Jerkey Recipes
 

Bow opens tomorrow and I have HIGH hopes and aspirations.:D

So with all my lbs of venison I'll have to work with I want to make jerky in my smoker. I prefer a meatier spicy jerky rather than a dry stringy one and I'm just learning to use my smoker. Any good recipes y'all have ????

AO . . .I use the following for a spicy teriaki type jerky.

Soy sauce, terikai merinade, garlic powder, onion powder, ground chli pepper, cheyane pepper, Black pepper, salt, maple surup (sp?) and just a bit of olive oil. mix that up to suite your taste. marinate overnight mixing it a few times and leter rip.

Me and my boys live on the stuff till it's gone, doesn't take long.

Just ask Farmcntry for his "Cajun Bacon" recipe ,
it should make good jerky . Be careful not to overdry it ... ;)

Annie,
Would like to give you mine, (not that I would have to kill you or anything like that) but I go by smell and taste of the spice. In other words I dont make it the same twice. I put a little of this and a little of that.
Thing I will tell you
One never add dry spice after you soak your meat.
Two I always make jurkey and that means its DRY. Have tried the other way but if there is even the smallest amount of fat on it the jurkey can go ranced and make you very sick.
Three remove ALL FAT
Four I use a vacume sealer for my jerkey
Five You may start out with alot of meat but you will end up with just a little amount of Jerkey. I dont know what the % is from meat to jurkey but you loose alot. Good news is that most of the time it taste great
Good Luck
Rick
P.S.
Farmcntry what is your Cajun Bacon Recipe?
Thanks

Thanks Rick. Thinking I should practice on round steak when it comes up on sale and not waste any venison ! Good call on the fat. I did not know that. We just got a food saver and I love it. Do you ever have problems with it vacuming tight though? Guess I should watch the video. [&:]

The reciepe you want from Farm means copious amounts of beer and shine the night before, little to no sleep and then starting to cook up a mountain of bacon, turning green ( the secret ingredient)....burning it and starting over !. Poor guy, but he hung in there !:D
