What Kind Of Meat Is In Your Jerky?

Something we hear quite often is “Can you tell me more about the meat used in the products at Jerky Direct?” It is a very valid question since the overwhelming majority of the ingredients in our products is just that – meat! Whether it is our Beef, Buffalo, Turkey or Chicken Jerky, they all provide the ultimate high protein, low fat snack experience, thanks to quality meat, that you encounter in every bag.

At Jerky Direct, we begin with the finest USDA Certified all-natural and organic meat. When it comes to beef and buffalo jerky, there are certain cuts that provide us with the characteristics that make a premium piece of jerky. Nothing makes a better grilled steak than a nicely marbled rib-eye or New York strip due to the wonderful flavor provided as the fat is cooked away. Jerky on the other hand is best when sliced from the lean muscles such as the outside or inside round. This also provides the maximum surface area and muscle fiber to accept and hold the savory blends of natural spices and flavorings that will be added to the meat prior to cooking. The muscles are completely trimmed of all visible fat and are then referred to as “100 lean” or 100% trimmed of fat. After the precise amount of time in our smokehouses, this high protein extravaganza is packaged and ready to go wherever you choose to take it!

Poultry meats, such as turkey and chicken, have long been recognized as an excellent source of natural protein. Jerky Direct All Natural Turkey Jerky and All Natural Chicken Jerky provide a fantastic way to have a wholesome protein snack anywhere you go and at anytime. The process of creating our All Natural Turkey Jerky and All Natural Chicken Jerky begins with USDA approved all natural whole skinless, boneless breasts which are then sliced and marinated with our various blends of delicious all natural spices and flavorings. These slices of lean white meat are then cooked to the point of moist and tender perfection in our smokehouses and then sealed in our Stay-Fresh pouches to ensure that it is still as delicious the day you open it.
