Ingredients:
10 pounds deer meat
2 cups chopped onions
2 cups brown sugar
1 cup red wine vinegar
1 cup catsup
4 quarts cold water
2 tsp. Mesquite smoke flavor
3 tsp. curing salt
2 tsp. garlic powder
9 Tbsp. salt
2 Tbsp. chili powder
3 Tbsp. black pepper
3 Tbsp. cayenne pepper
2 Tbsp. ground yellow mustard seed
Instructions:
Grind the meat. Mix all other ingredients and then stir them into the ground venison. Using a jerky shooter, form strips of meat on the shelves of a food dehydrator. (Dehydrating time depends on type and size of dehydrator, see instructions that came with your model). Store dried jerky in freezer until ready to consume.

I’ve made a lot of jerky, though not lately – teriyaki, soy, hot, smoked, you name it. It’s a lot of fun, but unless you make a whole lot of it, you eat it in a short time 😉
That’s the truth!!!!
