The thing you must watch out for is low oxygen low acid environments. When stuff goes bad in an oxygen rich environment.... You know it's off. But botulism has no smell or taste. And it is the toxin that kills you not the actual bacteria so cooking the food that's been contaminated won't remove the toxins.

I dehydrate all kinds of stuff (not claiming to be a pro) and never got sick knock on wood. If you use anything it's salt on jerky. From mushrooms to huckleberries to fish and meat. Get rid of the water and be safe. Also been pressure canning for years, mainly game, but yes you have to follow all the safety protocols for canning things that are not acidic or salted. I learned from a long deceased granny, back in time when there was no electricity. Pickled green beans, corn and okra... Dot dot dot. Candied salmon jerky is probably my favorite
