Pepper-Style Jerky




Source of Recipe


Redraspberry Girl


List of Ingredients




5 lbs lean meat
2 tablespoons salt
1 teaspoon curing salt
1 teaspoon smoke flavoring
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons coriander seed, ground
2 teaspoons garlic powder
5 cups ice water
coarse-ground pepper to taste

Recipe



Cut away as much fat/tallow as possible from the jerky meat. The leaner the better.
Place the trimmed meat in the freezer for 2 to 3 hours , or until the meat is slightly frozen; remove from freezer..
Slice the meat into 1/4" to 38" thick slabs (at this point a protective glove is advised to help prevent accidents).
Slice the meat slabs into 1/4 to 3/8-inch thick strips.
Combine 5 lbs. of met strips and all remaining ingredients (except coarse-ground black pepper) in an ample size, non-metallic brining vessel; stir/mix well.
Refrigerate mixture/meat overnight (6 to 10 hours) to cure; continuing to stir periodically.
Next day, remove the cured jerky strips from the liquid brine and spread evenly on drying racks. Do not rinse strips!
Sprinkle each piece generously with coarse-black pepper to taste.
Dry strips at 150 to 170 degrees in oven, smoker or dehydrator (checking occasionally for doneness) until jerky reaches desired degree of dryness; could be 5 to 24 hours depending on drying method used
