Unfortunately, homemade jerky normally isn't around in unlimited supply. It doesn't help that I go through it like a starving squirrel through a nut cache. So where do I go to get my jerky fix when I don't have any of my own? My favorite supplier is House of Jerky, bar none!
House of Jerky is owned and operated by a lovely lady named Janie. And HOJ has just about any kind of jerky you could want - beef, venison, turkey, boar, buffalo, salmon, and exotic jerky, including alligator! You can get it in natural, black pepper, teriyaki, hot, and sweet and spicy flavors.
I've had most of the jerky with the exception of salmon and exotics. It's ALL good! While venison remains my all time favorite, the turkey jerky blew me away! Awesome stuff! I'm not a big fan of teriyaki, hot, or spicy flavors in general. That's just my personal preference. It has nothing to do with the jerky itself. However, I have tried all of those flavors from HOJ and they're very good. What I like personally is the black pepper! Holy dried meat, Batman! The black pepper ANYTHING is killer! I'd fight a rabid skunk with both hands tied behind my back to get some of that stuff!
House of Jerky doesn't use any preservatives or funky additives in their products. It's all natural and USDA approved. They slice their jerky, too. It's not chopped, pressed, minced, processed, hammered, stabbed, beat down, slapped, or stomped on. Not only is the jerky excellent, but so is the customer service! On top of that, HOJ is a huge supporter of our troops! They routinely send jerky care packages to our men and women in uniform. You can help with that effort, too. Check it out on their website.
I have to be very careful about ordering jerky for the simple reason I could easily spend too much money! Unlike crackheads who steal to fund their addiction, I come by my money honestly. And HOJ jerky is honestly that good! In fact, I'm starting to twitch and get that craving just from writing this post. It reminds me of what I went through a few years back while getting cured off the Wild Turkey.**
If you're a jerky connoisseur or you just like gnawing on it while slugging a cold beer, you'd probably like what House of Jerky has to offer. Give it a try. If you don't like it, you can send it to me for proper disposal! Guaranteed.
