About Us

McDonald's Meats location on highway 24 near Highway 10 in downtown Clear Lake, Minnesota.

McDonald's Meat's, Inc. has been in the McDonald's family for three generations—with the fourth close behind. John Leo McDonald took over the Fred Mosford Meat Market in 1914. His son, Richard, took over the business in 1954. The first addition was added at that time to accommodate the growing business. In 1989, Richard's son, Dave, purchased the business. Once again, another addition was added to make room for increased production. Dave also began to experiment with making jerky.

McDonald's Meats has been serving the Clear Lake, St. Cloud and central Minnesota area since 1914. We are  known far and wide as 'The Jerky Stop." Next time you are in Clear Lake, MN stop in and say hello.

Today, we are known far and wide as The Jerky Stop. We carry 23 different varieties of jerky. We have over 40 varieties of fresh and smoked meats, with many items award-winning. Our products are homemade, we have our own smokehouses and sausage kitchen located right in our facility.


You will find Dave and his children all working in the business today, keeping the high commitment to quality and service John Leo started over 95 years ago!
