Peppered Beef Jerky

This Pepper Beef Jerky recipe is packed with classic jerky flavor and has a perfect balance of spices to satisfy your taste buds. Whether you are a beef jerky veteran or trying it for the first time, you’ll enjoy the rich taste and chewy texture.

Ingredients:

1 pound of beef (flank steak or sirloin work great)
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for some heat)
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions:

Begin by slicing the beef into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick. Aim for uniformity to ensure even drying. For best results, freeze the beef for about an hour before slicing to make it easier to cut.
In a large bowl, combine the soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, red pepper flakes, sugar, and salt. Mix well until all ingredients are combined.
Add the sliced beef to the marinade, ensuring each piece is fully coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or overnight for maximum flavor.
Preheat your dehydrator or oven to 160°F (70°C). If using an oven, place the strips of beef on a wire rack over a baking sheet to allow air to flow around the meat.
Dehydrate the beef for about 4-6 hours until it is dry but still slightly flexible. You will know it’s ready when it bends slightly without breaking.
Once done, let the jerky cool completely before storing it in an airtight container or zip-top bag. Enjoy your homemade Peppered Beef Jerky as a snack during your hikes, road trips, or just about anytime you’re craving something savory!

With this easy recipe, you can have a tasty treat that not only satisfies cravings but packs a punch of flavor that makes every bite worth it. Prepare it for yourself or share it with friends and family – they’ll be sure to love it!
