Our famous Old Fashioned beef jerky was born 50 years ago in the back of a small roadside grocery store on the outskirts of Tillamook, Oregon.

Some beef jerky brands may use common allergens, such as soy or barley malt extract (a source of gluten). 12 Beef jerky often contains preservatives like sodium nitrite, which may increase the risk of narrow, hardened arteries and CVD.
Even so, beef jerky is expensive. Beef jerky is so expensive because it uses a lot of quality meat to make just a little bit of jerky, the process takes resources and employees' time, and beef jerky producers often buy from the beef industry and the price of beef can be expensive.
Generally, commercial beef jerky is best enjoyed within one year. However, to enjoy the jerky's premium flavor and textures, we recommend consuming it within six months of purchase. Homemade beef jerky, on the other hand, should last one to two months if you store it in an airtight container after making it.
These reasons, in recent years, have been particularly focused on the health benefits of a high-protein, low-carbohydrate diet. Eating foods with few artificial ingredients and the convenience of on-the-go products like beef jerky have also been significant factors. Beef jerky is light and has a long shelf life.
