can anyone recommend a good one? Would like to keep it under $100. Will primarily be used for drying hot peppers, some fruits, and beef/venison jerky.

I bought that one just a couple of weeks ago. Made a batch of jerky, it came out perfect. Load it up before you go to bed, turn it on, and the jerky will be done in the morning.
jerky for breakfast? full of win
...and when you buy the Ronco food dehydrator for only six easy payments of $19.95, we'll throw in the dial-o-matic food slicer absolutley free!
I think mine is a Nesco. Be forewarned...you'll use it a lot when you first get it and then it won't get used so much anymore 
i was told that about food processors as well but mine actually gets used fairly regularly (3-5 times a month).

I use this one from harbor freight. Just make sure to rotate the trays every couple hours to keep things even.

from what i've read in regards to dehydrators, no fan = no good.

Boooo. Poor taste. Very poor taste.
you know they're not supposed to be eaten, right? hence the poor tasteBoooo. Poor taste. Very poor taste.
and a little rubbery in the texture.
...hence the rotating of trays. But for $20, why not right. Mine still works. Use it at least once a month for jerky and drying mango's and watermelon. Made some teriyaki venison jerky last month. Lasted all of 2 days.
I'd rather spend an extra $40 so I can set it, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand forget it!
I have more cash tied up in kitchen/cooking stuff than bikes and skiing gear combinedI think mine is a Nesco. Be forewarned...you'll use it a lot when you first get it and then it won't get used so much anymore
Some gets used once a year if that. You gotta pay to play.
