COOKING INSTRUCTIONS
OVEN METHOD JERKY
1. Place the jerky filled Drying Racks and Baking Sheet in a 175°F (79°C) pre-
heated oven for approximately 1 hour. Meat must reach an internal temperature
of 160°F (71°C).
2. Remove the Drying Racks from the oven and turn the strips over.
3. Return the Drying Racks to the oven and bake for an additional 30 minutes.
Check for desired dryness. If the jerky is not dry enough, replace the Drying
Racks of jerky into the oven and bake at 30 minute intervals, turning the jerky
each time, until the desired dryness is achieved.
4. Allow the jerky to cool, then follow “Storage Instructions,” as outlined in this
manual.
OVEN METHOD SNACK STICKS
1. Place the snack stick filled Drying Racks and Baking Sheet in a 150°F (66°C)
pre-heated oven for approximately 2 hours.
2. Then increase the oven temperature to 180-200°F (82-93°C) and bake until
the internal temperature of the snack sticks reaches 156°F (69°C).
3. Remove the snack sticks from the oven and shower with cold water until the
internal temperature drops to 100°F (38°C). NOTE: If you desire a dryer, more
wrinkled look to your snack sticks, do not shower.
4. Allow the snack sticks to cool, then follow “Storage of Jerky or Snack Sticks”
instructions, as outlined in this manual.
SMOKER OR DEHYDRATOR METHOD
If using a smoker or a dehydrator, follow the instructions included with that
appliance.
IMPORTANT: Before you place the meat in a dehydrator, it is highly
recommended to heat the meat to 160°F (71°C) BEFORE the dehydrating
process. This step assures that any bacteria present will be destroyed by
wet heat. After heating to 160°F (71°C), maintaining a constant dehydrator
temperature of 130-140°F (55-60°C) during the drying process is important
because:
1.) the process must be fast enough to dry food before it spoils; and
2.) it must remove enough water that microorganisms are unable to grow.
STORAGE OF JERKY OR SNACK STICKS
Wrap jerky/snack sticks in aluminum foil and store in a thick plastic food storage
bag, or place jerky/snack sticks in a jar with a tight lid. Avoid storage in plastic
containers or bags without wrapping in aluminum foil or wax paper first. Jerky/
snack sticks should be stored in a dark, dry, place between 50-60°F (10-16°C).
You can store properly dried jerky/snack sticks at room temperature for 1 to 2
months. To extend the shelf life to up to 6 months, store jerky/snack sticks in
the freezer. Be sure to label and date all packages.
