Safety The handling and consumption of any raw meat carries with it certain risks, we highly recommend that anyone who attempts to make jerky at home first review the U.S.D.A guidelines below before you do so. You should familiarize yourself with some of the inherent risks of attempting to make homemade jerky. * Wash your hands for at least 20 seconds with soap and water before beginning to work and after changing tasks or after doing anything that could contaminate your hands, such as sneezing or using the bathroom. * Start with clean equipment and clean it thoroughly after using. Be sure all surfaces that come into contact with meat are clean. * Sanitize surfaces with a solution of 1 tablespoon chlorine bleach per gallon of water. Allow to air dry. * Keep meat and poultry refrigerated at 40 °F or slightly below. Use or freeze ground beef and poultry within 2 days; whole red meats, within 3 to 5 days. * Defrost frozen meat in the refrigerator, not on the kitchen counter. Keep raw meat separate from other foods. * Marinate meat in the refrigerator. Don’t save marinade to reuse (this could cause cross-contamination). Marinades are used to tenderize and flavor the jerky before dehydrating it. * Steam or roast meat to 160 °F and poultry to 165 °F as measured with a food thermometer before dehydrating it in order to destroy pathogenic micro-organisms. * Dry meats in a food dehydrator that has an adjustable temperature dial and will maintain a temperature of at least 130 to 140 °F throughout the drying process. * For ground beef jerky prepared at home, safety concerns related to E coli are minimized if the meat is precooked to 160 °F prior to drying. Meat cooking temperatures are very important so pay close attention to them if at all possible. * Homemade jerky can only be stored for one to two months, while commercially produced jerky can last a year. * Most salted jerky can be stored in the refrigerator or freezer for two to three months. Any longer and it deteriorates. Unsalted jerky should be refrigerated and used within two weeks.

Meat Selection The secret to making good jerky is starting with good quality meat. Quality meat means quality jerky. When headed to the supermarket to buy your meat keep in mind the following 3 tips. LEAN MEAT - An easy and common cut is flank steak. If beef flank steak is unavailable, other good candidates would include: round steak, rump roast and brisket flats. London broil cuts are good as well and organic is always great! Remember, the less marbling and fat, the better because fat will turn rancid very quickly and ruin your jerky in a matter of days! FRESH MEAT - Fresh beef should be a nice ruddy red. Pork should be a healthy light pink (that is, if you’re wanting bacon) and chicken should be a flesh tone shade. Dark spots or old smells are bad so make sure the meat you pick is fresh. QUANTITY - It requires about 3 to 5 pounds of meat to produce one 1 pound of jerky. Therefore, to get more for your money, range fed, 100% premium, visually lean, United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) inspected, flank steak is your best buy. There is no waste with this type of meat because it is all lean, pure red meat with consistent straight grain making it easy to prepare. If you do happen to get meat that you have to trim, use those trimmings to make ground beef! ** Note: Have the butcher cut long, ¼” strips either across or with the grain. If you are trimming your own, put the meat in the freezer for no more than 30 minutes to firm up but DO NOT LET HARDEN.

BUYING ON A BUDGET Just some quick tips to keep in mind when headed to the supermarket: * Check first what type of meat it is. Learn cuts of meat and which are cheaper and of coarse which have a higher fat content. (80% lean ground beef is obviously a better choice and lower in fat than meat that is only 60% lean.) * Check the weight, the price per pound, total price and sell date. Make sure the package of meat has not passed that date and plan to use or freeze the meat within two days of purchase, sooner if the sell-by date is up. * If your meat is packaged in white butcher paper, be sure to repackage the meat for the freezer in plastic wrap, foil or plastic bags and label.

