Homemade Beef Jerky
Posted on 11/6/13 at 1:32 pm

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to make some homemade beef jerky? I would like to try it out on my smoker. I thought about a marinade of some sorts and let it smoke on the pit outside for a long period of time. Any thoughts on marinade or smoking techniques?

I think that Jerky should be individual to your taste...almost like gumbo. But I like to marinade mine for 2-3 days in a heavy dales/mores, mustard, and hot sauce based marinade. Then hit it with garlic powder, black pepper and red cracked pepper as I take it out if the marinade and lay it on the rack.
I keep it simple on the ingredients. But if you like it sweeter...then add some brown suga. If you like it to burn your arse...then use some use some red pepper...if you like it to have a spicy pickled taste then use a jar of jalapeño juice in your marinade..... I've tried a lot of varieties and I eat every last piece of every batch cause it's hard to mess up but my friends and family always like the simple route the most.

If you don't want to buy a dehydrator you can just user the oven toothpick method. Marinate the slices cut really thin with the spices you want.
Then, hang the slices on the oven racks with toothpicks. Put a drip ban below.
Turn your oven on lowest temp before you go to bed at night. Use a spatula to prop the oven door open to allow moisture to escape.
When you wake up, you've got beef jerky.

I made beef jerky years ago and it always turned out great.
Marinate the strips of meat as shown in other posts here.
But you don't need a smoker or a dehydrator. You can use an oven.
Simply pierce each strip with a tooth pick and use the pick to hang each strip on the wire rack of your oven. Place a drip pan underneath.
Then turn your oven on to the lowest possible temp and prop the door slightly open with a metal spoon or ladle. This is to allow moisture to escape.
Go to bed. You'll have beef jerky in the morning.
