I just thawed out the backstraps on the doe I shot the other day. I am going to try the jerky thing out today. I am pumped! And Jeff, that pick made me so hungry I am going to cook some venison out on the grill this afternoon...ahh, life is good.
You ought to be shot for using backstrap to make jerky.

I make my own i use to dehydrate mine but i found it alot better to cold smoke it. Take a barrel or weld you up a little smoke box and put a pipe out the top going into a broken old small refrigirator and this will cold smoke it awesome meat.

I used preacher tony's and tweaked the hot sauce with my personal favorite....tweaked it a little in a couple other areas.Best jerky Ive made to date and it's 99% Preacher Tony's recipe. Good stuff and kudos to PT for sharing it with us.

P.S. I never used a whole piece of meat to slice while making mine. I just used trimmings and smaller muscles from the front legs for mine.

P.S.S. I also use a dehydrator. 4 hrs at 175* in my dehydrator with a fan....just forget it unless you have 4 trays slam full....then rotate trays from bottom to top every hour.

Elitist jerky maker...LOL. PT and others, I just wanted to use some real tender meat to get my kids hooked on deer jerky. First impressions you know. I just used one to try it out and the other is on the grill. Meat is meat baby!

PT's recipe is just dandy!

you can go to www.foodnetwork.com or google "jerky" for other tips and temps.

Bottom line is you don't want to cook the jerky before removing the moisture and that's why loooow temps are king to achieve this result.

Another tip is too half defrost the steak you have choosen to make jerky out of, it make's it easier to slice thinly.
