Got one last summer.
Apples, strawberries, bananas, jerky, tomatoes....I’ll try anything.
Lots of info online. Get a vacuum sealer and you are off to the races,
I even made some jerky for the dog.
I dehydrate liver for dog treats.
. Start w/frozen liver. Defrost about halfway. Quickly slice through the usual 4 slices cutting across the slices, then cut each long strip into 3 pieces. Toss w/a scant 1/4 tsp garlic powder. Arrange on the mesh-like plastic tray liners used for fruit. I have a Nesco and run it 2 hours at 160 degrees, turning the pieces over after an hour. If it is still soft, turn to 120 and run until the liver pieces are firm, yet can be broken and are no longer pink inside.
The blood makes the cleanup difficult. I soak the mesh tray liner in a laundry tub and use Dawn Power dissolver on the tray and (carefully) on the base that contains the motor/fan. Then, wash the tray and wipe the dried blood off the base, which cannot be immersed.
Great for the dog. He loves it and a pound of liver lasts about 3 weeks and costs under $3 for beef and less for pork plus the cost of electricity. A pound of commercial treats costs around $10, so there is a cost savings, too.
