Matt's Jerky Recipe

Matt's Jerky Recipe

I use this recipe for all of my elk and venison jerky, as well as beef jerky, with excellent results. Freeze or refrigerate the jerky afterwards to prolong shelf life.

Ingredients

  • 3 pounds beef top round
  • 2/3 cup soy sauce
  • ¼ cup Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons liquid smoke flavoring
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 2 teaspoons chili powder
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
  • 2 teaspoons finely ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1
Freeze beef to make it easier to slice, about 20 minutes. Slice beef against the grain into strips about 1/4-inch thick.

Step 2
Whisk soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, liquid smoke, onion powder, chili powder, garlic powder, cayenne, and pepper together in a large bowl. Add beef strips. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator, mixing at least twice, 18 to 24 hours.

Step 3
Arrange beef strips on dehydrator trays. Dehydrate at 160 degrees F (70 degrees C) until dried, about 8 hours.

Cook’s Notes:

I use a Nesco(R) dehydrator.
