Schools - Out - For Summer….

Another school year is coming to an end!  How quickly the days change to weeks…the weeks to months… and before we know it a year has come and gone.  They say time flies when you’re having fun, but we all know there are challenges along the way.  Making memories with your family happens when the most mundane tasks turn into joyful memories. Think back to your childhood! - and oh, those special memories will reappear…

Memorial Day is coming which marks the first sign of summer.  Do you have travel plans for the summer or do ball games, jobs or summer activities keep you close to home?  This time of year, there is always a need for a healthy snack that doesn't melt with the summer heat.  Smoking Gun Jerky of Nebraska has you covered!  Our tender and delicious Beef Jerky is a tasty snack that doesn’t require a cooler to keep it fresh.  Choose a sampler box with assorted flavors or stock up on your favorites like Applewood, Wicked Awesome, Maple & Brown Sugar, or the original Mild Hickory!  Order online or pick up in store for a fresh selection of small batch nutritious jerky made with taste and love- from your favorite specialty jerky supplier.  Hiking, baseball, (and EVERY outdoor adventure) sitting around a campfire or traveling near or far, you can enjoy a high quality no-mess option with Smoking Gun Jerky from Lincoln, NE!

In a recent study of the snack food industry, sales show that processed snack food sales are down.  Consumers are looking for a healthier alternative to processed foods (meaning those containing high sugar, fat, added colors and dyes and carb counts) that don’t contribute to a quality product.  Check out our nutrition facts and compare!  A  1 oz. serving of Smoking  Gun Jerky contains 30 calories, 1 gram of total fat and less than 4% (105 mg) of sodium.  There are no added preservatives, colors, nitrates or nitrites in our jerky.  You can be assured you are getting a top quality American raised beef product that exceeds quality standards.  Simply stated - we are a small Midwest  business that you can count on for quality jerky snacks made in the USA!

So, what are you waiting for?  Skip convenience store brands, pack your bags or your backpacks and get ready for some summer fun!  We know you will love our jerky, and we guarantee it is one of the healthiest snacks around!

Don’t miss out on making summer memories no matter what your plans!  

It’s the good, the bad and sometimes the ugly that make the best memories.  Looking back on some of those from my own life adventures, the situations that seemed the worst sometimes bring back the biggest laughs (though not in the moment) – and it all goes by way too quickly!

Enjoy the season, make life fun – time stops for no one!
