BEEF OR VENISON JERKY RECIPE - (3.9/5)

Steps:

• Marinate meat overnight. Cook in food dehydrator or oven on lowest setting. Test jerky for dryness by cooling a piece. When cool it should crack when bent but not break and there should be no moist spots. Store in an air tight container at room temperature for up to two weeks, refrigerate up to three weeks or freeze. Note: The cooking time will vary depending on a few factors including humidity, the thickness of meat slices and temperature setting.

HOW TO MAKE DEER JERKY - VENISON JERKY RECIPE

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.

BEEF/VENISON JERKY

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients. Pour over meat and mix well. Put it in the fridge overnight. I use a dehydrator and a jerky gun to dry the stuff as I've found this is the best way to make jerky. Usually takes about 7 hours to dry.

SWEET AND SPICY VENISON JERKY

Steps:

• Whisk together the sugar, black pepper, onion powder, garlic salt, lemon juice, liquid smoke, paprika, hot pepper sauce, Worcestershire sauce, teriyaki sauce, and soy sauce in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Add the venison strips and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 24 hours. Mix the venison a few times as it marinates to ensure even absorption of the marinade.
• Remove the venison strips from the marinade and squeeze off excess. Discard the remaining marinade. Arrange the venison on the racks of a food dehydrator so that it does not overlap.
• Dry the venison on High until dry but still pliable, about 4 hours. The jerky should bend without breaking. Store the jerky in an airtight container or in a resealable plastic bag.
