Preparation

Step 1

Trim all fat off meat. Cut steak in to 4 inch strips. The steak should be about 1/2 inch thick. It's easier to cut meat partially frozen. Pound meat lightly, you don't want it too thin.

Add the remaining ingredients in a bowl, mix well. Add the steak strips into the marinade and mix well making sure as best possible the steak is fully covered. Cover and refrigerate overnight (8-hours).

Line cookie sheets with tin foil. Place steak strips on sheets, don't overlap meat.

Set oven at lowest temperature. (150-175°F).

Bake 6 hours, turning after three hours.

Jerky is done when meat is dried out, depending on your oven. So worth the wait, enjoy!
