OUR
JERKY STORY

At Cowboy Chewing Gum, we believe great jerky oughta be more than just something you chew on between meals—it oughta tell a story. A story of grit, fire, and wide-open country. Inspired by legendary cowboys and the untamed spirit of the Old West, every small-batch recipe we make blends bold flavor, premium cuts of beef, and a healthy dose of frontier attitude.

Our trail started back in 1992, long before fancy labels and online carts. We were crafting jerky from deer hams for family and friends, doing it the old-fashioned way. Folks brought the meat, we worked our magic, and we split the finished jerky as payment. Simple, honest, and fair. Turns out, that jerky had a reputation—tender chew, bold flavor, and not a scrap left behind.

Word traveled fast, as good things tend to do. Friends told friends, batches got bigger, and what started as a backyard tradition grew into something bigger than we ever planned. Still, one thing never changed: the way we make our jerky. Today, we sell exclusively through our website so we can keep our hands on every step—quality, consistency, and customer care—just like we always have.

Every batch is handcrafted with care using high-quality, all-natural ingredients. We slow-marinate for deep, rich flavor, then dry it just right for that perfect chew. From sweet heat to smoky spice, each variety is inspired by a cowboy legend—because around here, every bold flavor deserves a hero to ride with it.

Whether you’re out on the trail, grinding through a hard day’s work, or kicking back with good company, Cowboy Chewing Gum brings you a taste of the frontier—one satisfying chew at a time.
