why is dried up leather beef so pricey bros

just by a dehydrator bros, good for fruit and peppers too!

screw you!
>flips table

>>14923384
beardo hipsters and keto diet morons

they think eating jerky is "manly"

>>14923398
I have a friend who recently invested in a decent dehydrator and the jerky he's been making is leagues better than store bought but its still not a cheap snack to make

>>14923438
>meat isn't cheap
color me shocked!!!

it still shouldn't be like 90x as expensive as whatever cubed up "stew beef" you can get in the discount section though.

>snack
it's not supposed to be a snack, jerky has historically been a travel ration, and rations are never cheap because of the fairly stringent requirements for how long it's gotta last and how light it's gotta be

Jerky is way too sweet, makes me want to puke. I can't believe Americans eat it.

>>14923436
whats that have to do with the price

Beef jerky has to be one of the most overrated foods in the world similar to potato chips
Cooked meat and french fries are just the same things but better in every single way

>>14923453
mother of obsessed

>>14923468
beardo hipsters and keto faggots are generally affluent and are willing to (and in fact prefer to) pay high prices for things they find to their fashion

same reason they buy 1200$ Cold Steel™ folding knives to cut open their Amazon packages

>>14923453
>too sweet
then you're eating a shit brand. again, just make your own how you like it.

>>14923468
He's a fucking idiot. Beef jerky is expensive because it takes four pounds of beef to make one pound of beef jerky.

>>14923212
>>14923398
How hard is it to make yourself? Can you fuck it up and spoil the meat somehow? Do you absolutely need a dehydrator?

>>14923506
ah ok
>>14923480
answer the question next time retard

>>14923516
You can do it in the oven on baking racks. It takes 4-5 hours at 175 degrees.

>Eating this as a snack
This is supposed to be a full meal unless you're reach enough to splurge $6 on a single serve snack

>>14923516
>Can you fuck it up and spoil the meat somehow?
like any other recipe sure. you're throwing around a lot of salt and lemons, shit can go very wrong

>Do you absolutely need a dehydrator?
no, how do you think they made it before electricity? you can smoke it at high heat in a mostly sealed chamber

>>14923506
>you need a 4:1 ratio by weight
>so it's okay that it's 10-20x as expensive as the raw product
it's literally like 10-15$ for 75g of jerky. raw beef should be between 5-10$/kg.

>>14923384
>why is dried up leather beef so pricey bros
Because you are taking a lot of steak and dehydrating it. If you actually made it yourself you would understand the price

>>14923516
you could do it in a oven or do it over a fire

at my local store you can buy like 12 strips of that thin meat for like 7-10 dollars

>>14923248

The "D" stands for 'Dysentery'

>>14923549
it's a fraction of the price if I make it myself. The only thing that helped me understand is how much they are shamelessly ripping off normalshits

>>14923224
this

>>14923506
No it doesn't, it takes 2 pounds of beef to make 1 pound of jerky.

>>14923537
The oven method sucks, just buy a dehydrator.

I buy pasture raised quality beef round from the premium butcher for $10/lb, since you lose 50% of the water weight, it takes $20 to make 1 premium pound of jerky. Assuming you buy off the internet, that is about what Jack Links costs, and Jack Links uses low quality shitty meat.

>>14923212
these and bridgefords are always 4$ at Walmart and dollar general

>>14924889
Why does the oven method suck?

>>14923212
The only Beef Jerkey I have in this country :(

>>14923478
He might be obsessed but he's right, I've seen jerky that's like 40% sugar by weight. It's probably mostly done as a cost cutting measure but it tastes like garbage.

>>14923476
It's not the same thing, the beef flavor in jerky is intensified since it has little water left in it and I just really like the tough texture of it sometimes.

whats a good dehydrator i could buy bros?

>>14923436
Beef jerky is not keto. It has ridiculous amounts of added sugar.

>>14924937
Because it cooks the meat giving it an inferior texture.

>>14924964
Depends on the brand or recipe. Tillamook makes a zero sugar jerky, for example. But you can also make your own with no sugar as well.

>>14924986
Just finished a bag, love the zero sugar stuff

>>14923480
>it's just beardo hipsters and keto tards

No, it's most people in general. Most people will blow 150% of their disposable income on stupid fashion statements and cheap plastic garbage so they can add worthless tokens to their otherwise nonexistent identities.

>>14923548
>it's literally like 10-15$ for 75g of jerky.
$10-15 is enough for a 10 ounce bag at least. You're overpaying if you're paying that much for 75g.

>not making your own
>eating the absolute translucent garbage that is Jack Link's

>>14925167
Weird thumb

>>14923480
>$1200
>cold steel
Cold steel is literally a poorfag brand, what are you on about, retard?

>>14923384
Meat isn't cheap. You're dehydrating it, so to get a pound of jerky, you might need 3-4 pounds of beef. Plus ingredients. Plus labor and dehydrators and packaging and electricity bills because it takes several hours to dehydrate jerky. Then insurance for your food facility and rent. Then whatever marketing or any other overhead you may have and after all that you make a profit.

