For whatever reason I usually end up preferring the really dirt-cheap stuff. I got some short-run, off-brand shit at Big Lots that I think was named for a race car driver, and it was glorious.

^word ima have to try that

12/21/2008 3:02:08 AM

Haha, I doubt it still exists. They probably had some leftover D-grade meat, and asked Cleetus the 4th string driver if he wanted to put his name on something. I doubt if it ever sold anywhere but Big Lots.

my buddy makes jerky that's fucking amazing, and his rig is elegantly simple


after marinating/seasoning the sirloin strips he sandwiches them between two HVAC intake filters and tapes a box fan to each side so they pass air through it in the same direction...leaves it overnight and BAM!!! tender, succulent beef jerky that hasn't been processed to the point of losing that "beef" quality

You can't beat homemade beef jerky, I agree.

Beef sticks are kinda like jerky. I've tried a lot over the past year. I think chomps is pretty solid. Fatty brand jalapeno is probably my favorite taste wise. Just saw this at costco so tried it...its ok, won't get again though

Will have to keep an eye out for that. Can't say i've seen it

Costcos newest jalapeno beef stick offering. Same macros and chomps and simms. Good price point too(15 for 12 sticks)

Hope they don't suck will report back soon! Any of you mugs tried it?

Update: my new favorite. Spice and flavor of fatty brand, macros of chomp

Honestly these are all pretty good. Sams is 11.98/12, chomps is 18.99/12, aldi is like 12.99/8, warrior 14.99/12. If warrior wasn't available, I'd get chomps. If those 2 not available i'd get simms.

I buy the John Morris Bass Pro Shops steak strips from Bass Pro Shop because the big bag is $12.98 w/ my Bass Pro credit card

anyone tried these? on sale at academy...2oz sticks. basically comes to about 9 10g protein sticks for 12, which decent...picking up some today

^I guess I could take a trip to grapevine and hit up BPS for research purposes if they have a jalapeno flavor

6/9/2026 10:19:10 AM

The phorm sticks are pretty solid. I got 1 pack and then based off the stick i ate, got the other 2 packs they had

6/9/2026 12:27:46 PM

Must keep adding to this!!!
