Collection: People Jerky - for humans to eat !

Life's Too Short for Skinny Jerky!

Welcome to Big Fat Jerky, born in the backwoods of Perry County, Pennsylvania, where hard work, country roads, a little moonshine and good food are still a way of life.

For more than 20 years, our family has been making premium jerky for dogs through our business, Doggie Delights. Along the way, one thing became pretty obvious...

I'm a big guy... and I absolutely love beef jerky.

So one day I asked myself...

"Why can't somebody make jerky the way I'd want to eat it?"

Not tiny little strips.

Not paper-thin pieces.

Not bags filled with more air than jerky.

Just big, hearty pieces of whole-muscle beef, loaded with flavor and made for people who appreciate real jerky.

That's how Big Fat Jerky was born.

Around here, we don't take ourselves too seriously. We joke about being a little country, a little rough around the edges, and maybe carrying a few extra pounds. That's exactly what our brand is about—having fun, enjoying life, and never apologizing for who you are.

Whether you're sitting in a deer stand before daylight, working on the farm, watching the Steelers kick butt, casting a line into Shermans Creek, taking Fox Hollow home, or just relaxing on the porch with your pup...

We hope there's a bag of Big Fat Jerky close by.

Because at the end of the day, good food is meant to be shared, stories are meant to be told, and life is too short to eat boring jerky.

From our family to yours...

Thank you for supporting our small business.

Stay country. Stay hungry.

BIG. FAT. JERKY.
