Title: Jerky
Post by: MoHuka on May 17, 2013, 10:52:35 AM

I did 10-pounds of Venison using Lem's Cracked Pepper on 5-pounds and Lem's Hot on the other 5.  I wanted to un in the Bradley for an hour at 120, then roll smoke at 135 for 3 hours then up to 160 to finish but without a cold smoke adapter my temps were 160 to start.  After the first hour I put on 3-hours of hickory and was checking every hour or so when I received a call from a dear friend from Venezuela who was in town and wanted to meet for a scotch..so moved all the meat to the dehydrator and tried to set up a lamp timer to give it 2 more hours...well when I got home 4 hours later it was still running.  It actually did not turn out too bad, a little drier that I would like but still bends and not break.  The taste is good but I will add some heat to the hot next time and more pepper to the cracked pepper.  Also, ordered a cold smoke adapter this morning....
In the smoker

I like the pans under the Bradley feet to catch the black condensate.

Don't think they will make it to CA.  Shipping go through Washington and they might get lost or hung up in customs (my house).
