    G'day from Australia, Brian and Miss Shayla, I caught your Video with the Trekking Guy with that long white beard and started my first batch using that recipe plus a little Tasmanian Pepperberry Mustard. I'll be running that batch through my UDS tomorrow.
    I'm glad I decided to follow up on you today, this video is definitely one of the best videos I've seen to do with American Smoking, it's right up there with Aaron Franklin's Videos on BBQ. Great information, concise explanations and a great sense of humour, you two are obviously proud of what you have achieved and rightly so.

    A vacuum tumbler is a key to producing soft shelf-stable jerky. You can marinate your meat for three days and still not get anywhere near the pickup of the marinade solution. As he describes, the vacuum tumbler opens up the meat fibers and allows for the marinade to penetrate almost all of the meat. You don't need an expensive one. The one I have was around $150, and I do five-pound batches with it, but it will hold more. It was worth every penny. If you want to learn how to make good jerky, listen to this guy!

      @@ubroberts5541 The vacuum tumbler opens up the meat fibers so the marinade can penetrate every part of the meat. Meatgistics (TM) tested many different methods on one of their videos. They concluded the tumbler was the key to soft jerky as well. They also have a different temperature ramping cycle, but I've found @smokehousebayousmokedmeats temperature to be easier and produce just as good results, if not better. I'm not saying you're wrong, but I never had any success with producing soft jerky with thinner meat.

    This was a very good video to watch. I'm just new to the world of smoking. I got my smoker, grinder, casings, and curing salt. I'm just doing my first jerky tomorrow. It's marinating tonight. My diet is very strict with low to no sodium, so I wanted to find a recipe to make sausages and other smoked products that I can do that with. I grew my own celery and dehydrated it at 115, then I grind it to a powder. Through my research, I learned I could use this in smoking recipes as a cure. I'm just not sure how much yet. You mentioned celery powder... so I went and added 2 teaspoons to my jerky marinade. My marinade is done with organic soya sauce with super low sodium, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, red chili pepper flakes, and honey. It equaled about 1 cup for the marinade all together ... for my one pound of meat. I may have made my meat a little too thin... 1/4" about or less on some parts. So it's sitting overnight marinating now. Tomorrow morning I will put it in the smoker, little big chief, and smoke it for 2-4 hours... not sure just how long really. Then like you said, I think I'll put it in the oven after at 260 to be sure it kills any invisible bacteria for 5-10 minutes... just in case. I hope this works!! Next is sausage... any tips or insights for my special need would be so appreciated. I do have the salt cure, but I just don't know how much I should use per pound. I would like to not put any salt in my sausage, just celery powder and other seasonings, or at least reduced salt if it's really necessary. But if it's just about a salty balance for taste I would rather avoid it. Thanks so much!

      @@SmokehouseBayouSmokedMeats I did my first batch of jerky and it worked out really well just using the celery powder. I have a little big chief smoker, so I can't adjust the temperature. It was a bit cool outside in the morning so it took a while to build some heat. Finally, I just wrapped a heavy towel around it and clipped it to help insulate it. Just an improvising moment... which worked well. I used celery power that I had dehydrated from my harvest. I used no extra salt of any sort. It was actually really tasty and no one noticed there wasn't any salt in it. I used a super low sodium coconut soya sauce, Worcestershire sauce, honey and other spices along with the celery powder. There's a little bit of sodium in the liquids, which is enough for me, but not so much I'm in a battle. Anyways, I just wanted to share that with you. I have since made a super batch of teriyaki and regular spicy. Then I vacuum sealed it and put it in the freezer. Note: I did use a dehydrator to help dry the jerky before putting it in the smoke to help reduce cooking time and ensure it's cooked to temperature. Then I smoked it. Worked fine. The only thing is not to dry it out too much before smoking. When I can I'll be buying a smoker with more heat control and larger! I also made my sausage with the Prague curing salt #1 and a very low amount of sodium... and it worked fantastically! It's a whole new world of smoking for me that I'm looking forward to now!

Thank you both so much for a behind the scenes process for all the love and work that all goes in to each hand made small batch of jerky. One of my favorite channels on RUclips! I just have one question - is there a certain salt brand and style you can recommend... salt varies so much in size and weight. kosher salt brands and then regular table salt. Thank you very much.

      @@SmokehouseBayouSmokedMeats Good morning SBSM, Thank you so much for clarifying the use of iodized table salt. I'm not too familiar with the characteristics and weights of the iodized table salt as I've only used kosher salt in the past when seasoning bbq meats. My wife picked up an eye of round on sale that we were going to make in to thin sliced roast beef but, the last 2lb batch of jerky we made by seasoning with 5oz of Smokehouse Bayou’s BayouDust was gone in two days - we are ordering more Dust as it was wonderful!
      On the roughly 5lbs of eye of round we have to make some jerky... would about 3 ounces of the table salt get us in the ball park for the amount of salt to use without be too salty? thanks so much for taking the time to repond - it means a lot. Have a great day, everybody!

      BowMeHunter74 Fantastic! I’m glad you enjoyed your jerky!!
      In my marinade, I average about 1oz of salt to every 3lbs of meat. Obviously, I have other ingredients as well, but that is my salt to meat ratio. I hope you find this helpful! Thank you!

    Hope this helps...
    A marinade, under current language and slang terminology, can be a dry or wet combination of ingredients. Although, if it starts out dry, it's actually a rub. It's just use/ intent that starts it sliding into the grey areas of definition.
    "And there's the rub of it." lol
    The term marinade is French in origin, 1675-85 and originally meant to cure a meat in a brine.
    Now, often with a vinegar or wine base along with oils herbs and spices, it is meant to steep meats, fish and vegetables for a period of time before cooking (heated drying/smoking/dehydrating is a form of cooking).
    Happy trails 👣

    Good morning from MA. Have a five pound batch curing now, don't have a vacuum tumbler, so I've been rotating it about every 6-8 hrs, and noticed that the meat has firmed quite a bit, is that to be expected? I know when I make my own bacon, the bellies firm up too. Going in the smoker this afternoon. Thanks in advance, ~ Old School

      @@SmokehouseBayouSmokedMeats 🤪 Glad I wrote down the formula, 200 grams of salt was too much, 240 grams brown sugar, 100 grams white sugar, 50 grams garlic powder, 6 grams of cayenne, 3 grams of black pepper, 5 grams of Anthonys cure #1 for the 5.34lbs. Tough watching a video trying to guess quantities, lol, the only thing I think I came close on was the brown sugar, based off the 7lbs per 72lbs of meat. Will try backing down to 100 grams of salt (sea), and maybe a little more cayenne and a little less garlic. Other than the salt I over did, I like the way the flavor profile is heading.

      When the jerky smoking cycle is done, I ramp the smoker temp to 260 and it takes it a few minutes to reach that temp. As soon as it does, I shut the smoker down. In addition to the smoking process shown, this last step insures all pathogens are toast! Thanks for watching!
