beef bites

Many beef bites use beef from the chuck or are labeled simply as “beef” without naming a specific cut. Some products combine beef with other meats such as pork or chicken in their recipes.

Protein content varies by product and serving size. In the examples reviewed, some beef snack sticks list about 10 grams of protein per serving while others list about 4 grams per serving.

Frozen beef bites are kept frozen until ready and are usually heated from frozen by microwave, stovetop, or oven. Example product instructions show microwaving for about 1–1½ minutes for a small portion, stovetop heating for roughly 10–14 minutes, or baking at 350°F for about 16–18 minutes.
