Default RE: 100# doe on the hoof

I like using the oven best, though I have used my smoker. My wife got me one of those 3 tray oven jerky sets from Cabelas as a Xmas gift last year and it works slick. I forget how much I can get on there but you can get a lot on them and even buy extra ones to stack as high as your oven allows. I marinate the meat overnight and then pat dry and slide into the oven on the trays from breakfast to dinner, or around 10-12 hours. I leave the oven on at 170 and the door propped open ever so slighty with a wad of aluminum foil for good airflow. Your house will smell like a smokehouse but thankfully my wife likes the smell. In fact, she eats more of the jerky than I do probably since its a fairly health snack.
