With the way ground beef is processed I would not even consider using Ground beef for jerky It just sounds like a great way of getting food poisoning.
I got a Nesco dehydrator and the instructions to make jerky with grond beef is nasty. Unless, I buy a london broil cut (the one I used to make my first jerky) and have the butcher to ground it.
@Jurkowski1987 It will and I can tell you it works well you can fool the best of the jerky eaters out there. Perfect texture,taste and color. Give it a go....
I have never done jerky with ground meat before, Could you just pick up a couple pounds of ground beef and use that? Or are you better off grinding up a round roast?
I have never done just with ground meat before, Could you just pick up a couple pounds of ground beef and use that? Or are you better off grinding up a round roast?
If you can figure a way to usa a calking gun your one up on me. I would stick with the Jerky gun it's food safe plastic and is not going to tase like liquid nails or window calk. Good luck.
Its a jerky gun / jerky press. Its made by the Nesco company. Go Goggle and im sure you will find somethingng. The press really works great and is easy to clean.
Yes the oven will work fine you just need some kind of mesh rack to make it work.
Most ovens start at 150 degrees F. Jerky should be dried at about 150 degrees F You may have to leave the door of your oven slightly to maintain the proper temp.
Cabelas sells a three tier rack and cookie sheet set for jerky in the oven. You can dry the jerky up to 200 degrees F. and it only takes 2-3 hours. Faster than a dehydrator. Cabelas has an online store if you don't have one close to you.
I tried a marinade (soy sauce , oil, honey, water,spices) before putting my ground up flank steak in my Jerky gun. It came out looking like something my cat would leave in her cat-box. I will stay away from the marinade next time. My beef strips are stuck like glue to my dehydrator screens . Should I spray the screen first with Pam? Strips seemed kind of thick comming out of the gun also. Thanks for the great video.
Ok I know what you did wrong. You must never use oil. It will ruin your jerky. It will affect the drying process in a very negitive way as the meat will never dry. Try using the dry jerky mix from Walmart and allways remember to use very lean meats with virtually no fat. I have never had a bad batch ever. Try again follow the jerky mix directions and you will have the best jerky on earth I promis.
Thanks , my next batch was perfect. I used a marinade with a 4 lb. eye of round roast (($ 4.49 /lb.) cut to 1/4 inch thick. I then tried some ground up extra lean beef ($4.99 /lb.) and used the spices without the marinade and it came out great.
Hi there, nice video...just wondering if its ok to use hamburger grounded meat?? Because I noticed that they have fat in it, so just wondering if that is what you used. Thanks
Its good stuff...You should be able to find a dehydrator in the UK pretty easy I would think. Its worth looking into especially if your in the UK. I was there and didnt see any jerky at Tesco. Get started your mates will love you for this one.
It's even easier if you have a kitchenaid stand mixer that you can use attachments with. I have the meat grinder attachment, so I grind the meat myself. Then I use the mixer to blend in the spices and salt. Take the end for making strips that comes with the Jerky shooter and put it on the end of the meat grinder behind the large lock nut. Put the blended meat back through the meat grinder and the strips come out the other end. A little pressure with the wooden pusher makes it come out faster.
Awsome tip thank you. Thats a very efficient way to make jerky. I like your way of thinking. I mostly make batches around 2 lbs finished. Havent needed the mixer yet maybe I need to? thanks for the tip.
Thanks, I just made 6 lbs of jerky. It took one hour. That's from raw meat to starting the dehydrator. I bought a 6 lb sirloin tip roast (on sale for $1.99/lb) and trimmed off all the fat that I could, ground it, mixed in the salt/spices (from American Harvest), and made the strips using the method I described. I'll never do it any other way if I can help it. One other benefit is that there is virtually no dripping grease from the meat during dehydrating since most of the fat is gone.
Can you make another video of what you do with it at the end? i want to see what it looks like using this type of meat:) ive been thinking of buying a machine and tool thing for my dad for fathers day :)
I did make a revised video but was not happy with its video quality. Go ahead and buy the equipment Dad will love it if hes handy in the kitchen and loves beef jerky. The finish product is store quality.
You should have rolled out that ground beef like a roll of cookie dough the length of that tube and slide the meat in. Would have been faster. Would like to have been there to try some of that.
