Where to get a food dehydrator?

[Rhys]

Hey all, I am looking to get a food dehydrator to make some jerky from some of the game meat that I have around here.

I tried to make some in the oven before but i screwed it up. I am thinking of trying again but I think I would do better with a food dehydrator.

Anyone know where to get one of these? Does sears/The bay carry them?

Anyone have good/bad experience with them?

Thanks

Rhys

Home Hardware - 2 models available....

Bought 1 or the wife for X-Mas with the Jerky Shooter gun.....I know, hopeless romantic....

Think I paid about $70 for the dehydrator plus $25 for the gun with season mix....

I've got 2 of those Ronco one's that used to be on TV late at night. Paid way too much for the first one and $5 for the second. I've dried fruit, done some Jerky and even dried some animal parts, IE tails etc. They have them at Wally world and they work pretty good.

If your near a London Drugs store they have them. They go on sale once in a while too. It's the round kind with a fan and a heater that you can buy extra trays for and just stack them up. My hunting buddy uses his all the time and I can testify that the jerky comes out fine. John

Walmart $39 works great. Spices pre mixed from "butchers and packers supplies". $5 for 725gr does 10 kgs of jerky. Dont have there number but you can 411 it. Taste great if you mix it evenly.

I bought mine from walmart but I don't think they sell them anymore.
I know otter co-op in Aldergrove has them plus the seasoning and the jerky gun if you want to go that way.
