KJ Poultry Kosher Ready Meals - Beef Rib Steak & Kugel, MRE Meat Meals Ready to Eat, Shabbat Food (6 Pack) Prepared Entree Fully Cooked, Shelf Stable Microwave Dinner Travel Military Camping Survival

This is one of the few mre meals that is really filling and doesn't leave you still hungry. Tastee.. for what it is. Would order again.

Received this package and thought I would eat it. The directions say heat for 3 minutes and I heated for 2 minutes 45 seconds. Was almost too hot. I vented the film covering food by cutting into it with a knife and making a 3 inch slit. The plastic film sealing the food has NO tab, so after heating I could not grip the plastic and had to use small scissors to cut film while very hot food. I then noticed my hands were covered in thick grease. I thought that was odd. Washed my hands and noticed that the knife and scissors had a thick white grease film covering it after a few seconds in water. It was very gross.Smells great and tastes great. I mean it tasted amazing, BUT, the food was more of a casserole and nothing was separated. No problem. I noticed that after eating I was so full, I thought I would throw up. Very unusual, since it was not a big meal. If my hands touched the food anywhere, it was very greasy. I realized that Grease or lard is main ingredient. I did not get sick but purposely made myself throw it up. The reason is if it is that much grease or lard in the meal then I would have the runs or worse later that evening. Without being gross, everything that came up was incredibly greasy and had to be rinsed and scrubbed several times. A fun fact, the grease or lard even coating my stomach made me feel 100% full till next morning. Since I had no food in stomach that is weird. Like I thought, I had diarrhea middle of night real bad and that is with 99% of the food not in my stomach any longer.I do NOT recommend this product for mankind or animals. I have some of their different meals and will test them to see if this greasy before even cooking but I suspect it is. Would not give to even animals. It will fill you up but I cannot imagine how bad it is for your health.

I'm not Jewish so I don't care about kosher certification. I care about taste (excellent, truly delicious), nutritional content (These meals are calorie dense but well balanced) and the absence of wheat (this flavor as well as a number of others are wheat free, if not gluten free). Thes meals are also very easy to prepare, and packaged for long-term shelf-stable storage (goodforat least a couple years at room temperature). They taste a lot better than any MRE entree and pack more/better nutrients with a better balance for someone trying to reduce carbs.I only have 2 complaints, onemajorandoneminor. The major complaint is the price ($15 for one meal is extortionate) even when you buy them in bulk, which made me hesitant to try these. I ended up buying a sampler pack which led me to buy more of this and some other flavors (they taste so good it's worth the money for occasional consumption). The minor complaint is that the plastic on top of the tray is essentially impossible to remove without a sharp knife, but doubtless it's so tough to ensure it can't break in storage. One important note though: be sure to cut a slit or pry up a corner of the sealing plastic before microwaving, otherwise it's liable to explode (the directions fail to mention this).

It is a 60 minute drive, each way, on a toll road for me to get to the closest supermarket that sells kosher beef and they seldom stock rib steak, The idea of getting a cooked kosher steak dinner in a box, ready in 3 minutes, is remarkable. The beauty is that it does not taste as if it came out of a box. From the beef to the kugel to the farfel to the tzimis, everything tasted wonderful. I only have two negative comments, neither of which will keep me from ordering this again. 1) The steak is not as good as mine, which I pan fry in black pepper and garlic. Of course, I didn't have to cook this steak, so that's okay. 2) The steak is not as thick as what I would buy fresh, but, as I said, my supermarket often doesn't even have rib steak, so that, too, is okay. I'm glad this product is available.

Great in an emergency I assume but horrible for an overall taste.

I ordered these for someone homebound recovering from illness and she finds these meals delicious! What a lifesaver when you can't shop or find it difficult to prepare meals. We tried a few varieties. Very impressed. And she is generally picky.

I used it for yom tov and loved the meal, softness of the meat, but way to salty for me. The portion was more than enough, quality excellent. Instead of kugal perhaps roasted potatoes. Kol hakavod.

This is the first time that I ever ordered these kinds of ready cooked, kosher meals, that don't require refrigeration. They only require a microwave to heat up. I'd like to state that the kosher meals that I've ordered on international airlines, and even domestic airlines in the past, tasted better, and were larger. In addition, they were much easier to open. Also, the meat was way too salty. However, my biggest complaint is that it was very, very, difficult, and frustrating to remove the plastic lid, covering the meat. I could not pull the tab up, to open the heated contents. Finally, I took a scissors, and cut away various sections, and pulled the meat out, using a fork, or just shaking the package. The instructions regarding opening the heated package, were lacking. Last, I noticed that from package to package, the size of the section of meat was larger in some, and smaller in others.
