OMG, it's so crazy that you mention this. My friend keeps telling me that I HAVE to try it...he says it's like a "Slim Jim" (not sure if you have those over in the U.K) only chewier ;):p

I duno what brand the Jerky is, down my local shop...red and blue pack lol

I've seen an online Uk shop that has Jack Link's Jerky, and it's in different flavours: teriyaki, original, peppered, sweet & hot, hickory... If I like the stuff from the shop, I might order one of the 6pack selection packs to try out the flavours.

Well slim jim's are like...spicy meat things...(best I could do) ;) So if you like...pepperoni...you'll probably like the beef jerky. I've yet to try it myself.

yeah, I like pepperoni so spicy meat or jerky sounds more of an interesting snack, than just eating boring old crisps.

Beef, or for that matter ANY jerky is dehumidified and dried meat.
I've had lamb, and chicken also.
Goes well with beer, if done properly it's actually very good, and ultra chewy, keeps you going for some time.
I myself recently had some REAL, freshly made jerky from one of the farmers out by my dads place...sadly though, the store bought pre packaged stuff doesn't come close, however, either is quite good for a beer snack, road trips...etc.
If you're going brand name, all I can suggest is "Nobbys", from the same company that does nuts and things...assuming of course, that's available to you.
If not, well, have fun trying many a package of overpriced, substandard crap...you'll eventually find a good one.
OR
You can buy a unit that prepares jerky at home quite cheaply, some of which are also excellent for preparing tomatoes and fruit.
