Did you know this tasty road trip snack is produced in this tiny Montana town?

If you live in Montana,  you have been on a road trip or two in your lifetime. It's the best way to get around the state. You will need a vehicle to get around Montana to reach campsites, hiking trails, and destinations throughout the state.

One thing that is necessary on any road trip is snacks. While filling up your gas tank before the trip, you need some nutrients to keep you going. Some folks grab candy, chips, or trail mix, but one of the best road trip snacks is jerky.

It's high in protein, comes in different flavors, and it's delicious. One brand of beef jerky that's popular in many of Montana's gas stations is Hi-Country Beef Jerky. Hi-Country Beef Jerky comes in many different packages, whether you want a stick of jerky or a whole bag, but gas stations have them all.

I have had Hi-Country Beef Jerky and always enjoyed it, but I never thought about where it was produced. So it surprised me to drive by the warehouse this past weekend while I was in a small town in Montana.

I was in Lincoln this past weekend for a fun softball tournament and was driving to my Airbnb when I drove by the warehouse and headquarters for Hi-Country Beef Jerky.

I did some digging, and this business is all about Montana. The meat is primarily from Montana and is made, sorted, and packaged in a town where they don't have a stop light and one school.

It's cool to know that one of the best road trip snacks is made in a town where no one would expect it. Lincoln is a fantastic little town with a ton of personality, and this realization makes Lincoln even better.

I love Lincoln for the views and an incredible steakhouse, but this town keeps surprising me.

So the next time you need a road trip snack, grab some Hi-Country Beef Jerky.
