Ingredients

  • 1 lb pork tenderloin
  • cup soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon chili garlic sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon curing salt

Instructions

  • Trim all visible fat from the meat and place in freezer for an hour or two to partially freeze.
  • While the meat is in the freezer, combine marinade ingredients in a bowl or ziplock bag.
  • Remove the meat from the freezer and slice ¼" strips against the grain for an easy chew. Cut with the grain for a more chewy jerky. 
  • Add sliced meat to the mixture in the ziplock bag or bowl and marinate for 8-24 hours in the refrigerator.
  • After the meat has finished marinating, remove from refrigerator and strain excess marinade in a colander and pat dry with paper towels.
  • Dry with your favorite jerky making method. I used my Nesco Dehydrator and dried for 4 ½ hours at 165F.
  • The jerky is finished when it bends and cracks, but does not break in half.
