OutdoorHub Reporters 02.10.20
This Valentine’s Day, nothing says you stole my heart quite like a beef jerky bouquet.
Ladies, perhaps you’re wondering what you should get your significant other for Valentine’s Day this year. He has hinted multiple times that he has something ‘nice’ in store for the two of you, so you want to return the favor. He also has not stopped talking about the upcoming spring turkey hunting season, so you figure a good opening day ‘care package’ would be the perfect gift.
But what exactly does that entail?
The Cabela’s magazines laying around the house are full of great ideas for impending turkey hunters, however, here’s an unusual gift idea you won’t find in a retail store: Manly Man Company’s beef jerky flowers.
No, that was not a typo, a bouquet of beef jerky flowers is a very real thing.
How the Veteran-Owned Business Got Started
The idea for the Manly Man Company was generated during a casual conversation between the company’s founders, Greg Murray and his wife Jacquie, about finding the perfect gift for “him” on Valentine’s Day; Why isn’t there a gift for men that’s equivalent to flowers?
And thus, the idea of “Man Bouquets” – jerky sticks carved into the shape of flowers and presented inside a pint glass or beer mug “vase” – was born.
After the Murray’s discovered they had something real on their hands, Greg asked an old friend, Ben Wynkoop, to get involved. Greg and Ben enlisted in the Marine Corps together shortly after the 9/11 terrorist attacks. After returning home, Greg got a job as a web developer and Ben got involved in digital marketing. The perfect team to market the unusual products Ben and Jacquie had developed!
What They Offer
Approximately one year after Manly Man beef jerky bouquets were born, stemless maple candied bacon jerky rose bouquets were launched. Almost one year after their second major release with bacon roses, they launched a non-manly brand called Awesome Gifts Co.™, in response to overwhelming requests for bouquets anyone can be gifted.
To date, The Manly Man Company boasts an ever-growing line of unique, custom and curated gifts that include:
- Beef Jerky Flower Bouquets
- Beef Jerky Rose Bouquets
- Maple Candied Bacon Roses
- Manly Scented Gift Wrapping Paper
- Tactical Christmas Stocking Gift Kits
