Good low carb snacks can be hard to find, but this grass-fed beef jerky is a winner!
If you’re anything like me, you’re a snacker. You just like the act of eating, of moving hand to mouth, of chewing and swallowing, and of hopefully experiencing wonderful flavor in the process. But if you’re on a low carb, gluten-free diet, appropriate snacks can be hard to come by. I am continually standing in the grocery store, turning over packages to read the labels and thinking “Geez, why is there so much sugar in this???”. Products that seem like they should be low carb and healthy often aren’t and it boggles the mind. Beef jerky has faked me out on a number of occasions but I keep standing there, checking out the packaging, thinking there must be some mistake.
A little while back, I did a review of some new-to-me low carb products I’d discovered at Natural Foods Expo East. One of those products was The New Primal Grass-Fed Beef Jerky. I had a chance to test-taste and also connect with The New Primal folks and I was impressed. Their original jerky comes in at only 2g per serving, and even their spicy jerky is only 4g. Compare that to the 7, 8, even 12 g of carbs in many similar products. I was also impressed by their dedication to using 100% grass-fed beef. This is a snack I can get behind!
And now you can too, as they want to give one of my readers a fun prize pack that contains 6 packs of the Original Jerky. So jump on in and enter for some yummy low carb snacking!
Do note that the jerky does contain gluten-free tamari.

Love jerky! During hunting season we usually make deer jerky. Since this year hunting has not been good for us, I’ve looked at premade and yes, the carb count is high on some. Look forward to trying New Primal brand.
Laura F. says
Yes, we love jerky!
Courtney says
I actually have never tried beef jerky — the concept was always weird to me, my ex loved it and i always called it “meat gum” 😛 but now that i’m eating a keto diet it would be a great snack to incorporate so maybe its time to try it!

Meat gum! Hahahaha, I love it!

Jerky is the perfect snack! Jack links and others have lots of preservatives and additives, so I refrain from buying, but I would love nice grass-fed jerky that’s natural! Om nom nom!
Cindi says
I am, but this would especially be for my husband. 😉
Tarryn says
My son loves it. My dad used to make it when I was browning up, we’d gobble it up as fast as he could make it. This brand looks like a step n the right direction to capture that delicious taste.
Tarryn says
Oops, that should be “growing up”

Sara O says
LOVE, Love, love Jerky!!
Chiemika says
I love beef jerky so much. One of the few high protein snacks I can eat.
Shelley says
I’m a lover of beef jerky and have even ventured out in making my own. It’s discouraging when you buy ready made mixes and the list of ingredients start with sugar and then a list of things you don’t recognize. I try to make my own mix to cure them in now.
It would be interesting to taste a good product that is out on the market, tho.
Carolyn says
I’ve wanted to try making my own but haven’t gotten around to it just yet!

I love jerky, it travels well and is easy to take along on road trips

Guess what: I have never had jerky before. I would LOVE to try it, but I can’t find jerky without added sugar!

I love jerky so much that I received a subscription to the jerky of the month club as a Christmas gift. Unfortunately, you’re right about the amount of sugar used in most, so I’ll have to be careful which ones I eat.

I havn’t had jerky in AGES, but simply love to start eating it again, especially this variety!

I’ve been a jerky addict for years!!! I have a really hard time finding jerky that isn’t loaded with a lot of “junk” (including sugar) that I don’t want to put into my body. I’d love to be able to check this jerky out and hopefully be able to buy it online. 😀

Maria D says
I love beef jerky! It would be awesome to win this.
I bought my dehydrator years ago and it came with a mix to use with ground meat. It was fun to make and quite tasty, but I no longer approve of all the ingredients.
Does anyone have a recipe they recommend?
Jen says
I love jerky!
Kate says
I love jerky, but my favorite is teriyaki flavor, which tends to be higher in carbs so I have to be careful 🙂
Wendy N says
would love to find some gluten free jersey that tastes good!!
Jeffree Itrich says
When I was growing up my mother made her own beef jerky. It was simply the best and spoiled me to commercial jerkys. I’ve yet to taste one as good as hers. But I’d be willing to give this one a try, especially if it’s sugar and gluten free!
patricia says
I love jerky. Low carb snack all the better!
penny says
love jerky!
Lori S. says
I do love jerky! Not spicy! 🙂 If I could find a LC terriyaki, I would be in LOVE. I also like it to be as natural as possible. 😀 Thanks for the giveaway!!!
Stella says
There were many times that just having a small bag of beef jerky in my purse, desk or wherever, saved me from indulging on something I’d later regret! I love beef jerky. Have never tasted grass fed but am so looking forward to it!
mary says
I would love to try this. I haven’t been able to find any jerky without a lot of nasty additives, sugar, etc. that I would eat, let along buy. Thanks for the giveaway.

I LOVE jerky – I could eat it all day every day

We love beef jerky and you gave me a great idea for a snack on our spring trip to Europe.
Caroline Gamble says
When I hiked my solo weeks on the AT, I quite literally survived on jerky (and, since I had pre-planned my entire anticipated five-month excursion nutrition, I had PLENTY waiting at home when injury derailed my trip).
I continue to gnaw on the meat crack nearly every day.
Carolyn says
Meat crack! LOL!
Bonnie Engel says
I love beef jerky and would especially love one that is gluten free without added sugars. It makes a great snack for me at work or to take in the car on trips. It sounds delicious!
Krickt says
I used to love jerky, but so many of them have soooooo much sugar, and soy sauce, which as we all know by now is half wheat! So I gave up on it. I’d love to find a jerky that didn’t have either!
k
Kim says
Jerky! It’s my go-to snack when I’m in a hurry and need something to hold me for a length of time.
Kae says
I love jerky and can not wait to try this!
Maria says
I love beef jerky. Many moons ago when I had my dehydrator I made my own. I remember as a kid we’d make it at home with the thinly sliced beef hanging on the clothes line under a full sun, and us kids shooing away the flies I’m feeling lucky on this one 🙂
David Holder says
Yes I am!
lettucelady says
I’d love to try this jerky. I’m a jerky fan, when it’s GOOD jerky.

Shannon says
You betcha I love jerky!
Debbie Jennings says
YES!! Love it….but the good stuff is out of my price range. Need to start making my own I guess…..but would adore the change to try the New Primal.

Madelyn says
I absolutely love jerky, especially spicy!
Isis says
I started buying grass-fed beef after going low-carb, and I won’t go back. It’s delicious. Grass-fed beef jerky has GOT to be excellent, too! And I really like the fact the carb count is decent; I don’t really eat jerky much because most of the commercial brands are too sugary.
Amy says
I absolutely love jerkey!
Serena says
Love beef jerky! Thanks for the chance to win some!
Jae says

Alex says
Love jerky! Fuel for the whole family 🙂

I <3 Beef jerky! Good memories of eating it with my dad growing up. If we ever asked for a candy bar or candy at a store or gas station, my dad would quickly tell us no. But if we asked for beef jerky, he always caved!
Pan says
Yes! I am always so amazed by how carby jerky usually is!
jennifer says

We are wild about jerky!

Susan Christy says
I like jerky – especially flavored jerky.
dina says
there’s so much crappy, sugary jerky out there. i’ve been following them on instagram & their stuff looks delish!

Because it’s so tasty and also, easy to carry with you when traveling or hiking.
John at Beef Jerky HQ says
How did you like the taste? We are going to be reviewing this jerky soon, but would love to hear your thoughts on the flavor.
Carolyn says
It’s very good, I think. It doesn’t have a particular flavour that stands out but it’s a good beefy, salty snack.
