In 2012, I made an online purchase for the Holy Cow! Kosher brand with this 2.12 ounce/60.1 gram bag of teriyaki flavored beef jerky. The brand name is Holy Cow! Kosher. Kosher beef is used, meaning the food is allowed for consumption under Jewish dietary guidelines. The aim is for a Rabbi to slaughter the animal, limiting the amount of pain the animal will endure.

In 2010, I bought this barbecue flavored bag of Blackbeard’s beef jerky at a convenience store just off I380 in Mount Pocono, Pennsylvania. It is a fairly common sight to see Blackbeard’s jerky for sale in Pennsylvania. For whatever reason, I have only seen the 1.5 ounce/42 grams for sale in stores, but they do sell their jerky in larger bags.

In 2010, I purchased this 3.5 ounce/99 gram original flavored bag of Arizona Jack’s beef jerky while visiting Daytona Beach, Florida, at a grocery store.

This review is for duck magret, made by La Maison Du Gibier Inc. Magret means the cut of meat is from a breast of duck. La Maison Du Gibier translated to English means “The House of Game”. They are located in Charlesbourg, near Quebec City, Quebec, Canada.
Their web site is all in French, which makes it challenging to find information, but something like Google translate does a decent job. This business started in 1982, where they specialize in big game, small game and specialty meats. Adept at hunting, Jean-Marie Rondeau came up Read More

Eventually he patented a tenderization process, which can only be found in Wild Ride beef jerky. This tenderization process allows the jerky to reconstitute in water very quickly. This jerky is advertised as Cowboy Strips, which offers a thick piece of jerky that is tender to chew, and packed with flavor. Read More
