Can easily separate the powder in two so that one container will serve 2 occasions. Makes a lot!! Need to add your own aromatics, however, and a little salty. But easy.

Delicious, but there are too many chili seeds.
Its taste good if you deep it in tajin salt with lime juice. But if you eat alone! Little too sweet. But overall it’s way better than in Asian store. In Asian store beef jerky is look old and wet. It’s look unappetizing! So 5 star for this on wee
