I recently became aware in a supermarket in this 75g packs and wondered about the not quite favorable price. Nevertheless, my curiosity was piqued, what it is, how it tastes and whether the high price is justified.
First of all, I looked at Wikipedia and let there that it is a US-based family-run company with German roots of Brandenburg, and about 1500 employees worldwide.
Then I had a look at their website jacklinks.com times. A really clearly and creatively designed website in 19 languages. The mouse pointer changes when he goes through a link in a buffalo head. Under the menu item COMPANY can open a book and leaf through it and read about the origins of the company.
It was the Indians who invented the Jerky. They cut the meat into slices of buffalo, dried it in the hot summer sun and smoked it over the fire. then the delicious meat was still infused with local herbs and spices of the season.
The non-perishable meat was a nutritious food for hunting and life in the wilderness.
But Jack Link was the one who brought Beef Jerky in the whole world. 1885 could be his family settled in the far north of Wisconsin. From the Old World the links brought recipes for a variety of tasty meat dishes. It must have been on the hunt in the vast forests well as the Beef Jerky proved indispensable companion. It was easy to transport in the saddlebag, Shelf Stable, made full and fit, because it contained a lot of protein and little fat and of course tasted delicious.
Because Jack Link shared love, the loggers and farmers came soon in the neighborhood on the taste and could not get enough of it.
So prepare to Jack Link more and more Beef Jerky. At some point he began to pack it in bags.
So Jack Links is the leading supplier of meat snacks in the US and internationally the fastest growing companies in this field.
And since January 2008, there is now the European headquarters in Berlin.

Taste is notoriously different, I personally like the succulent Chicken Bites Flamin Buffalo Style delicious. Very handy, I find the resealable snack bag for traveling, so all very fresh and the flavor remains in the bag. As for the price, of course, everyone has to decide for himself whether he is willing to pay as much for it.
The taste and the quality of her, I can recommend the delicious snacks definitely.
