Behind the Brand


Welcome to Big John's Macro Snax!

When you spend your life battling your weight, food cravings, and portion control, it’s easy to feel frustrated with food. I tried everything – fad diets, cutting out certain foods, and restricting myself – but nothing ever stuck. It became an endless cycle of disappointment that kept me from feeling strong and healthy.

Growing up, I was always active. Between football and the weight room, I ate big meals and worked out hard to stay athletic. But, like a lot of guys, life changed. I got older, started a family, and became a husband and dad. Before I knew it, I had the classic “Dad Bod” – and people seemed to celebrate it. But deep down, I wasn’t happy.

In 2022, I decided to make a change. After seeing other men take control of their lives through diet and fitness, I started my own journey. Over the next few months, I lost 75 pounds, completely transforming my health and mindset. The secret? The Macro Diet. It’s a system where you know exactly how much protein, carbs, and fats to eat every day, based on your body, your goals, and your lifestyle. For the first time in my life, I felt free. No more guessing, no more failure – just results.

Later that year, a road trip to Las Vegas changed everything. Stopping at a gas station in the middle of the California desert, I was hungry. The shelves were filled with snacks, but nothing that fit my macros. I grabbed a bag of jerky and thought, why is this the only option for protein? As a guy who loves meat, I’ve always been picky about texture. And why wasn’t chicken – my favorite protein source – on the shelves?

 

That’s when the idea for Big John’s Macro Snax was born. A snack company that provides high-protein, medium-carb, low-fat gourmet brisket beef and boneless, skinless chicken jerky.
