better way to make Jerky

[Jersey Jimbo]

I will be smokin some jerky. I have read you can lay it on the racks or suspend them with toothpicks, Is there any difference with the outcome. and I think you can fit more in the smoker hanging them. Will be doing this in a CC smoker thanks for any and all input.

I've done that before. Works good. Just added prep time is all

I use stainless BBQ skewers in my Smokin-It . I think I get quicker dehydration and more even results, don't have to rotate racks. I can get 7-8# on one rack without crowding.
