Why Love's Is One of the Best Beef Snacks in USA
Love's Jerky Co. is a small family business, and the recipe comes from the founder's dad, Leroy. We make everything by hand and make it fresh weekly. That is why we sell out often.
Our jerky is thin-sliced and dried until it is crisp like a chip. The beef is not marinated, and we keep sodium lower than many brands. We add no preservatives beyond what is in some of the sauces.
Our Hatch Green Chile took 1st Place at the International Flavor Award, and Lemon Pepper earned 3rd Place. Each bag shows a made date, and the shelf life is about 6 months from that date.
Straight from our customers
I absolutely love these jerky bites! They are super dry and crisp, almost like chips. I've never tried anything like this before.
Probably the best jerky out there. I have tried multiple jerky companies and so far you guys are the best. It's always fresh and crunchy!
It's the perfect quick, low-calorie protein source, and the flavors are fantastic. My favorites are the Beef, Real Salt, and Red Chili. Shipping has been fast every time.
Bought this for my sons who are always looking for healthy protein! They love it!!
Love that it is thin. Good work snack.
Hands down the best beefy jerky I've ever had!! I just ordered two more large bags and a sample pack.

Tips for Finding the Best Beef Snacks in USA
Good jerky is easy to spot once you know what to check. Use these tips whether you are buying for yourself or for a group.
- Read the ingredient list. Shorter is simpler: Real Salt has two ingredients, and Salt and Pepper has three.
- Check the made date. Fresher jerky tastes better, and ours keeps about 6 months from that date.
- Taste a range first. Pair one plain flavor with one seasoned flavor to learn your preference.
- Check allergens before you order. Every product is made in a facility that handles dairy, peanuts, wheat, egg, soy and tree nuts.
- Order enough to qualify for free US shipping over $66.
5oz vs 1.5oz and the Sample Pack: Which to Buy
Not sure where to start? The sample pack gives you six flavors in six 1.5oz bags for $50, with free shipping. It is the easiest way to find your favorite.
Already know what you like? The 5oz bag costs about 25% less per ounce than the 1.5oz bag, so it is the better value for a flavor you will finish. The 1.5oz bags are ideal for tasting and for tossing in a bag.
Why Thin and Crispy Beats Thick, Chewy Jerky
Most jerky is thick and tough. Ours is sliced thin and dried until it snaps like a chip, so the flavor hits right away and you are not chewing for minutes.
Every cow is different, so some batches run a little chewier. The flavor stays the same. That is what you get from handmade jerky made fresh each week rather than a factory formula.
