Protein is central to human survival–you can’t live without it. And one of the least-expensive forms of protein in the American diet is chicken. As I mentioned in a previous post, food dehydration is one of the simplest ways to prepare food for long-term storage, as dehydrating it, by definition, removes all the water, which greatly extends food’s storage life. So to help you in your food prep efforts, I thought I’d post a few videos showing how to dehydrate chicken.

Having said that, don’t get hung up on the idea that only certain types of meat or poultry are amenable to dehydration.

Since we’re talking long-term storage of the chicken, I’m going to use a combination of three different methods of preserving it. While I could get away with less, by doing all three, I am increasing the chances that I will be able to store the prepared chicken for many years, without having to worry about it going bad in some way. ---CONTINUED---
