Dixie Diners' Club - Beef (Not!) Strips (1 lb bag)

I used some of this to make vegetarian Philly cheesesteaks. It rehydrated easily in hot water. I just boil water in the kettle and pour it over the amount I want to use in a bowl and leave it covered until it’s soft. It absorbed a lot of flavor and the texture was good. I had some left over so I threw it in some ramen the next day and that was pretty good to, so i would say that you could find a lot of uses for this stuff. Bon Appetit!

Good product. Just rehydrate with broth and you can use the same way as beef. It has lots of protein 25g per serving. Potassium 1210mg, Iron 28%,calcium 16%, low sodium 5g, calories 140, fat 1.5g, cholesterol 0, total carbs 15g, fiber 9g. I have been buying this product and beef-not ground for 14 years. It keeps over a year in a glass jar in the cabinet without going stale. It doesn't have much flavor until you put broth in it. After I rehydrate it, I usually make a dark gravy and pour that over the beef-not. Great with noodles, rice or in vegetable soup.

I've ordered this product twice. The strips are easy to cook (hydrate) and absorb flavors pretty well but I couldn't get over the scent, which doesn't go away even after they are cooked as you would a meat product. I noticed another reviewer describe the smell like dry dog food when you add water to it and that's so spot on. If you can add enough seasoning or use it in soups it may help with the scent.

This PVT is great, perfect texture, we like that there are not flavors added to it, so we customize it to taste to our liking. one con is that it is not "non-gmo" and it is not organic. It would be great that Dixie Dinner's Club would jump into the "non-gmo" and "organic" product classification. I will not purchase it again for that matter.

Love this stuff! I am trying to substitute meat completely and this has helped a lot! I’ve made tacos with it twice/ Philly’s once and still have a half a bag left! The only thing I would say is that they don’t have any flavor so I rehydrated it with vegan beef broth that I got from Hy-Vee.

While the flavor and versatility was great, the digestive issues it has caused me have been horrible! No matter what recipe I used it in, it caused intestinal issues. I won't be buying this product again.

So good!! I had a surgery years ago that makes it super hard to digest beef. This is delicious. You have to season it a lot but the texture is amazing. It’s not exact he texture of beef but it is sooooooo close, I may go so far as to say it’s like really tender beef. Nothing like other alternatives I’ve tried. Looks like dog food in the bag and it ain’t cheap but it’s worth every penny!!

excellent product, flavor with better than bullion not beef when rehydrating. saute with minced garlic in olive oil, use in anything you would use beef in, great texture.
