A building full of awesome.

Out by the Bass Pro Shop in Sevierville is a store called, I swear by all that's holy, "The Beef Jerky Outlet".

Made. Of. Win.

How was the salmon jerky? :); 7:46 PM, January 01, 2009

Dr. StrangeGun said...: I went there a few months ago and picked up a good assortment... I wasn't impressed.

Crockett Creek has always been my bag (hah) but lately they've changed their recipe and it's not even close to what it used to be.

*sigh*. My kingdom for a good piece of dried meat.; 7:59 AM, January 02, 2009

Better! A gigantic outdoors store (clothes, tents, kayaks, camping stuff... and guns) right across the parking lot. With an indoor "shooting gallery" and full of "nature scenes" of stuffed critters from all over. Imagine "rustic Montana lodge meets warehouse store."

Also, a wondermous steakhouse next door, and the giantest knifestore you ever did see a few miles down the road.

Hey, East Tennessee tourist shops know their clientele.; 11:03 PM, January 02, 2009

Tam said...: Jen,

And a minor league baseball field across the street whose concession stands serve BBQ nachos!!!

Guns, knives, steak, beef jerky, baseball, BBQ, and a Harley dealership across the road. It's like a little slice of heaven on earth...; 12:33 PM, January 03, 2009
