Why Bison Jerky Should Be Your Next Healthy Snack

When it comes to convenient, protein-packed snacks, jerky has long been a go-to choice. But not all jerky is created equal. If you’re looking for a healthier, tastier, and more sustainable alternative to traditional beef jerky, bison jerky should be at the top of your list. At True Grit Buffalo Ranch, we craft high-quality bison jerky from locally raised bison, delivering a delicious snack that’s as nutritious as it is flavourful.

Lean, Clean Protein

Bison meat is naturally leaner than beef, which means fewer calories and less fat per serving. It’s high in protein, iron, and essential B vitamins, making it an excellent option for fuelling your body between meals or after workouts. With bison jerky, you get sustained energy without the crash you might experience from sugary snacks.

No Compromises on Flavour

Don’t let the word “healthy” fool you—bison jerky is full of rich, savoury flavour. At True Grit, our jerky is seasoned and smoked to perfection, highlighting the natural taste of the meat without any additives and preservatives. Whether you’re out hiking, commuting, or need something quick between meetings, it satisfies cravings in a way that’s both wholesome and delicious.

Locally Sourced and Sustainably Raised

Supporting local means knowing where your food comes from. Our bison are raised right here in Sherwood Park with care and respect. We believe in ethical ranching practices that prioritize animal welfare and environmental stewardship. When you buy jerky from True Grit, you’re not just getting a great snack—you’re supporting Alberta ranching and sustainable agriculture.

Great for On-the-Go

Because it’s easy to pack, shelf-stable, and doesn’t require refrigeration, bison jerky is ideal for travel, camping, or tossing in your bag for the day. It’s a smarter snack option that fits into even the busiest lifestyle.
