1

Start by introducing the recipe and mentioning the goal of making crispy crunchy ground beef crackers.

2

Explain that the recipe will include a dehydrator method and an oven method.

3

Use about 2 and 1/2 lbs of extra lean ground beef for the recipe.

4

Roll the ground beef out super thin between two sheets of wax paper to ensure it dehydrates quickly.

5

Sprinkle Redmond salt on the beef, or any preferred seasoning, while it's still warm after cooking.

6

Score the rolled-out beef into cracker shapes to help break them apart later.

7

Preheat the dehydrator to 165°F and set it for 10 hours.

8

Place the scored beef on dehydrator trays and put them in the preheated dehydrator.

9

Preheat the oven to 300°F for the oven-baked version.

10

Place one sheet of the rolled beef on a regular baking pan and put it in the oven.

11

Check the oven after one hour to see how the beef is cooking.
