Deer (Venison) Jerky





1 lb venison


1 teaspoon liquid smoke


1 tablespoon A-1 Steak Sauce


1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce


1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper


1/2 teaspoon salt


1/2 teaspoon onion powder


1/2 teaspoon garlic powder


1/4 cup soy sauce


1/4 cup whiskey, i like seagram's 7 (optional)





Take your meat to the local butcher and have it cut thin.


You can do this yourself by semi-freezing your meat then cut it into 1/4-inch strips.


Note: meat cut with the grain will be chewy, and against the grain will be tender.


Combine everything but the meat in a large bowl and stir well.


Marinate meat over night in the refrigerator, then drain.


To use a dehydrator place meat on racks, do not overlap, and let dry for 24-36 hours.


To use an oven, preheat to 150-degrees then place meat on cookie sheets without overlapping for 8-10 hours.


Turn at least once during drying.


They are ready when the jerky bends without breaking.


Let cool, seal tight, and refrigerate for long-term storage.

Oven Deer Jerky





2 to 3 lbs. lean deer or beef meat, sliced 1/8 or 1/4 inch thick


1 1/2 cups of soy sauce


1/2 cup worchestshire sauce


1 1/2 oz. liquid smoke


3 Tbls. Lawry Seasoning Salt


2 Tbls. fine black pepper


2 oz. hot sauce





Mix all ingredients to make sauce.





Put meat in sauce and let set 3 to 4 to 12 hours.





When ready to cook spread oven racks as far apart as they can be and put tin foil over the bottom rack to catch the drippings.





Hang the meat strips from the top rack by sticking toothpicks through the edge of the meat.





Set oven at 200 degrees F. and leave the door slightly open so the moisture can escape.





Let the meat cook to your preference of chewy or crispy jerky. I generally cook mine approximately 5 hours.





Preparation Time: 5 hours

(*-*)Whats the best way to make deer jerky?
200 degrees with the over door ajar for 4 hours
I just got through doing this!


I do use garlic powder or salt, but you would not have to it's just a matter of taste. I use coarse black pepper, Morton's tender quick salt or kosher salt or both, liquid smoke.


Some people like to add soy sauce, but I prefer not.


I do like a small amount of whostershire sauce.


I have been making this stuff for years.
i like!





use a homemade spice rub of your liking, take thin strips cut across the grain to prevent chewiness, cover in spices let sit overnight.. place in a dehydrator or low low oven 200 degrees and dehydrate until done..





Have fun..
Im actually making buffalo jerky as we speak!








I marinated the raw meat for 24 hours beforehand in a thick teriyaki sauce, course pepper and some crushed red pepper flakes.





Then, I set it on a cookie rack, and place it in an 180 degree oven.. I'm in hour 5 of roasting.. and it's coming out quite nicely... I'll probably give it another hour or two.





You could probably just season it with salt and pepper and would still be good.. I like the taste of deer very much, anyways.





Hope my rambling helps :)
