Ready in: 10 hours 30 mins

Ingredients

Makes: 1 pound

• 4 pounds lean beef, sliced into 1/8 to 1/4-inch thick strips
• 1 1/2 cups Worcestershire sauce
• 1/2 cup Tabasco habanero sauce
• 1/2 cup Tony Chachere’s Creole seasoning
• 1/4 cup garlic powder
• 1/4 cup onion powder
• 1/4 cup coarse ground black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1/2 cup dried parsley
• 1/2 cup Tiger(R) sauce Cajun-style seasoning sauce

Preparation method

Prep: 30 mins | Cook: 9 hours | Extra time: 1 hour, drying

1. Slice beef and remove as much fat as possible, place into a large bowl or zip-top bag. Add in all the rest of the ingredients and mix very well. Marinate 12 to 24 hours.
2. Place meat into food dehydrator; make sure you lay it all flat, not stacking any. Set dehydrator to 165 degrees F and leave it there for approx 9 hours, until the jerky breaks when bent.
3. If you slice the meat 1/8-inch thick, 7 hours should be long enough. You may have to adjust the time depending on your dehydrator, check after about 6 hours and see how it’s coming.Try with venison:

This recipe is great for deer meat also, but may not need as much time in the dehydrator.
