Original Sauce Smoked Beef Sticks and a jar of A.1\. Sauce. / Snackology #### Vermont A.1\. Original Sauce Smoked Beef Sticks If you grew up in the 1990s, you know A.1\. Sauce. Your household probably had the classic condiments: Ketchup, mustard, maybe relish. And then there was a likely a jar of A.1\. Sauce that belonged to your dad. And if you were feeling bold, you’d add some A.1\. to your steak or even your rice. Thanks to Vermont Smoke & Cure, you can now get that iconic A.1\. flavor in a beef stick. I assumed this was going to be kitschy — do people still use A.1\. Sauce in 2026? — but just catching a hint of that iconic A.1\. smell in this beef stick brought me back to my childhood. Vermont didn’t go overboard on this one, and the partnership succeeds [in the goal of delivering](https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/vermont-smoke--cure-takes-the-steakhouse-further-with-bold-new-a1-and-lea--perrins-meat-sticks-302787277.html?ref=theomnicosm.com) “signature steakhouse flavors in a convenient, on-the-go format.” ### Snack Score 4.0 Out of 5 ![Vermont A.1.

Sauce played a pivotal role in my childhood, I was unfamiliar with Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce before this ... which is wild since the company, based out of Worcester, England, is apparently the inventor of the impossible-to-pronounce Worcestershire sauce. Or at least gave the sauce its name. To be honest, I didn’t find much of a difference between the Lea & Perrins and A.1\. varieties of these Vermont beef sticks. The Worcestershire version is also good, but it doesn’t have that “bold, tangy depth” that comes with A.1\. Sauce. ### Snack Score 4.0 Out of 5 ![Vermont Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Smoked Beef Sticks](https://storage.ghost.io/c/f4/8b/f48be8ca-23c6-4d81-b0cf-da2fb0785911/content/images/2026/06/IMG_8982.jpeg) Vermont Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Smoked Beef Sticks [ 🍪 About the Snack Score → ](https://www.theomnicosm.com/snackology-snack-score/) *Vermont A.1\.
