[NobodyHere]

I've been on a quest lately to make some oven-baked beef jerky.

My first attempt was terrible. I left it in the oven too long or for too high and I just got burnt crisps of meat.

I just made another batch this weekend and I don't know how to fully describe it. I wouldn't call it "good" but yet I can't keep on picking on pieces of it whenever I wander by the kitchen. I used 90% lean ground beef that was on sale so it basically tastes like very flavorful old beef patties. Again, they're not great but I can't help but pick at them.

I'm going to offer a few pieces to my office workers on Monday to see what they think, assuming I don't eat the batch up tomorrow.
