The Hierarchy of Protein

By Steve's founder, Steve Liberati

As with everything in life, there’s a good-better-best when it comes to protein.

Much like the houses we live in, the cars we drive and the clothes we wear, purchasing choices are based on goals, needs and desires.

When I’m craving a juicy steak and I’ve got a grill nearby, I choose a grass-fed bone-in rib eye. In the dead of winter when I’m on the stovetop, it’s grass-fed ground meat. When entertaining a large group, I’ll make my famous sausage and peppers and skip the roll.

For me, Sausage-Ground Beef-Steak is the good-better-best of fresh beef protein choices. I view my on-the-go protein choices in the same good-better-best way.

GOOD: PROTEIN POWDER/BARS

High quality whey powders are better than skipping protein all together. When shopping, check the deck for fewer ingredients and steer clear of any that include soy. The best brands will tout non-GMO and hormone free right on the label. Others claim to be “naturally sweetened,” but ingredients like maltodextrin and xanthan gum are anything but natural. Of course, the better brands are bigger bucks. I like to go old school and eat my protein rather than drink it!

BETTER YET: MEAT STICKS

I love Beef Sticks made the old fashioned way. We dry, smoke and spice our meat to safely preserve it without using additives. Our Stix are clean and delicious pure protein.

Some companies add water to their meat sticks to add weight. This scrupulous practice is commonly referred to as “pennies from heaven” since it is an inexpensive way for the manufacturer to boost net weight and net profit. You won’t get watery Stix from Steve’s.

Starches can also be added for preservation and flavor enhancement. When in doubt, check for ingredients that you can’t recognize or pronounce.

BEST: WHOLE MUSCLE MEAT JERKY

The meat for our Jerky is sourced from New Zealand, where grass grows year round and does not require chemical treatment. Our cows are pasture raised, grass-fed and never receive hormones or antibiotics. Ever.

Handcrafted in very small batches, we consider trimming, spicing, marinating, curing and smoking an art form. Our unique vacuum package preserves our jerky while keeping it moist, and eliminates the need for preservatives and additives.

Nothing quite satisfies primal cravings like a tender bone-in ribeye grilled over an open flame. When that’s not practical, reach forJerky. It’s REAL MEAT made by cutting strips of whole muscle beef and drying it for many hours at a time, for a difference you can taste!

What REAL Customers Are Saying!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

-Gerard (Verified Buyer) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“Steve's in on point with the delicious, clean jerky. Very happy to have run across the website. I haven't had and variety of jerky from Steve's that wasn't really good.”

-Tara (Verified Buyer) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“I have tried jerky from a variety of brands and I keep coming back to Steve’s. It is by far the best jerky available in the market today!”

-Clayton (Verified Buyer) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“Okay. Never eat jerky. But, needed a quick protein kick for 100 plus mile kayak/wilderness camping trip this Fall. No cooler. Had to pack super light. This is so good! Sliced perfectly thin - so, easy to chew. Seasoning is perfect. Low sugar, high protein. This will be a staple for adventures to come!”

-Shannon (Verified Buyer) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“I love the flavor of the buffalo chicken jerky. I fell in love with it the first time I tried it at a trade fair a couple years back and I have not found another chicken jerky out there that even comes close to this one. The high salt content is great post workout.”

-Kelly (Verified Buyer) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“This jerky is unbelievably delicious. I do not eat beef, so it's hard to find a jerky on the market that I can eat as a quick, protein-filled snack. The taste is so pure, and compares to nothing else I have tried.” -Oliver (Verified Buyer)⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“Delicious!!! I strongly recommend these for healthy, tasty, pure protein snacks (or lunch, with a salad). Love that the sugar content is NONE! :-)”

-Justin (Verified Buyer)⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Steve's Story

It all started with a KIT and a KID. In 2007, our founder Steve Liberati was working for his father’s exterminating business, but his real passion was nutrition and fitness. After getting to know some young teen athletes on his inner-city route, he was moved to invite them to workout with him in a local park. From the conditions they were living in, Steve knew their recreational options were limited and potentially dangerous.

