So I have my JJD and I've gotten into jerky big time. I've been making about 7 lbs each weekend (pre-cook weight.) That's 1 batch Saturday and 1 batch Sunday. This never makes it past Tuesday :) I have everyone hitting me up for jerky all the time!
I just received the Side Rail Assembly #2 ( http://www.smokin-it.com/product-p/m3sra.htm ) and 5 more shelves, so I'm about to more than double my output!
My question to the jerkymakers - does anyone know if this will significantly increase my drying time? So far I've consistently done batches of 3.5 lbs. That takes me 6-8 hours. I'm wondering what I can expect if I up that 7 lbs.
As always, any insight is appreciated. Thanks all!

You might have to do some experimenting on your own. Just don't crowd the product and maintain good air flow.

I don't think it will significantly lengthen the dry time, as long as there is room for good airflow. Let us know how it works for you!
