Consider the first BD image for amd64:
  http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/8.5.0/amd64/jigdo-bd/debian-8.5.0-amd64-BD-1.jigdo
or for 32 bit i386
  http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/8.5.0/i386/jigdo-bd/debian-8.5.0-i386-BD-1.jigdo
Together with their files
  http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/8.5.0/amd64/jigdo-bd/debian-8.5.0-*-BD-1.template
they describe the content of large ISO 9660 images for 25 GB media.
For download instructions see

  https://www.debian.org/CD/jigdo-cd/#how

The resulting ISO image may then be put on the stick by copying it
to its base device file (i.e. /dev/sdc not /dev/sdc1):

  dd if=debian-8.5.0-amd64-BD-1.iso bs=1M of=/dev/sdc

PC-BIOS and EFI should be willing to boot the stick.
Partition editors should afterwards report "DOS" style partitions.
Do not change them. At most add new "DOS" style partitions.


Have a nice day :)
