Home Made Jerky From Ground Raw?
I have no idea what my electricity costs were but I did get 5.7 oz of jerky from my $15.?? 1/2 pound of ground kangaroo. Store bought kangaroo jerky was probably not from ground but it was $12.99 plus tax for a measly 2.5 oz. So I consider this a success, but.......
I don't have a dedicated dehydrator. I did it in my oven on the dehydrating setting for the 6 hours recommended in most internet recipes I found. After 6 hours it was hard to get it off the very lightly oiled cookie sheet. I wonder if parchment paper would last the 6 hours? Because I have to be very careful of how much oil I use. Anybody used parchment paper for that long a time? Temperature setting was 140F.
