The wife and I love us some deer jerky....I use Allegro Marinades you can get at Walmart or any major grocery store and each bottle is about $2.50. Simple easy and delish! I prefer the Hickory Smoke and the HotnSpicy personally.
-For 15lbs I used 2-3 bottles of Hickory Smoke and 1 HotNSpicy.
-Sliced deer across the grain (muscles fibers) in 1/8-1/4" slices
-Place in big bowl with all bottles of marinade, mix making sure you have good coverage.....I marinade for at least 12 hours but prefer 24ish. The longer the better.
-Mix every 6 hours or so as well if you can.
-Place on dehydrator, add red pepper or restaurant grade black pepper to taste and let the dehydrator do it's thing.
Remember the meat will shrink but the pepper quantity and heat will not.. Don't over do it. If you hang from your oven racks to dry, add pepper before running through picks or skewers..
