I just found a six year old email where I typed out the instructions for making my world famous homemade beef jerky to send to a friend so... I wanted to share here if anyone is interested!



Lean sirloin roast trimmed and sliced against the grain in 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick strips. If you like a chewier (more traditional) experience, you can certainly slice it with the grain, but against is better IMHO.

Kroger "Beef for stir fry" is already sliced and works perfectly, but the butcher can slice a roast if desired. 

Marinate for at least two days, then dry strips in dehydrator at 165 degrees for min of 3, but not more than 5 hours.  I have found that around the four hour mark is best personally, but it will vary depending on the thickness of your strips. 

​​​​​​Allow to cool between paper towels, and store loosely in tupperware dish. I've read that it's best to eat it all up in a week, but around here a batch will only last a couple of days. I don't use any curing nitrates so I personally wouldn't go more than week in a stored container on the counter. If you want to keep it longer, I would definitely refrigerate or even freeze it for future use.

Marinade mix

1 cup Kikkoman Teriyaki sauce (orange label)

1/3 cup Dale's sauce (regular, not low sodium)

3 shakes of Louisiana hot sauce (to taste)

3 shakes Worcestershire sauce

1 shake of Liquid Smoke (it's easy to over do this. 1 shake is plenty)

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp chili powder

1 tsp light brown sugar

Whisk ingredients well and pour over meat strips in a gallon size storage bag and place in refrigerator for a couple of days. I have found that one day isn't quite enough, and more that two tends to be too salty. Also, is best to separate each piece while placing the strips in the bag to ensure the seasoning gets to all the surfaces.

As an option in the marinade, you can add 1/4 to 1 tsp of a good hot pepper powder like Carolina Reaper or Ghost pepper for an added kick. It will make it HOT, so keep that in mind. Enjoy!
 
 

when I got my dehydrator it was noted anything higher than 105 degrees removes 50% or more of the nutrients of the food being dehydrated and it is better to set it at under 105 and longer time which depending on the thickness can take upto 24 hours.

the new freeze drying equipment when properly packaged last upto 25 years. I am still waiting for the prices to lower before I go that route.

the marinating process helps prevent the meat spoiling during the dehydrating.

Time doesn't move, and equally evolving never leaves what exists same as it arrived to existing here this rotation of the planet. Intellectual relative time against event horizons perpetually balancing outcomes lasting this rotation compares total sum evolving against each change in population arriving one great great grandchild each generation gap of ancestral lineages so far.

I describe how compounding chromosomes change population where each reproduction lives in a specific generation gap as currently alive and have an algorithm that works in reverse as well as it doe to when next great great grandchild is born uniquely to each ancestry that conceived it an average of 9 months ago.

Most babies born this rotation were conceived in late sep. or early oct. of 2023.

Don't know exact rotation I will die yet but I understand how evolving works each rotation I have been alive since my conception in late jan or early feb. the year I was born 9 months later.

I existed 0-9 months developing between several stages of gestation like every other reproduction native to this atmosphere. before I became one child adapting in space since. 1 of 3 surviving siblings as my mom had several miscarriages and premature births prior to and after I was born.

Seems I have an exception brain to everyone minding social exemptions of living in plain sight.

You can fake it until you make it a reality, but reality is never the actual evolving process in plain sight personally experienced by each ancestor occupying time each next rotation becomes today between yesterday and tomorrow by human decree over some imaginary line in the pacific ocean stretching north pole to south pole called midnight every rotation of the planet ancestors keep changing shape since formed on the rotation of their specific conception.

Every 24 hours humanity gains 3 minutes and 4 seconds relative time to where every 4 years it has to add February 29 to keep intellect in sync with instinctive evolving now where genetics actually does eternally separate each ancestor native to this atmosphere you won't admit is absolutely correct.

the core secret to every reality each generation historically played out on the world stages of pretending nobody can know the actual process keeping people uniquely alive each rotation forward today.

Now this thread is about making beef jerky, I gave information I learned when I bought my dehydrator wasn't the same as the op said he baked his. Hell electric ovens can be set at 175 F and it one has the converection option, they can make beef jerky without a dehydrator.
