New Kitchen Toys!

[Shermie]

But, Shermie, it is shiny...and new....and today is prime day....

I didn't know that today is Prime Day, but no more stuff for the kitchen. I DO need things otherwise, but not for the kitchen. Can't do that. Only when something breaks or once in a while. I have to learn to do without it or wait until something is broken or bites the dust. Or the apt will get cluttered again. Don't want that. I've weened out & have gotten rid of most things. You're right, Kathleen, it IS pretty, shiny & new, but why buy another air fryer if I already have one?

I couldn't find my old NESCO dehydrator anywhere. Dammit! Oh well, time to go get a new one I guess.

My main goal was to get a jerky dryer that is one step above anything @Shermie would get - and I did it. Haha, just kidding, @Shermie

So… we got this NESCO 7 tray stainless steel tray unit. Jalapeño mix.

Wow, Mark! Did you buy those perfectly-sliced strips that way? What temp did you set the unit on? I'd like to make some in my Breville toaster oven,

Hiya Lee,
I set the temperature at 160F for about 3 hours. I haven’t confirmed this temp to be accurate yet.
I use 93/7 ground chuck and put it thru a jerky gun. Super easy. This batch was local venison.
There are cheaper machines out there but we figured if we are gonna spend the money we might as well pee away another $60~ and get away from plastic.

Ohhhh, a jerky gun! That's new to me, too! Damn, my brother would have loved making jerky with that!
