Phil's Fabulous Beef Jerky

The Milocat's Note:

My brother used to make beef jerky and sell it at school. I loved it so much, I would sneak into his room and steal some pieces, since he would make me pay to eat some! This beef jerky is salty, peppery, and a little sweet-- DELICIOUS!

This was the first jerky recipe I had ever tried. We love it so much, I immediately turned around and made a 2nd batch! Thanks.
