Opened in April 2014, local owners Clint and Laura Hall have found a strong customer base in Galveston natives and tourists alike. Originally founded in Seymour, Tenn., the Beef Jerky Outlet sells the highest quality jerky, freshly made in small batches. Never mass marketed, choices vary from exotic flavors to distinctive beef, pork and chicken blends. Rare offerings include biltong, popularized in South Africa. Incorporating ancient curing processes, this meat is slightly different from jerky in flavor and texture. Never smoked, the popular snack is dried with vinegar in addition to salt. The top selling prime rib flavor, reminiscent of a delicious steak, is sure to please connoisseurs. And crawfish jerky, infused with a delightful bold flavor brings clients as far as Louisiana to stock their cabinets. Pre-made sampler packs make the perfect gift or occasion to taste exotics such as ostrich or wagyu for the first time.
