Ken, evening..... Trying to dry meat with a liquid in the water pan won't work too good.... The liquid evaporates creating steam, and hinders the drying process.... Try it without water using the same temps and you should have great results..... Dave
Ken your temps sound good, I did some jerky from corned beef a couple of weeks ago on the Q-Matz using about the same temps and it turned out great.
How thick were your strips sliced?