I briefly considered starting a small jerky business, but fuck that. Too much competition, most people don't know what good jerky is and the margin is too low.

>>14925167
Storing jerky in plastic bags like those makes the jerky taste like plastic. A glass jar with a desiccant packet is best for long term storage, or foil wrapped for short term.

>>14925250
These batches never lasted more than a week and was never an issue.

>>14923453
oh look, it's this obsessed retard again.

>>14925167
can I have some

>>14925043
an 80g bag of Jack's™ Links® is literally like 12$.

>>14925199
Cold Steel is a poorfag brand the same way Gucci and Louis Vitton are. It takes a lot of money to play pretend.

>>14925589
It literally doesn't. Their folding knives are cheap, meh quality, and have mid to low tolerances, but are a bit better than others for the price. I'm like 90% sure you don't work a job that requires a knife.

>>14925613
>a job that requires a knife.
you never "require" a knife; you're just a dumb mallninja who thinks "manly" jobs use knives and not any more appropriate tools like saws, hatchets, drills, or explosives

go break another folder "batoning" retard hick

>>14923212
Don't know why people don't just make it themselves in the oven, it's ridiculously easy and once you have had homemade jerky you won't ever go back to that rubber shit you buy from a petrol station

>>14925638
I'm an electrician you fucking retard. I strip non-metallic cable all the fuck time. Knives are used constantly by people like carpenters and machinists as well. You are just too retarded to actually understand what they are used for so you sperg out about how everyone who owns one is actually a mallninja who never uses their shit,

Don't think I can go back to store bought jerky after trying some store bought biltlong a week ago.

Multiple machinists I know use folders to remove burrs on softer metals, you don't strip cable sheath with wire strippers you fucking retard, and carpenters have used knives to mark cuts for like 99% of history, retard, and still regularly do on detail cuts.

I'm in IT and use a pair of needle nose pliers with a cable/wire cutter because I'm not a retard who insists on using the wrong tool all the time

>>14928358
Side cutters are fine but it's generally not a great idea to jam needle nose pliers into a tight fit zip tie. It's really easy to damage sheathing doing that. I also don't see how using a knife is objectively wrong for cutting a zip tie, care to explain why cutting plastic with a knife is wrong?

>>14928472
>if you use cable cutters to remove a zip tie
Are you illiterate or something? I said that you shouldn't jam needle nose pliers into a tight fit zip tie because they have multiple relatively sharp edges that can damage or nick cable sheathing and it puts high pressure on the copper which causes strain on the metal. A knife, provided it isn't owned by a retard. is extremely sharp, and usually has a single edge which means you aren't applying significant pressure to the cables and run significantly less risk of nicking/crushing them unless you have parkinsons. I also explicitly specified that side cutters are fine for zip ties and I use them if they're handy.

>>14928548
The fuck kind of schizo post is this? I have an electrician's knife not some tacticool mall ninja shit. I also believe it was specified that the lad didn't place the zip ties in the first place. I don't think he has any control over what they do beforehand and retarded faggots tend to do shit wrong in any field. Needle nose pliers are also significantly larger than a pen knife sized blade and have at the least 2 sharp edges and usually a pair of side cut jaws at the base. This runs more risk of creasing/nicking/doing whatever flavor of damage you'd like to the cable than say slipping a thin blade in between the tie and any cables to slice the soft plastic. I'm also not going to bother doing some poverty shit and have already said I use side cut pliers to cut ties when I find them more convenient. I dunno if this is some kind of advanced autism where you think everyone who says anything is personally attacking you, but you might wanna calm down and actually read the posts before you write some long ass rant about shit that isn't relevant.

>>14928548
mega huge ULTRA cope. go dilate, tranny

I have cut thousands of zipties in my life and have never once damaged a cable with these, do some of you think you need to jam part of the tool inside the ziptie and then press down?

Angle it so you are cutting the outside of the zip with both sharp edges making contact at the same time.

>>14928826
>I DID read your post
My bad then. What knife do you bring? It depends a lot on blade shape/geometry/whatever bullshit on how easily it'll cut through without fucking your hand the same way it does with shit like wood carving. If you want an actual work knife that isn't some hardware store meme shit look for a thin blade with a full flat grind if possible. It should cut through anything softer than bone like butter, and not in the meme "mah buck knife sliced 1cm into a sheet of paper it'll cut through that like butter" way, if kept sharp. I usually try to carry something under a 4in blade generally don't have any issues with it dulling after sharpening so long as I give it an occasionally touch up.

>>14928826
You need your test levels checked if you have to carry around pussy shit like >>14928696 because you're too poor to get a Mora.

>>14928861
>under 4in
Pussy shit. 6in or longer. Serrated back. Hollow handle for your survival tools (rolled up TacTQ and 3-5 strike-anywheres) and a tanto style edge.

