Beef Jerky

Beef Jerky

Good morning all, on this North Florida, beautiful morning. The birds are singing and the Gatava/Silkworms are high in the trees while building their nests that look like spun silk.

There is an old saying that the fish are bedding up their beds now, in the ponds and lakes. What an excellent time to go fishing, right now! You could be pulling in the fish, I wish that I was.

Ok, on to the recipe for today. This is a homemade beef jerky that I have made for years and I must say that you just can not stop eating this stuff, after you get a taste of it. It is salty, so be warned.

Bottle of Moore’s Marinade Sauce Use 1/2 of the bottle.

Beef roast with as least fat as possible. Frozen but half thawed.

A sharp, long knife A Gallon Zip-lock-bag

I used to have a meat slicer to slice the meat thinly but it makes such a mess to clean up, so I have found that using a sharpened long bladed knife will do the slicing very nicely, just do not slice yourself!

Take the half frozen beef roast (any kind of roast). Slice it thin, but not paper thin. Put this in the gallon zip-lock bag and pour half of the bottle of Moore’s Marinade Sauce into the bag, also. Keep the left-over Moore’s in the fridge for another batch.

Put the bag in the refrigerator and flip it over through-out a time of 6 hours or overnight if you want it saltier. When ready to put this on a dehydrator, drain all the liquid of, using a colender/strainer and put on the trays of the dehydrator. My dehydrator is a stronger one so it takes 3 to 4 hours for my jerky to be done. The other dehydrator’s take like maybe 5 to 6 hours, I think. I can’t remember! I have had this $60 ( I think).one and it cuts the time in half for me. I have had this one for many years now. It was at Walmart.

When dry take off and cool down and store in a zip-lock baggie for however long that will hang around the house. Maybe a day or maybe two days. Enjoy!
