Ohl Style Beef Jerky
WE TAKE PRIDE IN SELECTING THE FINEST MEATS, ALL HAND-SLICED ON SITE.
John started his dream of making the best jerky in Texas when he was in fifth grade. For years he worked tirelessly until he perfected his meat and started selling it to his friends at the high school he attended. His jerky started to grow in popularity and from there he started the business he has today.
Here at Ohl Style Beef Jerky, we take pride in selecting the finest meats, all Hand-Sliced on site. We marinate it over night with our special blend of ingredients for that delectable flavor. The even distribution of our marinating process is what makes our jerky mouth-watering.
At OHL Style Beef Jerky & Barbeque, everything we do is built around one simple idea: real Texas BBQ should be done the right way, not the easy way. That means no shortcuts, no artificial processes, and no compromises on quality. Every batch of our beef jerky is hand cut, hand crafted, and cooked over a real wood flame to deliver bold, authentic flavor you can actually taste.
We start with premium cuts of beef and slice every piece by hand. This isn’t just about tradition—it’s about control. Hand cutting allows us to get the perfect thickness and texture in every strip, giving you that ideal balance of tenderness and chew that mass-produced jerky just can’t match. Nothing is processed, nothing is formed—just real beef, prepared the way it was meant to be.
What truly sets our jerky apart is how we cook it. Most jerky on the market is made in dehydrators, stripped of moisture without ever developing real depth of flavor. We don’t do that. Our jerky is slow-smoked over a real wood fire, the way true Texas BBQ has been done for generations. This wood-fired process infuses every piece with a rich, smoky flavor that can’t be replicated with liquid smoke or artificial methods.
Cooking over a wood flame takes more time, more attention, and more care—but that’s exactly the point. We believe great beef jerky isn’t rushed. It’s crafted. From the overnight marinade to the final pull from the smoker, every step is done with purpose to create a product that stands apart from anything you’ll find on a store shelf.
Being Texas made means something to us. It means taking pride in the process, respecting tradition, and delivering bold, honest flavor in every bite. At OHL Style Beef Jerky & Barbeque, we’re not trying to be the biggest—we’re focused on being the best. And that starts with doing things the hard way, every single time.
If you’re looking for beef jerky that’s hand cut, hand crafted, and truly wood-fired—not dehydrated—you’re in the right place.
