Beef Jerky Original #3

Ingredients

  • 2 lb eye round beef
  • 4 oz soy sauce
  • 2 oz Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 oz Tamari soy
  • 2 oz honey
  • ¼ cup Texas BBQ rub
  • ¼ teaspoon Prague Powder #1
  • Water, as needed

Directions

Trim roast of surface fat and silver skin. Freeze roast 45 minutes to an 1 hour before slicing. Slice across the grain into 5mm (about ⅜ in) thick rounds. Split rounds in half, along the fat seam. Trim fat from edges.

Whisk together remaining ingredients, topping up liquid measure to 2 cups with water.

Combine meat and marinade in a gallon freezer bag, and expel any air. Gently massage the contents of the bag to distribute marinate evenly. Place the sealed bag in a bowl to catch any leaks, and refrigerate overnight to 24 hours, massaging occasionally to redistribute marinade.

After marinating, transfer meat to a wire rack, blotting off excess marinade with paper towels. Dehydrate in a food dehydrator, smoker or oven at 165°F until beef is stiff and bends without cracking,8 to 10 hours.
