...bacon that you cover as much of the shell as possible... Uncovered shell does not cook and stays hard...
For easier filling... If you have a stuffer or jerky cannon with a small tube... That works really well...
If you have both... An easy way to fill the jerky cannon is with the stuffer...
Oh boy! Now I AM jealous!
I really think that will work. I would start checking the jerky every 10 mins or so at the 3.5 hour mark and when you bend a piece and see those cracks that Mr. Smokeit mentioned, pull it off.
If you like softer jerky, you could try cutting across the grain of the...
Thank you sir!
For me it is by look and feel. In my opinion you should be easily able to bend the piece, but it should not droop when you hold it out flat by one end…not sure if I’m making any sense…
What was it you didn’t like about your last batch?
It is a feel and look for me. No more wet look on the outside, when press on it there isnt much give. I will take a piece off let cool and do the bend test. It will bend, not break but will see whiteish strands and cracking. I am by no means an expert so sure there are other ways. Keep temps...
Looks great, I am sure there will be many more spinner rides for you in the future.
Question for all you jerky makers, how do you it is done on the smoker? Is it a look, feel,temp? My first attempt was an utter failure and with the price of beef I am reluctant to step back in the arena.
I think your dog is better trained than I am! Not sure I’d just be standing there so nicely with all that amazing jerky right in front of me! 😆 Maybe he’s not a big bourbon drinker though…
Seriously, good work my friend!
After reading @Quiganomics thread on his sweet bourbon jerky Click here I gave it a shot. Made a cpl modifications by using buffalo trace, white pepper instead of black and added red pepper flakes to spice it up a little. I also ran out of brown sugar so ground up sugar in the raw as a...
...top rounds by hand than the pork belly I have to slice later this week into bacon. If I hadnt seen your recipe I doubt I would have been making jerky. If you are still feeling bad, DM me and I will give you my address to send a check or cash, I also accept paypal, venmo, and zelle. The jerky...
...and a little food grade grease so it slides smoother and will be good to go. Brought it home and sitting on the man cave island. Didnt get the jerky on smoker til 430 though and skipped the air dry sequence. All will be good I think. This is like twice the size of my little 8.7” slicer...
Was making some jerky today using @Quiganomics sweet bourbon recipe slightly modified. Went to turn it on and switch broke. Ugh. Initial tasting of marinade is a thumbs up. Ended up cutting it by hand. Was thinking about a bigger slicer recently. It is a blakeslee 8.7” old, that plastic parts...
I made a batch (almost 8 lbs) of quigs jerky today. Hope to smoke it tomorrow. Made a cpl changes by using white pepper instead of black and add red pepper flakes. Also used top loin since had a cpl in freezer. My slicer switch broke though before got to slice so had to do it by hand. I need...
