Chata Machaca de Res, Dried Shredded Beef, 3.5 oz, Pack of 1

It's got tons of savory flavor, great when you want a salty type dish. It does have a lot of fatty pieces,, but its supposed to and is part of why i love it so much.I use it for tacos and on rice. Next I'm trying on noodles. Not a huge portion, but well worth it.

So disappointed with the beef version of this chilorio from the Chata brand. I've purchased the chicken, turkey and pork varieties several time and they are great for a quick, easy to fix meal on a busy day. Plus it is perfect to have on hand in case of emergencies or for camping. My family really likes the pork for tacos so I even have it on automatic shipments through Subscribe & Save. I added a case of the beef chilorio to my subscription and it is nothing at all like the others. I don't know if I received part of a bad batch or what, but this is definitely not worth buying at any price. I don't know how this would have passed any sort of quality control. There is roughly 1/6 cup of meat (maybe about 1 1/2 ounces, equating to less than one serving) in each pouch and the rest is some sort of tasteless broth. This doesn't even come close to matching the product description or pictures (it is supposed to be four servings) and I now see that I am not alone in this assessment. I felt confident ordering based on my experience with Chata's other products, but with about $40.00 wasted (I ordered a case of 12) I sure wish I had checked the poor reviews before ordering.

This stuff is available in the "Mexican dinner kit" in county jail. It's so good, I would trade two cups of plumbers magic wine for it!

Product has very good flavor, however, there isn't much meat. It is mostly soup. I recommend draining the soup before making tacos.

Saw this pop up in my suggestions and decided to give it a go on a whim since it wasn't real expensive. You really get a decent amount of meat for the price. Heated this up on a pan with a can of chili beans for a burrito bowl and with rice was enough for 2 big burrito bowls. Texture was fine, no complaints. Well seasoned but I added some extra hot sauce because I like a good amount of spice. Would definitely get the pork again and now I want to try the other flavors too. Good to keep in the pantry for a quick meal.

The beef is okay, nothing to write home about quality wise but definitely a good option for camping. But honestly for the money it is pretty weak. By the time you drain the water it’s probably only enough to make about 1 or 2 tacos. I’ve found better quality and quality options for beef and won’t be purchasing this item again

I really wasn't sure what to expect with this I wanted something that was shelf-stable that would work for tacos, burritos, enchiladas, etc. I also have some health issues that pose some challenges for shopping and cooking, so I'm always looking for things that will simplify meal preparation but don't fall within the "junk food" category. I took a chance and I'm so glad I did. This fits the bill perfectly.I like that the ingredients list is straightforward -- no extra preservatives. The seasoning is perfect -- lots of flavor without a lot of "heat." I can add my own salsas to give it as much spice as I want. I just heat it in the microwave in the pouch, then add it to whatever I'm making (today was burritos with refried beans, Mexican cheese blend, and a medium-spice salsa).Initially, I purchased the 3-pack, but I like it so much I just ordered the 6-pack. This one's a keeper.

This product is the worst. The picture and product description make it look like you get enough meat for a couple of tacos. You don't! You get a bowl of soup with a miniscule amount of meat and the broth is bland. I am so sorry I bought this product. I consider it a rip-off.
