Make the move to Jack's Links. I haven't snapped into a Slim Jim since they ditched the Macho Man.


Jack Links is solid. I need to learn how to make my own. Beef Jerky is a fantastic invention. Turkey Jerky is pretty swell too. Oooh and Venison jerky....mmm.

I don't get all this comparison between beef jerky and slim jims. They may both be meat snacking products, but they just aren't the same thing and thus can not be compared in a true apples to apples fashion.

This is correct. I prefer jerky over the greasy meat tubes. Slim Jims are a cheaper snack though. Good when you are in a pinch.

So much hostility toward Slim Jims :sad:

For you jerky fans, has anyone tried Pemmican? Seems to be pretty good, but I'm no jerky connoisseur.

They should just rename Slim Jim's to Greasy Meat Tubes, it'd cut down on all the people who eat slim jim's just to look cool and save them for the real fans.

mmmmmm....I love me a greasy meat tube.......

Greasy Meat Tubes. ha ha ha That would be a great test for the ConAgra marketing team.

What the hell's a connoisseur, is that a type of dinosaur? I'm just a simple man that likes his Greasy Meat Tubes.

So much hostility toward Slim Jims :sad:

I think Slim Jims should officially be referred to as GMT's the rest of this thread.

There's got to be a better way to say this.

I think they use dog to make slim jims. They are the worst form of beef jerky I've ever tasted.

I don't care if they are reprocessed vomit. If the Macho Man is selling, I'm buying.
