Duke, that is some good looking jerky. We love jerky, but I haven't attempted to make it in a smoker yet. I have a few questions for you.
Is the cure necessary to make jerky? Do you use that because it is sitting in the fridge for 2 days in the marinade?
What temp do you have the smoker at when you make jerky?
How long do you keep it in the smoker, and how do you know when it is done?
I tried making jerky in the stove a long time ago, but it didn't turn out quite the way I wanted in taste or texture, and I would love to try another batch.
