Point the back of the car east in the morning, then at noon turn it around so the food faces west. When it is super hot I crack a downwind window, otherwise the moisture gets out when you open the car door to turn it around.
Juicy stuff like pineapples, tomatoes and peaches take sometimes three days to dry, so i lay parchment paper and another towel over the food when I have to use the car (and drive very carefully lol). Surprisingly, jerky has always been dry by the end of the first day! A few weeks ago I ate some 3 year old jerky and it tasted fine.
Last year I bought a dehydrator because I thought the car might be too hot and damaging nutrients. The dehydrator takes a lot longer than the car.

First cut the skin into bite size pieces.
Place on parchment paper on baking sheet.
Then bake the pork rinds in the oven at 325 degrees until crispy, about 1 1/2 hr to 2 hr..
Sprinkle with salt.
I have never dehydrated them at this stage though I see no reason not to.
If you want to skip the oven bake, boil the skin until tender then scrape off excess fat and dry them. Then place in dehydrator.

I love egg rolls. Do you make your own dough?
If so I would love to see the recipe.
