Recipe Introduction
I use this mostly for the basic recipe, but feel free to try the others.
Basic Jerky
2 1/2 to 3 lbs beef or lamb, well-trimmed.
I have used flank steak, rump, chuck- almost every cut. Haven't tried filet mignon...yet. Poultry and pork are not recommended for jerky because of the possibility of trichinosis disease. (You can marinate thin _cooked_ slices of turkey to dehydrate). These marinades will flavor up to 3 lbs of meat, for a more intense flavor (higher carbs per piece), double the recipes but keep added salt to 1/2 tsp. As your jerky dries, remove oils with a soft paper towel. When done it should crack but not break when bent. It has never taken more than 12 hours for my jerky to be done- usually closer to 10 hrs. Store your jerky in the refrigerator for up to three months.
