Deer jerky in the oven

That’s what the article Smart just posted mentioned. Fat is the arch enemy of jerky.

This is pretty much the opposite of what I do. If jerky is stored in an airtight container I would open it frequently. Storing airtight and consuming within a week of opening seems silly

Keep in mind, cracking the oven (even at low temps) for 4 or 5 hours is going to have the house cooking this time of year. 5 or 6 briquettes an hour would keep my smoker around 150 this time of year

Hell just roll the pit into full sun during the day this past week and you could cook an entire brisket lol.

Good for you. Everybody has their ways and their quirks. Things can be done in different ways and still be right. I just gave the link to him for the general basics and a guideline for a place to start.

Most folks I know including myself like I said above and in my link make in larger quantities and package in a freezer in small quantities. Then grab from the freezer in small quantities… like a quart ziploc or gallon ziploc and consume within a week of opening (mostly less than a week). With the wife and I grabbing at it, a bag rarely last over a week.. Silly as you might think compared to whatever you choose to do, it works for us. It doesn’t last long enough to go bad in an opened frequently ziploc and **** is it good. When I make it, honestly it doesn’t last long enough around here to go bad. Fortunately we don’t have to store like the Indians did.

Pat Wilson said it best.

I seal pack (food saver) small portions and freeze it. Around my house it doesn’t last long enough to find out how long it will actually last....lol

Jason I’ll probably get the square one as well. Just gotta sell the Jack La Lane juicer to make room!
