I am super excited to try the
13 bags of jerky I got today from the Smokehouse Jerky Co., located in Hemet ,
CA . In addition to providing a premium product, their
mission has been to support others, build up new companies for themselves as
route owners and/or distributors. Their shared career expertise and joint
contribution to creating an even more productive corporate team mean that their
targets will be achieved and surpassed.
The owners Patti and Franco,
we're very generous to send so many different Jerky to try. And the best part
is one each of their many flavors, I received.
So how I will do it, is take
one strip of Jerky out of each bag. So let's get started. I will start from original
to the hottest flavor.
Smokehouse Jerky Co.'s, OriginalBrisket Beef Jerky Gluten free, is the first up. It's crafted from quality California brisket beef and refined with their old school
recipe. Its mild, smoky taste complements the lean meat of the jerky. This
delicious treat is great for people who enjoy the traditional beefy taste. Take
a slice and savor its rich and juicy flavor to your heart's content. If you
have any dietary concerns, this jerky, the original is gluten free. In every bite
you get the taste of a real brisket. The jerky is very tender, and it's very
easy to chew, you don't break your teeth on it for sure. Real down to home
taste, like a Sunday dinner in a jerky!
Next up is the Western BBQ
Recipe Gourmet Uncured Bacon Jerky, also a Gluten free product. When you eat
this jerky, you think back to the old west, sitting around a open bit BBQ, and
cowboys. You get the delicious taste of bacon, a slight Smokey flavor, and a
sweet taste all at the same time. Truly amazing, and would make a great treat
any time of the day. The texture is great, not real crisp like bacon, and
tastes like it came right off the grill. In fact the Jerky looks just like
bacon strips. The spice's that we're used to make the Western BBQ Recipe Jerky
is a real authentic flavor, the spice's perfectly balanced. Surely this jerky
would be anyone's favorite.
Now on to the Gourmet Uncured
Bacon Jerky also known as Old Fashion Maple. Again the Jerky is Gluten free.
This jerky looks like bacon strips as well, with the taste of maple syrup, and
honey. You get Smokey and sweet in every bite. The texture is chewy, nothing
overbearing. And if you love bacon, this would be the jerky for you. It is very
delicious in every bite. You can tell by the taste it was perfectly marinated,
and brings you back to a breakfast morning with the family.
We are now tasting the
Smokehouse Jerky Co., Gourmet Brisket Beef Jerky, garlic pepper. Now if I was
making a brisket at home I would be adding garlic to it. So that is the taste I
got from this, garlic and just the right amount, with a peppery taste. The
texture was again perfect, and the scent was very earthy. You get a slight
pungent back taste, with garlic chunks in each bite. But all done in a perfect
balance. If you are someone who loves garlic, then this jerky flavor will fit
the bill. The beef is lean, and it will take you home to the dinner table. It
is a taste that starts out subtle, and then the pepper and garlic come into
play, but must say, it's very enjoyable.
The next strip out the bag is
the Smokehouse Jerky Co., Gourmet Uncured Bacon Jerky, apple wood smoke style.
Now I must say, all the Jerky is delicious, so no worries. And the special
part about this jerky is that it is protein based, that is far from plain or
far from bland. You get the Smokey taste of the apple wood, the color of black
pepper, and the enormous taste of bacon! There is no taste of any artificial
junk in this jerky, or any of the above. You taste nothing but love in every
bite. If you we're cooking bacon outside on the grill with your apple wood, and
grabbed a slice off the grill, this is the taste in this jerky you get. I can't
describe it any plainer.
It's a really pretty awesome
jerky. A perfect snack to take and eat anytime, anyplace.
