Thanks RJ. I followed your links and the various recipes, and have ordered a dehydrator (and Liquid Smoke - many types to trial). I've been buying Jerky (pricey), but would now like to make it in bulk cause the rats (kids) seem to raid it all - can't hide that stuff. They can now make their own :lol:
Follow up: again shows the depth of this site, and I've been a member for nearly 6 months. Not keen on the mankini tho
LOL. Its not for everyone.
Gotta make jerky in bulk. It goes so fast. its not hard to omprovize a dryer/smoker as u ou dont need high heat. More a warm, dry airflow.

I was into it when living in the States in the 80s, but only back into it recently out in the Vic GT. I'll start slow till the recipes prove out, then bulk up.

Just brilliant Jamie
With some time on my hands, I have followed some of the jerky recipes and am loving it (so are kids). Drier running as I write.Ramjet said:
Laying out the meat in the drier is a pain though - must buy thicker steak in the future - mmmmm
Heart smart silverside makes not bad jerky has low salt content put in freezer for about an hour firms it up a bit before cutting into strips I've tried heaps of different meats and it doesn't seem to matter if you make a good batch or bad it all still gets eaten cheers Muk.

+1 on the silverside. Infact the cheaper cuts of meat fit the bill. I've marinated top dollar steaks and the jerky doesn't come out any tastier.
A big fan of the spicey jerky and like to add a couple teaspoons of 3 million + shu chilli extract to the marinade. It's about 125 times as hot as tabasco sauce. The meat soaks it up and brings the heat right into the core. My family love hot food but it's also made unsuspecting grown men cry.

About the only thing it doesn't cure is gold fever.
As I read this, my mouth is watering. I only have to think about hot food for it to happen!
