Anything good out there? Please help! -Not A Shiksa -Rachel Thu Aug 25 14:48:28 -0700 2005 0 Rachel 1 1442840 They sell kosher beef jerky at Wasserman and Lemberger's in Baltimore. Thu Aug 25 14:59:56 -0700 2005 1442839 0 David 2 1442841 Do you have any contact information for them? I'm in Staten Island and have no way of finding them... have you tried it? Is it good? Thu Aug 25 15:01:48 -0700 2005 1442840 0 Rachel 3 1442844 Rachel: I too am from SI, try going to Irwin;s or Kosher Depot and asking tehm to get some. I know I would buy some.

Thu Aug 25 16:39:57 -0700 2005 1442844 0 DeisCane 4 1442847 Ari, These are not located in Staten Island, right? -Rachel Thu Aug 25 18:13:53 -0700 2005 1442844 0 Rachel 5 1442869 Irwin's ( which is actually,Famous Kosher Bakery)on Victory Blvd.; and Kosher Depot, on Sunset (corner Bradley Avenue) are indeed located in Staten Island. I may be totally mistaken, but I think that I've seen some some type of commercially vacuum packed dried beef sticks on the counter at Kosher Island, on Victory Blvd., next door to Famous Kosher Bakery. I'm not sure if this is beef jerky. Barbara K., another Staten Islander Mon Aug 29 10:05:52 -0700 2005 1442847 0 Barbara K. 6 1442871 Barbara, I'm too scared to go to kosher depot - there were way too many robberies there. But I'll definitely check out the other store. Thanks a million! -Rachel Mon Aug 29 10:33:12 -0700 2005 1442869 0 Rachel 7 1442872 You're very welcome. I wasn't recommending Kosher Depot, which I wouldn't, although I wasn't aware of the robberies there. I was just letting you know where it's located :) Kosher Island, on the other hand, is a nice take-out store in Staten Island, which has a good selection of prepared foods. Famous Kosher Bakery is a comission bakery/kosher grocery store, which I frequent regularly.

Is it good? Is it spicy? Lots of questions.... thanks for replying :) Good Shabbos, Rachel Fri Aug 26 14:18:49 -0700 2005 1442852 0 Rachel 5 1442854 I have never tried it. I am not into that kinda stuff, so I would not know good from bad. If you decide you wanna try it and they will not ship to you let me know, maybe I can help you out. Fri Aug 26 14:48:05 -0700 2005 1442853 0 HappyMom 4 1442967 A bunch of years ago we went to Jamaica and bought a jar of jerk seasoning. The seasoning itself is entirely an herb mix with, hot pepper, salt, sugar and vinegar. We couldn't enjoy jerk when in jamaica ( lack of Kosher chicken there) so I made some when I got home. you just rub the mix on chicken or beef and let it sit for a few hours..then you cook it. Jerk is an amazing experience...the meat is intoxicatingly spicy. even the marrow bones become infused with the spice. you get a buzz from the spicyness. it isn't just hot...there is a complex layering of flavors. making the Jerk is really really easy. unfortunately my kids hate spicy food...so I rarely make it. it is possible to purchase jerk mixes in gourmet stores and in groceries that cater to folks from the islands...if your kashrut allows you to purchase all vegetable stuff with no hechsher...then it is possible and easy to make jerk chicken or beef . another alternative is to make the jerk mix at home. ( also not very difficult to do)the book Down Island Carribean Cookery by Virginie and George Elbert has a recipie..I don't know what the policy is here on quoting published recipies...but you can probably look up the spice mix on epicurious. it is really easy to make..and an event to eat. Mon Sep 05 15:37:59 -0700 2005 1442852 0 SARAH 1 1442843 The best jerky I had was from a butcher in Beachwood, OH called Shimon's. He has his own smoker for all his deli. Thu Aug 25 16:29:13 -0700 2005 1442839 0 abe 2 1442850 Correction. The butchers name is Tibor's. They sell could vacuum pack all their meats. Besides deli and beef jerky they also make great turkey jerky and salami sticks. They would probably deliver. Tibor's 2185 S. Green Rd. University Heights, Ohio 44121 216-381-7615 Fri Aug 26 09:15:29 -0700 2005 1442843 0 abe 3 1442851 Thanks... but I called and they wont ship :( Fri Aug 26 12:09:52 -0700 2005 1442850 0 Rachel 1 1442846 Does anyone have actual contact information for getting beef jerky? Like a phone number? I had "beef jerky" at Prime Grill, so-ooo good... I didnt know Le Marais had any. Are these packaged air tight - so you dont have to freeze it? Thu Aug 25 18:12:59 -0700 2005 1442839 0 Rachel 1 1442848 if you are in new york try glatt mart on avenue m and east 12th in brooklyn, they make their own and also have their own smoker for all their deli, great smoked turkey, salamis sausages , pastrami etc. Thu Aug 25 19:10:03 -0700 2005 1442839 0 yitz 1 1442855 And while we're at it, can anyone locate some kosher biltong (South African beef jerky)?

(call since web sight may be down) Hashgacha is from Cleveland Kosher Rabbi Boruch Hirschfeld (404) 347-0264 If you've eaten non kosher Turkey, Bufflo and Beef Jerky don't get your hopes up too high on the kosher stuff which is often too soft, too smoky, or too salty. Consider Vegan Soy based jerkys which I personally prefer such as; Stonewall Jerquee http://www.nexternal.com/vegane/Product75 Soy jerky is softer and oilier than regular beef jerky, so if it's the hard chew you are looking for, you won't get it here. I enjoy Soy Jerky as a tasty source of pure protein while I'm on the go.

You'd have to research that hasgacha to be sure, but many trust most Vegan regardless. remember Vegan is MUCH stricter than vegetarian at avoiding even traces of animal by products.
