Woops! forgot you're in aus :p sorry! Could possibly send you some from my own supply, i made a bunch with manuka and hickory.

Hmm I might try the hickory I reckon, will try get it with my next shipment I do.
haha don't worry mate just don't hold it against me! How do you make your own liquid smoke?

Bill - You can't put fat in jerky as it makes it go rancid very quick; that marbling does make cracking meat though!


Actually Angus while I have you here I do have a far related question, I know it's bad but is there a tolerable amount?
I took this pic last night while working on it (for money reasons I grabbed round again last night but pay comes in today ), I took off most visible meat but was left with this sort of thing. I took to it with scissors but is it really necessary or am I going over the top?



My comp shit itself and deleted the other image but you get the idea!
