These roll-ups are a fun twist on regular jerky — thin slices of beef wrapped around sweet potato strips and dried together. The sweet potato caramelises slightly during drying, creating an irresistible sweet-savoury combination. They're a bit more work than plain jerky, but the result is a premium treat worth the effort.
