Welcome to Gilbert's, where every bite tells a story of tradition, passion, and a touch of culinary magic. Named after my dad, Gilbert's isn’t just a beef jerky company—it’s a shared journey to redefined what jerky could be.

Hi, I’m Chris Fong, the founder of Gilbert’s, and this journey started with a simple dehydrator and a lot of love. Growing up, my brother and I thought jerky was dry, tough, and flavorless—not exactly something to get excited about. That all changed when our dad decided to make his own. What he created wasn’t just good; it was life-changing—tender, flavorful, and nothing like we’d ever tasted. Inspired by his creativity, my brother and I dove into the craft, learning from him and embarking on our own jerky-making adventures.

After countless experiments and a year of perfecting recipes, I found the formula that felt just right. It all became real when my dad uttered those magic words..."This is the best jerky I've ever tasted." That’s when I knew this wasn’t just jerky—it was an experience worth sharing with the world. And there was only one name worthy of this creation: Gilbert’s.

Now, every bag we make carries that same spirit—family, tradition, and a whole lot of flavor. Welcome to the Gilbert's family, where every bite is an adventure.

As we continue to grow, we remain dedicated to our founding principles. Our journey may be slow, but it’s meaningful. Every step we take is fueled by the desire to honor my dad's legacy and to introduce the world to a new standard of beef jerky. Join us on this flavorful adventure, and discover why Gilbert's is set to become a household name in the world of jerky.

Thank you for being a part of our story. Here's to many more delicious moments together!
