Hi Folks,
I just bought a jerky gun, tried my first batch and it was way too salty. I bought the sodium nitrite/nitrate cure (prague powder) and will try that with decreased NaCl for my next batch.
Do any of you have a jerky recipe the you are pleased with for the jerky guns?? I've had great success with RAF's hawian hawain eerrr pineapple type recipe for whole muscle jerky but would like a good recipe for ground style jerky.
Thanks,
Ken

I buy a jerky seasoning at out local gun shop. I believe it Hi Mountain. They make serveral kinds. I prefer the pepper blend. They include instructions for both whole meat and ground meat. I'm sure it will be available your way. They're out of Montana I believe. I'll take a look tomorrow and add to this if I'm wrong.

I checked and Hi Mountain is in Wyoming, not Montana, if that helps. It is good stuff.

Thanks, Ken

I just made some jerky this past weekend. I started out with 26 lbs of trim meat and ended up with 21 lbs after trimming off fat etc. I used the Hi Mountain pepper cure. It took 2 days in the dehydrator to dry it all and like usuall it turned out great.

Thanks RAF
Sorry I've been busy and haven't checked the site lately. Taking the savage out tomorrow, I'm going to try a couple of different powders and I've always shot 250gr bullets, I'm going to see what I can do with 300gr.
Thanks again for the recipe!!!
Ken
