Cash & Carry has Eye of Round on sale for $2.88/pound. Picked up a nice 6.9 pound roast. Trimmed it of all fat and silver skin and ended up with 5.5 pounds of sliced jerky meat. Mixed up the go to Thai jerky recipe times 5.5, weighed out the proper amount of cure and spun the meat in the vacuum tumbler for 20 minutes. I will smoke this Friday night or Saturday morning.

My knife of choice. I should've froze the roast for a bit after trimming, but I didn't have time so my slices aren't as consistent as I like them to be.


1.4 pounds of trim.


5.5 pounds ready to spin


Spinning!
 
I'm in. I just posted that I really need to make this. Here's to another kick in the pants.
 
I'll probably go buy a couple more of these roasts. Trim them up and then throw them in the freezer for future jerky smokes. I still have all that top round and the pork loin I need to make into jerky too.
 
Into the smoker it goes!

Loaded the expando tube with cherry. Starting out low and slow. Will ramp up the temp every hour or so until I like it or I hit a pit temp of 170.

Case, I love the other recipes I'm using for jerky, but I think you have me talked into trying the Thai jerky. That fish sauce, though, has me concerned. If I open that stuff up at my home, my wife may just ban me from this site. Might have to do it when she isn't here and not keep it around afterward......

It's not too horrible! Some of the really good stuff is, but I can't afford it! As long as you don't spill it on anything you'll be fine.

But if you must use it when SWMBO is away. Make a batch. Let her have a piece and when she says its the best jerky ever you're set!

This is my thoughts also.    The reason I haven't tried it yet.

I have the meat.

In this situation, zip lock bags are your friend.
