South Texas Hot & Spicy Smoked Beef Jerky

DIRECTIONS

  1. Slice the meat against the grain into 1/8″ -1/4″ thick strips, about 1.5″wide
  2.  Mix the marinade ingredients together in a large bowl.
  3.  Add your meat to the marinade, cover, and place it in the fridge to let that Marinade do its magic! Min. 4 hours, overnight is best!
  4.   After your desired marinating time, Set your smoker to 150°-170°(I used my Yoder YS640s pellet smoker)
  5.  Remove your meat from the marinade, ( I place the meat strips on paper towels & pat dry to remove excess marinade, this helps to speed up the dehydrating process)
  6.  Pro Tip – Use wire cooling racks to layout your strips of meat. taking care not to allow pieces to touch. Using racks makes it easier to get into and out of your smoker, you can also stack multiple racks on top of each other if you’re doing bulk amounts.
  7.  Now Sprinkle the strips with Uncle. Steve’s South Texas Red (or a crushed pepper blend) to your taste.
  8.  Get your meat on the smoker for 2 hours, give them a check, flip & rotate the strips to promote an even dehydrating time, check back every hour, flipping & rotating till you reach. your desired doneness consistency.
  9.  Cool, and place in a sealed container in the fridge to store. Enjoy!