Preparation The key to a safe and healthy work environment is attention to detail and excellent preparation habits. We understand the importance of safe kitchen habits and we would like to take the time to give you some helpful tips in preparing to make the best jerky possible. *Familiarize yourself with the USDA Fact Sheet before embarking on your jerky making journey. Ensure your hands and all items that will come into contact with your jerky are clean and sanitary. CUT Have your butcher cut the meat into ¼” thick strips with a width of 1”-1 ½” and length of 4”-10”. Whether the butcher cuts it or you do at home, cut with the grain for chewy jerky and across the grain for more of a tender, brittle jerky but be sure and keep the trimmings if you would like to make ground beef later. UTENSILS: * 6”-8” knife * Cutting board * Measuring equipment * Mixing utensil * Mixing bowl (glass or ceramic, not metal) * 2+ pans * Paper towels * Storage container * Collect all your utensils and wash everything including your hands. Have no other food products in the area and keep raw meat away from cooked meat. MARINADE Use glass or ceramic containers when working with marinades, as many will react with metal. Allow roughly ½ cup of marinade for each pound of meat. Dip each piece of meat into marinade, coating well. Place in shallow glass dish. Pour remaining marinade over top, cover and refrigerate for anywhere between 8-36 hours. The marinade process time span is up to you but the longer, the better. Remember to “overhaul” the meat every few hours if you can so it will cure evenly. Since cure is mostly salt and sugar, replace 1ts of cure for 1ts of salt in your recipe for every five pounds of meat. When the meat is ready, remove it from the marinade and pat dry with paper towels.

A basic marinade (for 2lbs of meat): * * * * * * * *

½ c Worcestershire sauce ½ c Soy Sauce 3 T Catsup 2 T Brown Sugar ½ t Onion Powder 1 ½ t Salt 1 Clove of garlic, minced well Pinch of Pepper

CURING Curing is completely optional however, if you’re going to dry or smoke something at or below 150 degrees for any length of time, you need to cure it! Curing meat just involves adding “curing salts” (Tender quick, Instacure, or Prague Powder) to the meat and giving the “cure” time to work (about 12 hours). The “curing salt” consists of a mix of salt, sugar and sodium nitrite. The main purpose of the cure is to protect against bad bacteria like botulism, which thrives in low cooking temps, no oxygen or warm meat. Meat is cured by the use of sodium nitrite. Never use more jerky seasoning and cure mix than a recipe calls for. However, feel free to add and adjust any other spices, herbs or flavorings to suit your own taste. The curing process used to make jerky will greatly reduce the gamy flavor of wild meats. Prepare deer and rabbit as described for beef. Game birds should be treated like chicken. TYPES OF CURES Morton makes three meat cures: * Morton® Tender Quick® Mix * Morton® Sugar Cure® Plain * Morton® Sugar Cure® Smoke Flavored **Only Morton® Tender Quick® and Morton® Sugar Cure® PLAIN are interchangeable measure for measure. **Morton® Sugar Cure® Smoke Flavored is used for DRY curing ham and bacon only. **Table salt or canning salt cannot be used in place of curing salt. If used, you will get salted meat but the color and flavor of the meat will not be properly developed.

SEASONING Some people chose to add their spices and marinade all together and make it one step. However, if you would like to marinade and then season your meat, you will need to drain or pat dry and lay out to season. Basic Spices: * * * * *

Salt Black Pepper Soy Sauce Worcestershire Sauce Brown Sugar/Honey

Other spices that are commonly used: * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Garlic Powder Onion Powder White Pepper Chile Powder Cayenne Powder Fresh Chiles Hot Sauce (my favorite) Garam Masala (Indian spice, mostly ground coriander, cumin, and cardamom) Cumin Lemon Pepper Sesame Oil Sesame Seeds Ground Ginger Fresh Ginger Green Onions Fresh Onion Dry Sherry Bourbon

Worst-case scenario, it’ll probably still taste good. However, if you can’t taste it in the jerky, it’s probably not a necessity next time but be sure and make note of what you used during your process. FRUIT LEATHER Ingredients: Fresh fruit, water, lemon juice, sugar and optional spices – cinnamon and nutmeg. (4 cups of fruit yield about one baking sheet of fruit leather) 1. Rinse, remove blemishes, peel skin, pit, core, deseed and/or hull if needed. Cut fruit into chunks. Test a piece of the fruit and if it’s very sweet you will not need to add any sugar. If it’s still a little tart, you may need to add some sugar in the next step.

