Our Story

Made with
love, care,
and respect

At Jackal Jerky, we don't cut corners — we cut USDA Black Angus bottom round. Every batch is marinated for 12 to 24 hours, then slowly dehydrated for 6 to 8 hours until it reaches jerky perfection.

All handling follows commercial kitchen specifications with the highest sanitary standards. This isn't mass-produced snack food — this is craft jerky, made right here in Kenosha, Wisconsin.
