The Jerky Outlet

This place is great! Has every kind of jerky you could want from the traditional beef to wild flavors like ostrich or alligator. A wide variety of flavors and types make this a great place to stop by if in the area or passing through.

The Jerky Outlet has an amazing selection of jerky and snacks. The wild game jerky like the venison is delicious but they also have everything from kangaroo to gator. Definitely a cool store.

This place was awesome. Stopped in here on the way to a job-​site and it was a diamond in the rough. They have every jerky you could imagine. I had the gator and smoked turkey and both were great. Even if you aren’t a huge fan of jerky don’t be discouraged try something new at this place!

Huge selection, including wild game, sausage, cheese, pop corn, chips, salty snacks, and ofcourse jerky, all of which can be sampled. They have some cool shirts for sale including PETA– people eating tasty animals, and the convenient store basics aswell. Bit pricey though.

Great samples, everything you could think to try. Usual gas station drinks and other services but go there for the jerky!

The Jerky Outlet was just across the street from where I was staying and I love jerky, so I had to stop by.
It’s both a jerky store and a gas station. There are a couple dozen bins of jerky and you’re welcome to sample as much as you please. The most common jerky were the beef and turkey variations, but they had several wild game (kangaroo, alligator, elk, etc). You can build your own 1lb mix for $ 30 (except for a specific beef jerky and the wild game) with their cold and dry packs. Unfortunately I had no access to refrigeration so I stuck with the dry packs.
There’s also some popcorn blends too, which I didn’t sample.
Otherwise the place was nice and clean, the cashier was patient and friendly. It’s easy to spend an hour there sampling and pondering what you’ll be taking home! My picks were honey BBQ flavored smoked turkey, cherry maple flavored smoked turkey, peppercorn smoked beef, and smoky mountain sweet bbq flavored beef jerky.

Everytime I go to Michigan I try to stop here and get the great beef, pork and chicken jerky. You can walk around the 30 some barrels and take tongs to pick your choices. I recommend sampling before you buy a huge piece of something you don’t like. I also recommend you look for thinner pieces, because the thick parts are tough and hard to chew.
I was impressed by the sign on the front door stating if you are not happy with the service to call this number. But, I did not feel comfortable calling, even though the lady behind the counter was not friendly, gave short curt answers and was clearly not interested in jerky. For a business like this you need a friendly, knowledgeable and social person who loves to meet new people and share their knowledge of jerky making with recommendations.

2 Beef Jerkey stores in the town of Dundee, crazy!
We went to Beef Jerkey Unlimited first and bought Jerkey here which worked out fine since at this location you can sample everything and as much as you want!
Not the best thing for 3 hungry and greedy bastards like us, we spent about an hour in the store and had a bite of every kind of Jerkey, from Alligator, Venison, Elk, Kangaroo, along with the usuals.
They also have cheeses, nuts, chocolate, popcorn, everything you could want for a roadtrip, all to try for free, noone bugs you.
Needless to say after an hour of mixing Kangaroo and chocolate we left pretty sick and didn’t even buy anything!
Maybe not the best business strategy on their part, but we had a blast and will be back every time we drive up to Michigan!

First, a note to andrew m: Believe it or not, there are TWO jerky stores within a few blocks of each other in Dundee. The billboards stating «We are NOT a gas station» are for the other place, Jerky Unlimited — just so you know that, when you’re at Jerky Outlet, you’re not at the Place on the Billboards.
The availability of samples of every. single. item. is great, and it’s not all weird like some clerk is giving you the hairy eye while you eat your way around the store. When I was there, the clerk encouraged us to taste as many varieties as we wanted, and provided some helpful suggestions. Lots of good tasting jerky (I really liked the venison types, personally) and the candied popcorn is really good too.
Actually, I need some jerky, so I think a trip is in order tomorrow… This place is definitely worth a stop if you’re on US-​23, whether you were otherwise planning to check out Dundee/Cabela’s or not.
And also, ha ha, it is a gas station. Two birds, one stone.

«We are NOT a gas station»
Or at least the highway signs make this boldface lie of a claim. The jerky outlet is indeed a gas station. Or it’s directly in front of one…
Yeah, the jerkies are retadded expensive. But literally EVERY SINGLE THING is available to be sampled in there. And they sell like 25 cheeses, 70 jerkies, 50 candies, weird peanut butters, you name it.
I almost bought this cherry-​maple-​venison jerky until I sampled it and it turned out to be just OK. Then I steered myself to the Longhorn Colby cheese curds. Good call. And then I found the alligator jerky which was actually the coolest one in the store.
One caveat: DO NOT try the Devil’s Spit hot sauce on the counter by the cashier. I eat my shit spicy, so I figured I’d see what’s up. A toothpick dotted my tongue with this satan sauce and for 11secs I didn’t feel or taste a thing. Then my eyes teared up and I started hiccuping uncontrollably. The cashier tried to tell me a joke and I just swiped my card as quickly as possible to get the hell outta there before I started puking or crying. When I got outside and saw that I just paid $ 13 for 5.4oz of alligator jerky, I felt like a jackass, but at least I could start shovelling cheese curds into my mouth. Note to world: cheese curds may be the only substance on earth that can help quash Devil’s Spit hot sauce… if you give them 20 minutes of melting on your tongue.

This place is whatsup. This was my first stop on my Spring Break ’08 road trip from Ann Arbor to New Orleans (and then on to ATL, DC, and NY).
Me and my buddies couldn’t ignore their bigger-​than-​life sign on the highway and thought it might be cool to eat some real jerky. They don’t have any of that Slim Jim crap come people call jerky. I’m talking about real, cured, dried meat sticks and cutlets. Hells yeah!
Pulling up to the Jerky Outlet was initially disappointing because it just looked like a 7 – 11 from the outside. But step inside this place and you’ll find that the entire left side of the store is enough to satisfy your dried meat needs. They have barrels of jerky that you pay for by the pound. They have everything from beef to freakin’ kangaroo! I got myself alligator, venison, buffalo, and beef. Some was spicy, some was sweet, and some was sour. All in all, the sheer variety was enough to win me over. I was glad we stopped here.
I would have given this place two stars just because pulling up to the Jerky Outlet itself isn’t any more exciting than pulling up to any other gas station in America. But I guess you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover.
