The Very Best Venison Jerky Recipe by The Ferret

       Select lean cuts of meat and cutting with grain slice into 3/8" thick x 1" wide
       strips

       Remove any fat or sinew

       Baste on Colgin's liquid smoke (both sides of meat)

       Sprinkle with granulated sugar -both sides (from a shaker)

       Sprinkle with Lowrey's seasoned salt-both sides

       Sprinkle with McCormick's pepper medley-both sides

       Put in fridge to marinate for 24 hrs

       Lay strips in food dehydator and cook for 12 hrs & check (then every 3 hours
       until done...may take up to 22 hours to cook in dehydrator)

       Meat should crack when bent but not break or snap

       If cooking in oven put toothpicks in meat and hang between racks

       Set oven on lowest cooking setting

       Crack door open to 1st stop

       Check after 12 hours and then every 3 hours until done

       Everybody raves about my jerky and I've used it on deer,  elk, and
       caribou. There is no Soy or Teriaki used which IMO pollutes the flavor of
       the meat. This is a great "meat" recipe. The pepper gives it a bit of bite
       depending on how much you use. Try it I guarantee you'll love it and never
       make jerky any other way again.
