I never had that brand. But I like most all jerky. There was a commercial brand of seasoning, I think it was called "High Mountain" that I tried once. It was really good. I made my own from a recipe and it was OK, some really liked it, but this High Mountain I really enjoyed. Normally when I hunt, my snacks are apples, crackers, water, and occasionally a candy bar.
Speaking of smoking. When I used to smoke, it never seemed to upset the deer. In fact I once had a doe stop in her tracks and scent the air, and look right at me. I could have shot her at anytime. But I thought it strange she was so curious. I think deer are curious creatures. One reason I use pure Mexican Vanilla as a cover scent. Deer and bear like it.
