Yeah with dehydrating meat it works best to use meat that has been pressured cooked. All of the canned or packaged meat (turkey, chicken, ham, and tuna) is pressure cooked. You just have to look for low sodium products though.

If you're going to dehydrate meat, it's best to chop it into the smallest possible bits. You lose that meaty texture when you're chewing, but it rehydrates much faster.

Personally, I rarely bother dealing with dehydrated meats - rather I'll make everything else up, and carry along foil pouches of chicken and tuna. Those foil pouches are the greatest invention evar - all the convenience of canned meat, but without the work or weight. Smoked salmon is an excellent, albeit pricey, choice as well.

In fact, any smoked fish is an awesome choice to take along - if you've got a smoker it's not hard to prepare it and seal it up tight. Should keep unrefrigerated no problem if done right.
