Grocery stores seem to offer more beef jerky flavors every day, but I still can’t remember the last time I bought jerky from my local market or a convenience store. Sure, why would I since I own a jerky company? But it’s more than that — the products sold in stores tend to be low-quality, dried out, salt- and sugar-laden substitutes for what the best beef jerky can be. 

At Mountain America Jerky, we offer a range of delicious jerky flavors beyond what’s sitting on grocery store shelves. Not only that, our gourmet jerky is 100% handmade without any preservatives, fillers, MSG, or nitrites. We use only the best cuts, sliced thick and hickory smoked (never dehydrated), to ensure each package is always moist, tender, and tasty. 

Original Beef Jerky

Our original salt and pepper beef jerky brings back the classic jerky meat flavor you remember as a kid. To create its unbeatable flavor and texture, we use fresh top and bottom rounds from our Colorado cows. These lean cuts are the best cuts of beef for beef jerky, and they’re a big part of what sets our jerky apart from the rest.  

Spicy Beef Jerky

This spicy beef jerky features a three-pepper combo that adds a little kick to our original recipe jerky. With black pepper, crushed red pepper, and a sprinkle of cayenne, it’s made for those looking for the “perfect amount of spice.”

Sweet & Spicy Beef Jerky 

Pairing sweet and spicy has been popular since the days of the Aztecs and Mayans, and with roots that deep, it’s no wonder our sweet and spicy beef jerky is so well loved. A favorite of many, it combines a hint of brown sugar with our signature spice blend to create an award-winning sweet and spicy jerky you’ll have a hard time putting down.  

Teriyaki Beef Jerky

If there’s one beef jerky flavor you know you can find hanging in a store, it’s teriyaki. But just because it’s there doesn’t mean it’s good. Our teriyaki beef jerky, on the other hand, is moist and chewy without being syrupy or sticky. We marinate it in our specially crafted sauce to deliver the ideal balance of salt, spice, and sweetness. We’d put this recipe up against that store-bought stuff any day.  

Habanero Beef Jerky

If you’re interested in experiencing intense heat on top of flavorful hickory-smoked beef, our habanero beef jerky is hard to beat. Not only is its flavor a standout, but smoking jerky makes the best jerky because the low and slow process retains the quality of the beef rather than turning it into a tough and dry disappointment. 

Peppered Beef Jerky

Our peppered beef jerky is one of the milder spicy jerky options we offer. With just the right amount of black pepper, this popular flavor has a bit of pleasant heat without being overly hot. 

Garlic Black Pepper Beef Jerky

Garlic and pepper lovers unite! Our garlic black pepper beef jerky pulls back on the pepper while adding a mild and savory garlic taste. Dubbed “seriously tasty” by our customers, this flavorful combination is sure to please. 

Free-Range, Grass-Fed Beef Jerky

While our main lineup includes seven delicious flavors, we also offer four excellent free-range, grass-fed products. 

• Free-range, grass-fed brisket beef jerky: Everything you love about our secret-recipe beef jerky and then some, this keto-friendly jerky is made using flavorful brisket marinated in salt, sugar, paprika, cayenne, garlic, and lemon juice.
• Free-range, grass-fed carne asada beef jerky: Carne asada presented as portable jerky? Yes, please! This grass-fed jerky delivers Mexican and hickory-smoked flavors reminiscent of your favorite mercado in a go-anywhere package.  
• Free-range, grass-fed garlic pepper beef jerky: If you already love our garlic pepper jerky and know that grass-fed beef is better, then this classically good traditional jerky flavor is for you. 
• Freerange, grass-fed sweet & spicy beef jerky: Put simply, this is some of the best jerky you can get. It features our fan-favorite sweet and spicy recipe on top of perfectly smoked grass-fed beef. 

Sampler Packs

Head-to-head taste tests and flights of brewery flavors are popular for a reason: Sampling an array of options one after another is fun! Next time you have a group headed over for a game or holiday, skip worrying about appetizers and offer up our hot lover jerky and cheese pack or a six-pack beef jerky sampler.
