I just use a sealed box with a plastic trivett in the bottom, that way you don't have any worries about making a mess in your fridge, or sterilising anything other than the box.
Sounds good... But I hear you on the mess... Not quite the same, but DH is wanting to make his own Biltong, and I am struggling with where to place a box of rump steak to dry out... And not attract the dogs, or bugs, but remain at a good temp...
Ask a butcher for a piece of butcher's muslin for the bilton, then smear the outside of the beef with lard and lots of crushed peppercorns before wrapping tightly in the muslin and hanging up somewhere to dry.
The pepper will effectively repeal most bugs, so you just need to keep it out of reach of the dogs.
