For Christmas I got a Soga frozen meat slicer from eBay and a Todo dehydrator also from eBay.

Was sceptical as to whether the meat slicer would work so I was very pleased that it did

Image

The meat is sliced frozen and the learning experience from the first time is that the frozen meat shrinks when if defrosts. I will cut thicker slices next time.

I had a marinade recipe based on honey soy. But no soy sauce so I used teriyaki and fancy hanks barbecue sauce as the base with honey and two different hot sauces and a half a squeezed lime and some dried chilli.

After nearly three days in the fridge it was into the Todo dehydrator
Image

I did not get food poisoning from the regular attempts at checking if it was dry enough. I liked the taste Image.

I’ll take the finished product to the sausage session this arvo and let the sausage crew judge

With those stackable trays, do you have to rotate the trays to get a even dryness from top tray to the bottom tray

Or do you just leave them as they are?

Been looking casually at getting a dehydrator.

I did rotate the trays.

I bet you are thinking that there is potential for me to trevort my fingers

Yes, and then hoping that you realize its way out of your capability range and give it to me. :mrgreen:
