Soft Beef Jerky without Sugar
-
Joe Hell Yeah, the Glycerine is very good, I happened to find some of the original sugar batch and was able to try them side by side. The Sugar is MUCH sweeter than the glycerine, to the point that I prefer the glycerine vs the sugar. However, I think the sugar one was a touch more tender but this might have been the vacuum tumbling vs the vac sealing?

Joe Hell Not yet, but there will be, my last experiment with it went very well but I am trying to make it work with home equipment (no vacuum tumbler) so it is useful to home processors. In the next day or two we will be releasing a new video on making tender jerky with home equipment, so for anyone who has been following this thread, I would say that that video will be worth watching.

Jonathon I was gifted a small tumbler over the weekend and made a batch of the gigawatt and dill pickle. I ran both through the smoker until I reached 160 and for the first time I finished in the Weston Pro Series 80L dehydrator to outstanding results!

Joe Hell Gifted a Vac Tumbler? Do you have a direct line to Santa or something? Send us some pics of the tumbler and your finished product!
By the way, I am done with the project that I have been working on for weeks and will FINALLY have some time to organize a bunch of these great pics you guys have been submitting here and posting them to Walton’s and Meatgistics social media pages!

Jonathon I’ve been making a friend of my dad’s (Uncle Pat) Canadian Bacon lately in exchange for fresh Walleye. He happened to have an extra tumbler and when I offered to purchase he simply gave it to me. It only has a 5 lb capacity which suits me for now. Each rack in my masterbuilt holds the same amount of product so it works out well. I’m pretty excited about my new Weston dehydrator as well. I am starting my largest gardening endeavor this year with plans to dry much of the produce for later use in fresh sausages and other recipes.

If i just use my chamber vac will it work as well as a vacuum tumbler? Thoughts?? What if i sealed some jerky and marinade in a mason jar? So many questions, job keeps getting in the way…

Parksider Sadly, I dont think anything is going to work as well as a vacuum tumbler. The combination of the vacuum and the impact energy from the tumbling works better than really anything else to get your solution into the meat. Most commercial places use a combination of injecting and tumbling and after that, they go directly to the smoker or oven. It is certainly better than nothing though! We should be publishing a video tomorrow where I tested a few methods to see what could be done without a vacuum tumbler or injector.

Parksider I played around with the idea but in my mind the extra sugar in the mixture would make the injection difficult so I did not purse it any further, I might need to try it though! Also, I flipped https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7CkUDYgyGVM live today and here is the meatgistics post.
Joe Hell Free is usually the best price point!
