This beef jerky recipe is made with a beef cut commonly used for London broil, and marinated before drying in teriyaki, soy sauce, orange juice, and honey.
Plan ahead because you will need to marinate overnight and the drying time can take eight to 12 hours. You can make this jerky in a standard oven or in a dehydrator.
A typical jerky loses half of its starting weight in moisture, so 1 pound of London broil will yield 1/2 to 2/3 pound jerky. You can double this recipe if you have adequate drying space.

Dry the Beef Strips:
-
Remove the marinated beef strips from the bag. Pat dry with paper towels.

-
Distribute beef strips in a single layer on dehydrator racks.

-
Dry for 4 to 8 hours, turning the racks every hour, and turning the jerky strips over midway through the drying process. Drying times vary due to oven differences and meat size, so it may take as long as 12 hours.

When done, the jerky should have no signs of redness and be pliable enough to bend in half without breaking. Perfect jerky is firm, dry, and not at all spongy. If your jerky is so dry that it breaks in two easily, it's probably overdried.

-
Store the jerky. To store, pack the jerky in food grade containers with tight fitting lids. Vacuum sealing is a good option, if possible. Store the containers at room temperature for up to 2 weeks. For longer storage, refrigerate for up to 3 months or freeze for up to 6 months. Serve and enjoy!. Enjoy.

Tip
- Make sure that you use garlic and onion powder. If you use garlic or onion salt, or the jerky will be too salty.
- Marinate for at least 24 hours in the refrigerator. Remember the longer you marinate, which you can go as long as 36 hours, the more flavor you'll get in your jerky.
