UPDATED REVIEW / JAN. 16, 2026: New Primal customer service reached out to me and advised that they had been working with some co-manufacturers in 2025, in order to catch-up on orders, which was the cause of the change in texture. These issues have since been resolved, as evidenced by the samples that New Primal sent to me. They are just as delicious as before, and I'm so excited that these will, once again, be a staple in my pantry. Thank you, New Primal! ORIGINAL REVIEW / NOV. 17, 2025: I first started ordering these beef sticks back in Aug 2024 and they remained a staple in our home for nearly a year. I LOVED having a good source of quick and tasty protein at my fingertips. However, when I received my Aug 2025 order, it was immediately apparent that something had changed drastically. The color of the meat inside of the tubing is much lighter than it used to be. The flavor is also much more salty than it used to be. The biggest and worst change of all- the meat is now so soft and 'mushy' that it is difficult to even bite through the outer casing. I am so bummed that these are, essentially, inedible for me at this point. I am not sure what, exactly, changed at the New Primal factory, but I'm so disappointed by it!

I've been on the lookout for healthy snack options that I can enjoy on the go, and Primal Grass-Fed Beef Sticks have exceeded my expectations. These beef sticks are not only delicious but also packed with high-quality ingredients that make me feel good about what I'm eating. The flavor is outstanding. You can really taste the difference that grass-fed beef makes. The texture is perfect—not too dry or too greasy—and they have just the right amount of seasoning. Each bite is satisfying and flavorful, making them a perfect snack between meals or after a workout. What I appreciate most is the clean ingredient list. There are no artificial preservatives or fillers, just pure, high-quality beef. It's a great way to get a protein boost without any guilt. These beef sticks are also conveniently packaged, making them easy to toss in a bag for a quick snack anytime, anywhere. Overall, I highly recommend Primal Grass-Fed Beef Sticks to anyone looking for a tasty, nutritious, and convenient snack. They're a game-changer for anyone trying to maintain a healthy lifestyle while enjoying delicious food. I'll definitely be buying more!

Delicious, especially as a snack or with a Keto or a protein breakfast. Salty, but if eaten with breakfast no additional salt is necessary..

I’ve been buying these for years and most of the time absolutely love them, but I’ve noticed that the quality is different between each order. I imagine it might have to do with where the sticks are placed in the smoker (or oven, or however it’s cooked). Maybe some spots are hotter than other spots so it maybe gets cooked too much or not enough. Or maybe it’s a different cut of meat or fat ratio? Trouble is that when it’s good, it’s REALLY good. But when it’s off, there’s a weird texture where you just endlessly chew and the meat never breaks apart, like a meat-based bubble gum that you chew for a minute and have to spit out. So it’s a bit of a crapshoot, which is a shame.

Delish and healthy but too expensive. Why is it so expensive to stay healthy??

I’ve been buying these sticks for years and even had them on subscription. Unfortunately, the quality has gone down significantly to the point where they’re hardly edible. Before, when I would bite into one, it tasted and looked like meat. Now, it has a kind of paste-like consistency inside the casing. At first, I thought it was a fluke, but I’ve now had two more orders with the same problem. I’m canceling my subscription. It’s sad because it used to be such a good product.

The very BEST meat sticks! No artificial ingredients. Tastes good.

This is an excellent beef stick. The meat tastes lean and isn't overly salty or full of spice. It has a wonderful mouthfeel and is chewy without being stringy. Why three stars instead of 5? The deliveries have been inconsistent. Sometimes, the product is delivered overnight, and on one occasion, delivery took nearly two months. The quality can vary, too. When the product arrives on time, the quality is excellent. However, the meat tastes old and fatty when it is late, and the vinegar taste/smell can overwhelm the product. I have bought this product 15 times, and I hesitate to buy more due to inconsistencies in delivery.
