Sounds crazy, but it works very well. no need to for extra appliances. Idea came from Alton Brown of Good Eats fame.

Doesn't sound crazy. Jerky came from American Indians. Thin slice of meat dried in the sun hanging on sticks. They built a smoky fire around the drying meat to keep bugs away. No fancy gadgets just the heat of the sun and a little accidental smoke for flavor.
They also made pemmican the same way but dried the meat completely then added fat and berries for long term storage nd protein.
