It all started on a river in Mohican Valley in the heart of Ohio. My family belonged to a British car club the MGA Buckeyes! My father and his fellow MG enthusiasts would bring their families and camp for the weekend every summer. Music, canoeing and laughs around the fire would bring us together. We would grill steaks and burger right over the fire! I was always watching how they were seasoned and cooked. And one of our favorite snacks would be home made jerky, beef sticks, and nut mixes. Through the years my father would try different flavors and present them during the holidays and family events. As I started my own family I took what I learned and put my heart and soul into cooking, grilling and the flavored snacks waiting to see the look on everyone's faces as they bit into my new creation. What came later was a passion to bring these flavors to the masses and share the same snacks that gave my family joy during every adventure and family gathering.
Long before GOAT meant "The greatest of all time". This is before the internet and yes way before Michael Jordan retired. And also after we owned pigmy goats for 4H. My High School friends nicked named my Dad "The Old Goat" specifically. He came about this name for his uncanny impression of a "talking goat" from one of our favorite comedy albums. He wore it proud collecting goat figures, making an Old Goat sissy bar for his motorcycle and even brewed a few Old Goat Beers. Eventually I was being called Goatjr thanks "Aunt Jan". I embraced the name and it only made sense that it would be called Goatjr's .
The concept behind our Deep Fried Peanuts made it challenging to bring to market. Being a "craft brand" our process takes longer. When it came to seasonings, we wanted something that added to the grilling and smoking experience that was traditional yet gave something extra you couldn't get from just standard seasonings. After years of R&D and over a year of preparation we finally launched in the summer of 2022! In addition to our online store, we can be seen at local Medina county farmers markets and craft shows.
The original GOAT (Ronnie) created unique snacks in his home and shared it with friends and family during holidays and other gatherings. The taste and texture of his homemade jerky, craft beers, and other snacks were a unique and classic as the man himself. Goatjr's strives to represents the passion and enjoyment that was put into everything he did. We miss you Dad.
