Pork jerky
-
Has any body ever made jerky out of hole mussel meat or ground pork I have a daughter-in-law that does not eat red meat so I would like to make some jerky for her
gus4416 I make lean ground pork jerky occasionally
You really have to use a binder and a lot of mixing for protein extraction
Pork has a lighter flavor than beef and IMHO goes better with seasonings you already associate with pork and add a slight sweetness
For example, It’s good with teriyaki sauce mixed in -
gus4416 Yes, and I use Shure Gel for the binder
I have never tried full muscle pork but see no reason it wouldn’t work -
gus4416 you can make jerky from whole lean muscle proteins. Pork, turkey, buffalo, etc…

Cabelas90 Thanks for that information, I’ve been wanting to make some jerky out of pork loin for a while now, Ill make sure I trim it up to remove all fat!

gus4416 You best check with her to see if she regards pork as red meat. If she does, go for it. If she doesn’t, go with turkey. Works just fine.

David Harkness oops, ‘don’t go for it’ if she regards pork as red meat.

Whole muscle pork jerky is what I make the most of, started doing it a few years ago when beef went way up in price!
