Frequently Asked Questions - Beef Jerky Jerks | < < BACK |  | |
|
Are you the same jerks that are producing German Relish? What's up with that? That would be us. A neighbor brought us a sample, and we couldn't stop sampling. When we passed it around, everyone had the same reaction - even the "I'm not a relish person" people. So we called it Uncommonly Delicious German Relish (from our Italian neighbor) and started cranking it out. So give it a try and let us know what you think! |
| | A Couple o' Jerks?? What's the real name of the company That's it, really. I guess it proves there are no limits to what you can name your company!
|
| | Why the weird name? Are all of you really jerks? We wanted to be Two Nice Guys, but that was already taken (they make pizzas). Actually only a couple of us are jerks, but that's the whole company for now. We hope to expand and hire some "meat heads" before too long. |
| | How does your price compare with the competition? Jerky prices are all over the map, but we are generally very competitive with the national brands, even though A Couple o’ Jerks is really made by hand, and it uses superior ingredients (hence the better taste!) |
| | Are these really “frequently asked questions”? Well, they’re really more like “questions we don’t mind answering” (QWDMA). But we’re pretty sure someone thought about asking them, and FAQ just sounds better. In fact, if you ask a new question, frequently, it might show up as a frequently asked question….as long as it is also a QWDMA. |
| | Can I buy directly from the factory if I visit the World Headquarters in Labadie? Actually, you can, and its a beautiful drive out Highway T to the Jerkery. We sell CJ 6_Paks at a discounted price, or you can pick up a single bag of jerky at the Labadie Market next door and check out the Hawthorne Inn and Three Brothers restaurants, after you buy some jerky. |
| | How do you control your quality? Ever notice the variety in most national brand jerky packs? Some is OK, and the next bite is like eating a rubber chicken. We're not sure how they do that, but we just do the same thing, over and over – slice quality meat, marinate and dry it, and ship it out to our customers while it is still fresh. And then there’s the constant taste testing – but someone has to do it! (Factoid: Even our “mistakes” are pretty good.) |
| | How long have you been in business? A Couple o' Jerks has been a St. Louis tradition since.......late 2008. OK, we're the new kids on the block, but don't write us off without taking our challenge - Just try us once. Then go back to your old brand....if you can! |
| | What makes you so special? Well, if you're from around St. Louis, you will appreciate the fact that our jerky is locally produced. And no matter where you live, you will enjoy the great taste and freshness. Our product has no preservatives or added MSG, so if you want to save your jerky for a couple of years, you probably want the petrified stuff the other guys sell. But if you're buying jerky to eat it, our flavor will leave them in the dust! |
| | Do you have lots of other flavors, like the other guys? We believe “A Couple o’ Jerks” IS a flavor! Anybody can add a little sugar or barbeque sauce, but they can’t duplicate the ACoJ taste.
That being said, we have developed a Mild(er) blend for those among you that like our flavor, but can’t quite handle the heat. Don’t worry, the Original Recipe isn’t going to cool down; in fact we are also considering a “wild” version for the true fire eaters out there. And believe it or not, we now have a Wimpy recipe! Let us know what you like, and stay tuned. |
| | Who designed your spiffy package? Hey, glad you noticed. We like it too!
