Homemade Beef Jerky

I got tired of sifting through all the recipe's that are on this website so I decided to make my own recipe.

• Ready In: 11 hrs
• Serves: 1
• Yields: 1 lb jerky

Ingredients

• 1  lb boneless round steak (I like a little bit of fat but definitely not too much) or 1  lb  flank steak (I like a little bit of fat but definitely not too much)
• 3⁄4 tablespoon liquid smoke
• 4  tablespoons soy sauce
• 4  tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1  tablespoon ketchup
• 2⁄3 teaspoon pepper (more pepper for hotter jerky)
• 1⁄4 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1⁄4 teaspoon  onion salt
• 1⁄2 teaspoon salt

Directions

1. Cut the meat to the thickness desired (I prefer just under 1/4 inch. Saturate the meat for at least 2 - 24 hours in the marinade and place it on your dehydrator. After about 3-4 hours rotate the beef jerky. When the meat bends like a willow tree it is probably about ready. (Usually 6-8 hours in a dehydrator).
