Current batch is running 24hrs on 90° Biltong is sun and wind-dried meat A South African guy I knew brought back some Cape buffalo biltong once It was good a very dear friend of mine used to live here in bluegrass country, and he is from south Africa. He provided me some biltong a handful of times. Delicious indeed. |

A little too much pickle juice in the brine but it's still pretty darn good. I think some pickle juice would still be great I just used a little too much.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By JLPettimoreIII: whiskers brah can you recommend a basic marinate recipe for those of us starting out? Kind of? Tell you what, I'll tell you what I started with. I did 1/2 cup Liquid Aminos and 1/2 cup Worcestershire. Then I eyeballed some black pepper, and garlic (I just tossed that shit in there) Then I added one pepper which I cut up. I used Habanero last time. I think minimum marinade should be like 6hrs. |

Recipes are for ideas only not exact sciences.
You need to have a few beers and just start tossing shit in there. I did one with Dijon mustard in the marinade that was pretty good |

If you weren’t such a NOVA homo you’d season and marinate with your own sauces and rubs made from peppers you grew. Hahaha.
I’m enjoying this thread. I worked on this over the weekend. Haven’t used my dehydrator for jerky yet. I should probably get on that.  Attached File Attached File |

Ok, you got me. We ran out to the local restaurant supply store and found pre-sliced eye of round. Marinated overnight in a concoction of soy and worcestershire sauce plus a random assortment of whatever seasonings sounded interesting. The first couple trays are at 4 hours so far.

I need a new dehydrator. Fuuuuuck. Used to make bacon jerky 10lbs at a time. The whole house smelled like bacon for a week. It was glorious. The fucking ex took it when she left and I didn’t realize it till she was long gone and I wanted to make more bacon jerky.
Now I’m going to have to take it out on the current girlfriend the soccer player with an ass you could almost fry bacon off of.  Recommendation for a new dehydrator? Arfcom drunk posting is best posting. |

Filled up my nesco dehydrator, turns out the lowest setting is 95, so I set it and will wait until tomorrow, it’s been about 3 hours and the aroma is satisfactory on the first floor. I had a little extra and it went on the smoker which will be done at a higher temp and won’t be the same, but that is only 20% of the batch. Will probably consume that tonight since I will pull that in another hour

And here I've been cranking out fruits and vegetables this whole time. Frankly, this thread has embarrassed me.
We grow our own beef and swine. We have 20 productive chickens. And I haven't been making jerky. This ends right fucking now. Wife is going away this weekend. The kids and I will crank out jerky. I think we will make lard too, while cleaning guns and watching a to-be-named movie(s).  Attached File |
