Steps:

• In a small bowl or cup, mix together the onion powder, garlic powder, and some cracked black pepper. Season the meat lightly, using only part of the mixture. Reserve the remaining spices. Place into an airtight plastic container or bowl, and refrigerate.
• In a saucepan over medium heat, mix together the brown sugar, soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, Worcestershire sauce, balsamic vinegar, liquid smoke flavoring and pineapple juice. Heat until the brown sugar has completely dissolved. Refrigerate marinade until cool.
• Pour cooled marinade over the seasoned meat, and mix by hand to coat. Seal the bowl, and refrigerate for at least 3 hours.

SIMPLE DIY BEEF JERKY

Steps:

• Thinly slice the meat* and cut off all visible fat.
• Pound slices with a meat tenderizer mallet until pieces are uniform thickness (aprox nickel width).
• Place the beef strips in a zip-top bag. Mix remaining ingredients and pour over beef.
• Cover & marinate for 12-36 hours. Shake the bag a few times as it's marinating to make sure the beef is evenly coated.
• Spread the meat in a single layer, shaking off any excess marinade, on the dehydrator trays.
• Dry at 165F/74C for 4-6 hours, occasionally blotting off any fat droplets that appear on the surface. Test using a cooled piece. Properly dried jerky, when bent, should crack but not break.
• Package jerky in and air-tight container or vacuum seal (*see storage notes below). Store in a cool, dark & dry place.
