Our Story: Australian Smoked Beef Jerky
At BBQ Jerky, we make premium smoked beef jerky for people who want real smoke… real flavour and a proper jerky chew. We use Australian beef and smoke our jerky rather than simply dehydrating it, creating the distinctive flavour that has become the heart of BBQ Jerky.
What started by sharing our jerky with local neighbours and friends grew from a passion for producing beef jerky that was different from the mass-produced products commonly found on supermarket shelves.
Our smoked beef jerky is produced in Coffs Harbour, NSW. We prepare our marinades from scratch and allow the beef plenty of time to absorb the flavours before it reaches the smoker.
Smoking is what makes our jerky different. Instead of relying on dehydrators, we use barbecue smokers and selected smoking woods to develop genuine smoky flavour while creating the satisfying chew we want from great beef jerky.
Today, BBQ Jerky has grown beyond jerky, with a range that includes pork crackle, barbecue rubs, smoked sea salts, barbecue sauces and flavour-packed condiments.
Through all that growth, the goal remains simple: make great Australian products packed with flavour and give our customers something worth coming back for.
BBQ Jerky is proudly Australian owned, and we believe great flavour starts with quality ingredients and taking the time to do things properly. Our beef jerky is made using Australian beef, carefully marinated and smoked to create the distinctive flavour and satisfying chew our customers know us for.
From our Coffs Harbour home, we continue to develop products for people who love barbecue, smoking and big flavours. Alongside our Australian smoked beef jerky, our range includes pork crackle, barbecue rubs, smoked sea salts, barbecue sauces, jalapeƱo jellies and hot chilli oils.
Whether you’re shopping online or discovering us locally, we’re committed to producing quality Australian products and delivering the flavour that BBQ Jerky is all about.
We make our Australian smoked beef jerky with a process built around real smoke and big flavour. We prepare our marinades from scratch, then allow the beef to marinate for 24 to 48 hours so the flavours have plenty of time to develop.
Once marinated, the beef goes into our barbecue smokers for approximately 6 to 8 hours. We use selected smoking woods to create the genuine smoky flavour that makes BBQ Jerky different.
We don’t simply rely on dehydrators to make our jerky. Our smoking process gives our beef jerky its distinctive barbecue flavour and satisfying chew. It’s a slower process, but that’s exactly how we want it.
BBQ Jerky is different to most beef jerky on the market as we truly BBQ smoke ours to pack it with flavour we do not use dehydrators and you can taste the difference.
