Old Santa Fe Trail (Route 66) Beef Jerky offers authentic, traditional beef jerky made on Route 66 for over 30 years using a family recipe. The jerky is all-natural, additive-free, and has minimal ingredients, with the original style containing just beef and salt. It features a thin, dry, crispy, and crunchy texture, described as like beef potato chips. The product is high-protein, low-fat, and has zero carbs. Reviews show customers love it, with some having subscriptions. The customer service is noted as super friendly and wonderful. Available flavors include Original, Hatch Green Chili, Red Chili, Red Chili Teriyaki, and a limited Christmas Chili. The spice level on the chili varieties is generally considered just right, adding heat without being overwhelming, and typically without a lot of seeds. Some feedback notes a preference for the typical green and red chili mix over a specific variety like Chile De Arbol. A common observation is that jerky prices have increased in recent years. The business has a clear divide: those who prefer traditional, thin, and crispy jerky will likely love it, while those who prefer thick, chewy, and moist jerky may not. The recommendation is to give it a try regardless.
