Pepper Palace - Hot N' Sweet Pork StickThe pork used is guaranteed to be raised ethically with no antibiotics or added hormones. This pork is not guaranteed to have at least partial free range access to roam outside. As a result, the highest ingredient rating that can be awarded is a Very Good (9/10) rating.

Some healthy ingredients added are honey, spices, and garlic powder.

The artificial color red #40 or an equivalent is likely used in the collagen casing to lose a rating.

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

This pork stick does not qualify to have no sodium nitrite as sodium nitrite is used outright as a preservative to lose a rating. This pork stick does not qualify to have no MSG added as the highly processed, cheap flavor enhancer hydrolyzed soy protein is used to lose another rating.

Alright (6/10) – Ingredient Rating

Taste Review

PEPPER PALACE – HOT N’ SWEET PORK STICK

Written by guest jerky reviewer Paul Rekker

When I bite open the meat stick packaging I am met with no flavors. The meat stick looks pretty much like all other meat sticks, both in girth and hue.

When I bite into the meat stick, I am met with a myriad of flavors. I am tasting salt, moderate sweet, pepper, garlic, and some spice.

I am detecting more heat as I consume more of the meat stick, which is a good thing, and I am impressed with the collagen casing for this meat stick, it is as advertised. There is a solid “snap” to the collagen casing and a cavalcade of delectable flavors as the meat stick is consumed. A well-deserved 10/10.

Here is what Mark had to say about this Hot N’ Sweet pork stick flavor from Pepper palace: “Thanks Paul for the positive taste review. I agree with everything stated. While not hot tasting, there is a reasonable level of spiciness present. True for the sweetness also without going overboard. The texture does indeed have a decent ‘snap’. One aspect appreciated is a good level of acidity from the lactic acid. Overall, it has a well-balanced taste profile that tastes like more. A unanimous Excellent (10/10) taste rating will be awarded.”

This 1 ounce/28 gram bag of jerky sells for $2.99. That rates as an expensive price.

Excellent (10/10) – Taste Rating

Bag Review

This non-resealable plastic bag has everything imprinted on the front and nothing on the back. The logo has a smiling hot pepper holding a bottle of hot sauce.

A slogan printed on this bag is “The Planet’s #1 Hot Shop”. Some facts printed on this bag are “Smoked Meat Stick”, “Smoke Flavoring Added”, and “In Colored Casing”.

The only missing bag category is a nutrition facts table. To the credit of Pepper palace, a toll free phone number is provided for customer inquiries.