2. Place fruit in a large saucepan. Add a half-cup of water for every 4 cups of chopped fruit. Bring to a simmer, cover and let cook on a low heat for 10-15 minutes, or until the fruit is cooked through. Uncover and stir. Use a potato masher to mash up the fruit in the pan. Taste the fruit and determine what and how much sugar, lemon juice, or spices to add. Add sugar in small amounts (1 Tbsp at a time if working with 4 cups of fruit), to desired level of sweetness. Add lemon juice one teaspoon at a time to help brighten the flavor of the fruit. Add a pinch or two of cinnamon, nutmeg, or other spices to augment the flavor. 3. Continue to simmer and stir until any added sugar is completely dissolved and the fruit purée has thickened, another 5 or 10 minutes (or more). 4. Put the purée through a food mill or chinoise. Alternatively purée it thoroughly in a blender or food processor. Taste again and adjust sugar/lemon/spices if necessary. The purée should be very smooth. 5. Line a rimmed baking sheet with sturdy plastic wrap (the kind that is microwave safe). Pour out the purée into the lined baking sheet to about an 1/8 to 1/4 inch thickness. 6. Place the baking sheet in the oven; try to keep any plastic wrap from touch the sides of the oven or the oven racks. Also try to make sure that the plastic wrap hasn’t folded back over on top of the purée. If this happens, the purée won’t dry out. Heat the oven to a low 140°F. If you have a convection setting, use it, it will speed up the process and help dry out the purée. Let dry in the oven like this for as long as it takes for the purée to dry out and form fruit leather, about 8-12 hours. The fruit leather is ready when it is no longer sticky, but has a smooth surface. Alternatives to the oven: food dehydratorWhen the fruit leather is ready, you can easily peel it up from the plastic wrap. To store it, roll it in its plastic wrap, put it in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator or freezer.

Dehydration A cooking technique that has been around for hundreds of years is now an art form perfected by amateur and professional chefs everywhere. This section will explain to you exactly what dehydration is and how it pertains to preparing the best possible jerky, as well as all the modern day dehydration techniques and there functions. Food Dehydration: is the process of removing water from food (usually through evaporation), which in turns prevents the growth of microorganisms and bacteria. **If using dehydrator or oven, pre-heat to 145 degrees for 15-30 minutes prior. **Be sure to check your jerky often. Do not rely on the times given. Oven – lay out the strips on a cookie sheet lined with foil, in rows and a single layer. The pieces in the middle will dry slower and you will also need to turn the pieces over at the end and dry a while longer to ensure the bottoms get dry. Cook at 140-170 degrees anywhere from 10-14 hours propping open the door to allow moisture to escape and to lower the oven temperature when necessary. Grill – Lay the meat slices on a grill or grate that allows air to reach both sides and to flow around each piece. You can also place a couple pieces of meat on a took pick and hang the meat from the grate allowing the smoke to flow up the strips. However, any way you do it, the meat will drip so place a stray or aluminum foil under the meat. Space it as far underneath the meat as possible to avoid restricting the airflow. Cook at 200 degrees for 1 hour with indirect heat. If your grill cannot be held at this low temperature, cook for smoke flavor for about 20 minutes and then finish in the oven. Dehydrator – Use a dehydrator with a built-in electric heater and fat. This allows fast, even drying with little risk of food spoilage. Look for a unit with a fan and a thermostat for best results. Cook at 140 degrees anywhere from 6-18 hours rotating trays every hour. Smoker – Smokers provides a more natural flavored jerky. The heat to cook the meat is provided by the use of either an electric heating element or charcoal. Because of the difficulties associated with keeping charcoal at a consistent burning rate for the 10 hours required, electricity as a fuel source would be the best option. About 30 minutes before you start the smoke, light your briquettes in your chimney lighter, about 8 pieces aught to be about right, 9

