This recipe is something that is very exciting to do because it’s not everyday that I get to use an Excalibur Dehydrator when making my dishes.

The process of making meat jerky is simple. Marinade the meat and stick it in the dehydrator. The lack of high-skill applications (no need to have fancy knife or wok skills here) is made up for by a bit of a wait: Overnight for the marinade and four hours to dry it up in the Excalibur.

But, of course, good things come to those who wait. One bite out of this pork tapa and you’ll know that it was worth it.