This ground meat is very fast on the start to finish. No marinating overnight or slicing involved you litterally set it and forget it. I like cutting strips now and again the meat cures a bit to black for me. This burger jerky is laughy taffy when it comes to being fun and easy for any skill level. Have fun make jerky.
brings out the caveman in me i want more more more people start to chant. my poor little machine can only crank out so much. What would they call me if this were to become my full time job... A jerky?
I like in the UK but I've lived in PA for a while and LOVE jerky so much that my time there allowed me to sample! Jerky is available in the UK but it is extortionately priced and I have yet to see a dehydrator so I'm looking to either make one or try to source one from the US (Oven would work but I want a dedicated machine as I love it so much)
I agree with you totally that jerky is a fantastic snack with a beer or just to munch on to curb the hunger pangs
Its easy and it works well...Its cost effective to have the equipment around. I used to make beer and that was a project...This is Homer Simpson easy.. All go no do`h.
Same here i bought my stuff last night to make it and already have 21 pounds drying!!!if you go to bass pro they have the jerky gun on sale for 18.99 and the jerky cannon for45.99 and it comes with seasoning and stuff!!
This is ground meet its better dried on high for four hours.I put a lot of meat on my drying racks it works out fine. Trick is not to cook the meat just dry it out. Shifting the racks is very important near the two hour time mark.
wtf its mixered meat into guu and then he usses gun to flatten it out like that?? i thought beef jerkey is cut pieces of meat that dry not mashed meat formed into strips????
It `s high quality beef much like you would select in the sliced form. The texture is just like real jerky maybe better. You don't have to deal with all the waste gristle and tendon matter. This may not appeal to you but I will tell you that I need to lock it up at work to keep people from borrowing it.. They know its awesome there my test subjects. Thanks for the comment
Much easier to just buy the thing unless you got some spare bits hanging about in the garage. might not be recommended or even a good idea. Good luck.
This recipe is ok.. I tried it a couple years ago when I bought my Nesco. But you are really better off with a Rump Roast, or even better, a Sirlion tip Roast. Your local butcher can often slice if for you, making it a much easier job. I can give you some recipes that are tried and true, as well as the web has a bunch.
that should work the jerky gun/press should give you the edge. 4 hours drying time on high 150 degrees. shift the trays around during dry time this helps if your using extra full racks as well as added racks as you have mentioned. It works a treat every time. Use good beef keep me posted.
nice video, explains alot but for some reason my jerky comes out like sausage. taste likes it, feels like it, looks like it. I used flank steak then i used chuck steak. Both came out sausagy. Whats up with that?
Sounds like a drying issue or your pieces are cut to thick. I use the ground beef and the jerky press. This produces a consistent thickness that makes dry time a simple task. for thicker pieces of meat a smoker would be a much better option. If you chose to use the dryer use simple 2 day marinades with smoke flavor and cut your pieces around 1/8 inch thick let them soak in a zip lock bag. You should be good to go.
the pieces are same size as yours and i use a jerky gun, not sure if thats the same thing as a jerky press. I refuse to spent more money on this. bought the dehydrator +2 trays, jerky gun, a ton of seasoning and cure and who knows what else. I dont want to cut my pieces but rather stick with the jerky gun and hopefully figure that out. Thanks for the fast reply but i dont think i will ever figure this one out.
I use the Nesco jerky season it works well. You can use almost any jerky season to the proper ratio and you will have great results. Its a breeze give it a go.
LOl here i am thinking you had to buy a stupid flank steak to make this stuff and cut it yourself, I didn't know you could use ground hamburger meat, ever cool. BTW i have the same dyhydrator as you.
pass on the flank its giving you the yank..Sharp knives 2 day marinades there taking up all your valuable time. Just toss a few things together here and your off. Its good stuff you can fool the best of them out there. I got 2 extra racks to hold more beef about 2 pounds wet. It will be a big hit go for it my friend.
Its very lean ground beef mixed with powder seasonings for jerky making. Homer Simpson could make this stuff. The jerky taste store bought quality. Thanks for the comment.
Jerky needs a certain salt content to cure properly. I would eat less if I were you. Stick with the proper curing procedure to be safe. If you want to reduce your salt intake then cure fruits and veggis they dont need salt to cure and there very healthy as well as salt free.
