    I'm a Canadian, but I have a lot of South African friends, both here in Canada and in S.A. and I of course love beef jerky. (also Salmon jerky, Bison jerky, turkey jerky and venison jerky, which includes deer, elk, moose, and caribou) ... I do make my own because I have a large food dehydrator, but I am going to build a Biltonginator 3000, and make some South African Biltong...thanks for the recipe, and the look at how you made the machine....and for being the first food-oriented video on UA-cam that has actually made me drool...lmao...Dankie Ben...and Geseende Kersfees!

  • @philippschwartzerdt3431
    @philippschwartzerdt3431 Рік тому

    Made my own box (took slightly larger one but also with the little wheels, thank you Ikea 😉). To build the box from start to finish, once I had all the tools and gadgets together, it took me about 40 min. to build. I made a couple of more holes (including the lid) and placed a computer fan on top that allows me to seamlessly adjust its speed. Against insects I have used an insect mesh for windows that can be fixed with velcro. To ensure that I do not keep it too long or to short, I have little labels per hanger where I write the original weight of the slice and its target weight. Since everybody likes it a little different, it allows to bring it to find the sweet spot (moist 50% to hard dry 30% of the original weight). I have added a heat source, a 40W light bulb placed in the mid bottom of the box, a multi purpose plug on the lid and a thermometer that allows me to check the temperature from tome to time. I am able to establish a repeatable result by using the same settings, once I found my perfect taste. It is then also possible to use different meats from different animals (i.e. game) and cuts and see what needs to be changed. When cutting the meat I decided to go with the “grain” so to say, that allows to cut the Biltong slices against the fiber growth and it becomes easier to eat it is never chewy. I am adding a number of other things to the marinade, like Worcester sauce when marinating the meat and a spoon of baking soda (to 1 kg meat) against the building of mold spores or bacteria. When I feel adventurous I am experimenting with some self made herbs & spice mixtures (i.e. Mediterranean herbs style, Indian style with a special curry powder, Asian style with chili and Lemongrass, Mexican style with chili flakes and marinated with tabasco, Levante/Arab style with ras-al-hanout, etc.) - but the original is still the best.
