Keystone Meats All Natural Heat and Serve Ground Beef 28 Oz Fully Cooked Canned Meat Shelf Stable Emergency Survival Canned Food Ready to Eat No Preservatives Gluten Free Made in USA Pack of 3

The media could not be loaded. I am beyond impressed with this. It is pricey, but I believe it would be worth it to have in the pantry if your in an area where power goes out, as it is fully cooked and really has a good flavor it truly can be eaten right out of the can. It has a 5yr best by date.

This is a great product if you want to store shelf stable meats but don't have time to pressure can yourself. Not as good as my own fresh pressure canned meats only reason I put it at a 3 star. Also for those not used to using canned meats it can be a bit of a taste difference. I recommend you try it and make your own decision. I WILL BUY MORE! Very convenient product, just a bit on price

If you like the beef meat mixture Taco Bell uses for tacos, burritos, etc., you've struck gold!! I was skeptical of this product because well...it's MEAT...in a CAN. Thankfully, I was pleasantly surprised. First, when you open the can, you'll notice what seems to be half a can full of lard with a big clump of meat floating in liquid - kinda scary looking. But don't be daunted!! It's obviously a plan devised by the Fresh Beef Council to make consumers run back to them for all of their beefy needs!! (Yes, I think EVERYTHING is a conspiracy, but that's another topic for another day) Now, back to the beef at hand. The first thing you'll want to do is drain the liquid. I'm not quite sure if it's water or broth, but I know it's there for the sake of preservation, and it is not needed in the cooking process. The rest is a snap! After draining, I heated the skillet (with no oil) and added the meat to the skillet (minus some of the lard) to heat it through, breaking up the clumps along the way. There was enough fat content in the meat to create the perfect "simmering" situation, so there really wasn't much left to do except season, serve and enjoy!! But, be careful when adding salt. Even though it doesn't taste salty, there is a lot of sodium in it, and the additional use of salt may be harsh on people with hypertension (high blood pressure) such as myself. It doesn't automatically taste like Taco Bell meat, but it absolutely will IF you use 1 packet of the McCormick Hot Taco seasoning** and 1/2 cup water (instead of the 3/4 cup indicated on the packet) My days of the Taco Bell drive thru are now over! All I have to do is go to my pantry!! Great for camping, last minute meal planning or whenever you're in the mood for "no fuss" dining. I would (and will) recommend this product to friends and family!(**From experience, the actual Taco Bell taco seasoning doesn't taste like Taco Bell, so I stand by to the McCormick taco seasoning recommendation)

Two of the cans were badly dented, so that they cannot be used. They are just too expensive to throw away, and they cannot be returned, replaced, or refunded. Very disappointed, because the product is very tasty and good!

When you open the can, you will remove about 20% of this product with hardened fat. Disgusting. Probably about 11 ounces of fat I threw in the trash. Almost 75% of a pound of fat! And the meat is terrible. AVOID!

Yup, as was stated, I was skeptical of MIAC (meat in a can). I have tried a couple other Keystone MIAC products and they were actually pretty good. This ground beef is good too. The amount of fat and be adjusted by simply spooning any excess into the trash.I've used this with dried diced veggies (onion, garlic, tomato, bell pepper, celery and had good results. Adding a can of Sloppy Joe mix to part of it makes decent Joe's. Adding Salsa, Red pepper flakes, cheese and rolling in flour tortilla makes decent burritos. I was going to pump p up some Ragu sauce for spaghetti, but the burritos were so good I may have to do that again.

BOUGHT THESE FOR EMERGENCY USE - NO NEED SO FAR - WILL WRITE MORE IF I USE THEM - THEY HAVE GOTTEN QUITE PRICY (LIKE ALMOST EVERYTHING NOW DAYS)

Always out then comes back 4 times more expensive, taste great,
