Nothing Says “Bromance” Like a Beef Jerky Broquet for Valentine’s Day

A wise engineer once said, “What does one dude get another dude who is in the hospital without it being awkward?”

A bouquet of flowers seems a bit strange and a gift card would definitely be a lazy, thoughtless gift. If you find yourself in a bind and need a present for your best bro’s special occasion, Say It With Beef has the perfect thing for your carnivorous friends: a “broquet” made with 100-percent beef jerky

There’s nothing wrong with acknowledging a little bromance every now and then, especially when beef jerky is involved. With Valentine’s Day just a few weeks away, why not use the holiday as an excuse to throw some brotherly love your buddy’s way?

The Broquet is an edible “floral” arrangement made entirely of high-quality beef jerky. I picked up a couple of these broquets for my friend slast year, and they were a huge hit — so much that a buddy even returned the favor on my birthday a couple of weeks later. It has now become somewhat of a tradition.

Say It With Beef offers two different, delicious broquets —  roses and daisies — that have changed the guy gift-giving game. Each assortment is intricately designed to resemble a flower, but instead of pollen, this broquet will be blooming with whatever flavor option you choose: original, teriyaki, peppered, or mixed. For the base, you can choose from a pint glass or a beer mug. You know, just to put some more manly touches on your gift.

Each broquet costs $69 for a half-pound of the finest, meaty flora that can be sent anywhere in the U.S. And, if you’re looking for a more romantic Valentine’s gift for your man, a beef jerky broquet might will fit the bill. After all, the best way to a man’s heart is through his stomach … or something.

From Terminator and Titanic to Avatar, these are the best James Cameron movies ever made
James cameron filming Terminator

Few directors understand the popular imagination the way that James Cameron does. He's had commercial instincts since early in his career, and he has now directed three of the five most financially successful films ever made. Given that legacy, it can be easy to mock what Cameron does because it's so overtly populist. He is not always a subtle director, but it's hard to deny that he's an effective one. Unlike some of Martin Scorsese or David Fincher films, James Cameron movies turn into big blockbusters every time, and he always makes them well.
Now, as we look back on his career to date, it's easy to see the throughlines between each of his projects. One thing you might notice: This guy really loves water. Here's every movie Cameron has ever made, ranked.

Ranked: The 11 best Bill Murray movies ever
He's starred in a lot of films, but if you're a fan, you must see these Murray movies
Bill Murray from Lost in Translation

A name that is and should be widely recognized in comedy, Bill Murray has been around to provide laughs for decades. Bringing his own unique qualities to the screen, Murray has carved for himself a niche based on his personality that simply cannot be copied. Between his masterful physical comedy to his perfectly timed and hysterical line deliveries, Bill is truly a one-of-a-kind talent. From his many roles over the years, the films he stars in are either because a certain director or repeat collaborator has a great bond with him, or simply because he is able to steal the spotlight no matter the assignment. Due to this, he has been given opportunities to play cameos in later films such as Dumb and Dumber To, Get Smart, The Grand Budapest Hotel, and a cameo as himself in Zombieland, which has got to be his best cameo.
All the way from wacky and zany to introspectively deep, Bill Murray portrays a lifetime of emotions in our list of films today. If you watch him closely enough, his performative nuances will make you laugh, cry, and think about what it truly means to be an actor. Murray is loved as a human being worldwide (for the most part), who has reportedly shown his face at random bars and parties just for a kick, becoming the owner of four minor league baseball teams, spontaneously studying philosophy and history in Paris, and starting his own golf apparel line. These and many other reasons are why we are here today to celebrate his accomplishments on screen, so sit back and scroll through the 10 best Bill Murray movies ever.
