Ingredients

  • 1 lb beef -- eye of round or your favorite cut (any could work)
  • 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon of onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon powdered crab/shrimp boil
  • 1/4 cup of Worcestershire
  • 1/2 cup of soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup of teriyaki sauce

Instructions

  • One pound of beef should be sliced into strips that are between 1/8 and 1/4 inch wide
  • Prepare your marinade by mixing the ingredients for 6–24 hours. The longer the beef is kept in the refrigerator, the better it will taste of the marinade
  • Place the steak on the paper towels to dry it. Prepare your cooking trays, then place the beef slices on the prepared trays with space between each piece of meat
  • The meat should be dried at 160° F for a few hours.  The average time is between five and seven hours. However, your dehydrator might need more or less time