No this is not Paula`s kitchen you by no means "fry" the hamburger this will truly put the "screws" to your jerky project. Google food dehydrators and you should find supplies like jerky mix for ground beef. Good luck go for it don't look back. Thank you for your comment.
Its shelf life is good when left in the fridge about 30 days or so It can be frozen as well and then it will last a year at least. Most of the time you will need to hide the jerky to make it last a day or so. I recommend a wall safe if available. The rest is history. Thank you for your comment.
Nice! Do you only eat it the one way? you can't treat it like bacon or anything?
It's pretty hard to come by in the UK, but the only time i've come across it, it was called something like Rawhide jerky and was incredibly stringy which put me off, hence why I was looking how to make it myself!
Also is it true that when it was made in the days of the wild west, cowboys used to dry it out by placing it under their saddles?
The jerky is a snack food unlike bacon this is a dried food product that requires no cooking after it`s made. It is a bit like chewy leathery bits of meat. Make sure you can buy the proper cure to process with.. As far as beef jerky made under a saddle how good could that have been?
damn, i always wanted to know what beef jerky tastes, they dont sell it in norway where i live i think they sell fucking forikål, past forikål on google and find out why i am unhappy.. GODDAMN IT, i cant relax
Best way i can describe the texture of the jerky is a leather like stiff to flexible feel and a salty peppery flavor. It good should be able to make it at home using many different drying and or smoking methods. Thank you for your comment. Still not sure what forikål is.
Yeah man ground beef does make for good jerky its simple not much prep and you don`t need an expensive smoker or a lot of special equipment to produce a damn good finish product. Thank you for your comment.
wdf!!this is not a beef jerky everything went wrong.i only knew beef jerky is a thin slice not grounded.hehehehe .i guess you are making a hambuger patties strip .hehehehe .lol .but its fun to watch thou.
Im with gwapsgyud this is NOT beef jerky.... i make been jerky n its a new idea i guess but this would b a lazy way to do it and i doubt it tasts like real jerky.... anyway good vid tho if ppl wanted to do this
Um...yeah...it is beef jerky. It's made from beef. DH and I make it this very way, but spiral it on the trays to fit more. People are always begging us to make more. They freak when we tell them it's ground beef. Nothing lazy about this method. Just different than what you are used to using. It tastes very much like "regular" jerky. Most don't know the difference unless we tell them.
I`am Gumby dam it....This was a "rough" video that everything turned out wrong. The jerky is quite good simple mix of very lean "fresh" ground beef and spice. It is a simple method to make a very simple product.Its jerky for dummies 101. might not be the same as that jaw braking chewy crap some people like.. Its good I like it. Next vid will be better no doubt. Thank You
Just starting out learning to make Biltong or Beff Jerky, and I want to thank you for your idea on how to make another variety - just goes to show that there are no limits to creativity!
"Jaw-breaking", tho is a bit strong a condemnation, wouldn't you say?! I have good teeth and good jaw muscles and enjoy satisfying my primeval desires to tear strips of meat off something or some-one ...
Not to be a dick, but there was so much repeated material you said in there that some of it was a waste of time. i would of liked to see the strips up close before and after cooking.
Also, i have to say this does -not- look very good. im from a small town so theres alot of farmers that make their own jerky, even one that ships to fishing/hunting resorts and the like. So i don't know if your doing this because of the lack of availability or maybe this is high quality, who knows. we don't.
That was really god how you made the jerky, Beef Jerky and some cold beers make a good combo, I'll have to try make it that way myself it looks really good, thank you for making this video,
Thank you for your comment...You are right this was a rough take and the first part of the video got cut out as well as my head. The seasonings are available at walmart in the small appliance isle with the dehydrators. Next vid will be better I promise.
Your right barbershop It was six scoops..I should have been more accurate. How ever the jerky was a treat for the taste buds. The people at my work loved so much they followed me all day as If I were the Pied Piper. It may not be the best jerky but it`s sure easy to make.
1lb of jerky for $4 for the beef and $3 for the seasoning is an excellent deal! Great vid btw. Do you use cure in yours?

