'Meat' Ron Pflaumer: The Real Food, No Bull, Creator of Fat Cow Jerky

Ever wondered what happens when a blue-collar worker gets fed up with mediocre store-bought snacks? In this episode of the Good Neighbor Podcast you'll hear how Ron Pflaumer, a construction worker from Drexel Hill, PA turned his passion for transferring his weekend barbecue recipes into his award-winning  Fat Cow Jerky—now serving up "udderly perfect jerky" across the tri-state region of Delaware, Pennsylvania and New Jersey, and beyond over the internet.
 
Listen to Good Neighbor Podcast Host Bob Blaisse interview Ron about how the Covid-19 pandemic sparked Ron's jerky journey as a successful business owner when he decided to apply his weekend barbecue expertise to create something better than the overly salted jerky options found at grocery stores. You'll hear how Ron went to his secret ingredients barbecue cabinet to take what he knew was best on a steak to make a better jerky. And how, as Ron shares it, his first batch emerged from the smoker with that distinctive original spice blend recipe, which launched what has become a thriving specialty food business now producing over 120 pounds of jerky every week.

Come to know what makes Fat Cow Jerky stand out, the source of its remarkable flavor diversity now going far beyond Ron's signature original blend, with everything from an award-winning pickle jerky to spicy reaper mango habanero and sweet maple breakfast varieties, to a better bacon jerky that's converting skeptics everywhere. And not to be forgotten are Ron’s four-legged fans who beg for his "Canine Cuts" jerky that delivers pawfect single meat ingredient treats with a touch of hickory smoke that dogs love. 

Listen and learn from the hardworking Delco spirit of Ron Pflaumer who still maintains his day job as an elevator constructor in Philadelphia, but who, together with his girlfriend Taylor (Ron calls the pretty face of the company), work weekend festivals throughout the Delaware Valley Region to meet jerky lovers and to fulfill orders from fans who buy online directly through their Fat Cow Jerky website.
