This is my review of the new Cold Crafted Loaded Pepper Jack Beef Sticks by Jack Link’s which I enjoyed during a long drive home.
Try them yourself:
Not even the pouring rain could ruin my tasting of these premium beef snacks. At $1.00/ounce of cheese stuffed beef stick, this was somewhat of a gamble of my hard-earned money. I needed a delicious, meaty snack to satisfy my hunger. I want you to watch this review video to see what I thought about these cheese-filled beef sticks.
***Spoilers***
These are unique because of the “keep refrigerated” advisory printed on the label. And I did find these in the open cooled at a Circle K. These were dense, salty, cheesy and delicious!
While I found my 4oz. pack of these at a Circle K gas station, I see online you can buy them from walmart, sam’s club, circle k and the Jack Link’s official website.
Apparently the decision to make these refrigerated beef stick snacks was motivated by Jack Link wanting to make these tasty treats the old way, the “right” way. The meaty protein portion of these beef sticks are mad with 100% beef as well as Jack Link’s original blend of spices before being hardwood smoked for 6 hours. I think most of us can agree that cheese goes great with meat. That’s especially true of the wonderful pairing of cheese with beef. If you’re a big fan of tasty cheese to go with your meat stick, you’re probably going to want your cheese to come from Wisconsin. That’s where the cheese comes from for these beef stick snacks. Hunks of real Wisconsin cheese are infused in these 100% beef sticks. If you didn’t know better, you might think these cold crafted beef sticks (stuffed with pepper jack cheese) came from the local butcher your friend trusts. Each serving has a generous 9 grams of protein. That might make you feel a little bit better about the high amount of fat and sodium in these beef stick snacks.
