Made deer jerky for the first time tonight. I used a store-bought seasoning from Gander Mountain. I cut the strips pretty thin, but there were some thicker pieces (1/4" or so). I used the right amount of seasoning and cure, then dried/cooked them in the oven at 200 degrees for about 3 hours.
Now, most of the thin pieces are dried all the way through. The thicker pieces are still moist. Not quite juicy, but moist. When I tear it open, I can see the seasoning inside and it "looks" done.
The only other jerky I have to compare it to is store-bought flat strips that are super dry. Should I have kept these in the over longer? Will it go bad quicker than totally dry jerky?
