Amazing story, lacks depth, lacks flavour, lacks context, author didn’t use enough full stops. Honestly. The recipe. could have been bombs. if it weren’t for the low amount of full stops used. I wish there were more full stops. If we take a closer look at the word full stop, it is a full stop. A Full stop. Full- to have completeness, Stop- to halt; to put an end. If we put the 2 together, we get a complete halt. We are putting a sentence to an end. And thats the beauty of a full stop. Because without full stops in life, how are we going to ever restart and rethink about the things we do in life if all we use are commas and parentheses. Commas are just continuation, full stops are full stops. Lets stop the sentence using a full stop. Lets put an end to sentences using full stops. Lets start to know the difference between a full stop and a half stop. There is a time for full stops and there is a time for half stops. We are often taught to stop when we need to stop. When we stop, we have to stop fully. not half. Therefore, stopping is a gift given by God. And we need to put respect on the name of God. Which is why we use capital letters for God. Notice how i put a full stop at the end of that sentence? Yeah! You got this Julie, or should i say you GOD this Julie! Never stop using full stops.

In reply to Nana.

Nana that is correct. No I have not tired a dehydrator. 20 odd years ago when I first came to UK first year I was so desperate I use the oven in winter, on the grill and as soon as stick together enough to slice I took them out, slice and stacked first before fully grilled but taste was not satisfying to me. Missing that charcoal fire smokey taste.
That time I used grease proofed paper. Now i bribed my postman to give me a few post bags after drowning him with loves of cookies and cakes 😛

Thanks for that. So is it ok if the top is still a bit mushy, but the bottom can be peeled away? also, have you tried using a dehydrator?

Hey Nana, Usually as long as they dry to stick together. Hard to say. Depends on strength of sun. In UK that’s a lottery in itself. However you need to leave it till you can lift them up without them breaking but not too dry or your jerky will be tough kekekeke
