An article on the growing popularity of jerky was recently published in the Washington Post. Jerky combined with similar dried meat products on course to surpass potato chips as the number one snack in America.

This news announcement is long overdue, where we have started all of the most recent jerky makers that submitted their jerky for review. In this round of submissions, I approached four jerky makers that are likely in the bottom half of the top 10 for jerky sales in North America. All four jerky makers agreed, but then out of nowhere, last minute Divine Bovine changed their mind.
