History

Established in 1981.

Back in the Old West, when they took cattle on the trail to get their cattle to market, Pack Jack was known for having his seasonings when he was out on the trail. The cowboys were eating dry biscuits and jerky, so they would find Pack Jack by following the smoke — they knew they could get a good meal: world-​famous Pack Jack beans and slow-​smoked meats.

Pack Jack was a family member. When he was a kid, he grew up in Egypt, Texas and worked in the ranch kitchen. As he got older, he went out with the cowboys. He liked cooking so he took his kitchen out on the trail. Pack Jack came to California through an inheritance of property in Sebastopol. My parents were retired, and one day my dad came back from golfing with his friends and decided to cook some food. He started cooking and people started showing up and, boom, there is Pack Jack in Sebastopol. That was in the 1980s.
