I just borrowed my son's food dehydrator and was wondering if anyone has any good recipes to prepare meat for dehydrating.  I am assuming you cut meat (steak - pork) into thin strips (how thin?).  Marinate the meat in something?  Fry or grill them to get most of the fat out.  Dehydrate (for how long?) and then keep refrigerated until ready to eat.  As you can see, I know nothing?  I love spicy and heavily peppered jerky.  I also assume you can buy fairly inexpensive cuts of meat, since you are marinating it well before cooking and drying.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.
