The Jerky Guy
“The World’s Finest Gourmet Beef Jerky,” proclaims The Jerky Guy. We worry about absolutes, but he’s certainly got a fine jerky product, made in the U.S. from “select beef round.” The company is very conscientious about delivering the finest product, with no artificial preservatives or additives: soy sauce is specially made to avoid the preservative sodium benzoate, found in commercial soy sauces. The jerky is slow smoked over real wood chips, not liquid smoke, to enhance the aroma as well as the flavor. Tender, large pieces of meat, wonderfully flavored, do melt in your mouth.
- Black Pepper is nice and peppery for those who like a little spice. If you like a lot of spice, move on to the next listing.
- Helluvapeño is spicy, but it won’t take your tongue off. Don’t give it to young children, but pour yourself a beer.
- Teriyaki is seductively sweet with a hit of ginger spice, and a complex recipe that includes soy sauce, sake, garlic, onion, rosemary...and sugar. We finished the whole bag in one sitting. Kids would love it as a snack.
The Jerky Guy products are 98% fat free and 80 calories per ounce except for Teriyaki, which is 100 calories per ounce.

Try all three flavors—but if you have a sweet tooth, get extra Teriyaki. It’s a great snack for kids, too.
