Did some jerky yesterday with some older steak in the freezer.
Used the "River City Recipe".
Results were great.
Just wanted to know what kind of meat ya'all use for jerky?
In the past I've used venison since I butcher my own deer and this is a good way to go as well, but you must get all the white stuff out or it taints the flavor. This doesn't seem to be a factor with beef.[p]Thanks for any opinons/help.

    germanshorthair,
    I've done River City and Little Chief with top round and london broil. Both were on sale for $1.99 a lb at different times. Each time I marinated half of the meat in the RC and half in the LC overnight (about 12 hours) and smoked indirect at 170* following gfw's method. Each time it came out great, but went quick... I really want to do turkey jerkey next with the Hawaiian marinade. I just need some time to do it... LOL Joe