depending on the weather. Then, when the coals are almost ready, put them in the fire pan and start hanging your jerky. Save one or two hot briquettes in the chimney to light new ones as we go. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll need to add 2-3 hot briquettes about ever 45 minutes. Now, cover it up and add your soaked wood or foil packets. Use any hardwood for smoking (hickory or mesquite are the most common and one with a pecan base makes the best combo of smoky tasting without ashy tasting), alder chips or apple wood are excellent choices for wild game and never use pine, fir or conifers. Go ahead and smoke heavily for about 3 hours, then stop the smoke and continue drying for another 2 hours. Maintain 150 degrees for the entire cook. At about 4 hours you can start sampling. Somewhere between 4 and 6 hours, depending on taste, pull them off. Cook at 150 degrees for approximately 10 hours. Microwave â&#x20AC;&#x201C; While microwaving jerky is not a common method, it is still doable. However, be aware that it may cook the meat more than it may dry it out. Place the meat strips in a microwave roasting rack. Set the microwave on high for 4 to 6 minutes. After 4 minutes add time in 30-second increments until desired consistency. Traditionally, the idea is to have a dried jerky. This means a color change from brown to dark brown, and a consistency in the meat that has changed from supple to leathery in its texture. Sun Drying â&#x20AC;&#x201C; While sun drying has been around for a long time, it is not a good method for jerky today. However, if you are an experienced jerky maker, a PROFESSIONAL, and truly understand what is required, lean beef, young lamb or venison are able to be sun-dried. Fish should not be unless it is heavily salted, although without proper experience, this can still be very risky and poultry should NEVER be sun-dried. To successfully sun dry meats, you should live in an arid, hot, sunny and windy area, optimal conditions that are hard to find. Please remember, when sun-drying, you put yourself at risk for food poisoning. **Whatever method you chose, do not place your racks so that one layer can drip on another. The time it takes to dry the meat will depend on the thickness, as well as, the temperature at which the meat is being dried. When you think your jerky is done, it should bend but not break and be a much darker color.

Storing Although it might be the most important step in making homemade jerky, the storing process is one that is often neglected and misunderstood. The following information are excellent guidelines in helping you to properly store jerky after the cooking process to ensure a quality snack for the longest time possible. MEAT Before you store your jerky, always make sure that it has completely cooled. If you do not do this it will sweat and mold will set in. The following are ways you may preserve your jerky: * Shrink wrap – a material made up of plastic film. When heat is applied to this material it shrinks tightly over whatever it was covering. * Skin Pack – a type of carded packaging where a product is placed on a piece of paperboard, and a thin sheet of transparent plastic is placed over the product and paperboard. * Plastic wrap – a thin plastic film typically used for sealing food items in containers to keep them fresh. Plastic wrap, typically sold on rolls in boxes with a cutting edge, clings to many smooth surfaces and can thus remain tight over the opening of a container with no adhesive or other device. * Vacuum packing – a method of storing food and presenting it for sale. Appropriate types of food are stored in an airless environment, usually in an airtight pack or bottle to prevent the growth of microorganisms. The vacuum environment removes atmospheric oxygen, protecting the food from spoiling. Vacuum packaging products using plastic bags, canisters, bottles, or mason jars are available for home use. * Vacuum pouches are used in conjunction with vacuum packaging equipment to reduce the atmosphere in a package to protect and preserve the freshness of food products, such as meat and poultry, seafood, produce and cheese. Vacuum pouches are also used to keep other non-food products (e.g. medical and pharmaceutical items) sterile and to prevent oxidation.

The benefits of vacuum packaging in vacuum pouches include: * * * * * * * * * *

Increased shelf-life of food products: Prevention of product degradation and protection from oxidation: Protection against contact and contamination: Various types of vacuum pouches include: Side-seal Vacuum Pouches Zipper/Resealable Vacuum Pouches Metalized Vacuum Pouches Stand-up Vacuum Pouches (Boil-in-Bags) Vacuum Pouches Safe Handling Vacuum Pouches

If you know you are not going to eat your jerky for several months up to a year or plus, you will want to package it very tightly and place in the freezer. Commercially packaged jerky can be kept 12 months out of freezer. Home-dried jerky can be stored 1 to 2 months out of freezer. Unsalted jerky should be refrigerated and used within two weeks. FRUIT Roll it up in its plastic wrap, put it in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator or freezer.

