Beef jerky isn’t just a snack – it’s an unsung hero of American history! From fueling the Lewis and Clark Expedition in 1803 to sustaining pioneers on the Oregon Trail and soldiers during the Civil War, jerky played a crucial role in exploration, survival, and expansion. Crafting jerky began with techniques like smoking and salting, passed down through generations as a vital food source. Today, Matt-Hat Jerky keeps this heritage alive, offering high-quality, preservative-free jerky that embodies tradition and excellence. Discover the history behind every bite and taste the legacy with Matt-Hat Jerky!
The significance of jerky extended far beyond this expedition. It sustained pioneers traveling west on the Oregon Trail, fueled miners during the Gold Rush 💰, and beef jerky was a common ration during the Civil War.
Beef jerky was a staple food for soldiers on both sides of the Civil War. It was a basic food for soldiers, who salted and boiled beef or pork to extend its shelf life and dried it flat to make it easy to carry. Soldiers often carried jerky with them on long marches, and it provided a much-needed source of protein and energy.
Jerky became a staple of the Old West and allowed settlers, frontiers men, and cowboys to move west into uncharted territory. 🤠 Cowboys prepared the beef jerky through a variety of techniques that included sun-drying, smoking, and salting.
In each of these pivotal moments in American history, beef jerky was more than just food; it was a lifeline, vital for survival during exploration, conflict, and expansion.
This is more than just jerky. It's a piece of our family's history, a testament to uncompromised quality, and our love for good, honest food.
