The beef snacks are offered in varieties like Spiced Teriyaki, Honeyed Jalapeno and Pineapple & Orange, each of which features a recipe that's high in protein and free from gluten. Each of the [seasoned beef snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beef-bitlong) features a hint of some heat, incorporated in the form of spicy peppers, chiles and hot spices, although these flavors are well balanced by other ingredient inclusions. While there are many [beef jerky snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/peoples-choice-beef-jerky) that have come to be known for their poor-quality and low-cost ingredients, these snacks set themselves apart with gourmet recipes and hand-seasoned pieces of meat.
