Lime and liquid smoke infused, this tastes better than it looks. |
Probably used more than I needed. Heh... |
All tucked in... |
Next comes foil...
Almost done. |
Sorry for the glare... |
Do you own a dehydrator? Are you familiar with the many foods this process helps preserve?

That is a clever trick. I don't own a dehydrator, nor do I have need of one. Alton Brown on Good Eats did an episode where he "created" one with a box fan and some air filters, if memory serves. Probably easier to use the gadget if you do it enough.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the kind word and input. :)
DeleteGood idea. The jerky looks good. I have a dehydrator, but it is a cheap one that I can only dry herbs in.
ReplyDeleteBut that's awesome. ~grin~ That saves lots of money.
DeleteNo dehydrator, but I often oven dry fruits or vegees, at lowest setting for hours. Have you ever made pemmican? I used to make it before going to Alaska. It's an old Indian way to carry food that lasts forever and in its basic form is just rendered fat and dried meat, usually buffalo or beef, dried to a powder and mixed into the rendered fat, usually bacon fat nowadays, equal parts. Some people now make vegan pemmican I hear, with coconut oil and nut powder and dried powdered berries. High calorie stuff that lasts forever.

DeletePemmican is not something we've tried but should. Thanks for the tip!
DeleteDad wanted me to ask you to send him some of that jerky, though he says mom would not allow it. He knows that trick well from many years in the foodservice industry. Hope that tastes good!
ReplyDeleteAwww... I feel bad for him, though your humans will probably outlive Jezebel's mom and dad. ~shakes head~ Be well!
DeleteNo I do not have one of those...I am not sure I would even use one if I had one.
