Trim the fat on the meat and place it in the fridge for 1-2h to make it easier to cut into strips.
Slice the meat into strips AGAINST the grain, thinner strips will take less time to dehydrate and thicker strips will be chewier. 1/8th to 1/4 inches thick strips are good.
Mix all the ingredients in the marinade and put it in a bowl or ziplock bag.
Add the meat and let it marinate in the refrigerator for least 8h and preferably 24h for best flavor.
Remove the meat from the fridge.
Dry the meat strips for 2-6 hours at 140-170F (60-75C) depending on the thickness of your slices. You can either use a dehydrator or lay your meat strips on a metal grid in the oven. (Place aluminum foil or a tray under the meat to catch the drips)
The general rule is that your jerky is ready when it bends and cracks. Enjoy!
