ink face Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 I just went and picked up a couple pounds or flank steak that's in the freezer, a box fan, some air filters, and all the marinade ingredients. This is my first time making beef jerky, and was wondering if any of the other ch.0 folks were in on the jerky game. If so, any tips for flavor/drying times. Also just a spot to show off home batches, basically just an appreciation of all things jerky. Flicks to follow once I get a little further into the process. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tavaruawon Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Oh fuuuuuuu... Beef jerky & Deer jerky. This the marinade that I fucks with lately- soy sauce honey garlic ginger sesame oil crushed red pepper white pepper It's kind of an azn spin on things, but it's really good. Let the meat marinate overnight at room temp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ink face Posted July 1, 2011 Author Share Posted July 1, 2011 yeah progression flicks will start once i pull the slab out of the freezer. Also yeah Tav, that's pretty similar to the marinade i was thinking, but substituting ginger and sesame oil, with hot sauce and worcestershire sauce. Also, liquid hickory smoke.

Tavaruawon Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Sriracha goes well up in that mix too. You can brush the sesame oil on kind of lightly, like right after the meats fully dried or whatevs... bomb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimes Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 i've used a dehydrator before. that works pretty good. as far as marinates im leaving that a secret! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ink face Posted July 1, 2011 Author Share Posted July 1, 2011 I've heard that the problem with the dehydrators is that they circulate heated air, and that even though it's at a low temperature (145-165f), it's still cooking the meat partially and not just drying it. Changing the texture and flavor of the jerky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

griteeth Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 definitely need action flicks. ive only ever used a dehydrator and felt that it did indeed change the texture of the meat never thought of using a box fan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SystemFailure Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Trick to a dehydrator is to periodically add a pan of water into it if you can or at least some small receptacle to steam and moisten the strips. I know thats a duh to most but it works keeps shit less gnarled barkley Then again I like this shit chewy and not brittle. I've had some fairly exotic jerkyeez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ink face Posted July 1, 2011 Author Share Posted July 1, 2011 i like a good mix between chewy and brittle, we'll see how it turns out, another 30 minutes or so, i'm going to pull the strips out of the marinade and get them in front of the fan.

Mr. Incognito Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 i'll eat jerky but typically just beef. i've had all other kinds like buffalo, elk, kangaroo, alligator, venicen, but it all tastes the same regardless of what kind of meat it is. and it's basically a good way to waste a decent meat like venicen and making it taste exactly like some shitty beef.

ink face Posted July 1, 2011 Author Share Posted July 1, 2011 ok so here's the flicks up till now; the whole cut of flank steak i started out with trimmed off as much fat as i could get to and sliced into strips while still frozen enough to cut cleanly some of the fat i got off ready to get up in the marinade made from these products, and honey, forgot to get it in the picture marinate in the bag for 4 hours pat dry to get rid of excess marinade get out furnace/ac air filter (preferably not of the fiberglass persuasion) load up the jerky strips 2 lbs needed about 1 and a half filter "rack space" plus a third filter to cover them with stack the racks on the box fan and bungee down, right the fan and turn it on, wait 12 hours. pics of the finished product in t-11.5hrs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's by far the biggest pain in the ass, trimming the fat off the meat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
