Ingredients
6 Servings
- 900 g beef sirloin tip
- 50 g brown sugar
- 5 g garlic powder
- 5 g ground black pepper
- 30 ml honey
- 15 ml liquid smoke
- 5 g meat tenderizer
- 5 g onion powder
- 5 g paprika
- 240 ml soy sauce
- 240 ml Worcestershire sauce
Directions
Step 1
In a large bowl, combine soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, liquid smoke, brown sugar, black pepper, meat tenderizer, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and honey. Mix well to combine.
Step 2
Place the thinly sliced beef into the marinade, ensuring each piece is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.
Step 3
Preheat the oven to 70°C (160°F). Line baking sheets with aluminum foil and place wire racks on top.
Step 4
Arrange the marinated beef slices in a single layer on the wire racks, making sure they do not overlap.
Step 5
Dry the beef in the preheated oven until the jerky is dry and leathery, about 4 to 6 hours. Flip the jerky pieces once halfway through the drying time.
Step 6
Once done, let the jerky cool completely before storing it in an airtight container.
