The Yummiest Sushi Without Fish – EA Stewart

Jump to Recipe

This yummy Beefshi Hiker’s Sushi Hand Roll is made with beef jerky instead of fish. It’s an innovative new sushi style concept featuring pastrami, roast beef, and other prepared beef products in rolls with rice and vegetables. And, it’s absolutely delicious for an appetizer, snack, lunch, or to toss in your backpack on a hike!

I partnered with The North American Meat Institute (NAMI), a contractor to the Beef Checkoff, to create this video and post. All opinions are my own.

Sushi without Fish is Still Called Sushi

Contrary to popular belief, sushi doesn’t mean raw seafood. Instead, sushi refers to the vinegared rice that’s paired with many ingredients including fish, vegetables, or meat.

The various fillings that can be used in sushi are limitless. You can use your own favorite ingredients-including deli meats-to come up with your own creative twist on sushi without fish-like this flavor packed Beefshi Hiker’s Hand Roll made with one of my favorite prepared meats-beef jerky.

Skip the sandwich & make Beefshi instead!

This Hiker’s Hand Roll and other Beefshi sushi rolls without fish are a fun way to enjoy prepared meat in a different way than on a sandwich.

In addition, beef jerky and other prepared beef products are a convenient source of protein, vitamins, and minerals-especially iron and zinc.
