I believe they all have non-paleo chemicals. Why not buy a dehydrator? A
$30 one will suffice. No marinade is needed, just trim off excess fat and
slice. Now I do use a meat slicer, and that did cost $150. But you may be
able to find one at garage, or better, estate sales.

Maybe. My favorite is more complicated. It's precooked chicken in Thai
Kitchen coconut milk (regular and not low-fat), which some Thai Kitchen red
curry paste. Then I microwave it at work. I do have a cafeteria, so I buy
some vegetable from the steam table and mix in.

Don.
