Well I couldn't find any cure at the store yesterday so I am going to have to smoke the jerky without the cure. I had planned to smoke at 165 degrees for 4-6 hours but I am worried that I won't be able to get the meat out of the danger zone as soon as I should. What temps should I set my smoker...

I apologize for not answering your replies sooner, being new to the forum I couldn't find the thread again until now.
I really do appreciate the information, I will post how the smoker turns out, thanks again.

I hope this is posted in the right place. I have an older Smokey Mountain Series charcoal smoker that I converted into an electric several years back. The element or controls went out last year and I am just now getting around to replacing them. The element and control I had in the smoker I took...
