EPIC Provisions Bison Bacon Cranberry Bars, Gluten-Free, 12 ct, 15.6 oz

The texture is great, the flavors are great, the aroma is great, and the price is kind of steep but its not an easy thing to do. Keep it up!

These EPIC Provisions Bison Bacon Cranberry Bars are amazing! Not like jerky in texture -- the meats are blended and easy to bite and chew. The flavor blend is awesome -- love the touch of sweet cranberry. And a perfect snack for active days or very quick meals on the go.

I love these jerky bars so much! The bison and cranberry are my favorite flavor.

These Bison Bacon Cranberry bars are delicious! The first one was a little of an acquired taste for me but quickly turned into a delectable treat. The reason 4 less than 5 stars is the cost and size. They are much smaller than I thought they would be and expensive for the size but I really do like them. They have to remain a special occasion gift request for the price unfortunately.

We tried these a few years ago on a road trip and loved them, so I wanted to order them again. I find conventional beef jerky to be too dry and salty, and I'm allergic to ingredients in most plant-based "protein bars". These seemed like an excellent choice for a lower-carb snack. When the package arrived at our home, it was a hot day. I found that the flavor seemed OK but a little odd, and the texture was slightly unappealing. Then I remembered that it was winter when we tried them before. After chilling the bars in the refrigerator, it made all the difference in the world. They were very good. If you take these hiking or on a trip, take note. Keep in an ice chest or take for cool-weather excursions. Note that the packaging around each bar is secure and difficult to open. I was not able to tear it open and had to use a knife or scissors. Prepare accordingly, then enjoy!

These really taste great. Wish I had a lot more when on a medical missions for 3 months

I put off taking time to write this review for a couple of months but now I have to take time to say a few things because every time I eat one of these concoctions I get mad about the way they adulterated an otherwise excellent source of animal protein. First, thank you for sourcing 100% grass fed bison. We appreciate the thought but secondly..........what's the reason for adding all the carbohydrates??????? I mean look at the numbers!! Protein 7g, Total fat 8g but carbs....get ready for this......8 grams of added sugar in the form of brown sugar and cranberries and apple juice concentrate. Why? Are they making doughnuts? Or an imitation Snickers bar? From a marketing perspective I think they made a wrong guess by making these taste like one of those Slim JIm sticks that we see so often in gas station counters. Maybe they think that all Americans want to be sucking sugar all day long so they figured (incorrectly) that if they made a truly natural product out of 100% grass fed bison and did not make it taste like a sugar fix that it would not sell. I say they got it all wrong, but sadly......maybe they are actually right. If you're aiming for Nutritional Ketosis or even if you're just counting calories or carbs for maintaining lower A1C then, please be advised that there are better products out there but maybe not in the snacks and candy category. To end this rant I am asking Epic to please consider making a truly high quality "bar" without the sugar fix. And maybe aim it toward people who understand that every carbohydrate adds to the pile and those of us (who are growing in numbers) that do not want another source of sweets to be sneaked into an otherwise superb natural food. Finally, these things taste awful....I bought a Slim Jim once in desperation and I'll never forget the sticky taste. Well these things have a very familiar taste to them. I'm not saying these will damage your heart or your kidneys or jack up your glucose to 150 (assuming you are not diabetic and of course, if you are diabetic these are strictly off limits because of the simple sugars which are included in each bar) It's like eating a bite of a candy bar but if that's your normal snack then these might satisfy your need and minimize the total carb intake compared to a Cliff Bar or all the similar junk that has tons of added high glycemic sugars. And make no mistake folks..........sugar is not a health food when it comes in the form of sugar soaked cranberries, brown sugar and apple juice concentrate. It's still sugar and sugar is the problem with all those waist lines you see at Wally World.

My favorite is a tie between wagyu and this one and the cranberry bison bacon. This it’s a completely different texture that’s soft. It’s not a solid piece of jerky, it’s ground beef mixed with spices in the dried. Good for people that have issues. It’s just very flavorful. It’s a little fatty. It’s delicious if you like bacon it feels like you’re eating bacon.

Love them. Very convenient when traveling, especially when you need to follow The Autoimmune protocol! :) Thanks! UPDATE: Like I said, still love the Epic bars, BUT the price has risen ridiculously. These were about 10 GBP per 1.5 oz when I bought it. Now it's always between 30-50 GBP. Way too much.
