I'm going on a 3-day backpacking trip in a month and have started preparing some food for it. I went out today and bought a box fan and some air filters to make jerky alton-brown style as seen in the videos below. After strapping the filters onto the fan though, it seems like very little air is getting through. Has anyone tried this method and what kind of results did you experience? Also, please share your favorite recipes/techniques for jerky or dehydrated food in general. I cut a flank steak into strips and have it marinating right now in a recipe I threw together loosely based on the korean bbq thread on here a few weeks ago. It contained soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, a big spoonful of garlic and ginger paste, about a teaspoon of sambal oelek, probably two tablespoons of brown sugar and a little dark sesame oil. Smelled and tasted great.
