I am a beef jerky lover. I noticed that Recipezaar does not have too many choices and when I look for ones using Google, it is overwhelming to find one out of millions.....So I decided to create my own and let me tell you...this is the best jerky I have ever had and am glad I can share it with all of you. Plus, this was made in a conventional oven! Please let me know your thoughts by commenting after you make it. Thank you.

Time 6h20m

Yield 3 lbs

Number Of Ingredients 16

Ingredients

5 lbs beef flank steak (or cut of your choice, just ensure you trim the fat)
2 cups Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 cups teriyaki sauce
3 teaspoons liquid smoke
1 cup soy sauce
4 teaspoons onion powder
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon cayenne powder
4 teaspoons black pepper
1 tablespoon sea salt
1 1/4 tablespoons red pepper flakes
4 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon maple syrup
3 bamboo skewers
aluminum foil

Steps:

Flash freeze beef for 20 minutes on cookie sheet during ingredient mixture.
Mix ingredients in extra large bowl with whisk until completely blended.
If beef is more than one inch thick, slice across to create equal thickness.
Cut beef between 1/8 - 1/ 4 inch thick slices, in addition to trimming as much fat off the meat as possible.
Incorporate beef into ingredients to cover.
Marinate beef overnight.
Pat dry beef slices and skewer beef onto bamboo, ensuring small space between slices for thorough dryness and leaving one inch on each end.
Hang beef skewers across oven rack so beef hangs freely.
Cover entire oven rack with skewers of meat.
Place aluminum foil on oven rack #2 at very bottom of oven to help catch drippings.
Set oven to lowest temperature (170 degrees in my case) and leave door ajar on hinge, letting beef sit for approximately 5-6 hours or until dry.
Check beef a few times throughout to ensure it is not actually baking, but simply drying out.
Once finished,
Let beef skewers rest for 10 minutes after drying, and then remove skewers from oven rack and let sit on tray until cool.
Remove beef strips from skewers and store them in an airtight container.

This is great as a sauce, glaze or marinade, and everyone always raves about it. You can substitute any pepper in place of the habanero if you'd like, but it's not too spicy with it. Enjoy!

Tips:

Choose the right cut of meat: For best results, use a flank steak, skirt steak, or sirloin steak. These cuts are tender and flavorful, and they cook quickly in the teriyaki marinade.
Slice the meat thinly: This will help the marinade penetrate the meat more easily and ensure that it cooks evenly.
Use a good quality teriyaki sauce: Look for a sauce that is made with soy sauce, mirin, sake, and brown sugar. You can also make your own teriyaki sauce at home.
Marinate the meat for at least 30 minutes: This will give the marinade time to penetrate the meat and flavor it.
Cook the meat over high heat: This will help to caramelize the teriyaki sauce and create a delicious crust on the meat.
Serve the meat with your favorite sides: Rice, noodles, or vegetables are all great options.

Conclusion:

Teriyaki is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you are a fan of beef, chicken, or fish, there is a teriyaki recipe out there for you. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give teriyaki a try.
