Nutristore Freeze Dried Ground Beef | Pre-Cooked Hamburger Meat for Backpacking, Camping, Meal Prep | Long Term Survival Emergency Food Supply | 25 Year Shelf Life | Bulk #10 Can | Made in USA

Cooked with these a few different ways to try them out. When rehydrating flavor the water with your favorite spices/seasonings, worcestershire sauce. They don't seem to have salt in, so I add some. The beef is really good and texture of actual ground beef. Made with chili, and other dishes. Works well. I did experiment with frying in pan, thought I could hold the pieces together with a slice of cheese. LOL, not really, but it did taste like a cheese burger. Cook for only a minute or 2. Give this a try, you won't be disappointed. Cooking for one, this product is great! Choose the amount you want, stores in cupboard so you don't have to deal with freezer burn. Cost effective.

Nutristore’s freeze‑dried ground beef is high‑quality, clean, and surprisingly flavorful once rehydrated. It cooks up like fresh beef, works well in meals, and has a long shelf life. It’s a reliable staple for emergency storage, camping, or quick weeknight meals.

I bought this for the novelty to see if freeze dried could taste any good. First time i tried it i followed the instructions but it ended up a bit too chewy and tough in the center. I tried longer incubation times in water and then i just left it in a large bowl of water covered in saran wrap overnight in the fridge. After that and throwing it in the microwave it was amazing! Great texture and it has a meaty fatty taste that is actually filling (almost too filling i gained weight). I tried then combining it with canned soups, or some rice, or even instant noodle to add more protein... and that can actually goes a long way for one person. This is the real deal.

My dog has mouth cancer and frequently won't eat his kibble and doesn't like soft dog food. My vet recommended rice & hamburger. I found this product and love the ease of use and I use the excess water to flavor the rice for him. I'm vegetarian and can't speak to the taste, but it does look and smell like you expect ground beef to look/smell.

Theses products last years. Just in case you need food and unable to get food. I have our own supply of various products in case of an emergency. We have to be prepared with vegetables, fruits and meat.
