Maple Bacon ingredients: Uncured bacon, pork, water, salt, turbinado sugar, celery powder, lactic acid start culture (not from milk), brown sugar, maple syrup, honey, water
@amgaweda Iāve never had jerky and donāt intend to try it so Iām obviously not an expert but it does seem expensive. Isnāt this the kind of thing that is a buck or two next to the register at the convenience store?
@amgaweda@OnionSoup A buck or two? Where the hell do you see that kinda pricing, because I want to move there. Shitās usually in the $4-5 range for 3oz.
@amgaweda@OnionSoup@slightlyevolved This is a 4 back for $18. 18/4=4.50 so this is the $4-5 dollar range. Booooo! If itās usually this price, howās it a deal?
My stomach has decreed that I buy this. (Didnāt help that I was already hungry.) Probably my fastest ever Meh order. Hell, probably the first time I didnāt wait until morning / afternoon / evening.
@troy my previous experience with bacon jerky was pretty bad, so that oneās a toughie for me. If a sample of sriracha bacon jerky finds its way into my box to convince me itās so great, maybe Iāll buy it next go round.
I went for peppered and mesquite BBQ this time. Even though I bring everything to the table on this deal you can still be my indented-watchful-partner.
I hope my mail person actually delivers this. I was expecting a couple of packages today from an amazoning place. I watched the mailman go by. He even saw me standing at my front door. But I got a notice today saying my package couldnāt be delivered because they couldnāt get on the porch thatās BS and I took pictures. Iām probably not going to get it. Because he is very large and I had (2) 18 packs of full size candy bars in that package for someone that loves chocolate. I order stuff and get packages all the time from nobody else including the *sps has ever before had trouble getting on my porch. The lazy $()&74(.
@fairchild521 That sounds like a fairly large package for the mailman to deliver. I hear you though. I lose my mind when I get one of those emails saying delivery was attemptted when I know I was there. I actually changed my address on Amazon to include āleave packages on enclosed porch.ā
Iām probably not going to get it. Because he is very large and I had (2) 18 packs of full size candy bars in that package for someone that loves chocolate.
Necessary detail? I mean, judge the mailman all you want for being a lazy ass as observed, but assuming just because heās very large that heās going to use his fat sense to ascertain that your package from Amazon has candy bars may be a little much. If heās truly lazy, no way heās searching Amazon packages for your yards of Snickers. Especially when there are more delicious treats that are easy to spot.
@djslack he isnāt fat. He is large. Tall and big. But not fat. I used to have trouble with him delivering packages of mine to another lady 3 streets over. Luckily she would bring them to me instead of keeping them. Ok
Well, Iām sure theyāre wonderful, but we donāt do the meat thing and have a policy against any food product with the term āWickedā or the use of the plural Z. So Meh. enjoy!

