• Beef jerky recipe
• Marinating beef jerky
• Oven drying beef jerky
• Top round beef preparation

Ingredients

• Worcestershire sauce
• soy sauce
• black pepper
• smoked paprika
• cayenne
• red chili flakes
• garlic powder
• onion powder
• honey
• a couple pounds top round beef

What it concludes

• Top round is the best cut for beef jerky because it is relatively lean with some marbling and the butcher can cut wide, thin slices.
• A 3 to 4 hour marinade is preferred over a 24-hour marinade for this beef jerky recipe.
• Oven drying beef jerky at 175 degrees F for 3 to 4 hours yields jerky that looks and feels like old shoe leather and is superior in taste and texture to store-bought jerky.
