It had been years since I watched National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation so when it came on the other night, I popped a bowl of popcorn and sat down to watch it. I had forgotten how funny the turkey scene was and it inspired me to create this turkey jerky recipe. Consume within 3 days or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 30 days.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds ground turkey breast
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 tablespoon liquid smoke flavoring
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon pink curing salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon onion powder
- ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon ground dried sage
Directions
Step 1
Combine ground turkey, water, liquid smoke, kosher salt, pink salt, pepper, onion powder, paprika, garlic powder, and sage in a large bowl. Mix until evenly combined. Cover and refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight.
Step 2
Form as many sticks as you can fit on the racks of a dehydrator using a jerky gun.
Step 3
Set the dehydrator to 155 degrees F (68 degrees C).
Step 4
Cook for 2 1/2 hours. Unplug the dehydrator and remove the lid. Let jerky sit for 1 hour for final drying.
