It’s what ever came with my presto
dehydrator not sure what it is
It's good starter mix. I used it with mine, and it was likable.
I quickly ruined a couple of batches in various ways after that. But even though I don't care for them, my dog likes them fine. So he's getting smidgen with his food.
But I've come to realize I'm an Original Flavor sort. But I doctor it up with 1/2 tsp of Cyan, and 1/4 tsp of smoked Paprika. Gives it a nice warm burn goin down. I began with 1 tsp and a half tsp. :eek:
I liked
this one so much that I made up some DRY in a jar so I can pull 6 tsp to a pound of lean ground beef, add the Worcester and Soy Sauce, mix well, and use right away. But an hour or two in the fridge lets it blend nice. Optional.
I also add my cyan and smoked paprika.
For long muscle beef, I like
this one. Here again, I add my hot secret of Cyan and smoked paprika. But like it set in the fridge for a time in a Ziploc bag with as much air removed as possible, and massage it now and then just to try and mix it around.
Get the extra mesh screens, they are nice and
not too expensive through Walmart. Comes to the store, or comes to your door.
Same with
Prague #1. And if you want (I did)
the fruit roll up pans.
I ordered them together. Two of the twofer screens (total 4), and two of the twofer flats. The Prague comes in a one pound plastic jar. It's quite a bit.
With those additions, you'll be set to try many of the recipes. Or make your own!
The Prague is a key ingredient that makes the meat taste like the Jerky you loved as a kid. But use it correctly!
Lastly, oil your screens or racks! I've had the hardest time remembering that. I finally got out one of my unused vinegar and oil dispensing bottles, half filled it with Canola Oil, and I put a quarter sized blob on a paper towel and wipe down my screens. Before I had my 6 screens, I did the racks I didn't have screens for.
And likewise for the fruit roll up trays, because after a good meal of Jerky, a fruit roll up is dessert.
Can you tell I like mine? I run mine on the chest freezer out in the garage shop. 1. It's quiet out there. 2. Boy howdy the shop smells good.
Incidentally, Liquid Smoke, there doesn't seem to be anything other than
a dash and taste as to how to mix the stuff.
