Pulled Pork

Great for pot-pies and noodle soup. I sent this to my daughter in college in North Dakota along with canned broth when she was sick last winter and it was 20 below and she couldn't get to a store for soup. It was perfect.Then my red-ear slider turtle needed vitamin A, so I started adding these to his food. He has never been healthier... and he's 20 years old (I know his age because I got him as a bitty one year old baby)! My cat started watching me feed the turtle, and he decided he wanted chicken. I gave him a piece once and now if he sees me walk near the turtle tank he follows me and paws at me until I give him a piece (or three).I love that these are people friendly. There are many freeze dried treats for pets out there, but I'm not sure I would eat them. I can eat these, cook with these, and feel good about giving them to my critters. Yes, there are crumblies near the bottom of the can... but that's to be expected and you just toss them into soups or sauces or casseroles or gravy or... anything, and then order the next can.I usually cook with fresh ingredients from my garden, farmer's markets, raise my own, etc... but I live in fire-country rural northern California and when it's time for an evacuation, this is a nice staple to have on hand. (For the record, I'm not a prepper, I just think this makes good sense).

Looks good, smells good, tastes good to me.While I have options like this for emergency use, I buy this primarily for lazy use. If I really dont want to make a special trip to store and somehow have run out of chicken at home, then I can dip into this for a handful of chicken cubes to add to my dish. I use this brand and a couple of others. Nearly all the same to me.Further, I have 3 dogs and 2 cats. I always add bits of chicken to top their kibble off with. Hence why I may find myself suddenly out or short on chicken. I go through a lot. Having back up in the form of freeze dried chicken has been ideal. My cats arent much for eating straight chicken, but I can take a cube and press it between my thumb and finger to have an intriguing cascade of white chicken powder rain down onto their wet food or dry kibble. Magic!I add a little water to rehydrate, or I pinch it to make dust. Just depends on what it is for, when it is for, and who it is for.My container is not dust. But dust will happen toward the bottom, no matter the brand. It will take me awhile before I see this, so in mean time all I see are cubes. Since I use this primarily for my dogs and cats, they really dont mind what form it is in. If I were using this exclusively for myself, I would be pleased with how it looks. When I use it, I usually just toss in a handful to a large mug of sipping broth. It is perfect for that.Or one of my quicky faves: I love chicken pot pie. I dont always have the stuff to make it. Or I dont want to. But I do love taking a can of white beans (navy, cannellini, or garbanzo) and processing it with my immersion blender with a little water or broth (water and dry bouillon usually) to make a "gravy" (takes seconds), then add seasonings, some frozen mixed veg like that is seen in pot pies, and warm it all up. I toss in some chicken cubes. VOILA. Healthy chicken pot pie guts. Doesnt take like beans. If I really want a bread/crust/pie vibe, then I will have a slice or ten of toast to dip. Or canned crescent rolls, something like that. I suppose now we are venturing into chicken and biscuit territory.I dont rate on price, but I comment. I thought $51 for 19 ounces was reasonable compared to some options. I try to get most bang for my buck by comparing price per ounce. This happened to be pretty good at time, so I bought 2. (Their price for a 4 pack bundle is NOT a savings at all, so be aware).

We love this chicken. I was so scared honestly to try it, but it is incredible. Not only for our family, but also as a healthy treat for our labs. The only ingredient is chicken… how amazing is that?? Quality and quantity. I wish it wasn’t quite so spendy, but when you do the math and see how many servings you get it doesn’t hurt the wallet quite as bad. Awesome awesome find.

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.

My wife was looking for something like the sausage used on take-out pizza and found this. She also has used it in omelets and other foods. Very good flavor and easy to use in cooking so she is very satisfied.

Very good Product and fast delivery.

Good value. Arrived in a timely manner.

I can't speak to using it in camp food or home food. My dog loves it, and it's a good softer texture for him. It does come with a high ration of powder since it is not overly hard, but it's not an issue for our use. It doesn't have salt and is precooked to get rid of any salmonella, which is why I prefer it.