How do you make sure that there are no bacterial growth in the process of the making jerky? Does the drying process kill all the germs?

This recipe is ok.. I tried it a couple years ago when I bought my Nesco. But you are really better off with a Rump Roast, or even better, a Sirlion tip Roast. Your local butcher can often slice if for you, making it a much easier job. I can give you some recipes that are tried and true, as well as the web has a bunch.

that should work the jerky gun/press should give you the edge. 4 hours drying time on high 150 degrees. shift the trays around during dry time this helps if your using extra full racks as well as added racks as you have mentioned. It works a treat every time. Use good beef keep me posted.
usa2cc272 3 years ago
nice video, explains alot but for some reason my jerky comes out like sausage. taste likes it, feels like it, looks like it. I used flank steak then i used chuck steak. Both came out sausagy. Whats up with that?
squishfaceofsaryrn 3 years ago
Sounds like a drying issue or your pieces are cut to thick. I use the ground beef and the jerky press. This produces a consistent thickness that makes dry time a simple task. for thicker pieces of meat a smoker would be a much better option. If you chose to use the dryer use simple 2 day marinades with smoke flavor and cut your pieces around 1/8 inch thick let them soak in a zip lock bag. You should be good to go.
usa2cc272 3 years ago
the pieces are same size as yours and i use a jerky gun, not sure if thats the same thing as a jerky press. I refuse to spent more money on this. bought the dehydrator +2 trays, jerky gun, a ton of seasoning and cure and who knows what else. I dont want to cut my pieces but rather stick with the jerky gun and hopefully figure that out. Thanks for the fast reply but i dont think i will ever figure this one out.

what seasonings/spices do you use?
fivecougarsoz 3 years ago
I use the Nesco jerky season it works well. You can use almost any jerky season to the proper ratio and you will have great results. Its a breeze give it a go.
usa2cc272 3 years ago
hey I just got one of these im using a roast can you just use ground beef ?
rhaines751 3 years ago
Yes you can use very lean ground beef and jerky seasonings to make a very good easy jerky.
usa2cc272 3 years ago
LOl here i am thinking you had to buy a stupid flank steak to make this stuff and cut it yourself, I didn't know you could use ground hamburger meat, ever cool. BTW i have the same dyhydrator as you.
mistadiscovery 3 years ago
pass on the flank its giving you the yank..Sharp knives 2 day marinades there taking up all your valuable time. Just toss a few things together here and your off. Its good stuff you can fool the best of them out there. I got 2 extra racks to hold more beef about 2 pounds wet. It will be a big hit go for it my friend.

Its very lean ground beef mixed with powder seasonings for jerky making. Homer Simpson could make this stuff. The jerky taste store bought quality. Thanks for the comment.
usa2cc272 3 years ago
Nesco food dehydrator 1 pound of very lean ground beef,A jerky gun and some jerky seasonings. 4 hours drying time on high.
Hope this helps you
Thank you
usa2cc272 3 years ago
Can I use a seasoning similar to what I would rub on my ribs. I am trying to cut down on salt and the Nesco seasonings probably have a lot of salt.
SirDouglas007 2 years ago
Jerky needs a certain salt content to cure properly. I would eat less if I were you. Stick with the proper curing procedure to be safe. If you want to reduce your salt intake then cure fruits and veggis they dont need salt to cure and there very healthy as well as salt free.
usa2cc272 2 years ago
You deserve the best now go and make some jerky
Thanks for the comment

u fry the hamburger before right?
chrissept21 3 years ago
No this is not Paula`s kitchen you by no means "fry" the hamburger this will truly put the "screws" to your jerky project. Google food dehydrators and you should find supplies like jerky mix for ground beef. Good luck go for it don't look back. Thank you for your comment.

