It finally came in!!!!

I ordered a 80 Liter dehydrator from Cabelas in Feb and got it yesterday. It was a long wait but it is worth it. It is well built and easy to use. I am trying it out right now. I do have a question I am reading the owner's manuel. It says that you should put the meat in the oven and get it to 160. Then put it in the dehydrator. Do yall do this? I am using the Hi Mountain seasonings with the cure.

I do not have one, but just wanted to say congrats!

Thanks I do like making and eating beef jerky.

someone can correct me if im wrong but i believe the reason they want you to bring the meat up to 160 beforehand is so you do not bring bacteria to your dehydrator so i would recommend doing this

and grtz on the purchase....wth took them so long?

 

[chris88]

That is the reason to bring it up to 160 but this is the first time I saw this.

I don't know what took so long.

Did I miss something? if you are making jerky do you really want tok cook it to 160?

Congrats on the dehydrator Chris let us know how it works out. I'm still thinking about getting that model

 

[chris88]

LOL that's way I am asking that question. That is what they have in the manuel that came with it. I don't do that when I make beef jerky.

 

[chris88]

I still need to work on my beef jerky. But I can tell you that it is well built and works great. I am very glade I get it.
