What would the shelf life be of jerky sealed with these in mylar bags at ROOM TEMPERATURE?

You would need to vacuum seal the jerky with these oxygen absorbers to make the self life last a while, and then you can put the vacumm sealed jerky into a Mylar bag with a couple oxygen absorbers and seal. That would increase the life of the jerky. Since jerky has fat it can go rancid the the self life will not be very long. maybe 6 months to a year if vacuum sealed and then put in Mylar bag.

I keep mine in the freezer, but they should be fine in the pantry if you use them within a month or two.

They actually suggest refrigeration, but I order these in bulk in 25 lb boxes and store them in a large kitchen cabinet, and I can attest that they last at least a year. I would like to put some in my food storage but haven't tried it yet. I think if they're dry packed in foil pouches or buckets with an O2 pack, they would probably last quite a while. The big threat would be rancidity, but since they have a very low fat content, I think they'd be OK. I can't see why they'd be any different than TVP.

After I open the package, I put them in a ziplock bag. As long as you keep them airtight, they last a very long time.

I have not used it for cookies, but have stored Jerky, Dehydrated apple chips, and Dehydrated Pineapple, and used to vacuum seal meat for the freezer. I have some Beef Jerky that has been stored for almost two months now and some pineapple chips that have been stored for over a month. So far, still sealed tight with no leaks. Opened a bag of jerky for one of the grandkids the other day. Taste's as fresh as when vacuume sealed. The only problem I have had was with some Freshsaver bags that I bought at wallyworld. May have just been a bad batch or old stock, not sure. But all the ones I have ordered from Amazon and directly from the Food Saver site have performed great, and never a problem with sealing. I also like to throw in a oxysorb pack which is just added insurance that no oxygen or moisture will be present when sealed. This is a dandy vacuum sealer. It is also great if you like to buy larger packs of meat to store in the freezer. No worries of freezer burn. And with no oxygen, the meat looks as fresh as when you sealed it. Hope this helps.

Hi Sean,Thank you for your question! And thank you to all who have answered. You can refrigerate the treats if you want but if you keep the bag sealed, they'll last several months. If you refrigerate them, they'll last longer. If they are at room temperature, they'll be easier to tear or cut into small pieces if you are using them for training.Thank you for choosing Rocco & Roxie,PaulCo-FounderRocco & Roxie Supply Co.

I didn't know, so I put mine in the freezer for 12 hours at minus 17 degrees F. They are still as soft and flexible as at room temperature! Amazing!

Hey Patricia. There is no shelf life. I would just refrigerate after you open the container.

I do know what the shelf life is as I buy two boxes every month and drink them daily. The drink pouches are sealed. Sorry I can not help more

My bag says to store in a cool dry place, and that they keep "best" in fridge or freezer. If you are thinking 25 years, then they would probably need to be frozen. The expiration date on my bag was stickered over, so I can't tell what it is. Maybe the manufacturer would have more precise info on shelf life.

I believe there should be an expiration date on the package. I would say you could keep them for a while at room temperature. After a week I would put them in the frig. The package is usually eaten up by then though for me. Hope this helps. :)

I would refrigerate them until you want to use them. I've had them all sitting out for about 4 months in the carrier and some have lost their flavor

I would think so as long as they have been kept in a dry place I've had mine for over 2 years I've kept them in mason jars though so I can see any decay and they seem to be fine and still taste fresh. I think because they are dried they have a substantial shelf life

The seals are made by a heat bar and the bags are slightly melted and sealed together, I would think forever. The shelf life for dehydrated foods is greatly increased by vacuum packing. I don't know how long grains and fruit would last, it would probably depend on fat and/or water content.

Probably, one year max at room temp. I bought six, I put 4 in the freezer, two in the refrig, I'm already on my second box, they are so good!

This product will last 1 year in regular temperatures (between 65 degrees F and 80 degrees F). Refrigeration will extend the shelf life.

These came in the 50# bag well packed/intact. It is posted that these will keep 10-15 years if properly stored. I recommend storing in Mylar bags with oxygen absorbers in 5 gallon buckets, keeping them in a dry climate controlled environment (at least under 70' F).
