Love me some dried pineapple. I learned chunks turn out better than rings.

If you have a box fan, you have a dehydrator. Just need some cellulose (not fiberglass) furnace filters that fit over the face of the fan and some bungee cords to hold them in place.

I'm gonna have to check this place out

How is the augason stuff?

I haven't done jerky on one yet, but I have dried some strawberries and herbs using the blowhard 5000. If you're doing fruit I think his recommendation of the plastic dehydrator tray inserts would be a good investment. The berries dyed the filters where there was contact, but did not affect the flavor.

As for the Auguson Farms stuff, the scout troop likes them a bit better than the MRE's I send out with them. Though the MRE's are usually right at or slightly past the use by date, but still safe according to the sticker. Not great reviews on the eggs, but the corn meal I was told made passable corn bread and johnny cakes and the soup bases were a hit at the klondike trip. I have some of the AF cheese powder I am going to try with some macaroni from the LDS store soon.

I missed getting tickets to his Live show in Denver in FEB.

Anyone up north planning on making a run down there any time soon? I think I might head down this coming weekend or the following.

My wife went there on Saturday.

Basically, they only sell stuff already canned up. DIY is no longer, however they still have the portable ones for borrowing. And the bulk stuff.

She said there wasn't a whole lot for sale already canned... they had cases of some stuff and she got a case of pinto beans that were in the #10 cans. When we go this weekend I'll take more notes.

We call ahead, since it's a bit of a drive.
