Just because you're serious about the quality of meat you eat doesn't mean you can't tell a few funny beef jerky jokes.
After all, you eat pasture-raised, grass-fed beef because you want to enjoy this world in the most honorable way possible. Making people giggle with a well-told joke is just as noble a cause as eating sustainable, humanely-raised meat products.
Telling a good joke makes you approachable and puts others at ease. Beef jerky jokes let you break the ice when you're talking about more serious snacking topics, like why you seek out humanely raised beef products from farms with eco-friendly farming practices.
But before you get to the, er, beef of this article (the jokes), take a few seconds to see if you're prepared to tell jokes about, well, meat.
Half of telling a joke is in the delivery. Mumbling, acting nervous, speaking in a soft voice...all of these missteps can all send your audience packing before you ever get to the punchline. So, here are a few tips that can make you a better "cow-median," even if just for one joke.
When you make beef jerky for a living, people tell you many beef jerky jokes, but they're not all funny, and some are actually pretty bad.
