Review

The first flavors that I pick up is light salty and peppery seasoning, with hints of the red wine marinade. Garlic and onion starts coming in, and a touch of heat is starting to build. The chewing brings on a rich natural meat flavor, with the taste of soy sauce, and faint traces of thyme and nutmeg

For being marketed as "Jamaican", it certainly holds up. I get a seasoning blend that tastes very much like Allspice, which is common with Jamaican cuisine, but I also get a light bit of chile pepper heat. I can pick up wee bit of thyme and nutmeg, also very common with Caribbean cooking. The light heat seems to register as "mild medium" on my personal heat scale (level 2 out of 5).

Otherwise, the primary taste profile is a complex seasoning blend with a moderate level of saltiness. There's a noticeable garlic component, and light chile pepper flavor. The natural meat flavors stand out well with its red wine marinade.

The meat consitency looks excellent. Seemingly all meat, sliced into thick strips that bite off easily enough. It's slightly moist that it retains a bit of softness, but overall has a typical jerky dryness. The chewing texture feels just like real pieces of steak, cooked medium well.

Verdict

This Jamaican Beef Jerky from Beefy Boys does an excellent job of delivering a complex seasoning and spice that the Caribbean island is known for. I really like the garlic, thyme, and nutmeg that stand out, and I like the light level of heat. But most of all, I like the rich natural meat flavor with its red wine marinade, and steak-like chewing texture. The thick strip cut that this Jamaican variety comes with is different from Beefy Boys other flavors, and creates more meaty-excitement because of how thick the pieces are.
