thats alot of jerky!!


It's not all going to jerky. Here's the current breakdown:

110 lbs sticks
70 lbs Octoberfest Sausage
70 lbs Medium Italian Sausage
100 lbs Roasts, Chops, Steaks, Backstraps
80 lbs ground

Adds up to more than 350 but it includes pork added to make the sticks and sausage. Not actually sure if I can thaw frozen venison and then use for jerky.

I will post up my recipe for jerky in a few days to share. It is like gold in our house. Even my wife takes some and hides her a stash before it is gobbled up. I found her stash by accident one time and confronted her. She looked like the deer in the head lights. It was funny.

Yes you can use frozen. That is actually the best was to slice it. Put it in the fridge frozen to thaw slowly. When it is still just barely frozen take it out and slice it while the meat is still hard. Slices much easier this way, and more consistent on your thickness.

Don't actually know but something my mother taught me. Than again I could easily be remembering it wrong as that was 30 years ago. Even if she did believe that, I guess it could be an old wives tale from the old country.
