The Jerky Shoppe™ started operations 12 years ago as a privately owned full-service meat market in Maple Grove Minnesota, known as Maple Grove Meats, Inc. After successfully establishing ourselves at that location we began shifting focus toward State Fairs, Sportsman Shows and other large community events in the upper Midwest.

Our high quality and great tasting meat products allowed us 8 years of steady growth after our initial startup. We then built a federally approved and USDA regulated meat processing plant in Becker Minnesota in 1996. We have an on-site USDA inspector and an operation that has allowed us to serve the upper Midwest with the highest quality USDA inspected meat and jerky products available on the market.

Our "start to finish" meat processing operation sets us apart from other off/online Jerky and meat product retailers. We hand pick our meats for processing. We then cook, cure, smoke, vacuum seal, label and freeze our products. Most other Jerky and meat product retailers simply purchase their stock from meat processors, like us, and resell them to the public.

Potential customers can rest easy that Jerky and meat products purchased from us have not been through other layers of distribution, price padding and possible product and package mishandling. Our products are processed and maintained at our climate controlled location in Minnesota until ready for shipment to the customer.

We are excited and eager to move into the next phase of serving other geographical regions. Please stay tuned to our Web site for updates and news of future products, services and opportunities.

Thank you!
