About Bogeys Beef

Bogeys Beef is the rare jerky brand that got into the clubhouse by winning over the chefs first. It started with Doug Bogumill experimenting with sauces, spices, rubs and homemade jerky recipes. A gifted dehydrator turned that tinkering into a serious craft, and friends and family kept asking for more. Grayson Gordon saw room to build something larger around Doug’s recipes, and the two set about turning a homemade favorite into a brand. Today, according to the brand, Bogeys Beef is stocked at more than 50 of the country’s Top 100 golf courses, including Oakmont, Whistling Straits and Bandon Dunes. It credits executive chefs who had tasted the competition and kept choosing Bogeys Beef. The team is based in Mableton, Georgia.

What makes Bogeys Beef different

The brand’s pitch rests on two things: an exceptionally tender texture and bold, unmistakable flavor, which it says separate Bogeys Beef from ordinary mass-market jerky. It calls the result a distinctive, premium product for people who want something memorable and can’t simply pick it up everywhere. Its other calling card is the golf world, where Bogeys Beef says it earned its place one tasting, one chef and one account at a time. The recipes themselves trace back to Doug’s homemade sauces, spices and rubs.

Bogeys Beef flavors we carry

The whole range is beef, and most of it runs smoky and savory with heat the brand describes as anywhere from balanced to hot. If garlic is your thing, Gnarly Garly is the one: the brand pairs bold garlic with Creole-inspired seasoning, a savory signature marinade and a touch of habanero, with heat it describes as just enough. If you want smoke without a fight, start with Smokey Heat, which blends chili, spice, garlic, apple and raisin notes with lean eye-of-round beef; its heat is billed as balanced. Smokey Fire builds on that same profile with an extra kick for anyone who likes a hotter bite, and it belongs with the spicier beef jerky in stock. If you’d rather go sweet, Pineapple Express brings bright pineapple sweetness to savory beef jerky, with no heat called out on its page. Everything currently in stock is in the grid above.

Who it’s for

Expect a tender chew: the brand’s own words for its texture are exceptionally tender. If you like heat, you have choices described as balanced, hotter and habanero-touched; if you don’t, Pineapple Express is the pick, with no heat called out. The manufacturer’s site doesn’t publish ingredient lists, allergen statements or dietary certifications for its jerky, so if you’re avoiding gluten, soy or other allergens, read the label on the bag before you buy.
