Jerky made at home

This worked. I got a piece of yearling topside, from Austral meat. Trimmed it and cut it into strips - like the strips you'd cut for a stirfry. Overnight marinade - soy sauce, extra salt, honey, plus some ketjap manis (sweet soy).

Next day when juice is fully absorbed, get it into a dehydrator on full heat. Normally for about 12 hours.

Great quality and really handy for traveling where I HATE getting skinned by eating in restaurants.

Rare fruit planting

Down the side fence. Goji berries - I'm told they're fantastic - dragon fruit (?) and feijoa. Let's see how that all goes.
