Beef Jerky Making

I bought my dehydrator years ago. It looks like the one below, it only cost me about $60.00. Now I don't really know what they cost or where to get them. Update: I just found one that looks like mine for $60.00 on sale at http://www.popeilfamilystore.com/fd-50t.html



It has easily paid for itself, especially with the amount of beef jerky it has made. Which must have saved me at least $500.

Now I am making dried ground beef to take trekking -- it works great -- my last experiment was to see how long it would last after drying in a ziplock bag without making me sick when I ate it. Lasted two months and then I had eaten all the test beef.

Once dried you can put turkey, chicken, beef, or anything else in a baggy with water and let it soak while you walk.

One can understand Cool Passion ("The Drink of the Aztec Gods"), Kosher Cajun New York Deli, Hot & Joy steak sauce, Rip 'n Ready chili, and the World's First Latke Snack at a food show devoted to Kosher, Latino and Asian food.

Who's to argue? Jerky of the Jews was one of scores of products on display at a trio of food shows held last week at the Jacob K.