Out of curiosity, how long does the Jerky last for if you cook them this way?
ScrewAttackEurope 3 years ago
Its shelf life is good when left in the fridge about 30 days or so It can be frozen as well and then it will last a year at least. Most of the time you will need to hide the jerky to make it last a day or so. I recommend a wall safe if available. The rest is history. Thank you for your comment.
usa2cc272 3 years ago
Nice! Do you only eat it the one way? you can't treat it like bacon or anything?
It's pretty hard to come by in the UK, but the only time i've come across it, it was called something like Rawhide jerky and was incredibly stringy which put me off, hence why I was looking how to make it myself!
Also is it true that when it was made in the days of the wild west, cowboys used to dry it out by placing it under their saddles?
ScrewAttackEurope 3 years ago
The jerky is a snack food unlike bacon this is a dried food product that requires no cooking after it`s made. It is a bit like chewy leathery bits of meat. Make sure you can buy the proper cure to process with.. As far as beef jerky made under a saddle how good could that have been?
Best regards and good luck its fun and easy.
usa2cc272 3 years ago
damn, i always wanted to know what beef jerky tastes, they dont sell it in norway where i live i think they sell fucking forikål, past forikål on google and find out why i am unhappy.. GODDAMN IT, i cant relax
sentimoko 3 years ago
Best way i can describe the texture of the jerky is a leather like stiff to flexible feel and a salty peppery flavor. It good should be able to make it at home using many different drying and or smoking methods. Thank you for your comment. Still not sure what forikål is.
Cheers

Ground beef when seasoned right makes damn good jerky and like the man says it won't sprain your jaw. The fat will drip though.

Yeah man ground beef does make for good jerky its simple not much prep and you don`t need an expensive smoker or a lot of special equipment to produce a damn good finish product. Thank you for your comment.

gwapsgyud 3 years ago
Um...yeah...it is beef jerky. It's made from beef. DH and I make it this very way, but spiral it on the trays to fit more. People are always begging us to make more. They freak when we tell them it's ground beef. Nothing lazy about this method. Just different than what you are used to using. It tastes very much like "regular" jerky. Most don't know the difference unless we tell them.
amlaboy 3 years ago
I`am Gumby dam it....This was a "rough" video that everything turned out wrong. The jerky is quite good simple mix of very lean "fresh" ground beef and spice. It is a simple method to make a very simple product.Its jerky for dummies 101. might not be the same as that jaw braking chewy crap some people like.. Its good I like it. Next vid will be better no doubt. Thank You
usa2cc272 3 years ago
Just starting out learning to make Biltong or Beff Jerky, and I want to thank you for your idea on how to make another variety - just goes to show that there are no limits to creativity!
"Jaw-breaking", tho is a bit strong a condemnation, wouldn't you say?! I have good teeth and good jaw muscles and enjoy satisfying my primeval desires to tear strips of meat off something or some-one ...

Not to be a dick, but there was so much repeated material you said in there that some of it was a waste of time. i would of liked to see the strips up close before and after cooking.
Also, i have to say this does -not- look very good. im from a small town so theres alot of farmers that make their own jerky, even one that ships to fishing/hunting resorts and the like. So i don't know if your doing this because of the lack of availability or maybe this is high quality, who knows. we don't.

Your right barbershop It was six scoops..I should have been more accurate. How ever the jerky was a treat for the taste buds. The people at my work loved so much they followed me all day as If I were the Pied Piper. It may not be the best jerky but it`s sure easy to make.
