We started as a community butcher shop in 1978. People driving down Highway 22, stopped by the Longview Jerky Shop, grabbed a few treats for the road & some even had a bit left to share with their friends back home. We noticed that our jerky began to fly. Bags of our jerky began traveling up and down the highway. It’s still flying over 27 years later and now, because of demand for that same Original quality and taste, we’ve built our new website so that it can literally ‘fly’ to your homes. This is to help ease the number of calls we receive for special shipments. We were just going about our business and now we find ourselves ‘online’.
This would not be possible without all of you who stopped by to pick up batches for your friends throughout the years. Our jerky is made fresh right before your eyes and you’ve told us it’s well worth the drive. Of course you know that our jerkys are healthy protein laden snacks that keep well. Our vacuum-sealed bags ensure freshness.
Why do we live in Longview? Quality of life, abundant fishing holes, hiking and cross-country skiing without the crowds, the natural beauty that surrounds us and of course we are proud of the fine Alberta Beef that our local ranchers work so hard to raise. Longview is still in the middle of prime cattle country where the cowboy way of life is alive and well. It’s an attitude and lifestyle we respect. Community is important to us and we pitch in with whatever has to be done. What goes around, comes around.
But you’re really here for our jerky. Our World Famous Longview-style Jerky has kept us in business for 27 years despite the trials & tribulations of a small business. Respecting the historical tradition of how jerky kept the native North Americans, explorers & early travelers nourished, we created our line of Pioneer Jerky, slowly dried in an age-old Traditional Style. Of course, we use no MSG. Listening to those with special requests, we created our Jerky Stix, which provide a soft, tender chew. We will continue to listen, experiment with new flavours and create new tastes and offerings.
Be sure to check out the History of the Longview Jerky Shop and where our jerky has traveled.
This is the style we started with in 1978. We continue to use only Alberta beef. Made from finely cuts strips of roast and second-generation recipes. Juicy, tender and marinated to perfection in our own combination of herbs, spices and sauces, then baked to mouth watering perfection in our ovens.

A truly dark and rich flavour that combines the superb taste of 100% Alberta Beef with the deep, dark taste of molasses and a hidden touch of sweetness. Tom created this new flavour as a salute to the many Rough Necks out there working across Alberta & to the oil industry which has such an impact on the growth of our great province. From all of us at the Longview Jerky Shop…our hats off to you. Keep up the hard work. This new flavour may look like crude oil, but sure does taste like Black Gold. |

Traditional Style Jerky, prepared in Old West fashion. Just as soft as our original style, but chewier. We use big slabs of 100% Alberta Beef, which are cured to perfection and dried in our own ovens. In the old days, slabs of jerky were cured, then dried in the sun for long trips and to keep for the winter months. These are big hits with the ‘rip and chew’ crowd. Four fine flavours to choose from…
~ Our traditional style recipe.
~ A unique original taste of it’s own. Tangy, sweet flavours make this a popular choice.
~ An 8 out of 10 for heat! Bold, hot and smokin’!
~A rich, smoky, original flavour. A true campfire favorite.
