Pearson Ranch, founded in 1959, is family-owned, raising elk, buffalo (also known as bison) and cattle. Located in the beautiful southwestern mountains of New Mexico at an elevation of 7,800 feet, the virtually untouched surroundings host elk, deer, black bear, antelope, mountain lions, wolves, turkeys and other small game. Pearson Ranch has been in the meat snack business since 2000. The main focus of ranch operations shifted to meat snack products in the summer of 2011. Buffalo (Bison) products were introduced in 2003, and Venison and Wild Boar products added in 2014. Pearson Ranch Jerky’s products provide a great alternative for people used to eating beef-based meat snacks as well as those looking to try meat snacks for the very first time. The snacks are made of only natural ingredients, contain no nitrites, have no MSG, are gluten free, and come conveniently packaged to compliment even the most active lifestyles. Pearson Ranch Jerky is a great source of lean protein and satisfy even the heartiest appetites. Our products are currently being sold by many of America’s leading outdoor retailers, convenience stores, up-scale grocers, and gourmet specialty retailers. To purchase our elk, buffalo, venison or wild boar products, you can order online or visit one of our partner locations.
