Okay, so I finally followed up on Helen & John’s tip and tried venison in the food drier.
This is minced deer tongue before drying. The fluffy thing in the top right corner is El Monto helping (himself).
It took longer to dry than, for instance, chicken. After about 7 hours in the drier I took the meat out and put it on some sheets of kitchen towel, as there was still some fat dripping out. (I thought you said venison is lean, Helen. )
This is the end result… lovely brown “chips” (and some very interested Coonies).
These treats are a huge success. Especially El Monto goes apeshit for them.
They look really great, I have sent for mine, I can wait to get going...!!
