Ingredients

Lean Meat

1 lb Eye of Round or Venison

Marinade

¼ cup worcestershire
¼ cup soy sauce
¼ cup dark beer or smoked beer such as Schlenkerla
1 tablespoon cracked black pepper
1 teaspoon honey
1 teaspoon onion powder

Optional

¼ teaspoon Curing Salt Prague Powder #1

Instructions

Pick a lean cut of beef and trim all visible fat. After trimming the fat, place the meat in the freezer for an hour or two to partially freeze. If purchasing already sliced beef, skip steps 1 & 3.
While the meat is in the freezer, combine and mix the soy sauce, worcestershire, dark beer, black pepper, honey, and onion powder in a medium size bowl or ziplock bag.
Remove meat from the freezer and slice against the grain between ⅛" - ¼" in thickness. Or skip the freezing phase and use a Jerky Slicer for evenly sliced strips.
Add sliced beef to the mixture and marinate for 6-24 hours in the refrigerator.
After the meat has finished marinating, remove from refrigerator and pat dry with paper towels.
Dry with your favorite jerky making method. An oven was used with this recipe and dried for 8 hours.
