    First of all, this recipe is awesome! It makes the best jerky and it's not hard to chew! BONUS!

    I had a heck of a time finding "cheap" paper filters like he suggested. The only ones I could find was about $4.00 a piece but I was dying to try this one out. I also found the jerky meat already cut up at Super Walmart. It cost about the same as any other bottom round or London Broil (same thingso I bought it to save me some trouble.

    I will TOTALLY agree with what another person wrote about using a cheap box fan because I used a fan I just bought a few months ago and the medium speed feels and sounds like low so I just put it on high and kept it there.

    I also marinated the meat for around 12 hours to make sure the flavors really soaked in. I'm glad I did!

    Overall I'm pleased with the outcome of this jerky recipe but I don't think I'll make it again until I can find some cheaper filters because paying $4.00+ for 4 filters plus meat can get expensive. Any ideas where I can get $1.50 filters??

    This is an excellent recipe and not as hard as it sounds. Recipe is rated as expert, but only need medium knowlege of cooking skills. Jerky turned out exactly as it should and is delicious. A little spicy so if do not like spicy food, cut back a little on the red pepper flakes. If you like jerky do not be afraid to try this recipe.

    I used the box fan method to make five pounds of jerky last week and it is so much better than what you get in the stores. Patience is key with this, AB's time estimation is just about perfect. The result is a moist jerky that is very tender and the marinade imparts just the right amount of flavor.

    Even though I couldn't find the correct fan filters, (and both my Husband and I looked in several stores, I did it anyway using my dehydrator. My husband and his brother loved it and asked me to make it again, for the 3rd time. I think I may try the window screen idea I read on another review next time. Really cool way to dehydrate. I love Alton's originality!!

    I can't believe this is rated expert...it's so easy. And it's the best jerky I've had. Not to mention it's cheap...jerky's pricey at the store.

    The Fan is the coolest part. Don't buy a cheap box fan though - the airflow is too weak. (I learned this the hard way.

    Lakewood makes a high-power 20" box fan model P-25 that matches perfectly to 20"x20" air filters.

    Finally, go to the cheaper section of air filters to find the ones that don't use metal or fiberglass. There's a brand called American Filters (or something like that These are ideal. You can take the two support strips off easily by cutting them at the frame and peeling them off.

    It all stakcs perfectly with a 36" bungee cord - when you're using 4-6 filters.
