allow the links to rest on the bottom of the Cabinet or on top of the Diffuser.
GROUND MEATS: Whenever making jerky from ground meats, you
can use a jerky gun or such tool to create perfect strips of jerky as well
as snack sticks.
BEEF: Choose Flank, Round or Sirloin Tip cuts, as they are the best beef
cuts for making jerky.
WILD GAME: Venison makes excellent jerky because it does not contain
marbleized fat. Flank or Round Cuts work best. Bear and Elk meat also
make very good jerky.
POULTRY: Whether making chicken or turkey jerky, it is important that
the meat be cooked heated to an internal temperature of 165 F (74 C)

FISH: Drying fish into jerky requires a lot of attention. It must be cleaned

is washed away. Steam or bake the fish at 200 F (93 C) until flaky before

dehydrating.
