The Carne Seca line is inspired by the diverse culinary tradition of Downtown Los Angeles and its many migrant groups. Taste the flavors of Northern Mexico and the Southwest region of the United States. Focused on bold flavors, fresh ingredients, and simple techniques, our Carne Seca Beef Jerky features all natural ingredients and a simplified process to showcase the deliciousness of traditional Carne Seca Beef Jerky. Whole cuts of 100% USA beef are cut into thick strips, marinated with distilled white vinegar and an all-natural spice blend featuring ground Hatch green chiles, then slow-cooked for a minimum of 5 hours to craft the best beef jerky. All meat snacks in the Carne Seca Beef Jerky line are handcrafted with love by our family in our Downtown Los Angeles jerky factory. The rich, smokey flavor of New Mexico Hatch Green Chiles blends into the savory flavors of onion, garlic, and tomato; finishes with a bright, vinegary tang. Our goal is to celebrate the natural meat flavor of the thick cut beef jerky. The Hatch Green Chile is best characterized as flavorful in its spice profile rather than a purely hot jerky or spicy jerky.BUILT FOR AN ACTIVE LIFESTYLE - Natural energy perfect for on-the-go snacking while camping, hiking, body building, backpacking.
