Our Journey

When we set out to change the world, we started by pulling back from it. Sovereign Warrior was founded on the belief that leading with heart, health, and gratitude brings us back to what truly matters.
That clarity led us to the majestic Bitterroot Valley in Montana, where the land is bountiful and the bison still roam.
Finding our place in this small community meant showing up and contributing: Lance, as a wildland firefighter, and Yasmeen, as a creative cook and entrepreneur.
Through sustainable practices, handcrafted integrity, and flavor-rich nutrition, we’ve created a bison jerky unlike any other. One taste of it, and the power of following your heart becomes deliciously clear.

Our whole muscle jerky is made with 100% grass-fed and finished bison from Wild Idea Buffalo—a regenerative company that practices humane field harvesting. Their buffalo are never given antibiotics or hormones, and they roam freely across the prairie, just as nature intended. Wild Idea’s commitment to restoring the land and honoring the animal is one we deeply respect and are proud to support.
Our Bites come from Creekside Ranch, just five minutes down the road. This is the ranch that inspired our entire business. They raise their bison with care, integrity, and a respect for life. Each animal is humanely harvested—quietly and instantly—in a way that honors their spirit and preserves the peace of the land they’ve known.
When you purchase our jerky, you’re supporting small family ranches who are doing things differently—raising bison with reverence, restoring ecosystems, and helping us all remember how real food is meant to be.
