re: Why is beef jerky so expensive?

I make my own for camping trips. Great snacks on trails. If you think about the various costs associated with it ... it is damn expensive.
The biggest is the cost of the meat. Someone in the thread earlier said you get about a 40% yield. I think that is high. I get about 25% at best and beef isn't cheap. Factor in the seasoning, cost of fuel, time it adds up fast.
This thread is going to force me to figure out what my cost per pound is next time I make it.
