HOW TO USE YOUR NEW DEHYDRATOR
DRYING JERKY:
Jerky is the first thing that comes to many peoples minds when it comes to dehydrating.
Making it yourselves can save you money and allow you to create your own recipes. Use any
lean meat you prefer such as beef, venison or fish.
Safety Information:
1. Sanitation and a clean working area are essential. Wash hand thoroughly with warm
soapy water prior to making jerky.
2. Meat should be frozen or refrigerated up until it's ready to be used.
3. Do not allow raw meat to come in contact with the finished product.
4. Use a sanitizing solution or diluted bleach to clean all surfaces when done.
5. If marinating meat for whole meat jerky, always marinade in the refrigerator.
6. We recommend that you purchase a pre-packaged jerky spice and cure kit. Follow the
instruction for proper seasoning and curing.
Preparing Natural Jerky
Natural jerky is sliced from bigger pieces of meat. Make sure meat is in freezer until it is
slightly hard to the touch but NOT frozen. This will help it slice more evenly. For best results
slice meat ¼" thick.
While there are many recipes for making your own jerky, we recommend using a pre-
packaged jerky spice and cure kit. Follow the directions provided with the kit. Place the meat
on the drying racks making sure that they are not touching over overlapping. Jerky typically
takes 4-8 hours to dry properly. When done drying, remove jerky from the trays and let cool
for at least 30 minutes. Then, use paper towels to remove any excess oil and fat that may be
on the jerky. Then, store in a covered or sealed container in a cool, dry place away from direct
light. If you would like to store your jerky for more than 1 month it is recommended that you
store in a refrigerator or freezer.
Preparing Quick Jerky
Quick jerky is made from ground meat. Use pre-packaged jerky spice and cure kit prior to
drying and use their instructions. Once the mix is ready, place meat into jerky gun and carefully
extrude the formed jerky strips making sure that the meat is not touching or overlapping. Jerky
typically takes 4-8 hours to dry properly. When the jerky is removed from the trays pat any
excess oil or fat from the meat. Then allow to cool for 30 minutes. Then, store in a covered or
sealed container in a cool, dry place away from direct light. If you would like to store your jerky
for more than 1 month it is recommended that you store in a refrigerator or freezer.
