Honey & Lemon Beef Jerky image

This is a delicious marinade for beef jerky. The lemon juice tenderizes the meat but doesn't necessarily make it taste "lemony". Also, instead of the usual flank steak, I used the 1/4-inch sirloin slices usually packaged as "fajita beef" or "stir-fry beef". It's lean and saves on slicing time. In my oven it finished drying in about 6-1/2 hours at 180 degrees, but check after around 5 hours just to be safe.

Time 18h

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 lbs very lean sirloin beef, sliced 1/4 inch thick (the type packaged as "fajita beef" or "stir-fry beef")
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup soy sauce or 1/2 cup tamari soy sauce
4 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Combine garlic, honey, lemon juice, soy sauce, salt and pepper, and marinate steak strips in this overnight in a plastic zipper bag.
  • The next day, cover oven rack beneath with foil for easy clean-up.
  • Preheat oven to 180 degrees F.
  • Place slices on a baking rack, prop oven door slightly with an oven mitt to allow humidity to escape, and dry meat on racks.
  • In my oven, the process took about 6-1/2 hours.
  • Check meat after 5 hours; it could take as long as 7 hours.
  • Blot any grease spots that may come up.

This recipe is not worth your time. There are much better beef jerky recipes out there.

I tried this recipe and it was a complete disaster. The jerky was tough and chewy.

I'm not sure about this recipe. It seems like it would be too sweet for my taste.
