Important notes about slicing the meat.

You have probably heard about the "grain" of meat; and depending on how you cut in regards to the grain will affect the texture of your jerky. The simplest explanation is:

  • Slicing WITH the grain = Chewy / Tough Jerky
  • Slicing AGAINST the grain = Less Chewy / Soft Jerky

Yep, I did some of both. I like the chew myself!
 
So, has anyone ever used a jerky shooter?
if so ,how did work out?
 
Shooter? Do tell.

It's basically a gun that turns ground meat into jerky strips...

Yep, that's it.

I have access to venison burger. I'm thinkin I may try this on some and see how it works.

I have done whole muscle eye of round jerky for years until I decided to try twice-ground eye of round with my jerky cannon. Flavor is much better because you add seasoning before second grind. Texture is better than I expected and an easier chew. Never going back to whole muscle.

Man, now I need to re-think my jerky future. I feel that fresh ground meat with seasonings added would be great. The strips would be uniform, with a tender chew.

I may just return my just purchased slicer and get a grinder attachment for our Kitchen Aid, and a shooter instead.

Hmmm
