Pork Barrel BBQ and FERIDIES, manufacturers and distributors of the World’s Best Peanuts and Other Specialty Foods, are proud to have formed partnership to produce and distribute Pork Barrel BBQ Peanuts.

FERIDIES, a family-owned and operated business based in Courtland, Virginia, is widely recognized for its selection of super extra large gourmet Virginia type peanuts. The company partnered Pork Barrel BBQ sauce and dry rub to provide the one-of-a-kind specialty barbecue-flavored peanuts to customers around the world.

“People love barbecue and peanuts, so it makes sense for us to combine these favorites and please the tastebuds of people across America and around the world,” said Heath Hall, President and co-founder of Pork Barrel BBQ “We’re proud to partner with FERIDIES, a family-owned business that’s been producing quality products for 38 years. Our businesses are perfect examples of living the American dream and we’re having a lot of fun sharing our passion for high quality food products with everyone who craves the unique combination of our award-winning barbecue and the world’s best peanuts.”

“FERIDIES is known as an innovator in offering the world’s best peanuts and specialty foods, and we are proud to bring this barbecue-flavored peanut to the marketplace,” said Jane Riddick-Fries, co-founder of FERIDIES. “We take pride in our peanut products and are thrilled to showcase the new Pork Barrel BBQ-flavored variety. People love the Pork Barrel BBQ sauces and dry rub on their meats, poultry, and mixed in side dishes, and now they can enjoy it on FERIDIES peanuts.”

Both FERIDIES and Pork Barrel BBQ are known for their attention to quality and nutrition. FERIDIES selects the largest 2% of the peanut crop each year and gently roasts them in small batches by hand in pure peanut oil to keep them cholesterol free, to preserve their natural peanut taste and to maintain their healthy qualities. No artificial preservatives are added to their extra large Virginia-type peanuts.
