Essential Provisions Bison Chili

Ultra-Clean, Ultra-Flavorful Fuel – 60g of Protein, Zero Compromise

This isn’t freeze-dried filler or a salty chemical stew. This is handcrafted Bison Chili: slow-simmered flavor, real ingredients, and elite-tier nutrition, built for anyone who takes their health and performance as seriously as their preparedness.

Each pouch contains 560 calories and 60 grams of high-quality protein, with zero preservatives, zero dairy, and no filler. Just clean-burning fuel and bold, layered taste.

Flavor That Hits Hard—with a Minimalist Ingredient List

While most shelf-stable meals lean on lab-made additives to boost taste, Essential Provisions does the opposite: fewer ingredients, more flavor. This chili is built from scratch with a recipe that reads like something out of a cast iron pot at basecamp, not a science lab.

Full Ingredient List:

  • 100% Grass-Fed/Finished Bison – Lean, nutrient-rich, and the star of the show

  • Filtered Water – Clean hydration as the base

  • Organic Tomato Paste

  • Organic Onions

  • Organic Tomatoes in Tomato Puree

  • Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil – Heart-healthy fats, not cheap oils

  • 100% Grass-Fed/Finished Hydrolyzed Beef Collagen – Added protein and joint support

  • Organic Garlic

  • 100% Grass-Fed/Finished Beef Bone Broth – Nutrient-dense, gut-supporting

  • Pink Himalayan Sea Salt – Natural mineral salt, no iodized junk

  • Organic Chili Powder (organic chili pepper, organic spices, salt, organic garlic, organic rice concentrate)

  • Organic Smoked Paprika

  • Organic Cumin

  • Organic Red Pepper – Heat, with depth

  • Organic Cinnamon – Adds a subtle, warm finish

That's it. No gums, no added sugar, no preservatives, no MSG, and absolutely no compromise.

Built for Real-World Readiness

This chili was developed for those who live in reality, not marketing hype. Whether you're deep in the backcountry, grinding through a long workday, or fueling a hard training session, this is nutrition that works when it matters.

Raises the bar for MREs

I really didn't have crazy expectations for an MRE, I just wanted it to be edible. I saw that it used Bison and figured they must actually care about the flavor if they are using premium ingredients. I was not prepared for how good these actually are! I could easily eat these a few times a week! Awesome smoky flavor and great spices. These are a must have for any emergency kit.
