Homemade Beef Jerky
Beef jerky is a great lean, high-protein snack that's easy to pack around. I lived on the stuff when I was bodybuilding. Store bought beef jerky can be down right inedible so here is an easy, tasty recipe so you can make your own.
Heat oven to 150 degrees.
1 flank steak
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon lemon pepper
Cut flank steak lengthwise (with the grain) in long thin strips no more then 1/4-inch thick. Combine remaining ingredients in mixing bowl. Add meat; marinate 1 hour. Baste occasionally if meat is not completely covered with sauce.
Arrange meat strips on rack; place on cookie sheet. Bake 12 hours. The time can vary a little depending on how your oven bakes. Meat should be cooked through and dry, but not brittle. Cool and store in a covered container.
It's also easy to tweak the marinade to something you might like better.
