The simple truth is that it's easier on the teeth! Ground beef gives us a tender chew without fail. And thanks to our mixing process, it's not just marinated, it's got that Retherford flavor in every single morsel. It's always the perfect bite.'

You bet! We are proud to say all of our jerky is 100% gluten free. 

Yes, all of our jerky has MSG. However, this is something we are working on possibly changing!

No, we use liquid smoke in all our jerky products.

Sorry, pardner! We are happy to make our ground beef jerky available for sale, and we are thrilled when you bring us your processed and ground wild game, but seeing as beef isn’t wild game and is somethin’ we already sell, we have to say no here. Please bring us only wild game.

Yes, we do custom flavors! We will work with you to make sure your custom flavor is to your satisfaction. Some of our custom flavors are:

Ghost Pepper, Hot and Spicy BBQ, Garden Pizza, Strawberry Rhubarb and Rhubarb

Processed wild game we receive is mostly ground deer/goose meat that has suet or some other fat ground into the meat. The meat needs to have some sort of fat, otherwise you will just get a bunch of dust after it is dehydrated. All of your ground deer/goose meat is made into jerky with the flavors that you choose. We label and package the finished product in ¼ pound packages that are vacuumed sealed for freshness.

We sure do! We use the “if it fits it ships” from the USPS. 

Yes, within a 30-mile radius of Joy, IL 61260. We will work with you on delivery day and pick-up times.

When you order on our website, you can choose shipping, pickup, or local delivery options.
