Astro Fresh Jerky's South West Hot Beef Jerky brings a regional heat identity to the premium jerky category. Starting with 100% USDA Grade A Top Round Beef marinated overnight in a teriyaki base, the Southwest spice blend adds crushed red chilies, garlic, and liquid smoke for a medium heat experience (2 out of 3) that builds steadily without the full intensity of Supernova Hot. At 12 grams of protein per serving and 114 calories, this handcrafted Southwest beef jerky is designed for the crew that wants serious flavor with a genuine kick — not a novelty burn. The teriyaki foundation keeps the base savory and rich while the chili heat escalates through each bite. USDA-inspected, no added MSG, made in the same small-batch tradition as every Astro Fresh flavor. South West Hot is the bridge between the lineup's sweet-savory flavors and the full-burn experience of Supernova Hot.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How hot is South West Hot Beef Jerky?+
South West Hot is rated 2 out of 3 on Astro Jerky's heat scale, medium-to-hot. The crushed red chili base delivers a slow-building burn with a Southwest smoky depth. It is notably hotter than Sweet & Spicy but stops short of the full-intensity cayenne and habanero profile of Supernova Hot (3/3).
How much protein is in South West Hot Beef Jerky?+
Astro Fresh South West Hot Beef Jerky contains 12g of protein per 1 oz (28g) serving, with 114 calories and 4g of total fat. Made from 100% USDA Grade A Top Round Beef, marinated overnight and USDA-inspected.
What spices are in South West Hot Beef Jerky?+
Astro Fresh South West Hot uses crushed red chilies, garlic, liquid smoke, and a teriyaki-based marinade (soy sauce, wine, vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder). The Southwest profile comes from the chili-smoke combination rather than a single high-SHU pepper, delivering a broad, steady heat with savory depth.
Is South West Hot Beef Jerky gluten free?+
No. South West Hot Beef Jerky contains soy sauce made with wheat and soy as part of the teriyaki marinade. It is not suitable for individuals with gluten sensitivity or celiac disease.
What is the difference between South West Hot and Supernova Hot?+
South West Hot (2/3 heat) uses crushed red chilies with a teriyaki base for a smoky, medium burn. Supernova Hot (3/3) uses cayenne, habanero, and crushed red chilies with an intense dry-heat profile and no teriyaki sweetness. South West Hot is the layered, savory-heat option; Supernova Hot is maximum intensity.
