I used to make jerky. Duck and venison come to mind. Fall is a perfect
time to do it if you have black pepper, fishing line and a garage to
string the line in. Coarse black pepper keeps the flies off.
The process could be done in a spare room if where the jerky might drip,
at first, is protected. You'd probably need less pepper too.
Jerky is hard to get wrong. Even I could do it. I think I used some sort
of soy marinade first. Maybe, just salt and pepper. Too long ago. :(

Hmm, the garage would not be good, that would give it a distinct gasoline fume taste. =(
But maybe I can convince the wife to let me decorate the upstairs with beef slices hanging from the ceiling! =D
Come to think of it, a perfect location would be the country house in sweden. Plenty of places were it could hang and dry without disturbing anyone.
How long do you let it hang?