>>14928861
>under a 4in blade
ZERO test

>>14928844
I don't think you have your head on straight bud, do you show up to a job with just your knife? Obviously not

You have cutters already on you for other tasks for the day, why would you reach for a pocket knife when you have a tool meant for the job already?

>>14928861
It's all good, I carry a Spyderco Delica4.

>>14928887
I carry those for work, I understand a pair of diagonal cutters are not a survival knife all-purpose knife.

>>14928918
Based spydercofag
I have a chaparral I use occasionally, but I prefer sheepsfoot or hakwbill for working around sensitive shit that I'd rather not damage.

how else to strip romex? it's all you need bud

>>14928918
>do you show up to a job with just your knife?
You can always tell the noobs apart because they're the ones that still carry toolboxes. Real men need no more than a Ka-Bar.

>>14928943
>>14928970
absolutely based

>>14928942
Had a hawkbill that grew feet on a job, was good while I had it.
>>14928962
I agree, stripping romex with a knife has been the easiest/most efficient way for me.

I went up and read when this whole talk started and i'm not the guy mentioning wire strippers for romex, I just saw people discussing tools so hopped in.

>>14928970
I too land wires by stabbing them into place.

>>14925167

i'd pay for your awesome looking jerky anon, i've made it and had it from hicks and is far superior than store stuff
>>14925735
eating this right now, its underwhelming and has 7g sugar per ounce which is fucking stupid
but it was cheap so meh

anyone arguing knives aren't versatile and valuable in every single trade is a god damn manchild

>>14928994
>I too land wires by stabbing them into place.
Yes, you shove them in with the back side or the handle. Are you stupid or something?

>>14929000
>anyone arguing knives aren't versatile and valuable in every single trade is a god damn manchild
This. From network ops to train conducting, a proper Knife (6+ in Blade, fixed) is all you need on the Site.

>>14928994
>Had a hawkbill that grew feet on a job
Sucks. I've never had any knives stolen, but I had my spare small engines box nabbed my some faggot a while back.

>i'm not the guy mentioning wire strippers for romex
I could tell by the way you aren't schizophrenic.

>>14929016
>>14928994
IKR? Why would someone use a wire stripper on romex? It's fucking impossible. No such tool exists. Schizos are so weird... Why don't they just get knives?

>>14929009
6+inch blade? LOL. You've never been on a construction site or worked a second in any trade if you think a giant hunk of metal like that is of enough use to lug around all day.

>>14929028
It's the only tool you ever need. Anything else is useless faggotry that just takes up precious Grams.

>>14929004
Guess so, ordering a dozen Ka-Bars now.

>>14929016
That's rough, stolen tools is such a gut wrenching feeling when it happens, coworker buddy had his entire bag of power tools taken from work van while we were checking into a job site, pitched in for some new ones because I knew he'd do the same for me.

>>14929028
>6+inch blade? LOL.
yeah, 10-12 is preferable. You want to have good prying ability and batoning power.

>>14929040
That was G*d telling your friend that he doesn't need power tools, and should get by on his manful power with just a proper knife.

What the fuck is thread

>>14925808
Why would anyone lug around this shit when I have a perfectly good friction folder?

Who here Kirkland?

>>14929059
knife phobic vegans are trying to fuck around and are now finding out.

>>14924945
>hes right
because only americans eat jerky. fuck off

>>14925968
see
>>14926003

>>14929090
as a snack food it's pretty distinctly american. when i was in europe I didn't see it in convenience stores or chain grocers like you see it in every impulse buy rack or large snack section in the US and Canada

i'm not an electrician, but fyi anon, i think people are trolling you, i don't know why a good electrician couldn't carry around a toolbox with a few different cutters/cable stripping tools etc

>>14925638
can somebody explain to me why the fuck these niggers are trying to hammer a knife through a block of wood when the right tool for the job is a wedge hammer or an axe

>>14929705
they were sold a meme knife advertising itself as versatile and able to be an axe among other things and then complained on reddit that they broke

kek

>>14923453
I thought that say Britbong.

I just don't understand how it's so much better and yet comparatively cheap to shitter jerky.

>>14925872
lol wut

>>14929669
> i don't know why a good electrician couldn't carry around a toolbox with a few different cutters/cable stripping tools etc
Because all you need is a good knife.

>>14923224
>being an american NIGGER
Atleast in africa they have the dicency to cut your hand off

>>14924964

No. There are many types that have zero sugar.

Go to the store next time and look at the back of the packages. There are options.

itt
electricians explain how to do their jobs and non-electrician college drop outs seethe because they bought expensive "electrician" tools for no real reason

>>14931307
This.

>(((wire)))""strippers""

Just use a fucking knife you retarded niglets.

>>14925735
So it’s sugared beef and pork mush, dried and sliced. Mmm, sounds delicious.

>>14930878
The closest things on there are either designed to shear small bolts or turn coax nuts. There is nothing there to strip cable sheath.

>>14932098
Well turn/crimp the coax nuts should probably mention that as well before he has another sperg fit after a google search.

>>14928548
>zap-strapping your shit that tight in the first place
Retarded end users do this, not me.
