Generously apply liquid smoke with pastry brush on pieces laid out flat
on large surface. Sprinkle on remaining ingredients generously but sugar
sparingly. Marinate in covered bowl 8 hours. Place on oven rack flat and
touching. Gas oven: have on pilot and oven light only. Electric: set at
100 to 125 degrees. Dry for 18 to 36 hours. Prop oven door open with knife.
Allan's Beef Jerky Recipe I start with 3-5 pounds of lean flank steak sliced 1/8-¼ inch thick.
My marinade is
1 cup red wine
1 cup teriyaki or soy sauce
1 cup Worcestershire
3/4 tsp. garlic powder
3/4 tsp. black pepper
3/4 tsp. white pepper
3/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
Add a few dashes of Liquid Smoke to top it off. Then I let it marinate for
about 24 hours or more. Then dry as usual. For hotter jerky I'll add a few
shots of pureed habernero pepper. For sweeter jerky, reduce the peppers
and add a little brown sugar. Contributed by Allan Secrest, absals@ix.netcom.com
