They're ceramic. They have a bunch of good features for heat control and distribution, and for long term wear. Everything I've read is that they are worth the money. Definitely a luxury item though.

I've done it. Get a London Broil (which is usually a top sirloin). I usually have the meat deparment slice is as thin as they can (1/8th of an inch). Marinate overnight in soy/L&P/hot sauce (to taste)/garlic powder/cayenne (careful)/ and lots of cracked black pepper.

Soak your wood of choice overnight (fruit woods are good).

I used a bullet smoker. hang the meat over the grill, and smoke over very low heat for about 8 hours. once a small charcoal fire is going, throw some wood on. Usually you will want to add a coal or two every 15-20 minutes - I usually keep a second charcoal fire going to have lit coals available. Add wood as needed. You should be smoking at around 200-250 degrees.

Taste to determine doneness.

That sounds so good,I wanna run up to the store & git me some Jerky now!it would go good with this budweiser beer for sure!

anyone have a recipe???

please do share

No recipe. I've tried lots of ways without a smoker and it never works. I'd try the smoker, if I wasn't lazy.

But, since I am lazy, I'll let you know where to get the best beef jerky in the area. Go across the river on Hwy. 90 to a place called "Bowie Junction". It doesn't look like it's open, but it's got a smoker and their jerky is great. It's on Hwy. 90 just after the short cut route to Thibodeaux (if you know where that is.) Basically, keep going down Hwy. 90 until you see a Shell station with the name Bubba's II on it and "Bowie Junction" is right past that on the left. If you reach the Houma Thibodeaux exit, you've gone to far.

They're only a luxury until you've owned one. Then they become a necessity
