Manly Man Co. eGift Card – Let Them Pick Their Own Awesome

The Manly Man Co. eGift Card gives employees the freedom to choose what they actually want—jerky bouquets, bacon roses, personalized pint glasses, ammo cans, and more. Shopping for someone else, but not sure what to give them? This is the easiest win. Gift cards are delivered by email and contain simple instructions to redeem them at checkout, with no additional processing fees. You set the amount, they make the call, and they can shop the entire store at their own pace.

Why it works: It’s simple, flexible, and loaded with personality.

The Beer Bundle – Great Taste, No Guesswork

Want to give a tangible treat without overthinking it? The Beer Bundle is a pre-packed favorite that delivers full-bodied jerky and brewery-inspired snack vibes with minimal effort. This bundle includes a bag of either Peppered Stout Beef Jerky (1.5 oz), Spicy Citrus IPA Beef Jerky (1.5 oz), or Draft Ale Beef Jerky (3 oz), an Official Man Card Beer Bottle Opener (credit card-sized so it fits in a wallet), and a Manly Man Co.® fire-branded coaster. It’s ready to drop into any gift box or hand out on its own.

Perfect for: Friday shoutouts, project wrap-ups, or “you nailed it” moments.

Meat Card™ – A Good Job Gift They Can Eat

Looking for something personalized that still fits into your gifting plan? The Meat Card™ is a greeting card-sized sheet of premium beef jerky (4" x 9", approx. 1.8 oz) laser-engraved with your custom message. Vacuum-sealed for freshness, it’s equal parts hilarious and heartfelt—ideal for celebrating big wins with bold flavor. Messages are engraved in-house at our California HQ, with each piece made to order (no emojis or special characters, please).

Best message ideas:

• “Snack-worthy performance.”
• “You crushed it. Now eat this.”

The Alibi – Budget-Friendly Appreciation with Humor

Need a good job gift that gets a laugh without busting the budget? The Alibi is a printed card with a playful excuse for why the package is “late.” Choose from quick, funny options like:

Dog Ate It – “A dog intercepted it… so we had to make another.”

Murder Hornets – “Murder hornets delayed the delivery.”

Mailman Mix-Up – “The mailman thought it was for him and ate it.”

Why it’s fun: Tiny in size, big on personality—and costs just a buck.
