By far one of the best jerky recipes I have found. The only change I make is instead of using Frank's Red Hot, I use Firehouse Jamaican Jerk sauce. (And we have a dehydrator instead of the oven.) So good! Making another batch at the moment! Thanks for sharing!

I love this beef jerky recipe. Made it once before and have some in the fridge marinating right now. It has great taste and so much better than store bought. The only change I made was to add fresh chili peppers in the marinade because we like it hot. Thank you for sharing this great recipe.

I agree with asking the butcher to cut it into thin strips for you, I had the store cut it into 1/4" thick strips and it was much easier than doing it myself. This was my first attempt at making jerky, and was extremely pleased with the outcome. This is a very flavorful jerky, although we did omit the hot sauce and found it spicy enough for our taste. But if you are into spicy foods, I would definitely put it in. My family is just a little bit wimpish when it comes to really spicy. But this marinade is great, I am glad that I decided to try it for my first batch of jerky!!

Great recipe. You can use any cut of beef you like and get the butcher to slice it thin for you (saves your fingers if you're clumsy like me). Awesome for high protien snacks. Add a bit of BBQ sauce for a little different zip.
