Who doesn't like beef jerky? VEGANS! But that's OK. This thread is probably not for them. I'm going to share my successes and failures as I attempt to craft the greatest beef jerky known to mankind. Others are welcome to share recipes, photos, stories, unrelated philosophical struggles, opinions about the general state of blockchain, or whatever suits them. I'll keep posting jerky stuff.
The first recipe I'm trying to dial in is kind of an homage to the Chinese food classic steak-on-a-stick. I'm not going for an exact clone, just something that hints at that flavor and tastes great.
Step one:Cut a hole in the box. Make the dry seasoning mix. I took all the stuff below (in this case, "parts" was measured in tablespoons) (yes, I should have gone by weight. STFU. It's a start, OK?)
Step three: Mix 3/4 cup Teriyaki sauce and 3/4 cup Worcestershire sauce together in a big bowl. Add 1/8th cup of the jerky mix, 1/2 tsp Cure #1.
Step four: The the marinade and the steak into a big plastic bag and leave it in the fridge 24 hours
Step five: load that into the dehydrator
Step six: take it out when it's done
