Many folks would like to use their home range-oven for dehydrating a little quick jerky from time to time but have found that their kitchen stove ovens simply can`t be set below 200° F. Ideally, somewhere around 120°F to 140°F would be just fine for slowly drying jerky for 14 to 18 hours or thereabouts, depending how thick you slice it.
Well, if you are lucky enough to have access to a Kithen Aid™ oven, there is a way to precisely program this temperature for a specific time.
On Kitchen Aid ovens:
For 140° oven temp, press and hold "convection/bake" for several seconds. A light will come on. Press "Start".
For 100° oven temp, press and hold "baked good / convection" for several seconds. A light will come on. Press "Start".
For "Timed" Controls:
For delayed finish time, set start time and then press `end time` to set an advanced time of day when the food is expected to be done. It will automatically delay the cooking.
Best Wishes,

If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it probably needs more time on the grill!
