Took some ground beef, but ground deer would work great. Seasoned it with salt sugar pepper garlic powder and curing salt. Let it sit on the counter for three hours to cure. You could use one of the jerky mixes from Academy. Rolled it out thin between plastic wrap. But it in a warm oven for three hours and cut it up and done.

Dam, I've been wanting to learn how to make jerky. Had no idea it could be made from ground meat.

My oven is electric, so right at warm for three hours with wooden spoon to keep oven door open. If you want it hard, go longer.

sodium nitrite also known as pink salt. it is used in the curing of meats. It slows the growth of bacteria in smoked and cured meats. You really don't need it to dry meat.

The best I've ever eaten was deer. I was thinking of a smoker but the oven sounds much easier- probably healthier without the smoke too, right? I wonder how the taste compares though.

If you want, you could add a few drops of liquid smoke. A lot of the store bought sausage of today will more often than not be artificially smoked.

Made with creosote. You really want to eat something made with a known carcinogen?
