Oven beef jerky

Oven beef jerky is relatively easy to make if you are careful to keep the temperature as low as possible. The reason you need to keep the temperature low for oven beef jerky is that what you are trying to do is dry the meat not cook it. This is one of the reasons that making jerky in a microwave oven is much more difficult as they tend to cook the meat. Cooking meat until it dries out hard is not making jerky in an oven. The other thing you need to work on is getting a good jerky mix for your marinade.

Buy jerky

Should you buy jerky online? This is a question that many people ask themselves and they search many site to find an answer for themselves. I ask why would you buy jerky when it is so simple to make your own? I think that, for most people, the thought of making jerky is just too difficult or messy. They think that they will need an expensive dehydrator before they can even start but that isn't true. While it is true that a good dehydrator will help you make better jerky you can make oven beef jerky in your own oven at home.
