re: Beef jerky

Look for backwoods jalapeño jerky marinade on amazon or any place that you buy supplies from. I personally use any cheap cut of meat that is on sale so long as it doesn't have a lot of marbling. Here is a scenario where you can safely buy meat at Walmart. You want the leanest meat you can find.

I personally prefer sheets of jerky so I look for the larger roasts that I can cut super thin sheets off of. Anytime I walk by the meat case and see three or four packs marked down, I buy them and make jerky with them.
