Are you just using an oven to dehydrate?
I have a dehydrator and a smoker, probably going to use both.
You're more equipped than I am I bet it'll come out great.
I got the dehydrator a while back, so far I've only used it to dry homegrown peppers. But I've seen many smoked jerky resipes, so I'm excited to do that.
My dad made jerky once--a ton of it. We were eating it all the time for like months lol. Good memories
My cousin was making it for a while, mostly out of venison. I think he jerkied a whole deer one time.
This is quite common and delicious as fk

Bresaola is an air-dried meat traditionally made from beef--​but we're using venison. This recipe is the perfect gateway into charcuterie:
It requires minimal ingredients, it's hard to screw up, and the end result is wildly delicious and surprisingly tender. Backstrap is the best cut to use here, but if you'd rather save that for steaks and roasts, fillets from the hindquarters work well, too. The recipe's cure gives the bresaola a peppery finish, so it's a natural fit in an arugula salad with fresh Parmesan. It's also terrific on sandwiches, or with an assortment of cheeses, preserves, and crackers. And it's not bad all on its own, either. --C.K. -

Might have to give that recipe a swing, my neighbors and I are big fans of charcuterie.
edit: I see that recipe is more like ham, which is amazing. The 2 things I mentioned are dried sausages.

Smoked meat, cheese, crackers and alcohol are among my favourite things. Making any of those yourself just increases the awesomeness.

It's much easier to buy some good cheese and toss it into a cold smoker. I got to do that a few weeks ago for thanksgiving... we put something like 14-15 different cheeses in for a couple of hours. The real standouts were blue/gorgonzola and an Irish cheddar.

Now I want to go catch a few fish and toss them in the smoker... It's still fishing season down here.

Velveeta doesn't need to be refrigerated, it's disgusting. My ex actually used to eat velveeta and peas. It made me gag.

The cold smoker we used was actually a converted water boiler (old school water heater). It was buried into an embankment for insulation. The fire box is about 4 feet in diameter and about 8 feet long/deep. A little welding attached the iron pipe for the smoke column. Add a small air pump and watch her go. Pics:

It's those insipid little cellophane-wrapped squares. Not actually cheese.
