The New Primal: Introducing New Taste Sensations

We’ve long been fans of the grass-fed beef jerky produced by The New Primal. The company began modestly with founder Jason Burke creating his own beef jerky in his home kitchen. That plan, however, nearly ruined his marriage because his wife complained her clothes always had a smoky, BBQ scent she couldn’t stand. So Burke moved production to a catering kitchen and restored harmony in his personal life, allowing him to continue growing his business without the risk of divorce on the horizon.

The New Primal has experienced great demand for its beef jerky products and now it has unveiled some tasty new items to round out their portfolio of snack foods and sauces.

It gives a punch to most anything you have on your menu—vegetables, chicken, steak, lamp, tofu and even leftovers!

Also new are four jerky stick flavors: Habanero Pineapple, Cilantro Lime, Barbecue and Maple Bacon. Everything is gluten-free, Non-GMO, hormone and antibiotic-free, soy free, and Paleo friendly. The New Primal uses free-range turkey and grass-fed beef for all their products. Feel good about yourself and your snacking with the peace of mind that comes from knowing your food was raised ethically and with your health and the environment in mind. You can find The New Primal products on their website and in stores such as Target, Kroger, Whole Foods, and more.

What is steak frites? Your new favorite comfort food
How to master the French classic of steak and fries
Steak frites

I've lived in Italy before, which afforded me a quick 2-hour plane ride to Paris in the summers. I'm from the United States, and I don't speak French, so I wasn't exactly familiar with the menu the first time I went to a restaurant in the City of Love. I picked something that looked familiar ... steak frites. I got perfectly seared steak next to a golden mound of crispy fries; it felt familiar and comforting.

So, what is steak frites? It’s one of the simplest, most iconic dishes in French cuisine. A bistro classic, it's exactly what it sounds like: steak and fries. But don't let its simplicity fool you — when done right, it delivers big flavor with minimal fuss.
