My husband needed a haircut because of my graduation and his go to barber was out. But we were leaving for my graduation the very next day, so he found this haircut spot by work and I happened to park right next door. I look up and I see, Superior jerky. My normal instinct, Yelp. So I yelped the place and saw how highly rated this place was and was intrigued with their jerky chips. As soon as I entered, I was greeted by the gentleman who owns the place. He instantly apologized for the current stock as he was making the chips fresh currently. I told him it was totally okay, and I happened to be in the area because my husband was in dire of a haircut since we were leaving for Arizona the next morning. He showed me the types of jerky he offered and the different kinds. I ended up buying one of each that were available and I'm not mad at about it. The owner explained to me that he is a small business and the reason for the small quantity is because he makes the products fresh and wants to keep it fresh for his customers. My Yelp stars in my head are going up while talking to him and listening to how he cares about the products and his customers. Once I left, my husband also happened to be done with his hair cut. To his surprise, he asked me what did I buy?! But after opening one to try, we were both shocked on how big each piece was and the moment you bite into them...it was CRISSSSPPYYY!! Driving down from the 91 on the heart of traffic was not what everybody looks forward too, but munching on these jerky actually didn't make me think about the traffic that much. The next day we were sad that we only had a little left but I really wanted my aunt and grandma to try it. Let's just say.. after they tried it while driving to Arizona, we looked forward to going home and buying more! 2 weeks after coming home from my Arizona, my family and I said goodbye to my cousin who passed away unexpectedly. While our minds were elsewhere, I actually brought these bad boys out for my family to try. They loved it so much that one of my cousins and his girlfriend drove to Anaheim to pick more up. Like what people say.. It's true.. food do bring people together. read more

I tried a few flavors and really liked the ingredients and overall quality of the jerky. You can tell it's not your typical overly processed store bought jerky. The Flamin was my favorite by far. It actually had good flavor and a nice kick without being too much. I'll definitely keep ordering that one. The Naked flavor was okay, but it didn't have much taste to me. The Sweet & Spicy was good too, but I think it could use a little more flavor. Overall though, really good jerky and I'm glad I found this company. read more

Superior Jerky - Specialty Food Near Me - Orange, California

Located in a strip mall in Tustin, this place sells seemingly one thing and one thing only. And that's delicious beef jerky (actually, I think they have limited other snacks and bottles of their sauces for sale). Not sure if it was later in the day, but during my visit, it was really chill inside the space and its set up like a specialty retail store. The person behind the counter was friendly and helpful. The style or their jerky is something I don't think I ever had before. While I'm a fan of good beef jerky in general, usually, it's a little thicker and chewy. A lot of the time, it gets stuck in my teeth, which in turn necessitates some dental floss. Not these jerky treats! These are almost razor thin and have a crisp to them, not unlike a chip. I came in an purchased a bag of their 'Sweet & Spicy' flavor to enjoy while driving around and running errands. I devoured the entire bag within a relatively short period of time. These snacks are delicious and addictive. The meat seems lean so I would even put them in the healthy category. Not sure why I had them bookmarked to begin with, but glad I was in the area and it popped up on one of my collections. Definitely coming back and buying more bags when I'm back in the area. read more

Great beef jerky chips . My kids and I are obsessed . I love that they have the deal 4 bags for $40 since we all want our own bag lol They are friendly and never have issues . Usually I'm in and out in 5 mins . They keep the store in order and clean . read more

I came to Superior Jerky 3 weeks ago while visiting family in the OC. I'm always in the lookout for "healthy" snacks for my drive to and from work, and lean jerky seems about perfect to me! I initially bought 12 bags from Nike on a Friday afternoon, and after having one back of the Naked jerky, I went back the next day and bought 16 more bags. I gave out half the bags i bought as gifts to friends and family that like jerky and they all agreed it was a very tasty and unique jerky. I tried a few bags of the chicken skins...not my favorite but still tasty. My favorite flavors are the sweet and spicy, peppered, 50/50, Naked, and spicy...in that order. I think 3oz is a good sized package. The packaging is well done and while I see it is resealable, I finish the bag at once anyway. I initially had a Luke warm reception from Nike when I first went to the store, like he seemed I was bothering him. He did answer my questions and told him if I liked the product I'd be back to by more. The next day when I returned he was much friendlier and even smiled when I came thru the door. I wish they had sampled to give out, because if they did I prob would have just bought 30 bags all at once instead of two trips. Product is awesome. In fact, I'm about to order 20 more bags read more

