Get as large a boneless butt as you can. Cut the individual
muscles out of the meat and cut off and discard all the fat and
connecting tissue. Cut themeat across the grain as thin as
possible. 1/16 to it will be to dry. Salt and pepper the meat
generously on both sides, using more pepper than salt. Lay out
the meat strips on a cake or oven rack without overlapping them.
Set the rack in an insert fireplace (smoker) and cook on low heat
for 8 to 10 hours, turning every 3 to 4 hours, until dried. You
can do the same with a dehydrator or oven, but it won't turnout
as good. After it's done, store in a pillowcase. Don't STORE it
in plastic, as the meat has to be able to breathe, and a paper
sack will leave a paper taste.
