@freemo I want to use an oven at 40 degrees C, how long should I put in the oven for?
@xyfdi depends how tick you cut it.. super thin could be as little as 5 hours, particularly thick and maybe up to 14.. also depends on how dry you want it...
I'd say try 5 hours then taste test it and see.
@freemo I'll give that a shot. Due to limits of my oven my first attempt was 100degC for ~4 hours. Its now black and hard, but gets better as soon as it gits the saliva.
@xyfdi 100C is absolutely too hard.. meat in a dehydrator (so we are talking air blowing over it and it is open-ended) is 115 F to 125F range. for thin cuts usually 3 - 5 hours. Though i can never cut my meat thin enough for that so i wind up with thick cuts that take 10 hours at the same heat.
So if you use that temperature range, and maybe crack the oven open so the moist air flows out you should be good in 3 - 10 hours depending on thickness.
@freemo I've setup experiment number two. Its in the marinade and will put it in my oven tomorrow. I am curious what it will look like after 5 hours of oven at 40 DegC. 🙂
@xyfdi I think it might work out, might need more or less time, keep an eye on it, but if you sample it throughout you should be good.
@freemo I will! :-) And open the oven every hour or so for fresh air.
@xyfdi good luck, let me know how it goes!
@freemo I am using the weirdest marinade: Sweet Chili, honey and shots of a very smokey whisky. This is going to be interesting to say the least....
