Beef Jerky has been around since the sixteenth century, early American settlers used to dry out and season meats to preserve them for long travels. The term for drying and seasoning meat is from the Spanish word Charqui, which with an American accent is pronounced “jerky”. As years passed jerky was prepared for its taste rather than out of necessity. Beef jerky has evolved much sense its inception. Many flavors, styles and different types of meats have been prepared as jerky and now is one of the world’s leading snacks. Beef jerky has become extremely popular for its fun to eat flavors, extremely long shelf life and its protein value. Beef jerky is one of the healthiest snacks that Americans enjoy today.
Gary Graybeal, founder of Holston Mountain Beef Jerky, started out twenty years ago in Bluff City Tennessee preparing and seasoning his own brand of jerky for personal use. He started out with a single dehydrator and his own recipe for seasoning. Soon Gary decided to share his pastime with some close friends and relatives, whom all loved his dehydrated creations. Inspired by the demand created by his friends and family, Gary expanded his operation from recreational to commercial and started offering his delicious jerky to the world. He founded Holston Mountain Beef Jerky nineteen years ago and has been selling his jerky to the world ever since. Gary now offers his jerky in five different flavors, original, teriyaki, peppered, Hawaiian, and barbeque all of which are handmade and packaged by its founder to ensure that every batch of jerky made holds up to the Holston Mountain standards that Gary lives by.
