Beef

As promised, I've been putting the dehydrator that my mom procured for me to good use while prepping for my backpacking trip. So far not much has turned out that great since I'm still figuring out which foods do best in it. Spices, like garlic powder have been most successful, dried crushed pineapple has been the least (I should have used full slices). But I did have success with my first beef jerky!
The recipe that I used can be found at the Eating SCD blog. I used light sesame oil, instead of dark because I had it on hand, and I didn't use any liquid smoke because it's hard to find SCD safe. Drew felt the jerky was a little spicy, not that he couldn't handle it, but that spicy isn't exactly what you want when you are hiking on the trail. Next time I might use less pepper and/or red pepper flakes and more pineapple juice.
