What Does #JerkyDay Mean?

National Jerky Day celebrates the dried, cured meat snack that has been around in various forms for thousands of years. Indigenous peoples across the Americas were making jerky long before it became a gas station staple. Today the market has expanded way beyond beef to include turkey, salmon, mushroom, and dozens of other varieties.

How to Use #JerkyDay

Show off your jerky stash or share a homemade jerky recipe if you make your own. Tagging a local jerky brand or small producer is a great way to support small businesses while joining in on the day.
