For those of you who make the jerky in the oven, do you leave the door cracked open? I've never made it, (but have considered it) and have heard some say leaving the door cracked was key.

Yes, it lets the moisture escape.

I have made this recipe exactly (except I let the meat marinate longer, too long actually) with the box fan and A/C filters. It turns out great and does not have that 'cooked' taste from jerky made in dehydrators or ovens that use heat. I think Alton states in the show, commercial jerky is not made by using heat. It makes the jerky taste different, and I prefer his method and commercial jerky to any 'heated' product I have tried.

Yes, keep the oven door cracked just a bit, like you are using the broiler. I set the oven to 170.
