show more I am looking to make beef jerky at home but am a bit confused on how long to keep it in the dehydrator. My dehydrator works at about 140 degrees. I read somewhere to keep it in for 20-24 hours but when i tried that it was way too overdried. How can you tell when it is done? even after that much time it seemed somewhat moist when i removed it. Obviously after it was out for a bit it had become pretty brittle.
1 Placing the meat in a freezer for an hour or two before cutting will make it easier to cut thinly. 2  Do not allow the jerky to become too dry or it will become hard and unpleasant. 3  While drying out your jerky if you see any oil (fat) spots, dab it with paper towel to absorb it. Place your prepared meat directly on a wire rack, with a saucepan or catch underneath to catch the marinade dripping from the jerky. 2  Cook for 1 - 3 hours, depending on the cut of meat. 3  Dehydration could take even longer, so be sure your meat is cooked through before taking from the oven.
