How to Start, Run & Grow a Profitable Beef Jerky Business From Home!


I am a retired butcher; I worked with meat products for 37 long years, so the meat has been a big part of my life. As a hobby, I started experimenting with making various types of jerky in my free times, and soon I realized this is a very addictive, fun and rewarding hobby. The way I discovered the rewarding part was when one day just for fun I set up a table at the local flea market to see if anyone would be interested in trying my jerky. I took roughly about 25 lbs. supply with me. At first, I just ask random people if they wanted to try a sample of my creation. 6 out of 10 people I asked agreed and most of them liked the taste of the jerky enough that they bought from me. To my surprise, in just two hours I was completely sold out with enough request and orders for the next week that I was blown away.

Long story short, I became a regular at the flea market and typically sold about 150-250 lbs. of jerky each weekend. From there I was approached by a grocery company that sells to gas stations and convenience stores in 5 states. But to sell to this grocery company, I had to come up with high-quality packaging, which I did. It took about two months to get all the details worked out, and then I started to wholesale to this company. Their average monthly order grew from just 500lbs the first months to little over 2500 lbs. in just five months. Once again I was blown away with the demand.

Fast forward nine years, I sold my business for a decent price and decided to retire and enjoy life a little.

I wrote this book to show you that if I can do it, I know anyone can. I was not even a good cook if you don't believe me just ask Ann, my wife of 35 years, she will tell you.
