BEHIND JERKYSCIENCE
Hi, I’m Sam.
I make jerky.
A dad of three in Milwaukee, with eight years of making jerky and 400+ batches tested in my garage jerky lab.
Sam is an experienced home jerky maker. JerkyScience gives practical questions a clear place to start while keeping established guidance separate from personal observations.
