Will U Be My Best Man?

Excerpt: When it's time to pop the question to your right-hand man, ditch the clichés and go for gifts that pack a punch—literally. Here's how to ask your best bud to stand by your side, the Manly Man Co.  way.

The Moment Before the Moment

There are a few monumental questions a man will ask in his lifetime: "Will you marry me?" "Do you have any more charcoal?" And—arguably just as important—"Will you be my best man?"

This isn't just about filling a role. It's about honoring the guy who’s seen you at your worst and still answered your 3 a.m. texts. The dude who laughed when you fell off your longboard but also drove you to the ER. He's your ride-or-die, and now it's time to make it official.

So how do you pop the other big question in a way that’s memorable, hilarious, and maybe even a little tasty? We got you.

Step One: Say It With Meat – Meat Card™

If there’s a manlier way to propose your brohood than by handing over a slab of engraved beef, we haven’t heard of it.

The Meat Card™ is an edible greeting card made from premium beef jerky, laser-engraved with your custom message. You can keep it simple (“Best man?”), get sentimental (“I couldn’t do this without you”), or go full comedy central (“You tie the ties, I’ll tie the knot”).

Toss it to him during a tailgate, sneak it into his gym bag, or hand it over during your next poker night. Either way, this is the kind of question that gets a resounding YES between mouthfuls of meat.

Step Two: Say It With Bacon – Bacon Bouquet

Let’s be real—roses wilt. Bacon blooms into legend.

The Bacon Bouquet is twelve thick-cut, maple-smoked bacon roses bundled in a manly arrangement that smells better than any florist's shop ever could. Picture his face when he opens the box expecting something lame, and instead finds meat flowers.

Perfect for bros with a refined palate and a sense of humor, it’s the ideal combo of tasty and tender. Plus, it’s one bouquet he won’t re-gift to his girlfriend.

Step Three: Fuel the Flavor Frenzy – Best Jerky Gift Box

Some dudes are indecisive. For those guys, give 'em a sampler.

The Best Jerky Gift Box features a curated lineup of top-selling flavors—everything from classic beef to spicy adventures. It’s the kind of stash that turns an afternoon snack into a full-on meat tasting event.

Want to go stealth mode? Just drop it off with a note that says, “Couldn’t tie the knot without you.” He’ll crack it open, snack a little, and get the message. Bold flavor. Subtle genius.

Step Four: Go Big or Go Home – The Grand Carnivore Gift Set

Not all heroes wear tuxes. Some open ammo cans full of meat.

The Grand Carnivore Gift Set is a feast in a box. We’re talking over 2 pounds of premium jerky, snack sticks, and meat sticks, delivered in a rugged gift box worthy of your inner outdoorsman.

This is for the best man who’s part Ron Swanson, part Gordon Ramsay. Someone who respects bold gestures, big flavors, and manly packaging. Pop the lid and let the savory bonding begin.

Step Five: Sweeten the Deal – The Meats + Sweets Gift Set

Because even your best bro has a sweet side.

The Meats + Sweets Gift Set mixes salty, savory, and sugary goodness into one irresistible package. It’s got beef jerky. It’s got chocolate. It’s got your friendship wrapped in a bow of delicious balance.

Whether he’s into midnight snacks or just appreciates variety, this gift hits every craving. It’s basically a friendship mixtape made of meat and sugar.

Wrapping It Up Like a Burrito of Brotherhood

Asking someone to be your best man isn’t a checkbox—it’s a milestone. This is the guy who’ll hold the rings, roast you in his speech, and have your back when your tie’s crooked and nerves are high.

So ask him like you mean it. Ask him with meat, with humor, with over-the-top manly flair. Because when you look back at your wedding day, you’ll want to remember the moment you made your best man laugh, cry, and snack—all at once.
