Making Jerky Today!

When talking about men, mancaves, manliness, etc I'm just going to start grading on a scale of 1 to 420God. :-P
LOL ++ Rep

I have to make room in the freezer for a pig we just sent to butcher so I'm turning this extra 200lbs of meat into jerky.

I only have seasoning for 60lbs so that's what I'll be doing today. :grin:

I grind all the meat and mix in the seasoning.

Pics when you get it all processed. I want to see what 200# of Jerky looks like.
 
What kind of meat are you using? I assume beef but what cut?

Nice dehydrator, they can be kinda pricey for such a simple design. The best jerky I've made was out of elk tenderloin, but I cut it a tad bit to thick..

I would really like to make some sort of smoke house, particularly for fish... Lol but I have to learn fish better first...
 
Where can i find such a large dehydrator? Can't wait to see what 200 lbs of jerky looks like.

Yeah, this is from one we butchered ourselves. Mainly big chunks of leg meat, no real cuts.
 
Never made jerky...dying to though, heard you gotta deep freeze for 30 days to kill any bacteria...true? And got to slice it under 1\4" thin?
