Guys can be hard to shop for and if they’re also a dad…good luck! Men traditionally fit within a few major categories. There’s the gadget dude who loves all the latest tech wizardry (what’s a Raspberry Pi again?). The audiophile, with his headphones and earbuds, is always on the prowl for new music, podcasts, and audiobook platforms. There’s the golf guy in need of golf balls (still can’t escape the sand trap), tees, and club gear. There’s the modern man searching for new shades (that means glasses for you “unwoke” folk), watches, and skinny jeans. And the hunter, who’s currently lost at a Bass Pro Shop near you checking out arrow tips and fishing rods. While all these men have different interests, one thing unites many of them. They’re mostly meat lovers. Based on current surveys, 96% of men welcome meat on their plate. And that makes beef jerky bouquets from Manly Man Co. an excellent gift idea for the special dad, husband, fiancé, boyfriend, “just a friend”, or son in your life. Also, they let me in on a little pre-Black Friday and Black Friday coupon code, so read through to save yourself some piggy bank bacon.

A Mouth Watering Beef Jerky Bouquet
How on Earth could I say no to an offer to provide my honest review of a BEEF JERKY BOUQET?!
Really, only three questions popped into my head.
1) How big is the beef jerky bouquet, 2) how much could I consume in one sitting, and 3) how long would shipping take?
And come to think of it, most guys I know would feel the same way!
But this wasn’t just a package of meat from the store. These dudes (or dudettes?) at Manly Man Co. put a lot of thought into the product presentation.
The box was solid. I was a little worried it would show up all damaged and maybe sopping wet from some lazy delivery guy’s tipped over water bottle. But even with a few manly shakes I couldn’t hear anything moving around inside.
That’s because it turned out to be built like a tank…and I appreciate that. Too often you send a gift to someone and it’s all messed up. But these guys put the quality all over this product.
And hey, if it says it’s awesome on the box…it’s got to be awesome, right?
Definitely awesome. Check that packaging out. Sealed meat. Unexpected tumbler glass any man would be proud of. And some sweet personalized messages to entertain even the most hungry man.
I was actually glad I got to open this myself.
If someone else arranged the protein packed bouquet for me I personally think it would have lost some of the flare.
Remember that when you consider opening it for your special guy.
Maybe let him work up his appetite with the unveiling.
The meat was seriously sealed. At first I was like, eh, plastic, who wants plastic, right?
But thinking about how it needs to be safe to eat during the quick shipping, I don’t think there is any way around that.
And besides, the plastic is only one scissor slice away.
Check out that beef jerky bouquet!
Yum.
It was hard not to take a few nibbles before I got some sweet IG worthy images. Had to throw the pool in the background for good measure. It makes everything cooler. And since it’s too chilly out to enjoy, I’ve got to make the energy cost worthwhile!
My beef jerky bouquet came with three types of meet: Teriyaki, Hot, and Original. It even came with a handy-dandy nutrition label for the buff dudes.
I will say I still don’t know which beef stick was which flavor. All of them tasted a little spicy and, while the colors were a bit different, I had to guess the darker ones were the hot and teriyaki…because you know, science and all that.
It would be nice if Manly Man Co. could distinguish them more somehow, just so when us guys are jamming them down our gullet we can at least tell people which flavor was our favorite.
The meat looked really fancy. It’s really just a beef jerky stick stuck into some flower petal cut slices. You can pull the flowers off easily and snack on them like you would any normal beef jerky. Any dude who picks up the whole stem and eats it like a real flower is just being theatrical.
I am happy to report the beef jerky bouquet was delicious. It was so good, even my little manly man started chowing down. I was a fan of the petals. He was a fan of the sticks. Win-win right there.
The bouquet may look a little on the small side, but it took us a few days to eat it all. The sticks are filling and the petals pack enough punch to keep you from going to town. Might even want to have some milk handy if your special man is a lightweight when it comes to spice.
The Manly Man Co. beef jerky bouquet was a really unique gift. I don’t think I’ve ever seen one quite like it and especially not delivered in such a high quality box.
As a beef jerky lover, I do have to tell you it was not the same consistency as the beef jerky you might find at a grocery store. Grocery store jerky is real tough and you kind of chew on it for a while. Which I like.
This Manly Man Co. jerky was on the softer side. I’m not savvy enough to know if that means it’s 100x fresher than grocery jerky or just made differently…but it was delicious and I’d be pumped to be gifted another one. I’m confident your special guy would think it’s super cool.
All that was really left is to obey the box and ENJOY!
If you get one of these bad boys for someone, let me know in the comments! I think it would be a guaranteed success.
