Raw Blends Red Meat Feast Grain Free Dry Dog Food
Verified May 21, 2026
This is a grain-free, higher-protein dry food for adult dogs that combines beef, pork, lamb meals, and organ meats with peas, lentils, and sweet potatoes for energy and fiber. It includes added taurine, omega fatty acids, joint-supporting glucosamine and chondroitin, and probiotics for digestive support. The formula is designed as a complete and balanced maintenance diet for adult dogs of all sizes who do well on a legume-based, grain-free diet.
Nutritionally, this is a solid, higher-protein grain-free dry food for adult dogs that relies on red meats plus legumes and sweet potatoes for energy. It offers useful extras like omega-3s, taurine, glucosamine, chondroitin, and probiotics, which many active or joint-prone dogs can benefit from. Because peas and lentils are prominent ingredients, it may not be the best fit for breeds where grain-free, legume-heavy diets are a concern without guidance from your veterinarian.

At a Glance
KibbleLab Review
Strengths
- Protein is reasonably high for a dry adult food and comes from several animal sources, including beef, pork, lamb, and organ meats.
- Includes salmon oil and flaxseed, which provide omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids that support skin, coat, and overall health.
- Contains added taurine, which is helpful given current concerns about heart health and some grain-free diets.
- Includes glucosamine, chondroitin, and a probiotic (Bacillus coagulans), offering joint and digestive support components.
Considerations
- Peas, lentils, and pea protein are major ingredients, making this a legume-heavy grain-free diet linked in some studies to heart issues in certain dogs.
- Multiple red meat sources mean it will not suit dogs with beef, pork, or lamb allergies or sensitivities.
- Fiber is on the higher side for many adult dogs, which can be helpful for some but may cause softer stools in others, especially during transition.
- AAFCO adequacy is based on formulation rather than feeding trials, so actual digestibility and performance in dogs have not been trial-verified.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
Deboned Beef
Deboned beef is used primarily as a high-quality animal protein and palatability enhancer in dog and cat foods, supplying essential amino acids, bioavailable iron and B vitamins that support muscle maintenance, energy metabolism and overall health. Because it is deboned it reduces the risk associated with feeding whole bones, but pet parents should note beef can be a common allergen and variable fat content increases calorie density, so it should be part of a formulated, balanced diet rather than fed alone.
02
Pork
Pork is used in pet foods primarily as a high-quality animal protein and flavor enhancer, supplying essential amino acids, B vitamins (especially B12 and niacin), iron and zinc, plus fat for calorie-dense energy; it can be suitable for both dogs and cats when balanced in a complete diet. Because pork can be relatively high in fat, it may be inappropriate for pets requiring low‑fat diets or those prone to pancreatitis, some animals may have sensitivities to pork, and raw or undercooked pork can carry parasites or pathogens so it should be properly processed or cooked.
03
Pea
Pea is a plant-based ingredient used in pet foods as a source of protein, soluble and insoluble fiber, and micronutrients (often included as whole peas, pea flour, or pea protein concentrate) to boost protein content and improve texture. While peas can provide digestible carbohydrates, fiber, and some plant protein useful especially for dogs, they are not a complete protein for obligate carnivores like cats and — when overused, particularly in concentrated forms or as a major component of grain‑free diets — have been scrutinized for a possible association with canine dilated cardiomyopathy and can contribute to nutrient imbalances or excess calories, so balanced formulation and compliance with AAFCO nutritional profiles are important.
04
Sweet Potato
Sweet potato is used in pet foods as a digestible carbohydrate and source of soluble fiber, vitamins (notably beta‑carotene), minerals and antioxidants, often helping with stool quality and serving as a binder or energy ingredient. It is generally well tolerated by dogs and can support gut health, but because cats poorly convert beta‑carotene to vitamin A and require preformed vitamin A from animal sources, sweet potato is not a substitute for meat-based nutrients; its relatively high carbohydrate content also means portion control is advised for overweight or diabetic pets and it should be cooked for best digestibility.
05
Lentil
Lentils are a plant-based source of protein, complex carbohydrates, fiber and micronutrients (notably folate and iron) commonly used in pet foods to add bulk, promote satiety and help moderate post-meal blood sugar. They can be a useful ingredient for dogs when properly processed and balanced with animal-derived amino acids, but lentil protein is less digestible and incomplete for obligate carnivores like cats; high legume inclusion can also increase gas or digestive upset and has been discussed in the context of diet-associated heart concerns in dogs, so lentils should be used in nutritionally complete, vetted formulations.
