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

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.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: Flank steak or top round steak are good choices for beef jerky, as they are lean and have a good amount of flavor.
  • Slice the beef against the grain: This will help the jerky to be more tender and easier to chew.
  • Marinate the beef for at least 12 hours: This will help the jerky to absorb the flavors of the marinade and make it more flavorful.
  • Use a dehydrator or oven to dry the jerky: A dehydrator is the best option for making beef jerky, as it will dry the jerky evenly and prevent it from becoming tough. If you are using an oven, be sure to keep the temperature low (145-165°F) and dry the jerky for several hours, or until it is dry and brittle.
  • Store the beef jerky properly: Beef jerky can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks, or in the refrigerator for up to 6 months.

Conclusion:

Making beef jerky at home is a great way to enjoy a delicious and healthy snack. By following these tips, you can make beef jerky that is tender, flavorful, and easy to store. So next time you're looking for a healthy snack, give beef jerky a try!
