Default Jerky in my converted freezer

With my cooker being a converted freezer I have the option to put the evaporator fans back in to help dry out the meat. Just put in on @ 10:30. Ill post some completed picks. Wish me luck. This is my first attempt.

What temp are you drying , it needs to be low about 135 if I remember correctly, fans are a good idea

I've smoked jerky at 150 degrees. you can even go upwards of 170 with no problems. Running a smoker with a real fire you'll have that sometimes.

Can't wait for the results

May i suggest hanging the jerky with toothpicks, you can get much more in there. And 160-70ish are good temps.

I started at 150 but changed it to 160 half way through. I did think about hanging them with skewers but I got lazy. Thanks for the pointer.

Very nice!! Looks like a good batch of jerky right there. I always make the temps hit 160, for safety purposes. Good option, having the fans in there.
