I'm going on a bit of a jerky binge. I ordered large bags of Venison, Beef, Elk, Buffalo, and Salmon Jerky as well as some Elk slim-jim style sticks. I'm looking for alligator jerky right now.
Anyways, I received the first couple of bags today. They're of considerable size compared the what you get in the supermarket (about 5-10 times the amount of meat comparatively). Some are vacuum packed, others are nitrogen filled.
I asked one of the vendors how to store the jerky after opening the bag it shipped in (which is not resealable) and he told me to put them in resealable bags and store the bags in the refridgerator.
What I'm looking for now are heavy duty ziplock-type resealable bags with thick plastic walls and an that when closed, are close to airtight (because I don't want condensation to build up and ruin $150 worth of jerky (no joke). The idea was for it to last me through at least all of March if not April. Also, I need to be able to mark the bags to denote what jerky it has.
What do you recommend? Thanks.
