorable mild taste combination of garlic and onion. This flavor is mildly sweet, where the honey level is light. There is a good deal of great tasting natural beef flavor from the Black Angus beef. Overall, a very tasty and interesting flavor.

A 3 ounce/84 gram bag sells online for $7.89. That works out to 2.66 an ounce, which works out to be an expensive price. This jerky is recommended as worth your money for people who enjoy a Korean based flavor, this jerky is a treat to eat.

Very Good (9/10) – Taste Rating

Bag Review

This is a plain, clear, resealable plastic bag. There is a label affixed to the front, and nothing on the back. A small sticker stating “Black Angus” is on the front also.

The Captain Jake’s Jerky logo has an anchor in the middle. There are no slogans or facts printed on this bag.

There are some missing bag categories such as a best before date, and no nutrition facts table. There is no blurb printed about Captain Jake’s Jerky, or this flavor. Granted there is no room.

Alright (6/10) – Bag Rating
