Jerky lovers, look no further! This is THE BEST beef jerky you will ever try, it is super addictive!
————————————————————
Ingredients:
Beef – I recommend any of the rounds. Eye of round is best, but top round is what I use most because my local Mexican market sells it already sliced.
Low sodium soy sauce– Kikkoman brand recommended.
Light brown sugar – to balance salty & spicy elements of this marinade.
Worcestershire sauce – extra umami.
Balsamic vinegar – adds a bit of tang and flavor.
Orange & grapefruit juice - added flavor & helps to tenderize the beef.
Habanero peppers - these can be substituted with any pepper you prefer. I love the heat & flavor from habaneros, but jalapeños are excellent as well.
Crushed red pepper - this is optional, but I highly recommend adding them, especially to sprinkle over the jerky right before dehydrating. It not only tastes better, but looks a lot better too.
Seasoning – onion powder, garlic powder, and black pepper. These will be used to season the beef strips before adding the marinade.
Liquid smoke – to add a bit of hickory smoked flavor.
Seasoning:
- 2 tbsp onion powder
- 2 tbsp garlic powder
- 4 tsp black pepper
Marinade:
- 5 habanero peppers, or jalapenos for milder version
- 2 cups low sodium soy sauce
- 2 cups brown sugar
- 1/2 cup Worcestershire sauce
- 2/3 cup balsamic vinegar
- 1/2 cup fresh orange juice
- 1/2 cup fresh grapefruit juice
- 1 tbsp liquid smoke
- 2 tbsp crushed red pepper