Now one of my favorite meals
to cook is Carne Asada, so to have it in a jerky, is exciting to me. This is
what I am trying now, the Gourmet Brisket Beef Jerky, carne asada. We all know
that carne asada is a Latin dish, and that is exactly what this jerky reminds
you of. It's a great jerky to grab a beer with and snack away. Each bite gives
you a hint of cilantro, and a hit of lime, perfect combo for the jerky. The
texture is not over chewy, the flavors Spanish inspired. Anyone looking for a
unique flavor in a jerky, this is the one. You also get the taste of fresh
jalapenos, which does give a slight heat. Over all the result in the
ingredients they used, are perfectly balanced. You get a strip of the jerky
that is soft and tender, easy to chew, the no signs of any fat from the
brisket.
Now if you are wondering how
in the world all of this jerky is getting tested, there's a family of four
helping me. So we are moving on to the Gourmet Brisket Beef Jerky, LemonPepper. I hope by now you are getting the pattern here. Jerky made from Brisket
or Bacon! Now this jerky from Smokehouse Jerky Co., is a combo of citrus,
spicy, and a little peppery. The spice blend is in perfect balance, and made
this jerky premium quality. But then again they all we're. Over all its what I
would call a combo of tanginess, and sweetly tart. Chewing it is just as fine
as the others, very moist, and does not stick to your teeth, or break them off
when taking a bite.
So now we will get into the
Smokehouse Jerky Co., more spicier flavors, that come with some HEAT!
The "Oh" that’s hot,
Gourmet Brisket Beef Jerky is the first of the heat flavor we will try. Now if
you like heat, this jerky will spice up your taste buds for sure. It gives you
a sweet, Smokey, spicy tingle to your palette. The heat kick comes a little
after, in wave form. You taste the spice from the cayenne peppers, some garlic,
even a taste of ginger. The heat all brings balance to the other ingredients.
So now on to the Gourmet
Brisket Beef Jerky, cracked black pepper jerky. Now this jerky is full blown
with the taste of black pepper flavorings. It's tangy, peppery of course, and
has cracklings of peppercorns in it. The texture is still soft to chew as all
the jerky's are. This also would go with a nice cold beer, sitting on the front
porch and snacking away.
Now for another peppery
tasting jerky, Smokehouse Jerky Co., included a bag of Gourmet Uncured Bacon
Jerky honey and pepper flavor. This is a wonderful combo of sweet and peppery
tasting jerky. Again it gives you the taste of bacon right from the hot grill.
There's the taste of honey as well. A very distinct flavor for sure. A real
treat for the taste buds. The pepper taste is bold, but the honey flavor is
what gives you the sweet balance. A very gourmet taste for sure. A delightful
taste in every bite.
Well we are slowly getting
hotter and hotter. We are now on to the Gourmet Brisket Beef Jerky, spicysweet. The heat for this jerky comes from jalapeno's. The taste, takes you to a
new dimension, for sure. Sweet, with heat! The same soft chew, with wonderful
flavorings. Imagine cooking your brisket, surrounded by jalapeno's and other
sweet and spicy flavors. This jerky is not only satisfying but could be very
addictive.
Well we are nearing the end,
and are now on the Gourmet Brisket Beef Jerky, ghost pepper. This should come
with a warning for novice folks, because it is made with real, yes real ghost
peppers. The heat is intense to say the least, and lingers on your tongue for a
bit. So if you like hot, this jerky will start you off in the right direction. It
is definitely hotter then cayenne, and will hurt your mouth, but in a
pleasingly way. It is still delicious, you don't lose that quality of the jerky
for sure.
Well the end of the bags,
ends with the flavor of Gourmet Brisket Beef Jerky, Carolina reaper. Pray for me now! Let me just say, right
through the bag you see the seeds. Now mind you the Carolina reaper pepper is the worlds hottest pepper, so sorry
Smokehouse Jerky Co., my bite is going to be very small. Along with the Carolina pepper, there is a addition of the original
flavorings, and it gives it a flaming from hell flavor. Eat it with caution for
sure. The taste is savage, throat burning, like a volcano going off in your
mouth. Make sure to have a glass of milk along with this jerky, and eat it in
tiny bits. Unless you can take the heat, then go for it. The jerky is still
moist and tender, the infusions are in perfect balance, and the taste is
outrageous, just be forewarned.
