Zesty deer jerky that you can make at home in your oven. If you have a food dehydrator, you can dry the venison by following the manufacturer's instructions. You can also reuse the marinade for additional batches.

Ingredients

  • 4 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 4 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons liquid smoke flavoring
  • 1 tablespoon ketchup
  • 0.5 teaspoons salt
  • 0.25 teaspoons pepper
  • 0.25 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 0.25 teaspoons onion salt
  • 1 pound boneless venison roast

Instructions

  1. 1

    Gather all ingredients.

  2. 2

    Combine soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, liquid smoke, ketchup, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion salt in a large releasable plastic bag; set aside.

  3. 3

    Slice venison into long strips, 1-inch wide and 1/8-inch thick. Add strips to marinade and seal the bag. Refrigerate 8 hours to overnight, kneading occasionally to evenly distribute marinade.

  4. 4

    Preheat the oven to 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Place a pan or aluminum foil on the oven floor to catch drippings. Remove venison from the marinade and shake off excess.

  5. 5

    Arrange venison on a wire rack in a single layer and dehydrate in the preheated oven until desired texture is achieved, 6 to 8 hours.
