Jerky lasts for ages, properly stored. However, that said, you should make your own. It's easy (there are recipes everywhere on the 'net, for instance) and **way** cheaper than purchasing it. And, no, you do not need a dehydrator of any type. Excellent jerky can be made right in a standard oven.

Just wait until bottom round roast is on sale (or picnic roast if you want to make pork jerky).

I found several jerky recipes today. We’ve made jerky in the past, but these look better. At least that would be a good fill in if there comes a time we can’t buy or afford meats. Also, bullion to add to rice and veggies or just to drink at times.
