Instructions

  1. 1

    Combine ingredients and thoroughly mix together.

  2. 2

    This is a dry marinade so there is no liquid.

  3. 3

    Sprinkle the spice mixture on the meat slices and work into the grain with your fingers.

  4. 4

    Cover and marinate overnight.

  5. 5

    Place trays in the oven and dry at 145 F for first 4 hours, then set oven 130 F until dry (4 to 8 hrs.).

  6. 6

    Jerky should be hard but not brittle.

  7. 7

    Blot up any fat that appears with paper towels. *For a chewy texture, slice the meat with the grain, or across the grain for more tender jerky.
