I dont have a clue if its good for you or no, but I could eat 50 pounds of it in 30 minutes I think. I just love that stuff. Too bad it's so expensive.

make homemade jerky... cheap, all you need is a humidifier for like $30, get your meat, marinade and let it sit for a day
but its not bad for a snack...mostly protein, low sugar (many of them), you could eat some daily
its pretty much the only quicky mart food that has protein unlike everything else thats straight up carbs

It is a good source of protein, but there is a ton of salt in most store-bought varieties. You'll have to check the content of the kind that you bought, but I've seen some that have near 800 mgs of soduim per oz., so watch out.

That would be weird eating beef jerky and not have to drink bottles and bottles of water after.

I'd just watch out for the MSG in the Beef Jerky.

That is why a dehydrator is a great thing, make your own. Takes some prep work but worth it.

high sodium = what?
i noticed i wanted to drink alot afterwards
but its so goood guys, i can eat 100grams easy a day!! it costs me about $8-9AU per 100g
I think thats fairly cheap for this quality.
let me find out what else he emailed me.
OK I GOT IT GUYS.
Let me know if this is bad or not.
Sodium content concerns ? That you'll have to decide yourself, salt plays a major part in the curing process, last lab test was 970mg. per 100gms. although we quote higher on nutrition panel to be safe, again because all processing is done by hand.
IS THIS BAD OR OK?
mmmm thank you!

I tried posting for recipes on the Outdoor thread, no luck so far.Originally Posted by AF Pumped
I went too ask Jeeves and did a search on jerky..voula lots of different recipes for beef and wild game, I have about 2 pounds of deer and elk marinating now ready to go into the dehydrator in about 12 hrs.
I didn't add much salt, I did a barbeque marinade.

I just soak it in a marinade for awhile and put it in the dehydrator, you can also make it in the oven just make sure your oven can go down to about 100 degrees.
Yesterday is gone. Tomorrow has not yet come. We have only today. Let us begin.

With the high sodium, if you don't have high blood pressure, just drink tons of water to stay hydradted.

Be careful with the turkey. You would most likely need to use a cure for it. In a dehydrator the temperature doesn't get high enough to kill off the disease that could come with it. Just a heads upOriginally Posted by 2bbig
