How Our Jerky Is Made
Our jerky is minimally processed — just premium grass-fed beef, sliced, marinated, air-dried, and packed fresh. No artificial preservatives, no shortcuts — just clean, honest flavour and high-protein goodness in every bite.
MEAT SOURCING & PROCESSING
At Byron Beef Jerky, we believe great jerky starts with exceptional beef. That’s why we use 100% premium, grass-fed Australian beef, sourced from trusted suppliers who prioritise animal welfare, ethical farming, and full traceability.
Raised on open pastures and feeding on native grasses, our cattle produce lean, tender cuts such as topside and eye of round—perfect for creating jerky with a clean, rich flavour and satisfying chew. Australia’s world-class food safety standards, strict quality controls, and the National Livestock Identification System (NLIS) ensure every bite meets the highest standards of safety, sustainability, and taste.
Our process honours the natural quality of the meat. We hand-select each cut, trim away excess fat, and slice it to the perfect thickness for even drying. The beef is then marinated in natural, flavour-packed seasonings before being air-dried using traditional slow methods to lock in nutrients and concentrate flavour. This careful approach not only preserves the beef’s natural character but also creates a protein-rich, low-fat snack that’s free from unnecessary additives—delivering a clean-label jerky you can trust, from pasture to packet.

the process
STEP 1
Slicing
We start with 100% premium, grass-fed Australian beef. Each cut is hand-selected and sliced to the perfect thickness to ensure tenderness, maximum flavour absorption, and that signature jerky chew.
STEP 2
Marinating
Our signature marinades are crafted from natural ingredients — no artificial preservatives or unnecessary fillers. We let the beef soak up the flavours slowly, creating a deep, rich taste in every bite.
STEP 3
Air Drying
Instead of rushing the process, we air dry our jerky to lock in flavour and maintain the natural integrity of the meat. This slow, traditional method delivers an authentic jerky texture and unbeatable taste.
