Instructions

1

Preparation

20 min.

Trim the beef (round or top round), remove fat, and cut across the grain into 3-4 mm thin strips. Mix all marinade ingredients together.

2

Marinating

8-12 hours

Place the meat strips in the marinade, mix well, and marinate in a sealed container or zip bag in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours.

3

Safety Heating

10 min.

Place the meat strips on a baking rack and heat in a preheated oven at 160 °C for 10 minutes to kill pathogens. Then pat dry.

4

Dehydrating

6-8 hours

Dehydrate the meat strips at 70 °C. Check regularly after 5 hours: the jerky is done when it no longer feels moist when bent but does not yet break.

Pro Tip

Briefly heat the meat in the oven at 160 °C before drying to ensure food safety. Vacuum-sealed, the jerky keeps for up to 2 months.
