Being a firefighter takes guts, grit, and the ability to nap in boots. So when it’s time to show appreciation—whether for a birthday, retirement, promotion, or just because—you want something better than a coffee mug that says “World’s Okayest Fireman.”
Enter: this list of funny firefighter gifts that are anything but average. We’re talking beef bouquets, ammo cans packed with jerky, and gear that says “I run into fires, and I snack like a beast.”
If you're hunting for firefighter gag gifts, DIY gifts for firefighters, or just something hilarious and unforgettable, these picks bring the smoke—and the smiles.
1. The Grand Carnivore Gift Set
This gift set is as intense as a four-alarm chili cook-off. It’s loaded with Beef Jerky Flower Bouquet, personalized Meat Card™, Man Card bottle opener, and your choice of spicy, classic, or “#1 Dad” Meathearts™.
It’s like giving him a firehouse feast in gift form. And unlike the rookie’s casserole, it won’t get left in the fridge.
2. Bacon Jerky Ammo Can Gift Basket
What’s hotter than a backdraft? Bacon. This Ammo Can Gift Basket features five sizzling bacon jerky flavors, a Manly Man beer mug, coaster, and the MAN CARD bottle opener.
Packed in a real 30 Cal 7.62mm steel ammo can, it’s the perfect combo of function and flavor—ideal for stashing gear or snacks between calls.
3. The Gesture
For the firefighter who deserves more than a handshake but less than a parade. The Gesture packs a beef jerky bouquet, a laser-engraved Meat Card™, and our signature bottle opener—all in a gift box the size of a radio pouch.
It’s a funny fireman gift that says, “You crushed it,” without sounding like the captain.
4. Beer Jerky Tasting Ammo Can Gift Basket
Nothing says “end of shift” like jerky and beer snacks. This one includes four craft beer–infused jerky flavors, beer nuts bar mix, a Manly Man mug, and a MAN CARD bottle opener. All delivered in a rugged ammo can, ready for the locker room or truck bay.
Pro tip: pair it with a six-pack for best results.
5. Beef Jerky Flower Bouquet
You think flowers are too soft? Not these. Each “stem” in our Beef Jerky Flower Bouquet is made from thick-cut, slow-marinated beef jerky—available in Original, Hot, Teriyaki, or Mixed.
Delivered pre-assembled in a pint glass “vase,” it’s the only bouquet that belongs in a firehouse fridge.
6. Coffee & Bacon Ammo Can Gift Basket
Some firefighters live on grit. Others live on Black Rifle Coffee and thick-cut bacon jerky. This box has both—plus chocolate-covered espresso beans, a black steel coffee mug, and a steel ammo can that says “I’m awake and I’m dangerous.”
Give it to the one who never misses a call (or a chance to roast the probie).
7. The Meats + Sweets Gift Set
Need something for the soft-hearted guy who’s still 100% smoke-eater? This combo of a Beef Jerky Flower Bouquet and scotch-infused caramels delivers big flavor with a touch of class.
It’s perfect for birthdays, holidays, or just saying “Thanks for not letting the station cat out (again).”
8. The Classic Flask Gift Set
A slick 8 oz stainless steel flask, two shot glasses, and a funnel—delivered in a personalized burnt pine box. Whether he’s off-duty or just celebrating a big win, this is the funny firefighter gift that says, “Pour one out—then pour another.”
Add his name, nickname, or firehouse call sign to seal the deal.
9. The Official MAN CARD (Bottle Opener)
When he’s earned his stripes (and probably saved a cat or two), make it official with this wallet-sized bottle opener. Individually serialized and forged from stainless steel, the MAN CARD comes in a sleek black sleeve and opens bottles like a champ.
Funny? Yes. Useful? Absolutely.
10. Bacon Bloody Mary Ammo Can Kit
Because Sunday brunch is still sacred—even for guys who’ve been up since 3 a.m. This kit includes four bacon jerky flavors, olives, seasoning mix, Bacon RimShot, and a Manly Man mug—all packed in a customizable ammo can.
Fire up the tomato juice (vodka not included), and let him build a Bloody Mary worthy of the firehouse.
Conclusion: Gifts That Blaze Past Basic
Being a firefighter is no small feat. It’s long hours, tough calls, and endless stories that usually start with “you won’t believe what happened.” So when it’s time to gift him something, make it bold, make it flavorful, and make it funny.
These curated picks from Manly Man Co. deliver on every front—because whether you’re shopping for a captain, chief, rookie, or retiree, these funny firefighter gifts go beyond the badge.