Your jerky is tasty, but y'all need to seriously work on your welcoming skills. Not very friendly at all. Acted like I was bothering you from the moment I walked in. You'd sell more jerky too, if you passed out samples. Us new customers and walk bys have no idea what you're selling and what makes yours different from the thousand other jerkys out there. read more

I was craving some thin crispy jerky so i yelped and this place came up. My family and I went here and right away were greeted by friendly people. They made some nice recommendations and we decided to try the brisket candied flavor, sweet and spicy and sea weed, they all are really good and fresh, we especially enjoyed the brisket, probably bought too many, but we will be back and will recommend them to family and friends. Cool spot in orange pretty easy to find, nice layout inside!! read more

A friend of mine brought me some Superior Jerky to try and they are SO good! These are not your regular beef jerky where it is chewy in texture. No, these are best described as beef chips. They are paper thin and very crispy. It's definitely worth trying if you've never had them before. I tried the Flaming Spicy as well as the Sweet and Spicy flavors and they were both really good. It's $12 a bag and I find it a bit pricey because you don't get a lot in one bag. Despite the price, I am a fan and will be returning to purchase some in the future! read more

I stumbled upon this place because I wanted to buy jerky as a Christmas gift for my dad. I was looking for a local jerky spot after trying Psych-ko's jerky from NorCal. If you haven't tried Psych-ko's, they have really crispy jerky and that was my first introduction to thin and crispy jerky. The place itself is a small hole in the wall shop. Very clean and modern looking tho. I believe they make all their jerky in house, which is super cool. We asked if they had any samples, and they were kind enough to let us try a bit of the most recent batch they just made. After trying that sample, we were hooked. I can't remember exactly what flavor we tried, but YUM. We ended up purchasing 4 different flavors. I believe they were cracked peppercorn, sweet and spicy, crispy seaweed, and 50fifty. The 50fifty is a bit more fatty and not as crispy, but still SO good. The other 3 flavors are the thin and crispy kind. If you've never tried super thin and crispy jerky before, I HIGHLY recommend checking out this spot. I'm trying to lower my cholesterol nowadays, but if I wasn't, I'd purchase more jerky from this place for sure hehe. And I'll probably be back to buy more jerky for my dad sometime! :) read more

Whenever I am in the area I can't resist the sweet and spicy (which has sadly been out of stock on more than one of my visits) and naked flavors. Beef peppercorn is great too. I usually don't love crispy type jerky but this honestly might be some of the best jerky I have had. Addictive! read more

I can eat a bag easily in one sitting. I was in the area going to the keto bakery a door down and saw jerky on the signage , so I got out the car again and went in. Very clean straight forward layout space. I picked up the Naked flavor to start. Service was chill. Took it home and dove in . The texture is not your typical jerky. I call it jerky chips. It's not the soft chewy type . I like how different it is. Super easy to kill a bag. I went back when I was in the area and got the flamming beef. Still tasty and great flavor and spice. I really need to try the other flavors but I'm stuck on these two. I keep a bag at my house and my mom's and I probably should at my homies too :D I'll definitely be back read more

I was out here for a work meeting from Long Beach and found the place. The jerky chips look good but call ahead because they were out of the regular and cracked pepper. I hope to try it next time I am in the area. read more

Thin, crispy, and full of flavor. I really it's all good. I'm nto a big jerky person but I can munch on this now and then. My wife on the other hand loves jerky and she likes it and if she likes it, it must be pretty good. read more

Superior Jerky - Great beef jerky - Specialty Food Near Me - Orange, California

Hands down the best beef jerky I have ever eaten. These are amazingly thin, crispy, and full of flavor; it's probably not like any other beef jerky around. When I read that they offer seaweed flavor, I had to get some asap... no regrets. 10/10 recommend!!! read more

Variety of flavors and quality of jerky is great. It's like eating beef chips. Easy to chew. Staff is always friendly and helpful. Clean, simple, yet stylish interior. read more

