Make Your Own Beef Jerky

My family loves been jerky and has even made a bit ourselves. There are many recipes to make homemade jerky. Many of these recipes have been passed down generation to generation. Were you aware that earlier this week there was a day that celebrated the special fact of making, sharing and eating homemade jerky.



SIMPLE OVEN-BAKED BEEF JERKY RECIPE
1 pound of eye of round beef, sliced
3 ounces soy sauce or tamari
6 ounces water
2 teaspoons Lawry’s Seasoned Salt
1 teaspoon cracked black pepper

Whisk marinade ingredients in a large bowl. Place cut beef strips in a large bag or container and pour marinade over them, ensuring all strips are covered in the marinade. Seal the bag or cover the container and place in the refrigerator for 24 hours.
After 24 hours, preheat the oven to 175 degrees Fahreinheit.
Cover a baking pan/sheet with foil and place strips of beef in a single layer on the foil. Dry the beef for 12-15 hours in the oven at this temperature. (If you are going to be home, you can do this overnight.)
When the beef is dry to the touch (there should be no rebound, but the beef should not be brittle or burned), the jerky is ready to come out.

Refrigerate jerky in a sealed container for up to two weeks.

  2. This must be a healthier way of making beef jerky too. I could see it being a good party snack (esp Super Bowl!)

    I have never made my own jerky but this looks like it would be worth the try. Nothing better than eating something without extenders or preservatives!
