While doing some late spring cleaning, I found this recipe and thought I’d share it. If you like a bit of ZIP with your deer jerky, this is it!
Deer Jerky Recipe
5 lbs. sliced deer meat
3 Tablespoons (Tbsp.) coarse-grind black pepper
1 Tbsp. fine-grind black pepper
1 Tbsp. salt
2 teaspoons of Accent tenderizer
1 Tbsp. garlic powder
1 Tbsp. onion powder
1/2 cup of soy sauce
1 teaspoon Tender Quick *
Crushed red pepper, to taste
Mix all spices and sauce together. Marinate for 24 hours in the refrigerator. Smoke for 2 to 4 hours. Dry in oven @ 140 degrees or in a dehydrator.
* I was unable to find this product and left it out.

This came to us from a German farmer’s stock of well-worn recipes. He and his family have lived (and hunted deer) in the Texas Hill Country for generations.

On a Personal Note: Everything takes longer than you expect. The postings have slowed while I try to move my blog and its 300+ articles.
