I've had lamb, and chicken also.
Goes well with beer, if done properly it's actually very good, and ultra chewy, keeps you going for some time.
I myself recently had some REAL, freshly made jerky from one of the farmers out by my dads place...sadly though, the store bought pre packaged stuff doesn't come close, however, either is quite good for a beer snack, road trips...etc.
If you're going brand name, all I can suggest is "Nobbys", from the same company that does nuts and things...assuming of course, that's available to you.
If not, well, have fun trying many a package of overpriced, substandard crap...you'll eventually find a good one.

You can buy a unit that prepares jerky at home quite cheaply, some of which are also excellent for preparing tomatoes and fruit.

Was reading up on Jerky a little while ago, I'm gona have a go at making some sometime. I don't think I'll go the whole hog, and buy a unit though....cheers for the links. I'll buy a smallish beef joint, cut it into strips, season, then lay on a tray and do it in the oven for a while, and see how it goes.

btw, I've seen Nobbys Nuts down the shops, so I'll have a look out for their jerky.
