You really can't beat good beef jerky. Believe it or not, this road trip staple is incredibly easy to make! What's more, most of the techniques involved can be applied to a wide variety of meats like venison, elk and other game.

In Jerkin' Around, Chris will take you through all the steps involved with making your own jerky. We'll talk about the best cuts, marinading methods as well as the drying and dehydrating process. Just like in the Sausage Making Class, we'll begin with a demonstration showing the process from start to finish.

Each participant will then get to try their hand at slicing meat for jerky. Everyone then gets their own grip of sliced meat (about 2 lbs.) and is set loose on our marinade bar where you'll be able to make your own proprietary custom jerky marinade. Over the next few days, the Dickson's team will dehydrate everything for you and you'll come back to the shop to pick up your custom jerky to show off to your friends.
