Here in Alaska it's all about the salmon jerky. Moose jerky is common also. Very tasty. I have also had reindeer jerky although that is usually used for sausage. (kind of tough)

Moose jerky sounds interesting. I have had elk and goat but never moose. I am on the look out. I just saw reference to some Bear Jerky in Oregon but I could not find any while on my most recent trip. Anyone tried Bear jerky?

About 100 miles east of Seattle, in Roslyn, Washington -- The tiny town where the Cicely, Alaska scenes in Northern Exposure were filmed -- is a place back up the road, next to the old junkyard that makes the best beef jerky I have ever eaten. It is called Carek's Market ... I think it used to be a wider-service butcher, but they now just do jerky, the assorted dried sausages and bacon.

No presrvatives or chemicals, or odd flavors -- just basic, lean, tasty meat.

Gregg, the next time you're up that way, go over to Cle Elum. Right across the street from the Cle Elum bakery on the main street through town is a butcher shop called Owens Meats that has the BEST beef jerky in the universe.

I've often thought about moving up there just to be close to Owens. :-)

Bushie,

Do you know the name of the small little store in Johnson City that sells the Jerky? It is at the point the road Y's? They sell all sorts of nick nacks.

I want to tell someone the name so they can stop by and get me some dry sausage?

Has anyone else had Joel's beef jerky, in Flatonia, TX. It has a great flavor and is moderately tender.

Hey, thanks Cannon!

I see it's made in Stephenville using real Dublin Dr. Pepper syrup. I'll be ordering some!

Hey Bushy, you love Jerky and Dr. Pepper? Get them at the same time. Dr. Pepper Jerky... sooooooo good.

It's a little pricey, but well worth it. (Get the pound, you'll thank me)

One of my new favorites is made right at the Frontier Store in Paige, TX. (Near the intersection of Hwys 290 & 21.)

Last two road trips I've been on, I get beef jerky and a can of Pringles. That way I get my meat and taters on the road!

If your ever driving on I-90 between Albert Lea and Austin, MN there is a little town called Hayward. There is a meat market called Nick's that has won just a ton of awards for their Jerky and other products. I'll stop in and pick up a pound every month or so. I have it gobbled up in one weekend, start eating Jerky and drinking beer...I can't stop!

It has a nice "chew" to it.

I have a cousin in Tecumseh, MI that makes an outstanding beef jerky. Also makes turkey jerky as well. His is so good he quit his job he'd had for 20 years and opened his own convenience store/deli. He has not yet gone commercial with a packaged name, etc so you have to stop at his store and buy it there.

Hi all. Noticed the hits to my site, so I checked Roadfood out. Check out our locations and reviews, you can probably find us on many of your trips. Ours is not like shoe leather either. We make it fresh weekly and there's no preservatives. If you like the thicker kind, we also have nuggets.
If it's not appropriate for me to post here, please delete this. Thanks, Janie

Would you consider a pickled sausage product like a Tijuana Mama jerky even though it isn't dried?

For those Jerks on the East Coast, the Country Butcher in Ellingtion, CT makes his own Jerky. The store is on State Route 83 maybe 10 minutes off I-84. The shop is closed Sunday and Monday and open until 6 the other days. The shop often runs out so call before travelling far.

One of my customers brought me some home-made venison jerky a few days ago. Good stuff! I think it was marinated in some sort of soy concoction with a liberal dose of black pepper. Makes me want to go shoot a deer and give it to him.

Bushie, thanks for taking the time to tour me in that part of Texas. Whittingtons is the best I have ever experienced and if it were not for you, I would still be thinking that the jerky I found at the local convenience store was the best.

The afternoon you shared with me with the BBQ, tour at Johnson city and the Jerky is the best I have had in a long while.

Bushie, what was the place you took me to that was close to Johnson City. I thought that was the best I had ever had. Great treat that I left in your SUV. I was not hungry when I left it there but this afternoon I am

That was sausage and jerky heaven.

Robertson's is good! Although very thin, it has a nice, natural flavor. I stop at the Robertson's north of Austin in Salado, TX, quite often. I really like their ham, too.

I don't know which of more showed up, kid's or adults. Now I keep it a little more "hush hush". The location is in Seminole, OK. They also sell hams and other goodies.

Well boogers, that doesn't work. Just "google it" at Robertsons Hams if you're interested
