Anyone ever make their own meat sticks without cure in them? Wondering about safe ways to handle them so I don't poison myself like I almost did with canned venison (didn't pressure can first ever batch) or like I absolutely did with pheasant back mushrooms where I shit through a screen door for 6 hours straight.
Looking to make a test batch this weekend in the dehydrator and then vacuum seal them and send to the freezer in small packs. I'm aiming to come up with a formula that is just spices and marinade, without sugar and cure. Dr. Barry gave me some he found on Amazon, but they're $17/lb, but I don't love beef sticks that much. But for $7/lb prime, I certainly can.

1 lb Venison slice ¼ inch thick ¼ cup brown sugar 1 TBS black pepper 1 TBS Onion Powder 1TBS Garlic Salt 1 TBS Lemon Juice 2 TBS Liquid Smoke 1 TSP Paprika 1 TSP Crushed red pepper 2 TSP Hot pepper sauce ½ cup Worchestire sauce ½ cup Teriyaki Sauce ½ cup Soy Sauce
1. Whisk together the sugar, black pepper, onion powder, garlic salt, lemon juice, liquid smoke, paprika, hot pepper sauce, Worcestershire sauce, teriyaki sauce, and soy sauce in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Add the venison strips and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 24 hours. Mix the venison a few times as it marinates to ensure even absorption of the marinade. 2. Remove the venison strips from the marinade and squeeze off excess. Discard the remaining marinade. Arrange the venison on the racks of a food dehydrator so that it does not overlap. 3. Dry the venison on High until dry but still pliable, about 4 hours. The jerky should bend without breaking. Store the jerky in an airtight container or in a resealable plastic bag.

Some I havent made in years, for no reason other than I just havent. That is awesome! Am I ok to skip the cure as long as I keep them frozen and eat within a few days of being thawed? Also, what about temp regime? Saw some talk last night about starting on low heat like 120 and working up to 165 over 5-6 hours.
