Buffalo Bob’s – Mild Alligator Beef Stick

Monday, February 6, 2023 Leave a Comment

Buffalo Bob's - Mild Alligator Beef StickBuffalo Bob’s uses their conventional wisdom about meat snacks to make a very unconventional product. They think differently about traditional meat snacks. They create unique, savory protein jerky and meat snacks by taking the best quality wild game meats. Buffalo Bob’s has been around for at least 15 years. This Buffalo Bob’s alligator beef stick brand is distributed under the name of Zick’s Specialty Meats, Inc., and it is based out of Berrien Springs, Michigan.

The first review on Buffalo Bob’s will focus on a 1 ounce/28 gram bag of their Mild flavored alligator beef stick. This bag was purchased at a Meijer store in Marysville, Michigan.

Ingredient Review

Ingredients: Alligator, Beef, Salt, Flavorings, Citric Acid, Dextrose, Brown Sugar, Sodium Erythorbate, Sodium Nitrite.

Buffalo Bob's - Mild Alligator Beef StickThis alligator is sourced responsibly. Alligator is known to be high in protein and low in fat. 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.

The only healthy ingredients added is the vague term flavorings, which could include both healthy and healthy ingredients.

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

This meat stick does not qualify to have no sodium nitrite added, as sodium nitrite is used outright as a preservative along with sodium erythorbate. Admirably, this meat stick does qualify to have no MSG added.

Decent (7/10) – Ingredient Rating

Taste Review

BUFFALO BOB’S – MILD ALLIGATOR BEEF STICK

Written by guest jerky reviewer Paul Rekker

I have a very limited sample, but here goes. The meat stick (pepperette) has no odor. However, it was already out of the packaging. It looks like any other meat stick in color, shape, and thickness.

The first flavors I encounter are salt, pepper, garlic, slight onion, and natural beef. It is a delicious meat stick, but I can’t discern any “special” flavors, it being alligator and all. The meat stick is easy to chew and has a slight “snap” when you bite into the collagen casing.

I didn’t have much to sample, but what I did sample tasted spectacular. I have to give this meat stick a definitive 10/10. We have a real winner here. A very enthusiastic two thumbs up!!👍👍 Gentlemen?

Written by guest jerky reviewer Stéphane Leclerc

Buffalo Bob’s Alligator with Beef and Pork Stick – Mild is a tasty treat. A lot is going on with this meat stick, and the beef understandably alters the taste and texture of the gator. However, this solid meat stick has a great and well-balanced flavor profile.

Buffalo Bob’s Alligator with Beef and Pork Stick’s flavor and texture is distinctive and addictive. I love everything about this meat stick, the splash of acidity; the smokiness, the texture, and the depth of flavor provide an all-around tasty and wonderful experience.

I’ve appreciated this meat stick, and I would highly encourage and recommend anyone to try it. I rate this little wonder a 10/10 Taste Rating. Godspeed!

Here is what Mark had to say about this Mild alligator beef stick flavor from Buffalo Bob’s: “Thanks Stéphane and Paul for the authentic taste reviews. I too cannot find one issue other than not being able to detect the taste of alligator. Hard to fault Buffalo Bob’s there, where I believe that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) forces meat stick makers to mix in another meat.”

“I especially love the acidty present, which contributes greatly to the overall taste profile. True in that this texture has very little ‘snap’, but there is some. As an added bonus, there is little sweetness present. This alligator stick was a true treat to eat, being highly addictive. It is unanimous that a well-deserved Excellent (10/10) taste rating will be awarded. A very enthusiastic two thumbs up!!👍👍

This 1 ounce/28 gram bag was purchased for $1.99, which rates as a cheap price.

Excellent (10/10) – Taste Rating

Bag Review

This plastic bag has a label on the front and nothing on the back. There is an illustration of an alligator printed on the front. This bag is vacuum sealed, the best way to keep a product fresh tasting.

There are no slogans or facts printed on this bag.

Some missing bag categories are a blurb about this alligator stick or Buffalo Bob’s, a nutrition facts table, and the stick weight displayed in grams.
