Need Good beef jerky recipes?

Question

We cannot find any really good beef jerky recipes. Can anyone help?

Answer 1

3 lbs London Broil
2/3 C Worcestershire sauce
2/3 C of soy sauce
1 tsp. of black pepper
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. onion powder
1 tsp. liquid smoke
2-3 tsp. Tabasco Sauce
2-3 tsp. crushed red peppers
2-3 tsp. sesame seeds

MOP
Mix all marinade ingredients together in a large (gallon size or larger) plastic zipper bag. Add sliced meat and refrigerate, turning and mixing every hour or two. Hearty meats like beef and venison should be marinated overnight

When ready to begin drying, place a sheet of aluminum foil on the bottom of the oven to aid in cleanup. Drain meat in a colander and pat dry with paper towels (the drier the better at this point). Set oven at lowest temperature setting and carefully place meat slices directly onto oven racks. Leave the oven door open a crack to allow moisture to escape.

Drying times vary due to oven differences and meat size. Perfect jerky is firm and dry and not at all spongy. However, if your jerky is so dry it breaks in two easily, it's probably over-dried.

Cooks Note: The recipe above is enough for about 3 pounds of meat, which will dehydrate down to about 16-18 ounces (Yow! Now you know why it's so expensive to buy Beef Jerky.)

HOPE THIS HELPS!
ENJOY!!!!!!!!!

Answer 2

I don't have a dehumidifier, but someone once told me that if you set your oven to 200 degrees and leave the door cracked and cook thin beef (seasoned to taste) you get the same thing.....

I tried it one time 10 years ago and made good dog treats, but not jerky....It's time to try again...

Answer 3

Denise, you gotta experiment until you find a marinade that flavors your jerk beef to your satisfaction. You can marinate your thinly-sliced beef in any of a number of commercially bottled sauces such as Teriyaki sauce. Try A-1 Bold, too. There's a wide variety of meat sauces available at your grocer's; try 'em all if you have to.

Answer 4

The first pix looks like bone-in round steak, with the bone removed before drying.
