A Jerky Treat

If you are like me you enjoy eating jerky. The problem is that most store bought jerky tastes more like the bottom of a grease pail than jerky. Because of this I have resorted to only eating jerky that I make, until now.

I've had the pleasure of trying the jerky from Jerky.com and I can tell you that it is some good stuff. They recently sent me two new flavors to try. Sweet and Spicy Mango and Sweet and Spicy Orange. All I can say is grab a cold one and enjoy. These flavors are not what you expect in a jerky but they were both very good and in no way were the flavors overpowering. They hit the spicy part right so if you are into very mild jerky these are not the flavors for you.

If you like jerky and want to try something a bit different click here, order a few bags and enjoy.

This is wrong place to post a question? You did an article on filleting fish in 2007. I need help please. I have some fresh catfish fillets from family that are bloody. They didn't kill or bleed the fish before filleting them. Can the blood be removed AFTER thye are filleted? Can I save these fillets? Thanks for any suggestions. Bevy

Not a problem. Soaking them in water with a small amount of salt will help remove some of the blood. However, the blood in the fillets does not really change the flavor, at least I have not noticed. A bled fish fillet does look better but there is no way I would toss out the fillets. Catfish are one of my favorite fish and many people never bleed a fish before filleting. Warm up the pan and get to frying:)
