4 to 5 pounds beef, eye of the round, sliced with the grain approximately 1/8 inch thick Marinade: 3/4 cup soy sauce 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce 2 Tbs Liquid Smoke 3/4 cup water 1 Tbs granulated garlic 2 Tbs onion powder 1-1/2 Tbs seasoned salt 1/2 tsp black pepper 1/2 tsp white pepper 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper Layer sliced meat in the mixture and let it marinade for 12 hours or so. Make sure to coat all pieces. I put them in a tightly sealed Tupperware container. I turn the whole container about 4 times or so. (keep refrigerated) Layer meat in a dehydrator as flat as you can. Don't overlap, sprinkle with additional course ground black pepper (to taste). Dehydration usually takes from 6 hours to 12 hours. Depending how good of a dehydration system you have you may need to turn the jerky once, after 3 to 4 hours of dehydrating. Store tightly sealed in the refrigerator.
