    Jerky making experiences so far

    Thanks for all of the replies. For the initial batch, yes to the meat tenderizer, no to the cure in all of the batches due to the short time it takes for us to finish off all of the jerky. I do have cure now however and will begin using it. The meat tenderizer I used doesn't list MSG as an...

    Jerky making experiences so far

    So, my uncle bought me a dehydrator (Cabela's Pro Harvester 5 Rack) for Christmas and I've made a few batches with varying results/success. First few times, I used one of the recipes that came in the dehydrator's manual: 2lbs Beef round 1/4 Soy sauce 2 tbls Worcestershire Sauce 2 tbls Brown...

    Beef jerky

    When you say you slice the frozen meat, how frozen are we talking about here? I've been leaving mine in the freezer for about an hour to slice easier, but I feel like it needs more time.

    160 temp question

    160 temp question

    So I understand (brand new to this). I preheat at 27 AFTER the jerky is done right? Seen a lot of different things on this subject around the internet, but the article you linked really help. Using a dehydrator, set at 160, dehydrate for (blank) amount of hours, then toss in the pre-heated oven...

    Ground beef jerky sticks

    My uncle got me a dehydrator for Christmas: Cabela’s Harvester Pro Five Tier and I’ve been using it a lot since I got it. So far, round steak has come out great as has sirloin. Wife wanted jerky sticks so used one of the recipes that came with the jerky gun I bought. Everything looked good...
