Good read and informative.

Seriously a lot of extra BS.

The bottom line is follow package directions to the letter. Curing meat with cure #1 is safe and effective when done correctly...
Sorry.  Just trying to be helpful.  That's how I got my information.

No reason to be sorry. And by no means am I an expert on the curing of meat.
But all I have learned, with food safety being first and foremost, You should never take chances with excess cure...

I was glad to hear that HK was not going to eat the jerky.

Yeah I tasted a tiny bit and could tell it wasn't right as no surprise.  I didn't think twice about pitching it. Lesson learned.

I'm doing about 8lbs on my Oster food dehydrator. I've done batches on my own before, they generally turn out good, but the best is when I mix preseasoned packages, that come with curing salt already in it. This isn't even half of what I have to do. My local Safeway has huge London broil on sale about every other week. I go buy some then trim it up, and make jerky.
