I have made this recipe exactly (except I let the meat marinate longer, too long actually) with the box fan and A/C filters. It turns out great and does not have that 'cooked' taste from jerky made in dehydrators or ovens that use heat. I think Alton states in the show, commercial jerky is not made by using heat. It makes the jerky taste different, and I prefer his method and commercial jerky to any 'heated' product I have tried.

Yes, keep the oven door cracked just a bit, like you are using the broiler. I set the oven to 170.
