Making Beef Jerky

[volinbham]

Bought a dehydrator.

Looking for any advice/wisdom/tips on making good jerky.

So far I've just done the ground beef version with the jerky gun. First batch was "meh" with included seasoning - kinda like a Slim Jim.

I'm on batch two with some sweet hot BBQ sauce as the flavor. Will be better but I'm ready to move towards the real stuff.

Fire away.

Strangely the best jerky i've ever had was Buffalo Jerky.

I tried this long ago Bham. The key is in the spices. Get creative my friend. Also, I wonder if sriraccha can help out?

Well this thread went about as well as I thought it would after reading the title. I hope nobody ever needs sausage advice in the pub.

Oh, I thought this thread was about giving cattle the twitches. My bad.

YV beat me to it. I know a guy that blends the venison with beef to make his jerky, and it is GOOD!

Sirloin cut thin. Then spice as you like it. Make sure to remove all fat from any cut. That stuff does not dehydrate. Also flank, or basically any cut that is on the lean side.

Get some London broil and cut it up as thick or thin as you want it(electric knife does wonders). Marinate 24 hours in the flavor of your choice then put it on the dehydrator. Trial and error my friend with the marinating. You will figure out what you like best.

2nd batch is much better. Still ground beef so that's inferior but I mixed it with a meat glaze that's a sweet hot carribean style. Quite delicious.

I need to find a butcher that will slice the meat for me. Though I will try the electric knife.

Those that have done it - do you use a cure and if so what do you use? The dehydrator came with some but I've used it sparingly. Am dehydrating at 160. Have seen conflicting advice on the webz
