Bison Jerky is soo good, and Paleo too.

Bison Jerky is soo good, and Paleo too.


This was my first batch of bison jerky. As I set up my goals for 2010, I know I need to change my body composition. The more I read about it, the easier it seems. More veggies, more fruits, more lean animal food, less processed crap. I’m not 100% sold on the Paleo diet, but I think the basic make sense.
Anyway, I’ve had trouble getting over my “chip need”. I like to eat something like a chip – crunchy, and not wet like a pepper. Not that peppers are bad, just that they don’t seem to fill this need. Oh, but yummy bison jerky does.
Ground buffalo is ~$7/lb, from a farm a few mintures from here. Nice big dumb grass fed meat, like God intended it. After 8 hours in the dehyrdator, 6 oz of jerky comes out. Both my sons (6 & 2) loved the stuff – my daughter not so much. I myself am in heaven when I’m crewing it down.
I’m going to experiment with some different recipes; if I find one that rocks I’ll post it here.
