Cave people from the Paleolithic era would have eaten: 100% grass-fed beef, vegetables, fruit, seeds, nuts, herbs, and spices. Stoney Point Inc. kept this in mind to get you back in touch with our ancient ancestors. Paleo Beef Jerky is distributed under the name of Stoney Point Inc., and they are located in Littlestown, Pennsylvania.

Ingredient Review
Ingredients: Beef, Sea Salt, Honey, Black Pepper, Paprika, Chili Flakes, Onion Powder.
The beef used is ethically raised, meaning it is guaranteed to be free of growth hormones and additional antibiotics. The cattle have at least partial free range access to roam about and graze on grass the way nature intended. As a result, the highest ingredient rating awarded is a Very Good (9/10) rating.
The liquid marinade is comprised of only healthy honey.
Some healthy ingredients are added such as black pepper, paprika, chili flakes, and onion powder.
The sugar level is adequate at 2 grams of sugar per 28 grams of jerky. The salt level is acceptable at 350mg of salt per 28 grams.
This jerky qualifies to have no sodium nitrite, or any other similar unhealthy preservative added. Admirably, this jerky does qualify to have no MSG added.

Taste Review
PALEO BEEF JERKY – ORIGINAL BEEF JERKY
Written by guest jerky reviewer Paul Rekker
When I open the bag, I am met with a myriad of scents, including sweet (honey), juice (not sure why), I believe I am smelling the paprika, if I didn’t have the ingredient list in front of me, it would have been the “mystery” ingredient and natural beef. The pieces of jerky are relatively small in size, and they are sliced rather thin as well. The jerky is soft(ish) and dry, and it leaves no oily residue on your fingers.
The first flavors I encounter are salt, at a delectable level, sweet, but not too sweet, pepper, garlic, onion, I think I am detecting the paprika flavor, natural beef, and some heat as well, at a very favorable level. Not too hot, but still hot enough to pique my interest. You can see the chili flakes on the jerky.
I have to say, this is a delicious blend of various ingredients, no one ingredient taking center stage, just a nice, well-balanced mixture of tasty flavors. It’s only at the precipice of hitting the “Wow!!” factor, but possibly falling just a tad shy. Mind you, I have almost 3 oz of this jerky, so I will perhaps revisit this review later if things change.
The heat level is increasing as I consume more pieces, I believe I’ll readdress it right now. With no complaints, and an unexpected decent level of heat, I will award this flavor a 10/10, or a high 9/10, I am easily swayable either way here. But two thumbs skyward for this tasty treat. Gentlemen?
Here is what Mark had to say about this original beef jerky flavor from Paleo Beef Jerky: “Thanks Paul for the great taste review. It is hard to disagree with anything you mentioned. I was quite impressed with this paleo jerky, with a focus on the natural beef flavor. Some strips have a noticeable amount of fat that accentuates the natural beef flavor in a special way.
Almost every time we review a jerky advertised as paleo, it contains paprika. No different here with the paprika, which is a welcome change with the absence of soy sauce. Add in the onion, garlic, black pepper, honey, and chili flakes, you get a well-balanced flavor that tastes wholesome.”
Due to COVID-19, we are down to just Paul and me for this review. I cannot think of a single issue with this jerky. With myself at a 10 taste rating and Paul at a solid 9 rating, possibly a 10, this paleo jerky earns a well-deserved Excellent (10/10) taste rating.
This 2.85 ounce/80.8 gram bag of jerky sells for $7.99, which works out to $2.80 an ounce. That rates at an average price.

Bag Review
This white-colored resealable has everything printed directly to the bag itself on both sides. There are no labels attached. There are high resolution pictures of beef, garlic, chili pepper, and onions.
There is no slogan printed on this bag. Some facts printed on this bag are “Made in USA”, and “Keto Approved”.
All bag categories are covered with this bag. There is an excellent blurb printed on the back about paleo jerky. You are encouraged to follow them on Facebook. Commendably, a phone number is provided for customer inquiries.
