We made 45 lbs of Deer jerky in the smokehouse over the weekend. We made 8 flavors from plain to Honey Habanero- Smoked it at 180-200 for 6.5 hours- Really turned out good

Eddie, Welcome to the forum, nice looking jerky with a good mix.  Your walk in reminds me of the one that I had when in Indiana.

Welcome Eddie!

Your Jerky looks really good! Love the paint job on the smoker! Is it wood fired? Tell us some more about your smoke shack.

Looks Good Eddie! What were the other flavors. Did you have a favorite?

 

[eddie helber]

On the flavors we did Plain, Teriyaki, Sweet, Honey Habanero, Jalapeno, Garlic, My favorite has to be the Habanero & jalapeno, But they are all good.

The Walk in smoker is Approx.. 5x5x8, Sealed & insulated all the way around, We put in 2 Dampers at the top, 1 in front & 1 in back to control the Smoke & heat. Along with that our Stove pipe has a Damper on it as well. We have awesome control over both the smoke & the heat. We have a industrial 2ft thermometer mounted on the outside. The firebox is fueled by wood, made from 2 in concrete slabs, We ran a 6in SS Stove pipe to the floor of the smokehouse.

Thanks for the comments, I love smoking meat & im doing more & more as time allows me too

Looks good you can never have too much jerky. Do you have a recipe for the jerky or is it a mix you buy? If its a recipe do you mind sharing?

Welcome Eddie......

Love the smoker. I wanted to build one similar but time got in the way. And that jerky looks killer.

I'm with "wennmann".....do you mind sharing the recipes? I'm always in for a new jerky recipe.

Thanks,

Brad
