It took over nine years to review $8,000 worth of jerky. The biggest complaint that people have about jerky is that it’s expensive. While there are cheaper brands of jerky, good quality jerky can be expensive. Remember that jerky loses 50% to 75% of its weight due to moisture evaporating during drying. Of course, the best way to get around the expensive price of jerky is to make homemade jerky.
When lockdown started in 2020, the number of jerky submissions dropped, and the purchases increased. That trend, by choice, has continued into 2023. We can review all these great, small, fantastic craft jerky makers. However, the larger jerky makers tend to get the most views. We are sitting on a nine month inventory of jerky yet to review.

The figure of $8,000 worth of jerky reviewed is misleading. The figure would be much higher, where the $8,000 only includes unique bags of jerky reviewed. If, for example, a jerky maker submits or we purchase two 3 oz bags of the same flavor, then that only counts as one 3 oz bag. If, for example, a jerky maker sends us one 3 oz bag and one 1 oz bag of the same flavor, that does count as two bags reviewed. There needs to be something unique about the bag, whether the bag size is different, the bag design has changed, or the jerky has been reformulated.
We are proud of offering great exposure, allowing us to get every jerky brand known to the market and community in this probably now 3 Billion Dollars annual sales dried meats industry. The jerky sector has a broad presence on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. As a general rule, jerky makers with high social media activity have good to great tasting jerky.
