I have to make room in the freezer for a pig we just sent to butcher so I'm turning this extra 200lbs of meat into jerky.

I only have seasoning for 60lbs so that's what I'll be doing today. :grin:

I grind all the meat and mix in the seasoning.

When talking about men, mancaves, manliness, etc I'm just going to start grading on a scale of 1 to 420God. :-P

What kind of meat are you using? I assume beef but what cut?

Nice dehydrator, they can be kinda pricey for such a simple design. The best jerky I've made was out of elk tenderloin, but I cut it a tad bit to thick..

I would really like to make some sort of smoke house, particularly for fish... Lol but I have to learn fish better first...

Yeah, this is from one we butchered ourselves. Mainly big chunks of leg meat, no real cuts.
