Thread: time for the deer and beef jerky

spending the weekend in the kitchen looks like..... doing big batches of deer and beef jerky to bring for the month
making room for hopefully some fish to fill the meat spot in the freezer, till I get a couple more deer this season

Yum I likes me some deer jerky

round 1....deer ....marinating over nite and headed for the dehydrator tomorrow morning ....then maybe beef tomorrow ....slice and marinate to be dehydrated Monday ....busy, busy ....packing Tuesday, waiting on our youngest to get back in town, so we can leave

.

I would like to try some of your deer jerky when I meet up with you on the gaff if you don't mind.

chef the earlier the better in my trip....it doesn't last long, when the bag comes out....so??? but I do try and limit the exposure with in reason....the bad part is here....keeping it away from the family while it is dehydrating....
they try and be sneaky...take a few pieces from each rack and move others around to hide the evidence of the theft and the extra room they created on the rack

looking for the beef this morning, I found extra deer, (I knew I should have had more) and would have been nice on the grill over the summer months....Oh well, it is jerky now and darn good too ....2 dehydrators done with the 3rd + started and ready to marinate the other batch with a little beef mixed in.... but not much.....man that deer is soooooo tender and tasty
