Oh well, if you include recipes, then it's easy! The last time I tried
something new was the barley stew I posted here a week or so ago! =)

dehydrator?  I have a 40 year or so old 'ronco' with the 7 drying
trays.  This may sound odd but we like to cut pot roast (marbling and
all) and marinade it then dry or at least partly dry it (we nibble it
before done).

Can I do it in the oven? I dreamt about making my own beef jerky but
have not yet tried it. I fear that the oven will give a suboptimal
result.

You could use Teriyaki seasoning, or a mix of your own.

I'd say teriyaki for the win! Thank you for the recipe. Soy sauce is
easy, as is Worchestershire, but Jufran banana sauce I have never heard
of. Might be tricky to get here.

Sounds like a winner! One of my fathers favourites when I Was a child
was "Sausage Stroganoff". He did a similar stew but replaced meat
with tasteless swedish Falukorv (sausage) which I've never been a fan
off.

I thought of that as I have a lb of Italian mild sausage I made up from
some ground pork.  The sausage should work well in another rendition.

It's about time to catch another .99/lb porkbutt sale, to grind for

If you have a sausage with taste, I think it could be a very good
combination!
