Gus's Fresh Jerky is a small, wind-swept shack located on the side of 395, easily spotted with many signs leading up to it. Known for its soft, moist, and flavorful jerky, it offers a variety of flavors including Sweet & Spicy, Teriyaki, and Cowboy, which is highly praised and considered better than typical gas station jerky. Customers often find the jerky to be very tasty and much better than supermarket options, with some reviews calling it the best jerky they've ever had. The store also sells other products like local honey, olives, dried fruits, and chili mango. The staff is friendly and offers tastings of different jerky flavors, enhancing the experience. While the jerky is fresh and well-liked, it is considered pricey, with some paying over $20 for a small 80g bag. The exterior and interior are simple but neat, though some customers note that the bags do not zip to keep the jerky fresh. Overall, Gus's is a characteristic place worth a stop for jerky lovers, especially those looking for unique flavors and quality products, despite the higher prices.
Jerky is so soft and tasty. Love the Sweet & Spicy. Brisket was a first and really good too. Great people. A must to stop by on the 395 for sure

“Characteristic” place that is worth a stop. Dried meat is expensive but we bought it after reading the reviews and objectively it is much better than what you find in supermarkets.
