Jack Link's Peppered Beef Jerky


Very hard. Very dry, but not flaky dry. The meat is still well bonded. Smells great. Tastes awesome. The spice is almost zilch on the tongue, but hits the throat mildly. Well peppered pieces! The most interesting part is, they taste of a particular variety of raw mango. And I remember experiencing this taste with another brand of peppered Jerky as well. Maybe it's the particular black pepper they use that renders this added smell.
Great pack of Jerky, they could do a little better on the texture.

Jack Link's Sriracha








































Spice instantly hits the back of your throat. Not over spicy. Can't say if it tastes just like the sriracha sauce because I've had it only once long long ago.
Meat quality is horribly inconsistent. The texture of each piece is poles apart.
Some very soft. Some very dry and flaky. Some of them have much gristle. Some extremely hard and chewy

Jack Link's Teriyaki Beef Jerky [Mega Pack]




The Mega Pack makes no difference to the taste I'm guessing. The last time I had reviewed this one, I vowed to review it while I'm actually biting into it!
So here, Awesome texture. The bite is perfect and delicious. The flavour of teriyaki is classic, and it gradually fills your mouth, and lasts for sometime once you've swallowed, especially the slight sour taste of teriyaki. The meat mostly tears easily, but for a few pieces. I had bite them and tear in full power. I've come to the end of the pack, which was wiped out pretty soon, and I have found gristle on just 2 occassions - isn't that awesome?
However, 1 of the pieces was over-dehydrated.

Jack Link's Teriyaki Beef Steak TENDER BITES





















Beef has a distinct smell. And it smells like I want to bite it. When I opened the pack I was reminded of some awesome Kerala beef dishes, the dry ones.
First bite experience - soft, fleshy, salty, teriyaki. Tender bites indeed. Very fleshy. Juicy in the sense that you salivate profusely. No gristle. Well almost, because I did find gristle in one piece. A wee bit extra salty though..

Jack Link's Teriyaki Beef Jerky



This one's a classic for me I think. Love the texture and taste. However sometimes it can turn hard, especially after a few days. But I've also noticed that if you seal it as airtight as possible, it becomes soft again. Wonder how. They do advise you to finish off in 3 days, but with such limited supply its almost impossible. Must refrigerate next time. 
Also, must write another review another time, when I'm devouring it. Out of Stock right now!
