Divine Bovine's Gourmet Beef Jerky (Original Flavor) is tasty. Unlike the other brands reviewed to date, this jerky is soft. Divine Bovine's Gourmet Beef Jerky is made from beef brisket, which obviously contributes to the texture. It's not too salty, but has a flavor of soy sauce that two of our four reviewers found odd...not bad, just different. Our 4.0 ounce bag was purchased at Stater Brothers Supermarket in Southern California for $5.99. This jerky appears to be a local or regional brand. So far, it's our highest rated jerky! You might want to give it a shot. I'm sure you can find them online if the brand isn't sold in your area.
Recap: Soft, good (but different) flavor. 3.5/5 Stars

So, Jack Link's is a big sponsor of the World Series of Poker...but how's the jerky? Well, our tasters liked it...to an extent. Four out of five thought it had a good beefy taste, but that it was somewhat chewy (maybe even fatty). Hmmm...ratings on this one were unusual. Two reviewers have it two stars and two gave it four stars. The last reviewer split it down the middle with three stars. Not a bad jerky, and it's available everywhere! We paid $4.49 for a 3.25 ounce bag at Stater Brothers Market in Southern California.

Recap: Good flavor, but chewy. 3/5 Stars

Our first review! To get things started, we picked up a bag of New Style (whatever that means) Pemmican Premium Cut Beef Jerky. While the flavor wasn't awful, the consistency was. Four of five reviewers noted the jerky was "dry" or "tough". One stated the smell was reminiscent of dog food. Hmmm...once you get past the dry texture (make sure you have a nice cool drink to wash it down), the taste isn't so bad. Although, it isn't the best.
We paid $4.49 for a 3.25 ounce bag at Stater Brothers Market in Southern California...definitely not a best bet. We'll keep searching!

Recap: Dry, Dry, Dry. 2/5 Stars
