Ozarks Style Jerky (Beef, Venison, Or Critter) - Low Carb

Ozarks Style Jerky (Beef, Venison, Or Critter) - Low Carb


1. Mix Soy Sauce, liquid smoke, minced garlic, and (optional hot sauce) in large bowl. Set aside.

2. Trim fat from beef. Discard.

3. Slice beef into thin slices about 1-inch by 2-inches by 1/8-inch thick is about as small as I would go. Thinner slices dehydrate quicker!

4. Add beef into marinate, stir, cover, and place in refrigerator.

5. Periodically, about once per hour, stir beef and marinate. Marinate for 3 (minimum) to "whatever" hours. Longer marinating time equals more flavor. After about 12 hours, there is minimal change in flavor.

6. Drain marinate from beef in colander.

7. Place marinated meat slices on dehydrator trays. Try not to overlap the meat. Plug in dehydrator and follow manufacturer’s instructions for drying time. (Convection dehydrators will require more time and trays will need to be changed. Forced air dehydrators may not require tray changes.).
