I'm always looking for snacks that are healthy and delicious that can be enjoyed by the whole family. That's not always easy to do. One thing that everyone in my family loves is beef jerky. Not all beef jerky is created equal though. Some brands contain fillers and additives and even MSG! Others are extremely high in sodium which doesn't make it a good choice for anyone who is watching their blood pressure.
I recently came across Jerky John's Beef Jerky and was thrilled to be able to sample all four of his delicious flavors of jerky. Jerky John's beef jerky comes in Pacific Teriyaki, Cayenne Hot, American Original, and Black Pepper. Jerky John's beef jerky is made using only 100% USDA Top Round whole muscle beef, is 75% lower in sodium and contains NO MSG! Love it!
Jerky John's is the healthiest beef jerky choice because it contains no trans fats, no saturated fat and is low in calories, fat and cholesterol. It's something I can feel comfortable feeding the kids and my husband. It's even something I can enjoy myself because there is only one points plus in a one ounce piece of the Pacific Teriyaki flavor which is my all time favorite flavor!
When Jerky John's makes their beef jerky, the beef is sliced, marinated and dried to perfection. They don't inject the beef with anything at all which is something that some companies do to increase the yield from the beef. They inject it with additives (i.e. sugars, salts etc.) prior to the drying process to give the beef added weight. I love that they use only beef from the United States. I just don't trust food that comes from other countries for the most part.
Jerky John's donates a portion of their proceeds to the Folds of Honor Foundation. Folds of Honor is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization with a mission to empower deserving military families with educational support and opportunities. FHF provides post-secondary educational scholarships to the spouses and children of service members disabled or killed as a result of their military service to our great nation. I love supporting companies that give back!
Each package of beef jerky is four ounces and contains about four servings. The package is resealable so that if you manage to stop eating it before the whole bag is gone, you can reseal it and hide it from the children. Seriously... David13 is hovering over my desk like a hungry wolf, salivating wanting to know when he can have some more and can he have some for breakfast!
We really enjoyed all four of the flavors from Jerky Johns. David and my favorite was the Pacific Teriyaki flavor. Sarah17 tended to enjoy the spicier flavors of the Cayenne Hot and the Black Pepper and Marty went with the American Original. I love the big pieces of jerky in each bag. There are no tiny slivers or little pieces of jerky here. It makes the perfect snack because it requires no refrigeration, is easy to pack in a backpack or lunch bag and it's a great source of energy. I love knowing that Jerky John’s is the only USDA Approved Healthy Beef Jerky Brand!