Holiday Beef Jerky Recipe Ingredients: * * * * * * * *

1 lb. beef (or any meat type) 1/2 c. apple cider 1/3 tsp. white pepper 1/5 tsp. nutmeg 1 Tb. corn syrup cinnamon salt curing salt

Directions: 1. To make the cutting process easier, try freezing your meat no longer than 30 minutes prior. Either way, you will want to slice your meat into strips about 1/4″ thick (or get creative and try Christmas shaped cookie cutters!). 2. Combine the salt and curing salt with your meat and let sit. Some people let their meat cure in the fridge an hour and some do it for 2 days, it’s your preference. 3. Add the remaining ingredients, the measurements are your preference but try not to use more than just a pinch of cinnamon on each side of your jerky strips, cinnamon can be very strong! After mixing all of your ingredients into your meat, you can either let it marinate for a while in the fridge again or go straight to your dehydrating method. 4. If using a dehydrator, lay out your strips onto the racks, without touching and dehydrate on the lowest temperature anywhere from 12-24 hours. Be sure and check periodically so you can have your jerky just the way you want it! If you’re using an oven, set it to the lowest temperature, foil line a cookie sheet and lay out your strips without touching and stick it in the oven. Keep the oven door propped open for ventilation and let dehydrate anywhere from 3-9 hours. Remember, the longer you dry out your meat the harder it gets and you don’t want to cook it so, check often if using the oven method. Have fun, enjoy and happy holidays!! Beef

Hawaiian Ground Deer Jerky Recipe Ingredients:

Directions:

* 5 pounds ground venison * 5 teaspoons canning salt * 1 1/2 teaspoons Tender Quick® curing mix * 1/2 cup brown sugar * 1 1/2 cups pineapple juice * 1/2 cup teriyaki sauce * 2 cloves garlic, minced * 1 medium white onion, minced * 1 tablespoon black pepper

1. Combine the ground venison, canning salt and Tender Quick®, mixing thoroughly. Press the meat into a large cake pan, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate. Let the ground venison cure in the fridge for two more days, mixing twice a day. 2. When the venison is mixed for the last time, add the remaining ingredients, making sure that everything is completely mixed together. The best tools to do the mixing with are a pair of hands. Squishing, kneading and pressing do a better job than any spoon can. 3. To form it, the easiest way is to use a jerky shooter. Form it onto the racks of a dehydrator, or onto cookie sheets if you’re drying the meat in the oven. Set the oven to 155-160 degrees Fahrenheit, or as close as you can get. It will take four to six hours to dry the cured venison jerky.

Directions: 1. Buy fruit that is ripe or over-ripe for the best flavor or buy fresh fruit and let it set out for a few days. 2. Remove all pits, seeds & stones. Grapes and berries do not need seed removal. 3. Slice fruit into chunks and puree in a food processor or blender. 4. If using yellow or light-colored fruit, add 1 Tb. of lime or lemon juice for each quart of fruit. 5. If using orange or pineapple pulp, add artificial sweetener . 6. Line a cookie sheet with wax paper and pour the puree onto the sheet (about 1/4-inch deep). Distribute evenly by tilting the sheet. Do not use a spatula or knife. The cookie sheet should be completely covered. 7. Set oven at 140 degrees and place in the oven leaving the oven door cracked open 2 to 6 inches. The fruit jerky will be dried in about 4 hours. Storage: After loosening the edge and peeling it back about an inch, roll the waxed paper and the dried leather in one piece into a loose roll. The dried fruit roll can be stored for years in the freezer, for months in the refrigerator, and many weeks at room temperature (70 degrees Fahrenheit or less).