I got 2 orders of the pepper last time. Holy hell it was good. But geez we blew through those tiny packages in about 2 weeks. I hid the last package just to keep it from being inhaled. About 2 weeks ago while I was gone, the husband went scavenging through the junk cabinet and found it. I came home to a jerky husk. Lol. Itās good stuff. Def worth the insane price.
This is really good jerky. I bought the original peppered in September and it was great to throw in my daughterās softball bag on game day. The whole team loved it. I tend to make my own but life is busy, so having it just show up is a plus In for two (8?). Stocking stuffed!
@cranky1950 The wild caught tuna at Wegmans is $28 a pound. Itās great, but I still have to prepare it. Those things at 7-11 that roll around on metal heaters sure are cheap. I bet only smart people shop there. #protip
Iām eating low carb and have had to stay away from every kind of jerky Iāve seen because they all have 7+ carbs per serving. This is the first Iāve seen that only has 1 carb. Very temptingā¦in fact, in for the mesquite and pepperedā¦
/giphy heady-earthy-temper
Oh, and Meh, the next time you want to use my likeness in your advertising copy, throw me some shine with some fancy italics or something. Heckā¦ Iād even settle for some old school <blink>
Also lamenting the oversight of a variety pack. Soā¦ we recruit four forum friends to form a Mehrican Jerk Exchange, each buy a different flavor pack, then mail one to everyone else in their circle? Sounds like a lot of work. And postage. :sigh:
Is it that youāre paying for superior quality than other brands? I ask because you can get 16oz for $15 on Amazon. Thatās more jerky for less moneyzzzzz. Itād even be somewhat justifiable if you got variety, but nope. Thatās 11oz or less for $18? This isnāt meh as much as why?
Tbh, if meh sold the smart badges again, I would buy one. Would get a laugh out of my manager, and he has enough on his plate that he could use something amusing in his day.
Looks like all flavors are still available. I just purchased 3 of 'em. BBQ and Black Peppered drop-ship to son-in-law. Volcanic Jalapeno for a nephew, he grows and eats a variety of hot peppers; should love this. Jerky is what you take along on hunting trips. Dadās Venison Jerky was great. But not the Elk batch, the meat is too stringy, flavor too bold. Any-hoo, order away, all flavors were still available a moment ago !
@jst1ofknd Mine might finally show up tomorrow (along with my IRK) if FedEx is to be believed. We shall see. I bought them for my husband since I donāt really like jerky very much and Iām pretty sure heās forgotten about it just like I forgot about the tire chains he had me order from woot on 12/6 that still arenāt here either.
ĀÆ\_(ć)_/ĀÆ
Hmmm, Meh I know shipping is not your specialty, especially quick shipping but normally your delivery window is reliable. Unfortunately, the jerky is a week late, and now I am not home for a week and its supposed to be sitting in my mailbox right now. I sure hope the bastard squirrels are enjoying the jerky because I am not.
Second time ordering this and Iām rather disappointed this time (and disappointed that I bought 8 bags). The jerky (original peppered) is WAY over done this time and is crumbly not chewy. The flavor is good but there is aā¦ best way I can describe it is āpastyā residue while eating it. We are only into bag 2 but this stuff 1) is nothing like the last round 2) is way over priced for the quality received and 3) is actually almost off putting with the mouthfeel. Iām crossing my fingers that the rest of the bags get better, but for nowā¦ there wonāt be a third buy. #meh
The Maple Bacon was much sweeter than I expected. It really is a meat-candy. Once I viewed it like that, it was good.
The BBQ Mesquite was OK, but personally I donāt think it was worth the premium.

@lichme Sorry, this deal contains 5 unique items and Iām not sure which one you want. You can review how to pick one, or just try ordering from the checkout page.
@lichme You single-handedly defeated their system. Beat them at their own game. Check-mate and shit.
@lichme Mmmmm. Carp. Carptastic.
Oh come on. If there was a variety pack I wouldāve bit, but not four of one flavor. Booooo.
Do Jewish Mehtizens like their jerky uncut?
@shahnm

@shahnm my understanding is that everyone prefers uncut.
On the site itās 30$ without a subscription if you want these. Another hard pass.
This shit again? ā¦ Better than Fidget Spinners, I guess. Thatāll probably be tomorrow.
@Aristocracy fidget spinners probably taste better.
Iām a huge jerky fan, but passing, Meh
@Stallion this is really good jerky. Iām not balking at the price the second go round.
My stomach has decreed that I buy this. (Didnāt help that I was already hungry.) Probably my fastest ever Meh order. Hell, probably the first time I didnāt wait until morning / afternoon / evening.

Jeezy peezy. Iāll hold out for Bluetooth Siracha Bacon Fidget Spinners.
25% off of MSRP? Meh.
@ciabelle We had it wrong; itās actually 29.96 for 4. So 40%!
Dammit. That fucking asterisk footnote. I gotta bring both the good ideas and the money? What are you bringing to the table, Meh?
Off to decide what flavors to buy, I guess.
Still donāt think I can bring myself to purchase bacon jerky, but Sriracha is good stuff.
@djslack Do it. Sriracha bacon. Its the best.
@troy my previous experience with bacon jerky was pretty bad, so that oneās a toughie for me. If a sample of sriracha bacon jerky finds its way into my box to convince me itās so great, maybe Iāll buy it next go round.

Mmm, $46/lb for jerky? No thanks, I can make incredible, and healthy, beef jerky at home for about $8/lb. Meanwhile, hereās a yummy flavor:

Sometimes these change but I recall these being the original stated shipping dates.
Itās here! Got the Volcanic Jalapeno and BBQ Mesquite Beef.
Did not disappoint. The Volcanic Jalapeno is just a touch too hot for me. I just need to eat in small doses.
Good news is with it being so hot, I donāt need to share.

The Maple Bacon was much sweeter than I expected. It really is a meat-candy. Once I viewed it like that, it was good.
The BBQ Mesquite was OK, but personally I donāt think it was worth the premium.
@zachdecker I was the opposite. I liked the bbq best. The maple bacon didnāt have enough flavor for me or I got a bag bag.
