Homemade Beef Jerky - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 lb boneless round steak (I like a little bit of fat but definitely not too much) or 1 lb flank steak (I like a little bit of fat but definitely not too much)
3/4 tablespoon liquid smoke
4 tablespoons soy sauce
4 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon ketchup
2/3 teaspoon pepper (more pepper for hotter jerky)
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon onion salt
1/2 teaspoon salt

Preparation

Cut the meat to the thickness desired (I prefer just under 1/4 inch. Saturate the meat for at least 2 - 24 hours in the marinade and place it on your dehydrator. After about 3-4 hours rotate the beef jerky. When the meat bends like a willow tree it is probably about ready. (Usually 6-8 hours in a dehydrator).
