I saw some online cause my mouth is water but like always seems expensive.

that's why I make all my jerkey myself. Too damn expensive to buy. Plus I like to make it and experiment with the flavorings.

How easy is it to make? I'm assuming you kill the animal yourself but for me it'll be shop bought meat, still possible to jerky? I love Jerky but it's £2.00 for a tiny pack here!!

You can make jerkey with store bought meat. Hell, while your there have them slice it for you, just be sure to tell them your making jerkey with it so they slice it nice and thin.

Actually, I make jerkey with store bought meat all the time. Really simple actually..you can even use ground beef if you want. Just be sure to use like 93/7 or something close to it. You don't want too fat of beef/meat or it will be really greasy..also if its too lean it will be dry and crumbly.

If you going to make deer jerkey add in some 90/10 beef with it. 1 lb to every 5 lbs of venison.

I use a dehydrator to make my jerkey, but you can use an oven as well. other than that all you need is some cure and your spices which i usually buy in bulk online.

It's really easy to do....


Just be sure not to dehydrate it too long, other wise it will be too dry (and if your using ground beef, it will be "crumbly")

Also..if your using ground meat, get yourself a "jerky shooter" looks like a big caulking gun.
