Australia's Leading Premium Beef Jerky & Biltong Specialists - The Jerky Co.
We like to think we know a thing or two about beef jerky (I mean it's in our name for crying out loud). But creating premium and fresh Australian beef jerky means more than just whacking any old cut of meat into a dehydrator and calling it a day. We understand that good things take time. Great things need that little something special. Creating that perfect piece of chewy jerky from a lean cut of beef is where The Jerky Co. really thrives.
Our family recipes stretch back more than 20 years, allowing us to pack loads of amazing flavour into our beef which is marinated for over 24 hours. We pride ourselves on creating Aussie beef jerky with premium cuts of beef and with a range of different flavours that'll be sure to tickle your fancy. From Sweet BBQ to Extra Hot, we're always looking for premium flavours to add to our Jerky repertoire.
Top Quality Meat
It's no secret that to make a tasty piece of beef jerky, you need a top-quality lean cut of beef. That's why all of our meat used in our air dried meat products at The Jerky Co. is MSA grade beef. Using premium cuts of Australian beef allows us to create the tastiest, juiciest and freshest beef jerky that Australia has ever seen. There's never been a better time to support local, so this is why we choose to use high-quality Australian beef in all of our different flavours and products. On top of this, we're constantly searching for ways to improve upon the quality of our jerky, so that you're consistently getting a mind-blowing sensation with every bite. With sprinklings of delicious soy sauce, garlic powder, black pepper, onion powder and brown sugar as just a few of the tantalising additions to our beef jerky, it's safe to say your mouth is in for a wild ride when you pop a piece in.
Forget What You Know About Jerky
Although you might associate jerky with a forgotten shelf at an old service station, The Jerky Co is breaking down the barriers on what you thought jerky could be. We want to switch up the story and show you that beef jerky can be damn tasty (and nutritious too). With wholesome and nutritious snacks produced with the whole family in mind, The Jerky Co. hopes to form a special part of a balanced diet for kids and adults alike. Trust us. If you love beef jerky, you're going to love the quality Australian beef that we've spent hours transforming into premium beef jerky.
What About Our Other Premium Air Dried Meat Snacks?
Although we're well known for our beef jerky, our expertise doesn't just stop at our tasty and chewy jerky. Far from it. When we got into the air dried meat game, we aimed to create tasty, fresh and protein-rich snacks of all shapes and sizes. So if you're more of a fan of beef biltong, then we've got you covered there too. If you're not into slicing the meat yourself, we have the option of both unsliced and sliced meat in all of our different flavours! We've also got snap sticks, droewors, and more to keep you stocked up on your favourite meaty snacks.
Feeling Hungry Yet?
Now if you've now got a craving for some lean meat, we don't blame you. If you think reading about jerky makes you hungry, you should try working in a warehouse that smells of all sorts of delicious things on a daily basis! Check out our range of premium Australian beef jerky in our online store and we guarantee you'll be licking your screen in no time.

How to Pack a Healthy Lunchbox (That Your Kids Will Actually Eat)
Let’s be honest, packing a lunchbox that’s both healthy and actually eaten is no small feat. One day your kid’s all about carrot sticks and hummus. The next? You’re greeted with a barely-touched Crunch & Sip container, a Vegemite sandwich with two sad bites taken out of it, and an empty spot where the little Freddo used to be. Classic. If that sounds familiar, don’t worry – packing a balanced, fuss-free lunchbox is absolutely doable. It just comes down to getting the right mix of fuel and flavour. What makes a healthy lunchbox? A well-rounded lunchbox doesn’t need to be Instagram-worthy or packed with gourmet prep, it just needs to be balanced. Ideally, it includes: A carbohydrate source for energy Some fruit and/or veggies for fibre and nutrients A solid protein to keep them full and fuelled And a small treat so they feel satisfied Now let’s break it down with ideas they’ll actually eat. Carbs: Fuel for the day Carbohydrates give kids the quick-release energy they need to get moving, learning, and playing. But the trick is choosing the kind that doesn’t burn off in 20 minutes. Go for wholegrain or complex carb options when you can. Things like wholemeal wraps, mini pita pockets, leftover pasta salad, or even half a sandwich with seeded bread. For kids who don’t love bread, try rice crackers, corn thins, or a homemade banana muffin with oats and fruit. These options are