Re: Beef Jerky Time

Test batch #1 is turning out really good. It has mellowed out as far as smoke smell. When you take a bite you chew for a bit and you get the beef flavor off the bat, then you taste the salt, then you get a tang, but its not overpowering like it was day one. I need to rethink this.

Im thinking straight Hydrolyzed soy protein, maybe even add an extra 3% salt, add all the other ingredients in test batch #1 and smoke for no more then an hour. I think that might be the perfect balance.
How much MSG do you think i should add Papajawnz? A cup? That might not be enough, Maybe two cups per pound of beef will be enough to mutate my future children i dont want to have.
