Their ranches were the first in the U.S. to have a non-hormone certified beef herd. Golden Valley Natural owns and operates its own USDA-inspected, state-of-the-art processing plant in Idaho Falls, and has been in the meat-processing business for more than 35 years. In the words of Roger H. Ball, owner and president of Golden Valley Natural: "Golden Valley Natural Beef comes from cattle that are raised in the lush green pastures and mountains of Idaho. These cattle are accustomed to crisp, clean air and wide-open spaces as nature intended. Golden Valley Natural Beef guarantees that all animals are treated humanely and have never received artificial hormones or antibiotics. I believe in giving cattle a healthy, comfortable environment from birth. I have never used artificial hormones in my cattle, and I never will!" | | | Features: | |

 The Sweet StuffSep 08, 2006
By Anonymous
In so many ways, this is a really good jerky: low in fat from the buffalo, a nicely thick natural slab cut, slightly moist so that it has a nice bite without the toughness of leather, and a sufficiently peppery kick from a nice black pepper crust. Plus the assurance of no hormones, preservatives, or msg as shouted on the big green sticker on the package. The quality is there, no doubt.
So what's wrong with it? It's right there, second on the list of ingredients -- SUGAR! This jerky is too sweet! I ordered the Peppered flavor and I was expecting a savory treat, a nice snack for the afternoons. Instead, this stuff is as sweet as maple syrup and not really what I wanted.
Too bad, as I'm now stuck with 8 of these packages. For now, I'm going back to the SnackMasters brand. The quality is not as good but the flavor is many times better.

 Sugar in Beef JerkyAug 31, 2009
By Tiger in the Boat
"Tiger"
Short and Sweet: this beef jerky is quite sweet, compared to commercial jerky. In a one ounce portion, there are seven (7) grams of carbohydrates. For those on a low-carb diet, that is a significant amount.
I notice that in the more "natural" jerkies, they tend to use more sugar. Perhaps it helps the texture and make the jerky a little less likely to dry out.
It does show this on the label, which Amazon makes available, so don't make the same mistake I did and buy impulsively.
If you are trying to find a beef jerky without preservatives, and from animals raised without antibiotics, etc, then this product is acceptable, if a little sweet. But if you are on a high protein diet, avoiding carbohydrates, then beware.

Buffalo JerkyJul 28, 2008
By A. Auvray
We have tried different types of jerky and my husband and really like the flavor of this brand. We would like it if there were a little more to a package because we usually share it and it seems to be gone before we know it. It is a little pricy so we only eat it occasionally.

 Good quality - good tasteSep 23, 2006
By Leslie
"Lesliethegreat"
I was a little wary about ordering jerky off the internet since I have never tried this brand before. Not to worry, this buffalo jerky is good quality and tastes great. I will be ordering this again.

This buffalo slab jerky has a great taste. I found some fat and gristle along the way.
