Look its me again. I pulled a eye of round out of the freezer and let it start thawing. Still frozen but not rock hard anymore I started diligently slicing at a 45 degree angle to the grain about 1/8" to 1/4" slices. Put 'em in a tupperware bowl adding some spices, cure, brown sugar, soy, and worcester sauce and let them marinate for a couple a days. While stirring 'em every time I was in the reefer till all the fluid was gone.
Into the dehydrator and finished in the smoker with apple wood.
Next batch is cooking now. This is the most mellow I have ever made. Its not salty, sweet, smoky, hot or spicy. Its not juicy or tender either LOL, but its pretty good jerky.
Its dry enough to not need refrigeration (don't have hate when you get some tender juicy jerky and you know it'll mold in in a week). Nut not to dry to be crunchy.
I've done that before too! LOL it kind of tuff to eat with store bought teeth...LOL
Seriously all it takes is beef muscle with no silverskin or fat cut at a 45 to the grain very thin. Throw on a bit of modifiers and marinate. Then dry and smoke.
Someday I am gonna try some of that fish candy all you guys make, I know its gotta be good too!
Thats it, Thanks for looking. I'll cryo-pac 'em tomorrow after they smooth overnite.
