About Us
Reindeer Brand Jerky Company was started totally by accident, my son wanted me to buy him one of those 1 oz. pieces of jerky looking stuff at the corner mini market one day for around 2 dollars, I said that stuff is not jerky, it's little scraps of meat that can't be used for anything else so they grind it all up, form and press it into something that resembles a piece of meat, then add flavorings and lots of preservatives so that it will still be somewhat edible a year from next Tuesday. I told my son that I could make jerky a lot better than that and it would be better for him as well.
That's when reality struck cause he challenged me to make some that was better, silly me, I didn't know anything about making jerky, but I couldn't let him know that, so I visited the "world wide web", I went to the library and got every book I could find on preserving meat and making jerky, I asked everyone I knew about making jerky and got a different answer from everyone of them, finally I decided to just do it and after much labor and intensive thought and about 500 pounds of meat later I came up with a hickory flavored jerky that got nothing but praises.
Everyone that tried it loved it and wanted to know where I bought it from, They somehow just couldn't believe that I actually made it myself, the response was always the same, "you should sell this stuff", and the rest is history.
Today we offer 5 different flavors of the best mouth watering jerky you have ever tried and 2 "Blow Torch" blends that really heat things up, in my opinion there is none better.
We start with the finest USDA choice beef, trim all of the fat and hand slice it about 1/4" thick, then add only the best seasonings that money can buy, and cure the meat for a full 24 hours before dehydrating to ensure the cure and the flavor has penetrated all the way thru, then slowly cook the jerky until it has just the right amount of moisture, "not dried out like a piece of old shoe leather" the results are nothing less than perfect, I think you'll agree.