Before long, Steve had a pack of kids he trained regularly with whatever equipment he could fit in the trunk of his car. A firm believer in Paleo nutrition, Steve wanted to provide a nutritious lunch for his young athletes that they could eat at school. So he packaged beef jerky, nuts and berries to stay fresh in their backpack. And our flagship product the PaleoKit was born.

Knowing he had stumbled upon a solution for crossfitters and fitness warriors looking for portable options, Steve started selling his PaleoKits online. Fourteen years and over 75 products later, athletes, outdoor enthusiasts and health conscience people around the globe have made Steve’s their favorite on-the-go clean eating options.

Much has changed since those early park days, but our mission is still the same. Every day after school, about 20 young athletes from the hard streets of Camden City, NJ pour into “Steve’s Club Camden,” the gym at Steve’s. They lift weights, jump on boxes, climb ropes and do pull ups--as a way to pull out of the perils of street life. Some of the older teens even work next door in the warehouse where Steve’s are made, packed and shipped.

Although the company has grown, one thing will never change. Helping at-risk youth realize their potential through fitness, nutrition and leadership skills is the driving force behind Steve’s. Each purchase changes lives--with a portion of the proceeds goes directly to Steve's Club Camden, our 501c3 non-profit.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes Steve's Jerky better than other similar other similar products?

First off, we haven't found any other similar products. There are several "grass fed" beef jerky and meat bars on the market but ours is different for three main reasons.

1. NO sugar, sweeteners or "weird" ingredients. Other brands use sugar, sweeteners and weird ingredients to soften their jerky that way it does not chew like shoe leather. Luckily for you, we figured out a way to make amazing beef jerky without any sugar or sweeteners. How? Don't ask. We have a secret recipe with a very cool history that goes way back and as the saying goes, we ain't sharing it with anyone! Besides would you ever put sugar, or sweeteners on your steak? We certainly hope not.

2. We make our jerky in small batches by hand while other jerky companies use high tech machines and automation to tumble, pulverize and process their meat to lower their labor costs and increase efficiencies. We don't compromise on the quality of our jerky and while you may never find our jerky in retail stores you can be assured that when you order from Steve's you are getting the freshest and cleanest jerky around directly on your doorstep.

3. Our beef is actually 100% grass fed and finished while others often claim "grass fed" only to finish the cattle on grain for the last few months of their lives. This process of grain finishing is enough to negatively alter the biological makeup of the animal, causing a more inflammatory product with fewer vitamins and nutrients.
What are the ingredients in your jerky?

Original: Beef Jerky (Beef, Sea Salt, Paprika, Beet Powder, Black Pepper, Garlic Powder).

Is your jerky certified gluten-free?

No. While ALL of our products contain NO gluten, dairy or soy, they are not made in an independently certified/dedicated gluten-free facility; nor are they made in a facility free of nuts. If you want more information on the ingredients we use, you can find them on our site under each product's individual listing in our store.
Is this jerky keto-friendly?

Yes. Steve's Jerky is perfect for anyone on a ketogenic or low carb diet. Each serving has just ZERO sugars and ZERO carbs!

In fact, one of the reasons we created this in the first place is that we couldn’t find a healthy jerky to fit into our low carb lifestyles, and we missed eating good jerky more than anything else.
Is this jerky non-GMO?

Yes, all of our ingredients are non-GMO.
Does your jerky contain nitrates?

No.
Does your jerky contain MSG?

No.
Is your jerky chopped and formed?

Heck no! We use protein-rich, whole-muscle meat sliced by hand and slow smoked to perfection!
What if I don't like the taste after trying it?

We don't want you to order anything that you aren't 100% happy with. Therefore, we have a 60 Day 100% money-back guarantee so if you aren't thrilled with your order just let us know and we'll refund you without any questions asked.
