Pandora, here are some pics of the homemade jerky process.

Early yesterday morning I picked up a round roast to experiment with. I
normally use sirloin tip for beef jerky. By mid morning the strips were
cut and marinating. Here's the pics.

Thank you, Pat. You are very kind if you have made it for me🙂

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! I've never seen such a
thing!
Is it also useful for dehydrate herbs , mushrooms and tomatoes, for example?

Well! If you want to know, the appearance of the meat is not exactly

still going. It will be another hour or two before all the jerky is

Ah ! OK! Thank you very much for these exciting pictures of the misterious
jerky!

So what do you eat it with? or do you eat it on it's own? For a snack? Is
there a simple way to make it without a dehydrator?
You've got me interested now I've seem what it looks like!

Ohhhhhhhh! Very interesting! Also the prices 🙂
I don't know why they don't sell the small one in Italy! I have never seen
them in the shops! perhaps to save the dehydrate food industry....

I could try to ask them how much does it costs (with shipping included).
Because I think that shipping is more then the cost of the item in itself.
Here is why it would be wonderful to find it in italian shops!
BTW are you in contact with this english agent? have you got an e-mail
address?
I could contact him (perhaps is more convenient).

No problem 🙂 By kids have been after some and we were out. I'll be
making a couple more batches.

What did you put in the marinate? It looks like tomato sauce!

This marinate is a spicey homemade bbq sauce with a little soy sauce,
worchestershire sauce, & spices added. I use different marinates for a
variety of jerky. We tend to like it on the spicey side though.

It's very handy to have. Mine is quite old and this may be the last
year I use it as I have my eye on an Excaliber dehydrator. They are the
top line dehydrators 🙂

Sarah

Sarah, we eat it as a snack. I generally keep a container of it in the
fridge or cupboard so we just grab a piece when we feel like a snack.
There really is no need to refrigerate it. The simplest dehydrator
consists of a wood frame with a piece of screening attached so if you
wanted to make one it is fairly easy. However, the easiest way to do
jerky without a dehydrator is to place cooling racks (the metal racks
you cool cakes on) onto a large cookie sheet to catch any drips then dry
in the oven at a very low heat - 150 F. I would suggest this method to
see if you like jerky before you invest in a dehydrator. If you watch
the sales you should be able to pick up one for about $30. Excalibur is
the top of the line costing a little over $200. Other things we enjoy
dehydrated include - apple slices for snacking & floating in hot apple
cider, banana chips for snacking, herbs, onions, zucchini, mushrooms.

I'm learning all sorts of great food ideas here, especially the pumpkin pie
and pumpkin cheesecake recipes!
I'll try the oven method like you suggest before spending big bucks!

I'm going to do some research with the recipes and have a go at the jerky,

Recipes for jerky marinade can be simple or complex. The simplest is to
use commercial bbq sauce. I like using homemade using worcestershire
sauce, soy sauce, and spices. You can even buy pre-made jerky marinade
mixes. I saw them at Dunham's - a sporting store.
Here's a website to get you going

O

The square dehydrator is wonderful. Do get the model with the timer. I have
the 9 tray model and I love it. Makes about 4 1/2 lbs of jerky in about 4
1/2 hours. It can also be usecd to makes fruit rollups, yogurt, raise bread
dough, dry herbs, etc.
It is my understanding that the round models of dehydrators only have the
fan on the bottom and so the jerky does not dry evenly throughout the
machine. On the excalibur model, the fan is in the back in the middle of the
box and dries more uniformly.
