Oh I totally misread that, my bad KS!I can get pork loin for just under $3 a lb. But the butchers that sell teriyaki pork jerky are selling it for $20+ a lb. Just as much as their beef jerky at some places.
Know that I have the know how. I figure I can make a good 5 to 6lbs of my own jerky for what the butcher stores are asking for a lb.
I've noticed that the pork seems to be more tender as well. The 2 styles I have tried at the meat markets were teriyaki and Hawaiian.
I actually have plans for my next one to be tropical... I recommend going through jerkyholic's recipes, but don't scale the liquid up per pound. You basically scale it up enough to completely cover/submerse the meat, not more as you can see in this recipe.
