    My Fritz Jerky..

    Well Fritz..I did not know it would stiffen later..It would bend after 6 & 7 hours. It was really greasy so I left it longer. I probably should have pulled it off around 6 1/2 or 7 hours. Next time I will pull it quicker. Pad the grease and let it cool..Then see how stiff it gets. The thinner...
