About this item

Indiana Jerky Beef Original: the bag the rest of the range answers to

Indiana Jerky Beef Original is the classic beef jerky of the Indiana line, made from EU-sourced beef that is cured, lightly smoked and slow-dried to the original recipe. Soft enough to eat without a fight, savoury enough that one strip quietly becomes four, and the reference point every other Indiana flavour gets measured against.

Why this one

  • Start here: Peppered sharpens this recipe, Hot & Sweet sweetens it, Less Salt dials it back. Original is the middle of the map.
  • Soft-dried, not brittle: the strips bend instead of snapping, so there is none of the jaw ache cheap jerky inflicts.
  • High in protein, and nothing sweet added to the cure: the flavour comes from beef and smoke, not from syrup.
  • Sized for real life: a small bag for the coat pocket, a medium one for the week, a large one for a household that shares.

How Indiana makes it

Whole muscle beef is cured with salt and pepper, given a light smoke and then dried slowly rather than blasted, which is what keeps the slices pliable. Bags are sealed under a protective atmosphere, so nothing needs a fridge until you break the seal. After that Indiana asks you to finish the bag inside a couple of days, which has never been the hard part.

Taste and texture

Clean and beef-forward, with the smoke sitting a step behind the meat rather than in front of it. Pepper and garlic are there, but restrained. The chew starts firm, gives on the second bite and finishes dry and savoury, which is exactly why it is so easy to keep going. Nothing in it shouts, which is rather the point.

Who it is for

The glovebox on a long motorway run. The drawer you raid at four in the afternoon. The bag you hand to someone who says they have never really got jerky, because if this one does not land, none of them will.

Frequently asked

Which size should I buy? The 25 g bag is a single sitting. The 60 g is the everyday choice. The 90 g is for people who have learned that a small bag between two is a negotiation, not a snack.

Does it need refrigerating? No. It is shelf-stable until the bag is opened, which is why it survives rucksacks, desks and car doors so well.

There is a faint white film on a strip. Is that a problem? No. A pale surface film turns up on dried meat now and again and does not affect quality.

Delicious, way better than most popular brands

I tasted indiana beef jerky thanks to a sample that was sent to me so I knew I liked it. I struggle finding beef jerky that doesn't taste weird, the marinades are a hit or miss but this one is very simple and you can taste the beef. It is VERY HARD to chew so keep that in mind, like really hard to chew. Eating a piece is a whole ass workout, but I love it. In every 60g packet (I bought 30) there are tons bits containing nervous tissue that makes them inedible, which is why I took away one star. Otherwise all good, shipping was fast and the customer service is stellar.

Thank you for your detailed review!

We are glad that you enjoyed the product. It's very true that every brand is different and Indiana is actually categorised as 'hard jerky'. It shouldn't be so hard that it's tough to chew though. We'll forward your feedback to the producer so they can improve the product quality in the future.

We would be very happy to see you again on Jerky Store Europe.

Extremely hard

Thin, rectangular pieces that are very hard; probably the hardest meat I've tried in this shop.
Without exaggeration, you can cut your tongue on this if you're not careful.
It does have the highest amount of protein of the Indiana meat products, but I'd prefer any of the others over this.

Selv gratis er for dyrt

elendigt produkt. ekstremt tynde skiver som aligevel formår at være gummiagtige, senefyldte og ærgelige.
ville aldrig købe det, fik en pakke med som bonus ved sidste ordre men det er spild af energi at tygge på.

Buonissimo

Ero rimasta ancora disgustata di una carne essiccata presa in America!
Ma questa… questa crea dipendenza!!!!!
Mi é stata regalata come omaggio in un evento ed ora voglio un camion di questa carne
Poi non nausea
Nutre nei momenti di fame
Bustine pratiche
Da portare ovunque come uno snack che sia buono e riempa

Lekker, zo lang de datum goed is

Eerste zakje (los zonder grootverpakking) was erg lekker. Daarbij ook een doos vol gekocht maar die was een stuk taaier helaas.

Het smaakt wel natuurlijker en beter dan jack links :)

Different

It's different. Maybe I am used to the JackLink types so I found the Indiana Jerky quite tough and chewy

Best jerky brand

If you want your jerky to taste and feel like actual beef, this is the brand for you. Don't expect this jerky to taste overwhelmingly sweet like competitors' jerkies which contain sugar en masse. Indiana Jerky is quite chewy and tastes very meaty. I like it a lot.

Horrible

The snack is hard to chew, i had to spit out almost every new piece in the box because you cant chew it. I also bought a big pack and would like a refund

Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear that the quality of the product didn't meet your expectations.

We hope you give our assortment another chance, afterall there are many other products to try.
