Last year I made some killer jerky from a cure and spice mix that Rich sent me...I had him make me up some more, because it is so easy to do and I wanted some for the pantry. Here is my second round of Jerky.
Bought some Angus Round...prices sure have gone up. I partially froze them too, and this time I am trying the across the grain cuts...more on that later.
Both were really lean with little waste and trimming.
got out my trusty MH Jerky cure and seasoning packet...I also added a sprinkle or two of some smitty's spice.
And added a little over a cup of some of Mrs. Engineer's current open wine.
Coated each piece and into a vac bag for about a day and a half...
Used Gunslinger's paperclip method and into the cabinet with a slow drizzle of cherry smoke.
Pulled after it got dark and finished in the oven...I may need to get a little bit more moisture out of a few pieces, but I called it for the night, I'll give it a sample again tomorrow and maybe a few more minutes in the oven.
I gotta say, I am still a sliced with the grain fan on jerky...but still a delicious treat. I think Mrs. Engineer may get a dehydrator on my christmas list, cause I'm gonna have orders for this stuff if I sample it around.
Thanks for taking a look at my post...Jerky!
