THE BEST TERIYAKI BEEF JERKY



The Best Teriyaki Beef Jerky image

I am a beef jerky lover. I noticed that Recipezaar does not have too many choices and when I look for ones using Google, it is overwhelming to find one out of millions.....So I decided to create my own and let me tell you...this is the best jerky I have ever had and am glad I can share it with all of you. Plus, this was made in a conventional oven! Please let me know your thoughts by commenting after you make it. Thank you.

Time 6h20m

Yield 3 lbs

Number Of Ingredients 16

5 lbs beef flank steak (or cut of your choice, just ensure you trim the fat)
2 cups Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 cups teriyaki sauce
3 teaspoons liquid smoke
1 cup soy sauce
4 teaspoons onion powder
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon cayenne powder
4 teaspoons black pepper
1 tablespoon sea salt
1 1/4 tablespoons red pepper flakes
4 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon maple syrup
3 bamboo skewers
aluminum foil

Steps:

  • Flash freeze beef for 20 minutes on cookie sheet during ingredient mixture.
  • Mix ingredients in extra large bowl with whisk until completely blended.
  • If beef is more than one inch thick, slice across to create equal thickness.
  • Cut beef between 1/8 - 1/ 4 inch thick slices, in addition to trimming as much fat off the meat as possible.
  • Incorporate beef into ingredients to cover.
  • Marinate beef overnight.
  • Pat dry beef slices and skewer beef onto bamboo, ensuring small space between slices for thorough dryness and leaving one inch on each end.
  • Hang beef skewers across oven rack so beef hangs freely.
  • Cover entire oven rack with skewers of meat.
  • Place aluminum foil on oven rack #2 at very bottom of oven to help catch drippings.
  • Set oven to lowest temperature (170 degrees in my case) and leave door ajar on hinge, letting beef sit for approximately 5-6 hours or until dry.
  • Check beef a few times throughout to ensure it is not actually baking, but simply drying out.
  • Once finished,
  • Let beef skewers rest for 10 minutes after drying, and then remove skewers from oven rack and let sit on tray until cool.
  • Remove beef strips from skewers and store them in an airtight container.

BEST BEEF JERKY

Time P1DT6h10m

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 pounds beef brisket
1 ½ cups thick teriyaki sauce
¾ cup soy sauce
¾ cup Worcestershire sauce
¼ cup dark corn syrup (such as Karo®)
¼ cup liquid smoke flavoring
3 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon onion powder
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Place beef brisket in the freezer for 1 hour to make slicing easier.
  • Place brisket on a flat work surface. Slice on the grain into the thinnest possible strips, about 1/4-inch-thick.
  • Place beef strips in the bottom of a large bowl or container. Pour in teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, corn syrup, liquid smoke, brown sugar, sesame seeds, garlic powder, honey, onion powder, and cayenne pepper. Mix well until beef is evenly coated and submerged. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 24 hours.
  • Remove beef and pat dry using paper towels. Place beef in a single layer on the trays of a dehydrator machine. Cook at 155 degrees F (68 degrees C), or according to manufacturer's instructions, until dry and firm, yet slightly pliable, about 5 hours.
  • Leave beef out in the air to cool until dry; the longer you leave it out, the drier it will get.

Time P1DT6h20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 teaspoons salt
9 tablespoons light brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
3 teaspoons onion powder
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
3 teaspoons dry mustard
1 cup red wine vinegar
1 cup ketchup
1 tablespoon liquid smoke
3 lbs london broil beef or 3 lbs flank steaks, sliced into very thin strips

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients (except the meat) until combined.
  • Add meat that has been thinly sliced (the meat is easier to slice when its half frozen) and marinade 24-48 hours, refrigerated.
  • Remove from marinade, disguarding excess.
  • Place onto food dehydrator trays, you'll know its done when it cracks when bent but does not break.
  • I have never "over dehydrated" my jerky, I always feel its better over dried than under dried. Mine usually takes about a day and a half to be fully done. Rotate trays for even dehydration.

DOC'S BEST BEEF JERKY



Doc's Best Beef Jerky image

I have been making jerky for years. This is my recipe concocted by trial and error. Everyone who has tried it says it is the 'best jerky' they have ever had! My dehydrator is designed for jerky. It takes me about 4 hours to dry the meat. This could also be done in the oven or using other dehydrators. Please check your manual for correct times as each machine is different. I hope you enjoy this jerky as much as me and my family do.
