I have a reciept I have worked out over the years,everyone seem to really like it.
Ingreidents are:
Beef without fat will work also:
three and 1/2 lbs. venison sliced thin,no thicker than 3/8" with (ALL) the fat removed.fat will cause it to go bad in a few days.
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup worchestershire
2 tsp. accent
2 tsp. lawyers season salt
1 tsp. garlic powder
2 tsp. onion powder
2/3 tsp. black pepper
2 Tbs honey

in a glass or stainless bowl mix all ingreidents,(the onion and garlic will not all dissolve).place meat into the mixture,stir well to cover.put in refridgarator over night.stir a couple times making sure the meat is covered with the marinade.
After overnight soaking lay on racks and put into dehydrator for about 8 hrs. or till the right dryness occurs.(time depends on the dehydrator you have.)

remember keep your back to the sun, your knife sharp, and your powder dry.

To start off make a simple batch.I like mine cut thin , less than a quater inch.Put twice the amount of salt and pepper that you would use on your food.After nine hours take a taste,if you want crunchy leave for a couple more hours.Now you can start experimenting by adding one ingredient at a time.
