The air vent should be open to allow steam to escape. If it doesn't escape, your jerky will not dry out.

How long do you cook ground venison in dehydrator?
y0u don't cook beef jerky in a dehydrator you dehydrate it for 4 - 15 hours usually Dehydrating is still cooked beef. Beef jerky can be "dehydrated" in the oven too which is just "cooking" the jerky until it is dried out enough to be called jerky and be kept for an extended period of time out of refrigeration. I have made jerky for years and have tried both methods. It usually takes about 8 hours.
Can I build my own outdoor food dehydrator?
Its quite easy to build your own dehydrator, especially if you just want to make jerky. Its as simple as making a fire, then a rack to hang your meats over the top. Dehydrating fruits requires a little more finesse, but the reality is that if your oven temp goes low enough, you can just use that.
Can you put bacon in a dehydrator?
From Jeff at Jeff's Famous Jerky, who specializes in 4 flavors of gourmet bacon jerky. Cooking bacon from a raw state in your home dehydrator is dangerous because of the pathogenic bacteria that can survive by cooking at a low temperature. Most home dehydrators only reach 130-140 degrees. The USDA requires meat to be heated to 160-165 degrees depending upon the type of meat, before the dehydration process begins. This is the safety zone where pathogenic bacteria is put at bay. This is also why no one should buy jerky of any kind online that is not made in a USDA facility. USDA product will always have the USDA "bug" on the package that says it meets USDA inspection standards of safety. So, for bacon jerky made in a home dehydrator, the answer is to pre-cook it first and then dehydrate it. It is a lot of work to make any great tasting dehydrated meat snack, but it is worth it! Another note about bacon jerky.... it has less fat and less sodium that traditional pan-fried bacon because of the dehydration process.

Why is beef jerky so expensive?
The main reason is that all jerky is costly to make. Beef is about 60% water, so when it is dried most of the weight is evaporated. It takes about 2.5 Lbs of quality beef to make 1 Lb of jerky. Secondly, many jerky companies use expensive chemicals and preservatives when making their jerky, and they have a lot of waste just based on how they make it. I love beef jerky too, so here's the secret: Go to Walmart or Bass Pro Shops and buy a $40 dehydrator. Then go to your supermarket and buy meat ask the meat department to slice it super-duper thin for you. Marinate it overnight in whatever thrills you in the fridge and the next day put it in the dehydrator, give it 12 hours and voila! - you have a much healthier and better tasting jerky. I make my own out of chicken, turkey, salmon, beef, etc....
