So a full load goes in the Bradley for how long? How to tell when it's time to transfer to the dehydrater? How long in the dehydrater at what temp? Sorry for so many questions at once, but I gotta do this jerkey thing!

I only go with smoke at 4 to 5 pucks and 170* heat. Then its into the dehydrator fo anywhere from 4 to 8 hrs. I have made so much jerky i can tell when its done just by bending it.

The 80L has pretty good reviews, although a few complain about not getting up to temp. Any problems with that??

Not had any problem either. I did have to put it on the dehydrator stand in my kitchen because my garage is not insulated and the cold winter here can mess with the temps.

Hey AmbiguosSmoker and welcome to the forum.

I'm not sure if these are the same identical racks or not, but here are some I think might be close that I been eyeballing for myself soon.

Hope this helps and again, welcome to the forum  ;D


Added: Aurg, I take that back now. Mr Walleye posted when I did and never seen those at Cabelas before. They come with a pan and also can be used in the oven as well.

Scratch what I said, Cabelas looks alot better and same price :)

will these fit on the trays in the bradley digital 6 tray smoker?

I must say this is the friendliest forum I have ever been a part of.


They are 16 3/4 by 14 I believe and the Bradley racks are 15 by 11 & 1/4. It would be nice if they did but that would be way to easy....  ;)

Those are the Cabelas oven jerky racks. They work great for letting your jerky rest at room temp. They wont fit in the Bradley.

Yes GB jerky can be done in the BS. just watch so you dont crisp it up.

Your second question about the jerky gun. Cabelas finaly got it right and redesigned the gun, it is easy to use and clean. sorta looks like the jerky blaster LEM has. I see it at the Cabelas i work at for $29
