My mom got herself another birtdhay present... that will work in my favor!
Last year, a friend of my mom lent her a dehydrator to make chicken jerky for me. She made it a couple of times and then she gave it back to her friend.
We were looking for one of those machines here in Mexico and we could not find any. One day she visited a site that is more or less like ebay. We found one. Used. At a price of around $500 usd... Haaaa! My mom thought that she is crazy... but not enough to pay that price!
One week ago, another friend of my mom told her that she was going to go to the States and asked to her if she needed something from there. Yeeees! That was our chance. My mom gave her some money and told her what she wanted.... and today we got it!
Ta-Da!
You know me, right? 
Then, my grandma cut the chicken breast and a yam... and I was there making sure she did it in the right way!
The yam... or sweet potato... or camote (hmm... sounds better in english!)
The chicken...And out to the patio...
It is 8:15pm and I am still waiting for them to be ready.Have a good night

I'm sure your treats are well worth the wait! :-)
Let us know if that works because that looks like something week need our mom to buy us for our birthday...
You are a very lucky girl!

Wow. Now that is a great, really fantabulous thingy. Alpha Mom's birthday is this summer. I wonder if she'd like one of those. Probably not so much since she's a non-cooking vegetarian, but it would save a lot of money in the long run. Those chicken jerky treats cost a lot more that just getting the chicken. And I bet home made is like a whole different experience. Hey, have you ever had duck jerky treats? Sometimes they have it at the Wal-Mart around here. I love it!
wags, Lola
AWESOME! Home made jerky and all kinds of stuff? You are one lucky girl, Lorneza!

Que presente fantástico! Aposto que tudo ficará delicioso! E você é uma garota sortuda!
Lorenza, I know you got a good one, beclaws my mom has one just like it!!! We also have a different type that works well,too. It smells sooooo yummmy when she makes jerky. Tell your mom that she can also do bananna chips for you and.... SWEET POTATO CHIPS.... My mom soaks those in honey and water furst. Happy Snacking !!!!!
Be sure to let us know how they turn out, Lorenza. Our Mom has been thinking about getting one of those too.
That was a very nice thing for your Mom's friend to do.
We LOVE yams.

I hear that a watched pot never boils. I hope that's not true for dehydrators! Chicken jerky sounds really yummy right now!

You've got a good friend. And a good moma. And a good new treat machine! After a batch of chicken jerky, OurGirl recommends turkey jerky. It's one of her favorites ... and we like everything she eats!

How long will it take? I'm thinking this is a good way to make dried liver training treats--outdoors because liver is stinky.
luckee!!! :)
That is a fabulous gadget.. Wish my mommy had one too so she can make me lots of treats. The chicken jerky looked so yummy...
Hopefully you will get the jerkies in no time and they taste absolutely yummy...

We totally LOVE Chicken Jerky and we like yams raw. Maybe we should ask Grammy to use her dehydrator to make us some dried yams? We wonder about dried carrots too?
Grammy loves her dehydrator. She makes beef jerky and rabbit jerky for the people, and dries several different kinds of fruits, too, like figs and persimmons… They’re pretty good, too! The CCC
That looks like quite a good & delicious investment!
