@AGLOADING26 from @SrHighFootball is the @Minguabeefjerk “Protein-packed Performer of the Week.” @PrepSpin, @KyHighFootball

Ronnie Mingua began experimenting with making beef jerky back in the 1990s. He shared his efforts with neighbors and friends, soon realizing he had come up with something different and superior to all other beef jerkies on the market. From these humble beginnings, Mingua Beef Jerky got its start.

Today, the Mingua Beef Jerky Company still prides itself on using its old-fashioned, all-natural recipes which offer outstanding products to customers across the nation. The recipes are a family tradition, passed down from generation to generation. 

Migua Beef Jerky uses Enviro-Pac CHU-2000 equipment to cook its meat to USDA required levels for both moist or dry operation. Mingua Beef Jerky wants you to become one of its many satisfied customers by sampling its quality hand sliced, all natural beef jerky. We know you’ll love it and come back for more, again and again. 

Our recipes and our quality ingredients, hand-cut from solid pieces of beef and never chopped or formed like other brands, make our products superior and one of a kind. That would make our products similar to this week’s Protein Packed Performer of the Week, Isaac Dixon, RB/DB, from Belfry, Kentucky, wouldn’t it? 

It isn’t everyday the Protein-packed Performer of the Week will be a running back averaging over 20-yards per rushing attempt and scoring a TD between every third and fourth carry with his team halfway through its season. Friday night was just another remarkable performance for a guy who many consider the most explosive and perhaps fastest member of the graduating class of 2021 Kentucky-wide. 

Austin Gough has shown KPGFootball for years that he has a versatile skill-set capable of contributing to team victories in various ways. Often, Gough has shown the ability to do this on multiple sides of the football.

Friday night was a game where Owensboro (Senior) High School was going to have to travel, cross-town, and play an Owensboro Catholic football team Senior’s head coach, Jay Fallin, had never before beaten on the road. So, the Red Devils had to travel into the belly of the beast, if you will (Steele Stadium), and win where Coach Fallin had always before fallen short.

This short-fall is notwithstanding the fact the Red Devils are in the 5A classification and the Aces, from Catholic, are 2A. Matters like “classification” and “enrollment” mean very little in Kentucky high school football. There are countless examples of this every week.

Coach Fallin called on his senior play-maker, Austin Gough, to make winning plays for his ball club. Like always, Gough was up to the challenge and ready to do whatever was asked of him.

Austin Gough, a two time AP, All-State football player, with multiple college, D-1 football offers, contributed to the Red Devils win, at Catholic, in every conceivable way a player can contribute to his team. Gough had 8-tackles, recovered a fumble, deflected a key pass on a key down, and scored a rushing TD at RB which was, like the pass deflection, at a key moment in the ball game with the outcome very much in question. If you will look at the film of the TD-run, you will see Gough ran over about four opposing defenders on his way to pay dirt and what would be important points.

This was coach Fallin’s first ever win over Catholic, at Catholic, since Fallin has been at Owensboro (Senior). The “Red Devils” escaped Steele Stadium, 28-14.

Congratulations to Austin Gough, Class of 2021, from Owensboro (Senior) High School in Owensboro, Kentucky for being selected the Mingua Beef Jerky Company’s Protein-packed Performer of the Week. Join us next week as the Mingua Beef Jerky Company recognizes another, one of a kind performer.

Until then, pop some Mingua Beef Jerky in your mouth and savor the quality and flavor which sets it apart from all the competition. Remember, our product is superior and one of a kind, just like Senior’s Austin Gough.

This is HB Lyon reporting for Kentucky Prep Gridiron reminding you that WE’RE JUST CALLING IT LIKE WE SEE IT!
