Instructions: Cut meat in 1/4 inch slices. This is easiest done if the meat is partially frozen. I prefer it cut against the grain as it is easier for younger children to chew, but others prefer it cut with the grain. Combine all the other ingredients, mix well and add sliced meat.

Mix the marinade well into the meat, trying to ensure that all strips have been coated. Marinate the meat for at least 24 hours, mixing it several times. Lay marinated meat on open oven racks, sprayed with veggie spray. Place in a 150 oven, until the meat is dry, leaving the door open a crack to let moisture out.

This should take 4-6 hours, depending on how dry you like it. I like a little moisture in mine, so I freeze it when it is done. I just keep it in the refrigerator for short-term use. However, you can dry it completely and store it in Ziplocks or airtight jars.
