so far so good-after 12 hrs on low heat nice good color and on the way to be jerky -had to pat the pieces of ham with a paper towel then put them back in the dehydrater on low with one layer of paper towel under them and now i just checked them and no oil under -when they are done ill run them through the food prosser to giind them to small chunks to be used in soups or cooking----remember its better to have and not need than need and not have

update ---- the ham loaf came out good you just have to in the middleof the prosses of drying is you put a layer of paper towels under the sliced meat to soak up the excess oil coming out of the meat --regular ham steaks dri better as you can trim any fat off it but ham lunch meat has a lot of fat in it but you can dri it it just takes longer and you might have to change the paper towels a couple of times but what the hay 5 lb block of ham lunch meat only cost me 7.00 and it came out better than i thought just longer to prosses----------remember its better to have and not need than need and not have
