The Perfect Costco Find If You Like Jerky Flavor But Hate The Dryness
By Stacie Adams
Even the best beef jerky will have a dry, chewy, leather-like texture, which is why some people stay far away from it, even if they love intense meaty flavors.
If you fall into this category, your dream may be answered by a certain Costco product that offers big, bold flavors without the toughness associated with jerky.
Costco's Kirkland Signature brand Steak Strips come in a 12-ounce package and retail for $11.99.
This product is sourced from premium cuts of beef, which are imbued with a smokiness to enhance flavor, and they are gluten-free, 98% fat-free, and ready to eat.
The steak strips are soft and have a high moisture content, making them a far cry from the tough and chewy jerky you may be accustomed to.
Many commenters on the r/Costco subreddit described the jerky as soft and flavorful, claiming they can easily consume an entire bag in a single sitting.
The downside is that they don't last as long as conventional jerky, due to the high moisture content. To make them last longer, you can seal them and keep them in the freezer.
