Jerky Fail

😱😦😣💩😖😬😰😷

There needs to be a face that's sickily Green, because that's how I feel after eating my homemade Jerky. Well, one of the two recipes.    Seriously. YUCK.  (Luckily the other recipe is okay-ish).

Bleh!

So the failed recipe was acalled Hankytown, or, Hangtown -  something like that.
It was:

  • 1 Cup Red Wine ( I don't like dehydrated red wine!)
  • 2/3 Cup oil (And this was a bad idea on top!)
  • 2 Tbsp Onion flake
  • 2 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1tsp tomato powder
  • 1 tps caynne
  • 1/2tps cumin
So bad... So So So bad.... :(  It was the oil. I know it was the oil because oil doesn't dehydrate. BLAH! BLEH! 😖  Bah-humbug  BLEH... And of course, I being cheap, dont want to throw it out yet given that I took the time and money to make it. But BLEH! :(  

The other recipe is okay. Nothing to write home about, but not bad and certainly not making me cry like the first.


The Okay / But still don't want to make as written again recipe :
Cidered Jerky: This recipe is for 1-2lbs of meat, no more!

  • 1/4 cup Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 4T Worcestershire sauce
  • 2T Brown Sugar
  • 1t Salt
  • 1t Garlic Powder
  • 1/2t Black Pepper.
Again not the most amazing Jerky every, but decent.

My meat was beef - shoulder roasts. I trimmed it of any large fat sections/marble, and sliced it against the grain in 1/8 or less thick slices about 1-2" wide and 2-5 inches long.
