    Black Pepper Jerky

    Thanks! That name is unique, i like it. I may take you up on that offer depending on how my experiment turns out. This batch was in the Little Chief (constant temp at 165 according to manufacturer) for about 5 hrs and then finished in the oven for 2.5 hrs at 170. Really depends on humidity and...

    Black Pepper Jerky

    Thank you for your service! Honey bourbon sounds tasty, I plan on doing some with the grain, just gota figure out a way to rig the smoker to get some decent length pieces. I don't know if I would make any profit in your position. I'd eat all the product lol. Thanks! I enjoyed my second batch...

    Smoking Rainbows

    I actually haven't gotten around to smoking them yet. Hours at work have been crazy and after my first batch of jerky everyone wanted me to make more. Glad your browns turned out, I'll make sure to post pics and do a write-up when I get the time to smoke some rainbows.

    Pepper Jerky Round 2 (with Q-View)

    I can say that in the last batch I didn't get alot of heat from the brine. That's why I increased the ratios in this one, and specifically added the pepper flakes and extra cayenne. There was quite a bit of pepper that stuck to the jerky throughout the smoke. I'll repeat this recipe but grind...

    Pepper Jerky Round 2 (with Q-View)

    Thanks for the feedback everyone, definitely a learning experience. I dont have a vacpacker yet but would like to pick up one soon, and will definitely incorprate white pepper in the next batch. I may try something like a regular marinade and a dry "brine" in various peppers before popping into...

    Pepper Jerky Round 2 (with Q-View)

    Tried cracking a bunch of black pepper on the last batch but just didn't do much for me. May try white pepper or mixed peppercorns on top next time. Current run has another 45 mins on smoker (total of about 6:30) and if I'm not impressed I'll keep mixing it up until I am. This is the tastiest...

    Pepper Jerky Round 2 (with Q-View)

    Last time it seemed like it lost alot of flavor by drying previously. And I wanted as much pepper as possible to stay on. If it doesn't turn out this time I'll try rolling in paper towels before racking.

    Pepper Jerky Round 2 (with Q-View)

    Last go was good for a first try, the extra smokiness was actually pretty good once it rested in the fridge for a few days. Still not what I was looking for: not very spicy, almost no pepper flavor. "Snowpocalypse" ended with us getting about 20" in 48 hrs, decided time to fire up the smoker...

    Black Pepper Jerky

    Now I know. How does the flavor compare to hickory chips? Loads of hickory trees around here, may give it a try.

    Eye of the round jerky try

    Good looking jerky there! Can't beat the price of that round around here, I pay nearly that much for stringly shoulder roast

    Black Pepper Jerky

    Thanks everyone for looking. The bag I took to work didn't last long, everyone enjoyed it. Went to the store and picked up another 12 lbs of the roast. I have 4 lbs marinating in a different recipe now, will probably do up another thread on it once the "snowpocalypse" is over. Don't think I'll...

    Black Pepper Jerky

    5 1/2 hrs in the smoker, three heaping pans of chips (two just JD barrel, last one JD barrel and hickory mix), and 2 1/2 hrs in the oven at 170. A little heavier on the smoke than I would like, so I think next time just three normal size pans of hickory. Also plan on simplifying recipe to...
