Santa gave me a food dehydrator for christmas. I know it sounds jerky but hey. Two of my cousins went hunting and they each bagged an elk so there was plenty of it to go around. I used three pounds of ground elk to make these batches. I actually used two dehydrators each filled this full, had to, elk is hard to come by in NYC.
4 big bags of chile each with its own flavor and degree of heat, each from a different part of New Mexico, my folks take chile seriously.

and my one kid LOVES deer jerky....loves, loves, loves it. and that stuff is expensive! I would think that dehydrator would come in handy....

That looks like an American Harvest, (or whoever owns them now) dehydrator! Elk jerky? Wow!
You made elk jerky? How exotic! Have you ever tried ostrich jerky?
I'm so jealous--not only do I want a dehydrator; I also want the room to store one.
beth: look around yard sales or ebay...its worth it.
Buffalo: you can spot your dehydrators
Barrie: I would love to try some ostrich jerky
