    used this recipe on ground deer meat. It was a great recipe. Everyone I shared the jerky with loved it. I made the mistake of buying seasoned tenderizer instead of plain and it really gave a great flavor… A++++

    Hey Everyone,
    This recipe is almost identical to my own, except that I don’t use black pepper, I use a small amount of Cayenne pepper instead. It gives it a better bite on the tongue. Plus, I don’t use tenderizer, because I grind my meat in a meat grinder and form strips and then dry them. They are more tender and easier to eat this way, therefore I don’t need to use tenderizer. I use regular table salt, cause it’s all salt, no matter what kind you by, it’s all salt. I haven’t ever try using paprika in my jerky. I don’t know what kind of taste that would incur in the meat, but I might give it a go, and see what it taste like.

    Used this recipe four times. First time I used a bowl to mix. From mix went directly to dehydrator. During cutting/mixing, marinade was turning into paste. After about 6 hours, the jerky was awesome! My first attempt at making beef jerky and it was great. Since then I have been pouring marinade in large ziplock bags with meat and marinating for 24 plus hours. I can’t seem to replicate the same taste as the first session. Go figure. I would recommend this recipe. Thanks for everyone’s posts, they helped.

    I make a similar version of this recipe.. I dont use tenderizer or the salt because i use dark soy wich is a llittle stronger than regular soy.. Also add cayenne and pepper flakes to it..

    I just made this exact version and it also tasted great!!
