We often refer to taxes as something we can count on – like the old saying “nothing is certain in life besides death & taxes”.  The other certainties in life, (our opinion - lesser known) is that Smoking Gun Jerky of Nebraska brand beef jerky is an anxiety alternative, a delicious diversion and a nutritious snack attack option!  Our flavors are an asset – like our Mild Hickory, Teriyaki, Wicked Awesome, Maple & Brown Sugar, Applewood, plus what else can be such a  (healthy) satisfying part of your day?
