Jerky is a food item in Tinkers' Construct. There are several types of jerky, types being: Beef, Bacon, Fish, Chicken, and Monster. Mutton Jerky can also be made if a mod is added which has an item registered in the Forge Ore Dictionary as "Mutton" (ex., Pam's HarvestCraft, Better Foods Mod, etc.)
Obtaining[]
You can get Jerky by placing raw meat on a Drying Rack by right clicking on it, and then waiting five minutes. Then right clicking when the meat is completely dried.
Advantages[]
Jerky has the same hunger-replenishment as its cooked counterparts, but has more saturation value. Additionally, Monster Jerky (jerky-fied rotten flesh) doesn't cause the hunger debuff.
Trivia[]
Monster Jerky may be a reference to Don't Starve, a game made by Klei Entertainment, more especifically Monster Jerky, as they share the same name and can be obtained on a similar way, but their appearance differ; as the TS Monster Jerky is brownish-orange and the DS Monster Jerky is purple.
