beef jerky is great
Camel jerky is good
but ROO jerky is the ultimate. theres no leaner, fat free meat in the world than a good slab o kangaroo.
prep is the same, and i use a regular gas oven.
equal amounts of soy sauce + oyster sauce (i use 3 tablespoon of each)
1/2 teaspoon sugar, dash of regular ground black pepper.
marinade thin strips of your favourite animal overnight. (kangaroo, yeah!)
get a regular flat oven tray and take small handfuls of meat, gently squeeze it between your hands to wring out excess marinade (or it makes the oven
messy)
lay strips on the flat baking tray so they are not too close to each other.
Put gas oven on as low as it'll go, i usually do it at about 80c.
*important* prop oven door open a little with a metal kitchen utensil and after about 2 hours turn the meat and let it dry in the warm oven for
another 2 hours.
remove from oven when your happy with the jerky. some like a "jack links" style soft jerky, others like a "Tree bark" style jerky.
