If anyone hasn't said it, you're an excellent speaker. Clear, friendly, good motion

[Morrow]

Finally someone explained to me what against the grain means

[MattOzer]

Out of all the videos, this was the one; thank you so much for being thorough on both the dehydrator and oven and explicitly showing how to pasteurize. You rock!!!

[calabrais]

Great video! Finally someone who talks about pasteurizing the jerky. Leaving a comment to feed the algorithm nom nom

I made this exactly to your specifications with 2lbs bottom round, across the grain and cooked in a dehydrator. It's perfection, thank you! Nice kick of pepper with just a hint of sweetness, and oh so tender. 5 stars!

Fantastic video Eric, and a valuable wealth of knowledge for anyone wanting to make their own beef jerky at home. Love the sound and looks of this marinade.

[RicardoPenders]

You've inspired me to start making jerky myself, I like the chewy jerky more because it lasts longer to taste the awesome spices and other ingredients you put into the marinade.
It's going to be a first time for me but now that I've seen how easy it is I just have to try and make it myself, thanks for sharing.

[conniejohnson]

I've watched tons of these videos, yours has me wanting to try this myself, wow, your why of speaking to the camera made me feel you we're speaking to me. Thank you for inviting me into your kitchen, I can't wait for my next lesson. I think I will be binge-watching while making bacon jerky.

[Drewcifer]

Dude. You kill this stuff every time. I was a bit wary when I saw how much marinade you made. "that's way too much" At the end it was drops in the bowl. I am so happy the youtube algorithm pointed me in your direction. You know your stuff and I am happy to learn and watch every single video you make. Thank you.

[tayloredon]

Good voice to listen too, others take note and lose the I am who I am y'all tone . Thank you for having a helpful easy to listen to lesson.

My 9 tray Excalibur dehydrator is about 30 years old, and has been working nonstop without a hitch. Excellent products, imo. Great challenge..😎!!

[ShaolinZX]

I'm so glad I've found this channel for every video being perfekt. And I'm even more glad about the dehydrator I just bought being the same as the one you guys got.

[guybrock]

This is what I have been looking for.
A recipe that's not heavy salted, and no sodium nitrates, and that's low in sugar.
Thank you.

[josemanuelolivares]

Thank you Eric shearing you're knowledge, your YouTube channel is just great and great recipes, Salami, prosciutto, different cheese recipes, now beef jerky, thanks Eric have great weekend 👍

[bodyandsoulinconstanttrans]

another great interesting video you are sharing for free with us! Thank you so very much guys!!! Very generous of you :)

[elisabethbeekman]

I have made several of your recipes, I love your videos and recipes!

[richardwolske]

Love you propped the door open to let the moisture out, I learned the hard way. Your jerky will look gray if the smoke and moisture doesn’t have a way to get away. Great video !

[panodanno]

Eric, We made this jerky last week with a rump roast. Our first jerky. We tried both cut directions and agree that across the grain is our preference. The flavor of this jerky is amazing. Better than any jerky I can remember. Thanks for giving us a great recipe and a new skill!

[Qietman]

This is almost exactly my "basic" recipe I have made dozens of times, except I dry mine in a smoker at about 150, so no liquid smoke.
Great job!

[rami-arjoss]

Excellent and high-quality video, detailed and good explanation, thank you very much
