Jerky Outpost, Valle Crucis

Very friendly staff happily answered all my questions and offered suggestions, including accounting for my dietary needs (gluten). I left with three bags of jerky from companies that are new to me and I'm excited to try them. I was told by staff that there were samples available but I neglected to try them as I got carried away looking at all the options. The jerky is certainly not cheap - most was in the $8.99 to $11.99 range. Still, I like trying new jerky varieties and my visit met my expectations.

What a wonderful stop on our trip! Damon is very knowledgeable about his craft. We enjoyed listening to him as he offered samples of various flavored jerky. Not only was the jerky excellent, but overall a fun shop to explore. Had we not been on a schedule, we would have stayed even longer! Probably best we didn’t, as we left with five bags! 😆 Jerky outpost is certainly marked for our return trip.
