Many commercially prepared meat jerky contain sugar in the marinade. Making your own venison or beef jerky takes a bit of time but it is well worth it.

Time 8h10m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound boneless venison or beef
4 tablespoons coconut aminos (or tamari, or soy sauce)
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce (or homemade version)
1 tablespoon liquid smoke flavoring (provides a nice smoky flavor)
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon onion powder

Steps:

  • Slice meat into thin pieces (this is easiest to do if meat is still frozen). For a softer jerky, it's best to soak the meat slices in a brine solution for 24 hours to tenderize the meat and remove the blood.
  • In a large releasable plastic bag, combine soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, liquid smoke, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder and salt.
  • Place meat in, and close bag.
  • Refrigerate overnight. Knead occasionally, to evenly distribute marinade.
  • Preheat oven or dehydrator anywhere between 145 to 165 degrees F. If using regular oven, place a pan on the bottom of oven to catch drips, or line with aluminum foil.
  • Place meat on racks so that they do not touch each other, and dehydrate for 5 to 7 hours or until meat breaks when trying to bend.

JERKY RECIPE



Jerky Recipe image

Deer season is almost in - time to stock up on recipes! This is the recipe I grew up on. My mom always used it to make deer jerky. If you're watching your sodium - use low sodium soy sauce and omit the seasoned salt, it still comes out great!

Time 10h

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 - 4 lb meat
1 tsp garlic powder - (i use 1 tablespoon)
2 1/2 tsp onion powder
1 tsp black pepper - (i use fresh coarse ground and lots of it)
1/2 c soy sauce - (i use low-sodium dale's seasoning)
2 Tbsp liquid smoke - (i use hickory)
1 Tbsp seasoned salt - (i use lawry's)
2 tsp accent, quick tender, msg (you can omit if you like, sometimes i will use worcestershire sauce instead)

Steps:

  • 1. If using whole meat - Cut into long narrow strips, marinate in sauce for at least 2 hours. You can either weave the tops of the strips through bamboo skewers to hang from top rack in oven or lay directly on dehydrating tray. Bake at 200 degree for 3 - 4 hours. If you're not sure how done you want your meat, take one out, let cool and try it first.
  • 2. If you use ground meat - mix the sauce with the meat thoroughly. Let sit overnight in fridge before dehydrating. I usually cook a small piece of meat in a skillet before I dehydrate to make sure they are well flavored and not too salty. If it's too salty add more ground meat. I use a jerky cannon or blaster to make my strips. You can also roll out meat between wax paper or plastic wrap and then slice into strips. I use a dehydrator or my electric smoker w/o the wood chips. It usually takes me about 6-10 hours.
