I want to do something different with jerky this year. I shot a mature doe yesterday just for this purpose.

Historically, I've used different marinades and a dehydrator. I know some of you use electric smokers. I'm not opposed to buying one, I just need some info.

So....tell me how you do it. Smoker types, cook times, recipes, slicing thickness, etc. Take me to jerky school....


I enjoy handguns and I really like shotguns,...but I love rifles!