Holy Moly... This jerky is the BEST I HAVE EVER HAD. If you're like me and hate chewy fatty jerky, this lean chip like slice of heaven is for you! I've ordered about 20 bags now and will continue to order more. Their Sweet and Spicy flavor has me in a chokehold. Although, all their flavors are amazing. UNLIKE ANYTHING IVE EVER TRIED. I highly recommend coming in store yourself (you're missing out if you dont), ordering online (shipping is super fast) or catch them at the next farmers market or trade show! 10000000/10. I'm simply addicted. read more

These delicious thin jerky's are perfect for when having company over your house! I enjoyed each flavor and so did my guest. I just put another in as of today! I wanted to stop by the shop but saw they are closed Saturday and Sunday so online will work for me. The service for online order is easy and simple to order from! Must try if you are in the workers inside are friendly and helpful and friendly read more

I stopped by earlier today and bought two packs of jerky because of a recommendation from a friend in vegas. They're pretty good and I would say there reasonable for the prices. However I had a bad taste in my mouth when they didn't mention to me about buying four packs of jerky for $40 instead of purchasing each pack for $12. Initially I came in and only got two packs because there were no signs about four packs for $40, Later that day, I called and they said that I have to purchase all four of the jerkies and one transaction. The thing that doesn't make sense is that if I literally bought the same day maybe within 2 hours (12:25pm and called at 2:01p ), it doesn't make sense why they can't just void the transaction and purchase it all in one. As a business I would think they would want to sell more product, but I guess not. I would say before you come in, ask all your questions. I also noticed that there is no tax for online orders and you only responsible for a $5 shipping fee. So do your cost benefit analysis to see if the tax is cheaper or more than the shipping. I mean haggling over 8 bucks is not that much, but it's frustrating that they didn't explain to me why it isn't prossible. Hopefully they'll see this review so next time. Especially if there's someone who is coming back to buy additional product. If they really don't want to make an additional sale, fine by me. I can save on the money. read more

We've gone here a couple of times -- and no LIE, these are good jerky! However today I'm rating it for service. Coming in -- there was BARELY anything on the shelf. The guy in the front just said "IT IS WHAT IT IS." Hey I get it, all business wants to be sold out but what I can't stand is the attitude toward a walk in customer. Off the bat, I already had weird vibes cause he was literally just chit chatting & didn't even ask me if I needed help. I had to wait for him to finish a convo before he could just say he's freshed out of options. Honestly -- come for the jerky but don't expect it to be a friendly environment. Not sure if they still have that 4 bags for $40 but even the guy didn't put up a sign or mentioned it to me. It is what it issssss .... read more

I just stumbled onto this place, and SO GLAD I did!!!! I have never had jerky chips before but they are AMAZING!!!! I can't do spicy so I grabbed the two naked ones and since the shop owner or whomever helped me said that the sweet and spicy are popular, I grabbed two of those as well (4 for $40). Both are great!!! Thank you for the EXCELLENT customer service, it's so rare these days. I highly recommend this place!!! Support your local shops. read more

Great service and the best jerky around! Superior jerky is a family favorite and I always stop in when I'm in the area. Never disappointed.

If you're looking for HIGH QUALITY beef jerky, this is the place! SO glad I stopped by on their grand opening, we picked up three flavors: Sweet & Spicy (my fav), Flaming Beef, and Cracked Peppercorn (partner's fav).

The quality is amazing and fairly priced, I'll definitely be back for more read more

Love their chip jerky! So addicting! All their flavors are yummy! My kids love the sweet soy jerky.

Jerky is different than your traditional type. It's similar to a chip but unique in its own way. All the flavors are good.

Man, I really really appreciate Superior Jerky. I've never had such great jerky like this in my entire life. I am hooked on the textures as well as the spices. Everytime I order, they ship it out quickly and they always provide really great service. Whoever is in charge, I love you guys and I wish you nothing but success. I am a life time customer now and will be advocating them to all my friends who enjoy beef jerky. read more

Superior Jerky hits so different from just the regular jerky you get at the gas station. I was anticipating this store opening for so long, and now it finally opened. Service is so friendly and patient too. I went with some of my friends and the girl with the pink hair at the counter (Lia was her name I think) was able to give us some of her recommendations. I went with the sweet and spicy and it was too good. This really is superior jerky! read more

Jackson was very cool, gave me the breakdown of jerky and the spices. I'm excited to try it. Very new very unique.
