ChrisJones 7,973 Posted April 8, 2020 Report Share Posted April 8, 2020 Not made jerky for ages but buying a food dehydrator makes it really hard to get wrong. Also the cut of meat you use can make a huge difference too. You can experiment with cuts from the butcher until you get it the way you wanted. It's not necessarily the right way, or the only way, but it's another way. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think the main reason for using lean meat is so that it keeps. The venison I did was serious work on the jaw as you say. If you use meat that a bit fatty think it would be a good idea to eat it in a few days. Cheers Arry 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

To be fair some of them africaans got jaws like Arnie chewing dried steak whilst they chuck a digger bucket on by hand lol Beef Skirt cut with the grain of the meat is more chewy that if you slice it across the grain but both are manageable.