familiar, easy to eat, and give them the energy to power through the day, without the sugar spike (and crash) that comes with more processed snacks. Fruit & veg: Crunch, colour and fibre You don’t need a rainbow every day, but a few smart fruit and veggie picks can make all the difference, especially when they taste good enough to get eaten. Sweet fruits like apples, strawberries, grapes (cut if needed), or mandarin segments are easy wins, but you can level them up with simple twists. Try apple slices with a swipe of school-safe peanut butter, or pack a few strawberries with a dollop of Greek yoghurt and a sprinkle of granola for crunch. Veggies are a tougher sell, but they don’t have to be boring. Crunchy options like cucumber sticks, baby carrots, cherry tomatoes or sugar snap peas are a good start, but pairing them with a tasty dip can make all the difference. Think hummus, tzatziki, or even a swipe of cream cheese. Wraps are another great disguise: load them up with chicken and salad, then slice into pinwheels for something that feels more like a snack than a salad. Protein: The missing piece in most lunchboxes Here’s where a lot of lunchboxes fall short. While carbs are great for quick energy, protein is what keeps kids full and focused through the whole day. It digests more slowly, which helps with satiety, energy stability, and concentration. It also supports muscle growth, brain development, and recovery after sport or PE. If you want to fuel your kid’s day properly, protein needs to be part of the plan. Luckily, adding it to the lunch box doesn’t have to mean complicated prep. Go for: A boiled egg A yoghurt pouch or tub Cheese sticks or cubes Leftover grilled chicken or tuna Or – our favourite – beef jerky and biltong Beef jerky is high in protein, low in sugar, and doesn’t need a fridge. It’s tasty, super easy to pack, and a great alternative to processed snacks that leave kids hungry an hour later. Plus, it’s actually something they’ll want to eat. The Jerky Co’s protein-backed lunchbox heroes We’ve had more than a few little jerky fans weigh in over the years, and these are the tried-and-true winners for lunchbox duty: Lean biltong Soft, tender, and super easy to chew, biltong is a go-to for younger kids or anyone who’s not into tougher snacks. Still packed with protein, still big on flavour. Traditional jerky Simple, savoury, and full of that real beefy goodness. Traditional jerky is a lunchbox staple for older kids or anyone who likes a bit of chew. Also available in sweet BBQ, a milder flavour that’s always a crowd-pleaser. Fruit jerky salad Made from 100% real Australian fruit, with no added sugar or preservatives. It’s chewy, naturally sweet, and feels like a treat, without the sugar crash of typical packaged snacks. This fruit jerky salad is perfect on its own or paired with some cheese or yoghurt. Safe, simple and seriously good All our snacks are proudly made right here in Australia using premium-quality meat and fruit. No shortcuts, no mystery ingredients, and definitely no nasties. That means no artificial flavours, no preservatives, and no added sugar where it doesn’t belong. Just clean, honest snacks you can feel good about packing. Most of our range is also nut-free and dairy-free (always check the label to be sure), which makes them a safe and easy option for school lunchboxes, especially in allergy-aware classrooms. Take the stress out of lunchbox packing You don’t need to reinvent the wheel, just keep it balanced, simple, and packed with flavour. A solid protein, a slow-release carb, something fresh, and a snack they actually like. That’s it. Add a water bottle, zip it up, and you’re good to go. No slicing, no bribing, no sad leftovers to clean out. Ready to take the stress out of school lunches?

Frequently asked questions Q. Is jerky too tough for young kids? A. Not at all. Our lean biltong is a softer, easier-to-chew option that’s great for younger kids or those new to air-dried meats. You can also slice jerky into smaller pieces to suit their age and chewing ability. Q. Do these snacks meet school allergy policies? A. Most of our range is nut-free and dairy-free, but always check the label just in case. They’re a great alternative in nut-free classrooms or allergy-aware households. Q. What if my kid’s a fussy eater? A. Start with milder flavours like traditional jerky or sweet BBQ. These are savoury, simple, and usually a hit with even the pickiest little snackers. Q. Is fruit jerky healthier than regular fruit snacks? A. Yes, our fruit salad jerky is made from 100% Australian fruit with no added sugar or preservatives. Unlike many packaged fruit snacks, it’s just real fruit, naturally sweet and packed with fibre. Q. How long does jerky last in a lunchbox? A. All day. As long as it’s kept in a cool, dry place, it’ll be fresh and safe to eat by lunchtime. No refrigeration needed.
