How to Make Tender Jerky At Home
-
Hi everyone!
I have always tried using dehydrator instead of an oven! I thought cooking the meat will make the muscle harder instead of more tender, so I always go straight to dehydrator with 167F for 2 hours and 150F for extra 2 hours for 1/4" cut.
So if im using oven then dehydrator, will it make the jerky more tender? Will definitely try using glycerine as well. Do you have any principle in using glycerine? Like percentage of initial weight or dose of glycerine per pound of meat?
Thank you

Seanlee Hardy Yes, the times we used vegetable glycerin instead of sugar we used 18% glycerin to replace the sugar. We still added 20% of the weight of the product in water as well. I think you will be happy with oven to dehydrator but i would recommend a smaller batch to begin to make sure you do enjoy it!

Hi Jonathon! i tried to reply you several times during the weekends, sadly the websited couldnt post my reply.
We didnt try using oven since the the temperature control broke and there is no way we can control the temperature, so i went straight to dehydrator 2 hour 160F and 3 hour 150F.
Things were going good! I will post the picture and recipe later on.I did try using tenderloin for the meat as they give the most tender cuts, the only problem is finding the least fatty one but overall i am surprised by how tender the beef is and i havent used glycerine yet! I will start my glycerine this week as there will be long weekend for Good Friday and Easter. I will also post pictures of the result this weekend!
Cheerios!

JerkyIsMySalad A little more testing is necessary but then we will do it a full video on it so…lets say 2-3 weeks. This is high on my list of things to do.

And we’re done!
This is better tasting and tender’r (?) Than any jerky I’v made before. Vegetable glycerin is definitely the way to go. There is no residue or aftertaste that I can detect. I also did the 10 minute knead. All new to me, but will surely be used going forward.
Big thanks to Joe Hell, and the rest of you for teaching me so much.DougSmokes that look sooooo good!
