DAD'S JERKY MARINADE



Dad's Jerky Marinade image

My dad has been making beef jerky for about as long as I can remember. He started on an outdoor smoker before graduating to an indoor dehydrator. He has gotten my husband addicted to it. You can use any type of meat that you like. I usually look for large inexpensive roasts with as little fat and marbling as possible.

DAD'S BEST MARINADE



Dad's Best Marinade image

My dad has been making this for as long as I remember. He usually marinated a chuck roast or flank steak. We love it and I have used it on pork and chicken too. We like to marinate the cubed meat for kebabs and throw on some pineapple. I have also used pineapple juice in place of the water in this recipe and chopped fresh ginger is a good addition. We usually grill our meat for this recipe. I hope you enjoy! This works great on venision too!

Categories     main-dish

Time 4h30m

Yield 4 to 5 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

One 4-inch piece fresh ginger, cut into matchsticks
4 green onions, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 jalapeno, seeded and chopped
1 orange, zested and juiced, plus orange slices, for serving
One 10-ounce bottle teriyaki sauce
2 pounds Korean-style short ribs (beef chuck flanken cut into 1/3- to 1/2-inch-thick slices across the bones)
Toasted sesame seeds, for garnish
Kimchi, for serving

Steps:

  • In a large resealable bag, combine the ginger, half of the green onions, the garlic, jalapeno, orange zest and juice, teriyaki sauce and short ribs. Swirl around a few times to cover the ribs in the marinade. Marinate for at least 3 hours and up to overnight in the refrigerator. Midway thru, swirl the ribs again to ensure the marinade covers all.
  • Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Remove the ribs from the marinade and shake off any excess liquid; reserve the remaining marinade for the sauce. Grill the ribs until well caramelized and cooked to desired doneness, 5 to 7 per side. Remove to a serving platter.
  • Meanwhile, pour the marinade from the bag into a saucepan. Bring to a rapid boil over high heat and boil until reduced by half, at least 5 minutes.
  • Pour the sauce over the grilled ribs. Sprinkle with the remaining green onions, and garnish with sesame seeds and orange slices. Serve with kimchi.
