Ground meat jerky

[rippper]

When making ground meat jerky do you do a double grind? Made ground meat jerky several times and always pleased with the flavor, just not happy with the texture.

I made it with store bought ground beef and liked the texture if that helps???

I assume you did a single grind previously?

Also watching to see what other say. Havent whipped out the grinder in a while but could.

Are you using cure 1 ? If not that's most likely the trouble .

I've made a couple batches of ground meat jerky. turned out good

Do you smoke it whole or slice it first?

Well I have never ground 2 times , texture might have a lot to do with type of meat ground and fat content , I do a lot of deer jerky some years and no added fat
