September means football is officially back—and with it, the return of one of our favorite traditions: tailgating. Whether you’re heading to the stadium, meeting up with friends in a parking lot, or hosting a backyard watch party at home, one thing’s for sure: the food needs to be just as exciting as the game.
That’s where Hillbilly’s Jerky comes in.
We’re not just a snack; we’re a tailgating essential. Our bold, smoky flavors, hearty texture, and grab-and-go convenience make us the perfect addition to your game day game plan.
Jerky: The Unsung Hero of Tailgating Snacks
Let’s talk about why jerky deserves a permanent spot in your cooler or snack basket. First, it doesn’t need to be cooked or prepped. While other folks are struggling to fire up a grill or warm up wings, you can just rip open a bag and get snacking. No mess. No fuss. Just pure, flavorful protein, ready to go.
And unlike other snacks that are heavy on crumbs or short on satisfaction, jerky delivers real fuel. It’s packed with protein, so it keeps you going through all four quarters (and overtime, if needed). It also travels well—no cooler space required—so you can throw it in your tailgate kit and forget about it until hunger strikes.
Shareable, Packable, Unstoppable
Tailgating is all about sharing the love—and the snacks. Our resealable bags are perfect for passing around the crowd, so everyone can grab a piece or two (or five) between cheers. Heading out with the whole crew? Bring a mix of flavors so everyone gets their favorite.
From Original to Sweet & Spicy to our fan-favorite Peppered variety, we’ve got a flavor for every kind of fan. Some people like it hot, others want something smoky and sweet. Either way, we’ve got your lineup covered.
No Grill? No Problem.
Not every tailgate comes with a grill or a full buffet setup—and that’s totally fine. Jerky doesn’t need heat, a fridge, or a plate. It’s one of the easiest tailgate snacks to prep because it’s already done. All you need to do is open the bag and enjoy. If you’re traveling light or trying to keep things simple this season, jerky is the answer.
Fuel for the Whole Day
Chips, pretzels, and dip are fun, but they don’t exactly fill you up. Jerky, on the other hand, provides long-lasting energy and real sustenance. If you’re going to be out tailgating for hours before the game, you want something that keeps you going without slowing you down.
Plus, if you’re trying to eat a little better this fall, jerky checks all the boxes: low carb, high protein, and loaded with flavor.
Homegating? We Got You Too.
Tailgating doesn’t have to happen in a parking lot. If you’re watching from home this season, jerky still makes the perfect game day snack. Keep a few bags in the pantry so you’re always ready when the game comes on. It also pairs great with a cold beer and some football banter.
Stock Up Before Kickoff
Football season is long—and delicious. Make sure you’re ready for every snap, every touchdown, and every last-second win with Hillbilly’s Jerky in your lineup.
