Deer Jerky

[longsidelandry]

Well I finally tried my hand at making some deer jerky and I have to say that it turned out pretty darn good. The guys at the office loved it and want me to make some more for them to take home! I'll start trying some different spices and rubs for different flavors. If I can get a bunch of meat this weekend, I'll save some and make a bunch for the fishing tournament.

I'm gonna send my boys to your house & yall can just have a jerky making party! They make it all the time. They take the racks out of the oven & prepare everything in the bath tub!:shaking: At least the mess is easy to clean up!

what did you use to marinate?

what did you use to marinate?
A lil bit of everything in the fridge and cabinet. I just seasoned the meat like I would when I bbq, just grabbed all kind of seasoning and threw it all in the sink. I was really testing it out to see how long it would take but my next round will be with different marinades so I can get a few different tastes out of the batch.

I did some a while back in some italian dressing made it pretty sweet.....you have to be carefull and measure and write it down cause i made some perfect one time just how i like it and i can't never get it to taste that way again

I never follow a recipe when I marinate the meat, everytime is different, I just kinda taste it as I add something to it. I'll probably follow a couple of the recipes I got online just to see how they taste then modify them to how I want it to taste...more pepper, sweeter, jalapeno's, things like that.
