Brittney_grace Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Hi there! I'm on day 7 of my Whole30 and was wondering if I could have homemade jerky if the ingredients are compliant? I have a couple homemade runs with compliant ingredients that I use, as well as beef and chicken jerky recipes. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirkor Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Ya, eating it is fine, and since you are making it yourself it's not going to have quite the same caveats that Epic/Lara bars do, but you'll still want to go for "template" meals incorporating protein, vegetables, and fat. Don't rely on the jerky as a snacking or grazing crutch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't rely on the jerky as a snacking or grazing crutch. I tried the Epic jerky last week (not on Whole30 yet but still researching) and really liked it and I usually hate jerky. What are some the caveats in relation to it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slc_melissa Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Eat as part of a template meal, don't use it as a snack, and don't do it mindlessly. (And calculate the "palm" size of protein as if the meat were not dehydrated.) Also, drink plenty of water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
