Acquiring your best beef jerky recipes depends on how well your meat was sliced. If you wanted to do it on your own, you must prepare the meat by putting it in the fridge for an hour before slicing it and after done make as thin slices as you can. But if you have no skills using knives, asked for butchers help and tell him instructions on slicing.

For the method, get a large container and mix the soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, liquid smoke, teriyaki sauce and dark corn syrup. And then, add the garlic powder, onion powder, and brown sugar and sesame seeds. Add also 1t worth of cayenne pepper. If you prefer it spicier, add more.

After the marinade is done, you can now put the meat in the container, mix it together and make sure that the marinade embraces the meat very well. Then put the container with the beef marinade in the fridge and leave it for at least one day.

Once the marinating process is done, dry your meat. In this method, you are using oven to dry your meat. First, you would have to cover the oven’s bottom part with an aluminum foil for it will be messy.

Place the meat in the racks of the oven one next to each other; it’s more recommendable to place your racks higher in your oven. Set the temperature at 70degrees Celsius.
