Soo Jerky – Satay Beef Jerky (Recipe #1)

Sunday, July 21, 2019 Leave a Comment

Soo Jerky - Satay Beef Jerky (Recipe #1)Note: For a more current taste review on a tweaked bag design and ingredient list open up Soo Jerky – Satay Beef Jerky (Recipe #2).

Soo Jerky was founded in Vancouver, British Columbia, by married couple Phillip and Soo Wong back in 1985 with a 1,400 sq. ft facility. Today, they now use a 10,000 sq. ft, facility specializing in Singaporean and Malaysian-style beef, salmon and pork jerky. There is a heavy presence of Asians in Vancouver, British Columbia, where this Soo Jerky brand of jerky really became popular in Chinatown. Currently, they sell over 40 different types of meat snacks. Soo Jerky sell this jerky to other Canadian provinces, including some select American cities. This Soo Jerky brand name is distributed by Soo Singapore Jerky Ltd., and they are based out of Richmond, British Columbia, Canada.

The next review on Soo Jerky will focus on a 4 ounce/113 gram bag of their satay flavored beef jerky. This bag was purchased at an Oceans store in Brampton, Ontario, Canada back in 2012.

Ingredient Review

Ingredients: Beef, Sugar, Salt, Spices, Paprika, Ground Chili, Monosodium Glutamate, Sodium Nitrite.

Soo Jerky - Satay Beef Jerky (Recipe #1)The beef used is not guaranteed to be free of growth hormones or additional antibiotics. Also, the beef is not guaranteed to have at least partial free range access to graze on grass. As a result, the highest ingredient rating that can be awarded is a Good (8/10) rating.

There is no liquid marinade used here, which can be referred to as a dry rub or old style jerky.

There are some healthy ingredients added such as spices, paprika, and ground chili.

The sugar level is extremely high at around 12 grams of sugar per 30 grams of jerky to lose a rating. Our preference is 3 grams of sugar or less per 28 grams of jerky. The salt level is high at 430mg of salt per 30 grams of jerky to lose another rating. Our preference is 350mg of salt or less per 28 grams of jerky.

This jerky is not sodium nitrite free, as sodium nitrite is used outright to lose a rating. This jerky is also not MSG free, where MSG is used outright to lose another rating.

Fair (4/10) – Ingredient Rating

Taste Review

Note: For a more current taste review on a tweaked bag design and ingredient list open up Soo Jerky – Satay Beef Jerky (Recipe #2).

Unfortunately, I have scant taste notes for this Satay flavor. I do remember being disappointed, and totally off put by the high level of sweetness. There was also zero resemblance to the taste of peanuts. This is an acquired taste, not for everybody.

This 4 ounce/113 gram bag was purchased for $5.49, which works out to $1.37 an ounce. That rates as a cheap price back in 2012.

Fair (4/10) – Taste Rating

Bag Review

This resealable plastic bag has most things printed directly on the bag itself, including the back and front. There is one label affixed to the front. There are high resolution pictures displayed both on the front and back.

There are no slogans printed on this bag. Some facts printed on this bag are “Ready To Eat”, and “Product of Canada”.

The only missing bag category is soy and wheat allergen alerts. There is a good blurb printed on back about Soo Jerky. As per Canadian law, there are French translations provided. Several Chinese translations are provided also.
