{"product_id":"pepper-buffalo-jerky","title":"Pepper Buffalo Jerky – Montana-Made, Dry \u0026 Tough","description":"\u003c!-- BA:PRODUCT-DETAILS:START --\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eM\u0026amp;S Meats Montana is a Rollins, Montana, smokehouse business that traces its operating history to 1945. A local historical account credits Milton and Sylvia Oberg as founders; the dates of their involvement still need clarification. The company’s present-day approach centers on preserving a traditional style of jerky through hand cutting, hand hanging, and careful preparation. Its emphasis is on a substantial chew and distinctive meat flavors rather than a soft, uniform snack, continuing the Flathead Valley tradition described in its company history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePepper Buffalo Jerky offers black-pepper seasoning on buffalo. The maker prepares this whole-muscle jerky by hand, producing pieces that can differ in shape and thickness. Expect a firm, dry bite with a substantial chew. It is a traditional meat snack for people who prefer this texture over soft or tender jerky. All jerky in this listing is processed and packaged in Rollins, Montana, according to the maker. That identifies the finished product’s manufacturing location; it does not establish the growing or raising location of every ingredient.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- BA:PRODUCT-DETAILS:END --\u003e\n\u003c!-- BA:FEATURES:START --\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade and packaged in Rollins, Montana\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeliberately extra-dry, tough old-west texture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand-prepared whole-muscle jerky\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlavor profile: Black-pepper seasoning on buffalo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChoose a 4 oz or 8 oz package\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRefrigerate after opening\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!-- BA:FEATURES:END --\u003e\n\u003c!-- BA:SPECIFICATIONS:START --\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne bag in the selected size: 1\/4 lb (4 oz) or 1\/2 lb (8 oz).
