The Balinese Curry Grass-fed beef Jerky is a culinary homage to a blend of cultures that have touched the family behind the Faith Meats brand. Initially inspired by Balinese samosas crafted by a cherished Eritrean babysitter, this flavor became a household staple.
While the traditional fried pastry dish is delicious, this jerky iteration transforms it into a low-carb, high-protein snack suitable for the health-conscious consumer. It's a modern twist on a timeless family recipe, thoughtfully designed without sacrificing the authentic Balinese curry flavor.
Whether well-versed in Balinese cuisine or exploring it for the first time, this jerky offers a unique and satisfying taste experience that bridges heritage and innovation.
A Bridge Between Cultures
When you bite into our gluten-free Balinese Curry Grass-fed beef Jerky, you're not just enjoying a delicious snack but sampling a piece of culinary history. But what exactly is curry powder, the aromatic blend that gives this jerky its unique flavor?
The notion of "curry" has been around for millennia, originating from the rich culinary traditions of the Indian subcontinent. However, the familiar blend we call "curry powder" is a Western innovation. Conceived during British colonialism, it aimed to capture the diverse and complex flavors of Indian cooking into a single, convenient blend for Western households.
In the modern culinary world, curry powder has expanded its reach far beyond its original borders. It's not just a spice blend; it's a universal symbol of culinary diversity and exploration.
Our gluten-free Balinese Curry Grass-fed beef Jerky is a tribute to this rich tapestry of flavors and histories. Made with premium, gluten-free ingredients and seasoned with an authentic Balinese curry blend, each piece is more than a snack—it's a journey through time and culture, promising both quality and a rich tapestry of flavors.
Reimagining a Traditional Dish
Balinese curry samosas contain a fried pastry shell stuffed with a seasoned potato filling and a signature yellow curry sauce. While delicious, the deep-fried dough makes it a high-carb, high-fat indulgence.
Our jerky removes the pastry shell and infuses thin slices of angus beef with exotic island spices. The result is a symphony of herbs, spices, and savoriness in a tidy protein package—the same crave-worthy Balinese curry taste re-engineered into a healthy, low-carb snack, true to the original recipe's roots.

What is the Paleo Diet?
The Paleo diet mimics the eating patterns of our hunter-gatherer ancestors. It focuses on unprocessed, whole foods like meat, fish, eggs, vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds, and healthy fats. Anything farmed or produced later, like grains, legumes, dairy, refined sugar, and salt, is excluded. The goal is to return to a healthy eating method aligned with human evolutionary biology.
What Does Paleo Mean?
“Paleo” comes from the Paleolithic era, referring to the time period roughly 2.5 million to 10,000 years ago. The Paleo diet avoids modern foods and attempts to replicate what our ancestors ate in the Paleolithic times before agriculture and processing changed human diets.
What is Paleo vs. Keto?
While both diets emphasize meat, fish, eggs, vegetables, and healthy fats, Paleo excludes fruit and some starchy veggies. Keto focuses solely on low carb, high fat with moderate protein. Paleo is primarily concerned with eating quality, natural foods but does not restrict any macronutrients.
What Does the Whole30 Diet Consist Of?
Whole30 follows Paleo guidelines but is more restrictive, eliminating sugar, grains, legumes, dairy, certain oils, MSG and carrageenan. It aims to reset your habits and relationship with food in just 30 days. After that period, foods are slowly reintroduced to see their effects.
