The short answer: for the lowest cost per stick, buy a bulk bag of unwrapped sticks, from 16 count bags up to 2 lb saddlebags and 120 count bags. If you want grab and go sticks or plan to resell, choose an individually wrapped tub (usually 15 to 20 count) or a box (12 to 100 count).
If your house, office or hunting camp goes through beef sticks fast, buying in bulk is the easiest way to lower your cost per stick. This guide explains the bulk formats we sell, how to pick between wrapped and unwrapped sticks, how to store a big bag, and the ways to save even more.

Wrapped or unwrapped?
Unwrapped bulk bags give you the most sticks for the money. Once you open the bag, plan to finish it within about three weeks, and reseal it tightly between servings.
Individually wrapped sticks cost a little more per stick, but each one stays sealed until you eat it. Choose wrapped sticks if you snack slowly, pack lunches, or want to toss sticks into a bag, truck or tackle box.
