Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 3 pounds rump roast

  • 3 cups soy sauce

  • 3 cups packed brown sugar

  • 4 fluid ounces hickory-flavored liquid smoke

Directions

  1. Slice roast into slabs approximately 1/4-inch thick. (Note: you can have this done at the grocery store or butcher). Trim off all of the fat from the edges. Cut the slabs into pencil-like strips, about 1/4-inch wide and about 4 inches long.

  2. Combine soy sauce, brown sugar, and hickory-flavored liquid smoke in a large bowl; blend well. Place all of the meat into the bowl of marinade. Cover and place in refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

  3. Place meat strips in a food dehydrator for about 12 to 20 hours, depending on how dry you like your jerky. Rotate the trays after 6 hours. For example: Bottom tray on top, top tray on bottom, second tray from bottom to be second tray from top, and so on.
