Jerky W/QVIEW

 Great job Blue on that jerky! Last time I tried making jerky I about cut my finger off... Couldn't wait for the meat to thaw a little. Plus don't try cutting frozen meat while your half lit. LOL! I'll have to give it another shot (sober this time)... Take Care, Smokin - K

Great looking jerky Blue.

I've never made jerky, but after this post I'm going to.

What is the shelf life with it shrink wrapped.

I was volunteered to make jerky for 80 soldiers in Afganistan by Christmas This is going to be an honororable smoke to say the least. I use what is called Rouladen cut of beef, about 1/4"thick and I cut it into strips. I told them to get 40 lbs of beef, thinking with shrinkage i would lose 25% Am I right on my thinking?????

i generally use around 55-60% of my meat weight when i do mine. i smoke for a couple hours for flavor then into the dehydrator for about 7 hours. when you suck out all that moisture you lose alot of weight.

My last three batches I lost between 42 and 44%

Do you still put jerky seasoning on the meat when you make jerky via a smoker? Or is it just personal preference?

 You would have to have some type of cure on it for it not to spoil.

I marinate overnight then get pretty dried off and season with smoked pepper or crushed red pepper. I like my jerky sweet & spicy..

5cloves garlic crushed

2 TBL granulated onion

1 TBL crushed red pepper

1 TBL cracked black pepper

2/3 cup brown sugar

2/3 cup soy sauce

1/2 cup teriyaki sauce

1/4 cup worcestershire

1/4 cup pineapple juice concentrate

1/3 cup balsamic vinegar

1 TBL liquid smoke or to taste

! use this for about 10-15# top round or london broil

This is my secret recipe, don't tell anyone..:)

Mine doesn't last long enough to spoil! I also vacuum seal and freeze, and take out at my leisure..

great job, i love the hanging method. the first few times i made jerkey i had always layed in on the racks. the fat that did render stayed on top and kind of pooled making the jerkey feel and taste greasy. i started to do the hanging method and had much better results.

looks great!
