The Bingeworthy Story
A snack hack we couldn’t keep secret.
Bingeworthy Snacks started when our founder, Alex, was following a Paleo-Carnivore diet. He was eating clean, high-protein, and low-carb.
Things were going great. Alex was getting bigger, leaner, and stronger.
But there was one problem. He missed chips.
The salty, crispy, can’t-stop-eating-them kind.
Alex wondered if there was a meat snack out there that could satisfy those cravings without derailing his diet. He’d tried ordering beef chips online, but nothing quite hit the spot.
So he turned to his friend Ian, a third-generation butcher and asked him a simple question:
Could he create the perfect Beef Crisp?
Ian was up for the challenge.
It took a couple months to get the recipe just right, but eventually Alex had his own personal supply of what he considered the tastiest, crunchiest Beef Crisps on the planet.
So Alex called his brand-building pal, Aron, and pitched him the idea of turning their little snack experiment into a business.
Aron tried the Beef Crisps and was immediately in.
The three friends got to work. And when it came time to name their new snack brand, Aron kept coming back to one simple idea:
They’re good for you.
Bingeworthy, even.
And just like that, Bingeworthy Snacks was born.
What started as one guy’s quest to replace potato chips had become something much bigger.
All the crunch. A whole lot of protein. And a snack worth sharing.

Alex Czartoryski
The Original Customer
Alex is an entrepreneur who has built several successful businesses. His interest in health, nutrition, and fitness has shaped much of his adult life.
Bingeworthy Snacks began because Alex wanted a clean, tasty snack that he'd truly enjoy eating and that was genuinely good for him.
At Bingeworthy, Alex leads operations, strategy, and product development, obsessing over taste, texture, and the exact amount of crispiness a Beef Crisp should have.
He is also one of Bingeworthy's most dedicated customers, eating three to five large bags a week.

Ian Slipacoff
The Butcher
Known to many online as The Silver Fox Butcher, Ian is a third-generation butcher who also founded one of North America’s first online meat subscription services.
When Alex asked Ian to create a clean beef snack that actually tasted good, Ian’s expertise allowed them to skip the focus groups and start experimenting with different cuts, thicknesses and cooking techniques.
The result was something completely unique - thin slices of real beef, handmade and baked until crispy. No sugar, no oils, and none of the fillers found in many conventional meat snacks.
Just a legendary butcher rethinking the snack aisle.

Aron Slipacoff
The Storyteller
Aron is a brand builder, marketer, and storyteller. He’s also Ian’s cousin, and comes from the same line of butchers.
When Aron tasted Ian and Alex’s Beef Crisps, he knew they had something special, and couldn't wait to start telling the world about the highest protein per calorie snack on the shelves.
At Bingeworthy, Aron leads marketing and customer experience. He is also responsible for most of the words on the website, including the repeated insistence that Beef Crisps are not jerky.
They're not.
Please stop calling them jerky.
