First attempt at jerky on the WSM

[egledhill]

First time making it on a smoker. Picked up a 6# eye round and sliced it last night. Marinaded in Worcestershire, soy, onion powder,black pepper, and crushed red pepper. Had about 5# after trimming so I put in 1tsp of #1 cure. Let it sit overnight, Hung it down through the rack on skewers and dropped it in the smoker. Got the Digi-q running at 170. Figure I'll check it in about 5 hours.

So I yanked it off a few mins ago. Tastes delicious. I think it's done.

Tastes dry enough. Anyone have advise on when you know it's done?
