Original: The #1 Pick for Best Flavor of Beef Jerky

This data comes from our online sales from the past year. For flavors of ranch cut beef jerky and flavors of jerky meat sticks, Original flavor won by a landslide. Looking at just our ranch cut beef jerky, out of all the flavors of beef jerky, Original is most popular followed not too far behind by Peppered, then Teriyaki, then Hot & Sweet. we do have to make a small disclaimer here - our other two flavors of ranch cut beef jerky, Dill Pickle and Pepper Dill Pickle, are relatively new so the numbers aren't likely to be as high. If you want to change these numbers for next year's report to get our Pickle flavors on the board, order them here! Dill Pickle Style Beef Jerky | Pepper Dill Pickle Style Beef Jerky

Moving on to our Meat Sticks, the chosen best flavor of jerky is again Original, making up almost 50% of our Top 4 flavors. However, now we get some representation for our Pickle flavors of beef jerky - Pepper Dill Pickle comes in second for most popular flavors of jerky meat sticks! Pepperoni and Teriyaki come next, with Dill Pickle and Peppered not making it on to the board.

When we look at these numbers, if we had to determine the best flavor of beef jerky, it would definitely be Original. About 1 in 3 purchases over the past year were for Original flavor beef jerky or snack sticks.

This blog is a fun dive into the best beef jerky flavors according to sales and social media feedback. It’s great to see the top picks like Original, Teriyaki, and Peppered flavors highlighted and to learn that the new Dill Pickle flavors are making their way up the ranks. I love how the data is broken down between jerky and meat sticks, showing how preferences differ a bit for each. I’ll definitely be keeping an eye on the Dill Pickle flavors, and I might even have to place an order to see if they can make it to the top! My personal favorite is Maple Beef Jerky. What’s everyone else’s favorite flavor?
