Perk N Jerk

I mean...when you see a drive-through coffee and beef jerky spot, you HAVE to stop, right? This is a quintessential (non-alien) Roswell experience, and I'm SO glad I stopped by!

I arrived less than an hour before closing, but I managed to luck out with the flavors of jerky I wanted - Mike (the owner) still had them on hand! My fiancé is a fan of beef jerky and I wanted to bring some back to him in Orlando. He requested the Carne Asada, which I wouldn't have chosen for myself but it ended up being one of my favorite flavors. I also ordered the sea salt and pepper (ingredients: beef, sea salt, pepper) and the green chile. Mike didn't have any left in the fridge, but he benevolently went out to the smoker to see if the green chile was ready, and I got it so fresh we couldn't zip the bag closed until it cooled completely. Such great customer service. And it's so delicious!

I also tasted a few other flavors, and they were all amazing. My surprise favorite was the lemon pepper. This is BY FAR the most superior beef jerky I've had. I hope my parents come back on my behalf!

We topped off the experience with raspberry hot chocolate. Although I'm not a coffee at 4pm kinda gal, the fact they have Black Rifle Coffee is also a bonus in my book! I highly recommend stopping in!

This place was awesome! The time and effort put into making gourmet jerky is beyond compare. The gentleman running the operation is truly a master of his craft.

The best beef jerky! We went with original, lemon pepper and Hawaiian bbq habanero… can’t say enough about it and the fraps were delicious!

Mr Mike fixed us up with two SUPERBLY AWESOME coffee drinks for the road. And his homemade beef jerky is STELLAR!!
Thank you Mike for the warm welcome and refreshing drinks and yummy jerky!!

The best coffee I have ever had & the owner was SO nice, not to mention Best prices too!
Will absolutely be back!

The coffee was amazing as well as the gentleman who owns it. Great Veteran owned in a tiny establishment. He was a humble man who was letting us sample everything. I highly recommend this gem of a coffee house. It felt personable and homey. 💯😊

This owner is absolutely amazing very kind man BEST jerky in town I highly recommend getting some great jerky from this place!!

Absolutely the best beef jerky in New Mexico! And pretty good coffee too. It's best to drive through because the building is tiny and the smell of smoke jerky will permeate your clothes. Be sure to make this little shop a "must stop!"

Local tiny hideaway totally worth a stop! They brew some darn good plain old coffee but also has plenty of options to get fancy but the beef jerky is the gem! Lots of flavors but original and cowboy are ridiculously good!

Owner Mike, former Marine, makes own jerky - lots of flavors - and also serves awesome coffee/ lattes! A must visit if passing through Roswell!
