Beef jerky
I remember not long ago you could buy some really good shit and you didn't need to take a loan out for it. Now, the only products on the shelf is real bad and costs a fortune. I need a website for the good stuff. If I get 3 responses that are the same, I will buy it if it's available on line. No funny stuff by responding 3 x's either and no pics of my wife.

Make it yourself... beef, tuna, striper jerkey. Get a dehydrator and have at it! Better than most commercial products and a tenth the cost. I struggled with excess fish until I found jerky.

Just make it. I bought a 10 shelf unit for about 50 bucks. Made so much for a while we couldn't eat it all and I gave most of it away. It's fun actually and better tasting and healthier than what you buy in stores.

They're right. Get a $40 dehydrator from Walmart and make it yourself.
Otherwise, order online from Beef Jerky - Snow's
best in my opinion. No comparison to gas station crap.

Mac's meat market, right near Lodi, Ohio. Made fresh there, many many flavors to choose from. Thick pieces, not that garbage super thin "slab" stuff.

I like to take it off when you can see white fibers when you bend it in two.

I make more than 50 lbs of venison jerky every year. And every time I make a batch I realize why jerky is so expensive in the store. It's a lot of work!
