    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

              Ive made lots of whole muscle Pork Jerky and you have to make sure its 100% lean if going for shelf stability pork fat molds incredibly fast even in jerky.

                  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.

                      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!
