meat & fish JerKy

Many recipes are available, but you can use just about any combination of the following 

ingredients: soy, Worcestershire, tomato or barbecue sauce; garlic, onion or curry powder, 

seasoned salt or pepper. Pick a lean cut of raw meat as free from fat as possible; the 

higher the fat content, the shorter the storage life of the jerky. slice the meat either with 

or across the grain. Uniform, even slicing is key! Jerky cut with the grain will be chewy; cut 

across the grain will be very tender but more brittle. Cut into strips 1’ wide, 3/18” thick and 

as long as you want. once sliced, cut off all visible fat.
