TSC Family Pets Thread

Just an FYI for those looking for way to spoil their family pet (cat or dog).
I recently made some smoked turkey treats that my dogs and cat LOVE. I grabbed a 1 pound chub of 90/10 ground turkey, loaded it into my jerky gun and shot out a large tray of stips. Then I put those strips right into the smoker along with the peppercorns and pink salt I had in there to smoke. After maybe 2-3 hours the strips had dried and were ready to take out. The texture was a bit dry and flakey compared to cured/seasoned turkey jerky but the Dogs and cat go wild.

NO, I'm not selling dog treats, I'm just sharing how you can make your own.

Interesting. Do you have a recommendation for a jerky gun? I'm going to have to try this.

This is what I have, I have had it at least 25 years (probably more like 30). It does the job but I would love to find something that holds more so I have to load fewer times when doing large batches. I load the strips directly onto aluminum wire grill things I got from amazon like this
If you don’t load directly to the grill liners it can go south quickly.

I'm definitely going to give this a try.
