Jerky is one of America's all time favorite snack foods. But not all jerky is created equal.
Here's 5 reasons why big brand jerky isn't worth

You're not supposed to be able to see through jerky

What's in your jerky? You may be surprised.

Major brands cut costs by using low quality meats, loaded with fats and fillers. It's blended into a meat paste and formed to LOOK like a whole meat piece. Ew...

At M&S Meats, we do things differently. We only use top round meat (that's the good stuff!), all sourced locally so it supports local farmers.

The flavor is gone after a few chews

Picture this, you've just bought a bag of big brand jerky and you dive in. You chew a couple of times and the flavor up and disappears like socks in the laundry.


We don't make that kind of jerky. We perfected our recipe according to the old cowboy recipes and have been making it the old west style since 1945. We make it dry and tough so the more you chew, the more the flavors are uncovered.

Big brand jerky is made by overseas companies

Their branding may not look like it but you'd be surprised to know where the head offices are for some big brand jerkies. And don't get us started on where they source their meat from...

When you enjoy M&S Meats, you're supporting a small business and hard working farmers in the USA. We source our meats locally to keep our land prosperous.

Machine produced jerky just isn't as good as hand made

Everyone seems to be about doing things quicker and more efficiently. Somewhere along the way big jerky brands forgot about quality.

We are proud to still make our jerky by hand. We hand slice and hand hook every piece. You can even see the hook holes in our jerky. Sure it takes more time, but the best things in life often do.

Real jerky should have some texture

Major jerky brands have forgotten what real jerky is all about. They make that soft, greasy stuff with no BITE to it.

That's why we still make our jerky the old west style. Proper jerky that is dry and tough and requires chewing. That's the fun of it!

BEST JERKY IN THE USA

I was blessed when I was in Montana back in the late 90s on my way to glacier Park to stumble across M&S Meats. The store was amazing! I have been ordering online on and off since then. I just tried their Huckleberry licorice and OMG is it yummy. I ordered 8 packages and just reodered 20 and some of the Huckleberry jam. I have plenty of jerk both Buffalo and Beef left and the honey is delicious!

As advertised

Jerky was exactly what I was looking for. Great quality meat. Peppered great. Almost spicy, but in a good way. They included a gift of honey Jalepeno and it was amazing as well. I finished 2.5lbs in about a week.

Thanks!
