Ingredients

5 pounds sliced venison. mine came out just right. not to thin and not too thick. make sure they are all the same thickness or as close as you can get so get done at the same time. next time i might partially freeze the meat before slicing.
MARINADE
1 c worcestershire sauce
1/4 c soy sauce
2 Tbsp canning salt
3 Tbsp fine grind black pepper
1 Tbsp garlic powder
1 Tbsp onion powder
1 1/2 tsp mortons tender quick curing mix

Steps:

1. Combine the marinade with the meat. allow to marinate for 24 hours.
2. Remove from fridge and place the strips on paper towels. Gently squeeze as much moisture as possible out of the meat
3. Preheat oven to 170 degrees
4. Line the bottom oven rack with tin foil. Insert toothpics into the ends of the strips of marinated venison and hang each one from the top rack.
5. LEAVING THE DOOR OPEN SLIGHTLY (for air circulation and to let moisture escape) cook the strips for 4 to 6 hours until they are thoroughly dry but not brittle or mushy. when you bend the meat it should seperate but not break.
6. Store in airtight container or resealable bags!!! ENJOY!! You can also make this jerky in your dehydrator. following the manufacture directions

Ingredients

2 (1/2 pound) venison steaks
2 teaspoons cracked black pepper
2 teaspoons coarse salt
1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Steps:

Season venison steaks with pepper and salt. Melt butter in a small saucepan over low heat; skim off solids (the 'milky' substance that forms) and discard. Transfer butter to a large skillet and heat over high heat.
Saute venison steaks in skillet for about 3 minutes each side, then reduce heat to medium and cook for about 10 minutes each side for rare steaks, 15 minutes each side for medium. Remove from heat and let stand for 2 to 3 minutes before slicing into long strips. Serve immediately.
