Back strap. Marinaded 48 hours in Asian BBQ. Turned out sweet and tangy. Used my Excalibur dehydrator...right under the beer thirty bottle opener.

@BobDanger that looks great. I'm looking at getting into dehydrating (mostly for jerky).
How do you like the Excalibur? Others look nicer, but the Excalibur has consistently the best reviews, so I'm leaning that way. A lot of the other ones I've looked at fail to get up to their "advertised" temps.

Its lived outside but covered and still ticking...if I used it more I would probably get one of the cabellas...but no complaints...it works great.Eastern Shore Virginia

I make all my jerky on the Traeger. Got a batch going in the marinade tonight.
Yours looks great. I never used blackstrap for jerky. I always use the hind quarters.___________________________________

Thank you @lkapigian , I appreciate the info. When I started looking around, I landed on the exact unit you describe as my first pick. It's a beast of a unit, and looks good (unlike most others). You've alleviated my concerns over some of the heating my heating concerns, but I'm not sold I want to spent that much on a dehydrator.
I'm inclined to get a basic workhorse dehydrator - I'm saving pennies to follow your lead on grinder choice.

That's the best cut in the world to make jerky but I have a hard time doing it since I love it to grill or make deer poppers. That's the kings cut for sure.
