Hmm, jerky. Yeah, the cheap stuff is just candy with questionable beef in it, the good stuff is either expensive or home made... That might be the snacking goal to strive for, home made jerky so it can be good and good for me.
You can make large batches of beef jerky relatively easily, the trickiest part is getting your beef sliced thinly enough
yeah. you really have to buy a commercial kitchen grade slicer - and probably a dedicated dehydration rack unless you're fine with using your oven for days.
Days? It takes me just a couple of hours per batch. The oven is less energy efficient but MUCH faster than a food dehydrator.
