BUFFALO JERKY
1 to 3 buffalo flank steaks or London
broils
(May substitute beef; 3 steaks
will yield approximately 2 oven-racks
of jerky)
Shoyu sauce
Garlic powder
Trim all visible fat from meat and cut slices, 1/4 thick or less. Cut slices across the grain. Meat is easier to slice thinly if partially frozen. In a large bowl or pan, alternate layers of meat slices, shoyu, and garlic powder. Marinate in refrigerator at least overnight, or up to 24 hours. Spread slices on oven racks. Set oven temperature at 140 to 150 degrees. Prop oven door slightly open to allow moisture to escape. Dry for approximately 8 hours, or until dry but not brittle. Will keep well without refrigeration, but may be stored in refrigerator or freezer.
