I have my meat marinating and I am about to cook it in the oven at the lowest heat possible (170 or 180 degrees).

My marinade is:

1/2 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp Liquid smoke
1 tsp red pepper flakes
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp sweet paprika

Those who have made some...how did you do it? How did it turn out?

My recipe wasn't that different, except I didn't have any liquid smoke. Used a dehydrator though, set it at 165 for about 5 hours.

Dude....jerky must have a metric shite ton of black pepper "for me". I want a pile of extra black pepper at the bottom of the ziplock that i can use on my fried eggs the next day!

Pretty much the same way, but used a dehydrator and let it run over night.

ETA: And I add a little bit of crab boil.

I've made jerky 5-6 times now using different recipes. It's never been better than average.

I thought about that after I zipped up the zip lock back...I am going to add fresh cracked black pepper when I put them in the oven.

I think I might let them sit over night and cook them tomorrow.

I combine wet and dry ingredients from Bass Pro and the Jerky store across the street. Let meat marinate for 12-18 hrs. Remove and dredge in honey put on smoker 175 degrees for 5 plus hours. When you can separate the meat and see white streaks in the meat its done. It takes between 5-7 hours.

I had the good fortune to meet someone who made it for a living. After becoming good friends he gave me his recipe.

Its more of a procedure than a recipe, and I would have to show you rather than explain it.
