I have made this recipe 4 times now and we LOVE it. I cut the recipe in half to fill 4 trays. I've tried the teryaki topping but we like the ketchup,liquid smoke and worcesteshire sauce the best. I made the mistake of mixing the sauce into the meat and it turned out better, in my opinion, than when I brushed it on. I've made it twice that way and prefer it over brushing on the sauce. I gave some to my neighbor last night and she shared with company. They wanted the recipe and were stopping on their way out of town to buy a jerky gun to make it when they get home. Thanks for sharing.

I have been trying to make all types of jerky for years. I found this one and have made it a few times now and everyone loves it. I use lean ground turkey instead, its one dollar cheaper here a pound and little bit healthier. I did also mix all ingredients together instead of brushing it on. thanks so much for the recipe
