[QUOTE="WTM, post: 4973702, member: 6230"] for quick jerky i have used the wildlife seasonings from rural king. the original flavor tastes like a slim jim. the nesco brand tastes about the same. [URL unfurl="true"]https://wildlifeseasoning.com/product-category/jerky-fixins/[/URL] as far as the nitrate comment on the above recipe, you dont use sodium nitrate for jerky or hot smoked meats. you use prague #1 (salt and sodium nitrite 6.25%. sodium nitrate is in prague #2 mixed with salt and sodium nitrite and used for low temp drying like pepperoni or salami, dry hams, etc. which are dried for months and the nitrate breaks down into nitrite for an extended release effect. the 2012 study pretty much put to rest the cancer link. besides if you eat spinach, eat smoked meat, celery, drink water or use kingsford charcoal then youve been eating nitrates/nitrites and didnt know it. its the nitrosamines that cause cancer not nitrites or nitrates themselves. its fine if you dont use a cure #1 in jerky, just avoid recipes without an acid component and use a good smoker or dehydrator and freeze for storage. avoid those round stackable Ronco types for safety sake.
