Guaranteed analysis (as fed, per manufacturer): Crude protein (min) 11%, Crude fat (min) 5.5%, Crude fiber (max) 1.5%, Moisture (max) 82%. Calorie content, metabolizable energy calculated: 1,020 kcal/kg, 370 kcal per 12.8 oz (363 g) can. The maker's full product name is Beef Recipe Stew with Shredded Beef and Eggs.
Four species in one can, which is more than the name suggests: beef leads, then beef bone broth and fish bone broth, then duck fourth, with beef kidney, beef liver and whole sardine further down. If you are rotating proteins or feeding a dog that reacts to poultry, read that duck entry before you buy, because the label name says beef. On a dry matter basis the 11 percent protein is about 61 percent and the 5.5 percent fat about 31 percent, so this is the richer of the two beef-led Orijen stews here and carries 370 kcal per can against the chicken stew's 355. Organ content is good and specifically named, beef kidney and beef liver rather than a generic meat by-product term, and whole sardine brings fish without a fish-meal label. Fats are sunflower oil and salmon oil, where the chicken stew uses herring oil. No grains and no legumes appear at all. The AAFCO statement reads maintenance, so this is an adult food. Its near twin in the range is the Regional Red Stew, which swaps the fish bone broth for lamb bone broth and adds lamb liver and lamb; the two publish identical guaranteed analysis figures. No taurine guarantee, no sourcing statement and no made-in statement is published.

Questions about Orijen Beef Stew (Adult, Wet)
Is it beef only?
No. Duck is the fourth ingredient, and fish bone broth and whole sardine also appear. If your dog reacts to poultry or fish, the label name alone will not tell you that.
How does it compare with Orijen Regional Red Stew?
They publish identical guaranteed analysis figures, 11 percent protein and 5.5 percent fat. The Regional Red swaps fish bone broth for lamb bone broth and adds lamb liver and lamb; this one keeps the fish bone broth and sardine.
What is 11 percent protein in dry matter terms?
About 61 percent. At 82 percent maximum moisture the dry matter is 18 percent, so compare wet foods with kibble only after converting.
