So I was reading that before you dry venison jerky, you should pre cook it to at least 160 degrees. I was wondering if anyone was familiar with this, and if anyone did that, how they did it. Like how long do you cook it for? I would assume you would do that in the oven. Also I don't want the meat to "cook" too much I want it to dry out so I was wondering if pre-cooking it caused any problems with that.
