The brain child of a group of friends and former classmates, this San Diego, CA based company, True Gentleman’s Jerky, is bringing the pizazz back to this classic snack. In an effort to find a healthy alternative to the mass produced jerky, this group of friends took an old family jerky recipe and modified it with new and fresh ingredients. Seeing an opportunity to share their delicious jerky with the public, this group of friends formed True Gentleman’s Jerky in 2013.

The company also hosts booths at local San Diego events; some past events include the Green Flash Brewery Holiday Marketplace and the Little Italy Farmer’s Market. Follow the shop on Facebook to see where they’ll be next, and if you can’t wait for the next event, you can order your jerky online.
