- How to smoke beef jerky on the WSM. I show step by step how to prep your WSM, how to control your heat, and how to make the best homemade smoked beef jerky you've ever tasted!
Smoked Peppered Beef Jerky Recipe
4 lbs Flank Steak or Top Round
2 tsp garlic powder
2 tsp onion powder
1.5 tsp cayenne pepper
2 tsp chipotle pepper
2 tsp red pepper flakes
2 tsp cracked black pepper
1 tsp salt
1 cup water
1 cup soy sauce
2 cups worchestershire sauce
1/2 cup agave nectar (replace with honey if desired)
Fresh cracked black pepper for final seasoning before smoking.
Slice meat to desired thickness for jerky.
Add first 6 seasonings, liquids, and agave nectar or honey.
Marinate at least 12 hrs for best flavor.
Remove beef from marinade and pat dry with paper towels.
Place strips of beef onto your smoker.
Dust the strips with cracked black pepper.
Smoke strips at 150F - 175F until desired doneness (6-7 hrs).
Remove jerky and let it cool for at least an hour. Storing in your fridge the jerky should last about 5-6 weeks. If left at room temp, it should last 3-4 weeks assuming you don't eat it all before then!! Enjoy!!!

Good recipe. The key to this recipe is the cup of water and cup of soy instead of 2 cups of soy. You will see recipes with 1:1 worch:soy. Use the water. The other key to this recipe is the fundamental garlic and onion powder. He got this totally right for 4lb of meat. Lastly, the other ingredients are to taste regarding heat and spice. You can't go wrong if you follow his base recipe. Important: Dry your strips before smoking as wet meat will not absorb any smoke. Go forth. And thank you for this video. Well done.
I appreciate the support Loren and thanks for the kind words!!!
Why is water so important?
Yeah why is the water so important?
What kind of meat? And how thick?
This guy seems like a good guy... Very honest vibe...
Ikr
Play-Doh I thought the exact same thing hey.. 👍🏻
I've been watching T-roy for over 3 years. What you see is what you get. I man from Texas that loves grilling and BBQ.
DanMoto well that's about all you can do on RUclips as well as talking to them. Ive been a sub for years and he does seem to be a nice guy. Even if you meet ppl in person they can fool you.
famous last words
I love the way this dude says "Weber Smokey Mountain", it's not like a bad thing, it's a good thing, something about it, just great.
I appreciate that!!! Thanks for watching!
My mom and I don't cook but my brother does. I asked him to make me this but he said no(brothers😑) so then for my birthday he surprised me with this recipe of beef jerky. I was so happy because the kindyou get in the store is like so little and so expensive. THIS WAS THE BEST JERKY EVER. THX !
I became a subscriber. You had me at "Zoomification".
+Bret Z Ha!!! Many thanks Bret!!!
+Bret Z same
Throwing some paprika into the mix also does wonders for the flavor, tried this all the way in the UK, works perfectly and tastes great !
T-Roy, it took me almost 3 hours to watch this 15 minute video...
at 12:36 I had to pause and start making some sauce, start some coals and run to the store to get some cheap cow.
Soaked the cow for two hours and got it on the Smoke Hollow 4-in-1, using apple chips and almond wood with charcoals.
You gave me the idea, but it probably turn out more like a Bubba cook... In 5 or 6 hours, time will tell :)
You are great !!!!
Hey Joe, how did the jerky turn out? I've never used almond wood, but I bet it's good stuff! Thanks for watching!
T-ROY COOKS T-Roy, It turned out better then the store bought stuff.
I was not prepared to smoke jerky, but you got me hungry.
Not able to marinade for at least 8 hours, some flavor was lost.
For a little extra heat I used aro. 3oz of " Fire Mouth" Cajun hot sauce.
Here in Nor-Cal, almond is very common for heating and I like it for wood burning BBQ and smoking.
Joe Bucci Glad you enjoyed the jerky Joe. It is much better than store bought stuff. Thanks again!!
Joseph, I do not use any water in the 4n1 for jerky, just go low, slow and steady and you will have the best jaw chew'en dead cow that you ever had...
I know that you will enjoy your new cooking/smoking toy.
I have only one time used water with it on a big chunk of pig, had a smoke in the fire box and the water in the bbq....... next time I will put the water in the fire box on the grill..
Thanx for asking
I love BBQ and I love watching T-Roy Cooks!
Great video, really like that you cut between the action spots, makes it much quicker to get the info. Thanks for the sharing man, great stuff.
Great video. It's very rare that I watch a full video over 15 minutes on RUclips.
crudball666 Thank you very much! I greatly appreciate you sticking around for the entire video. Glad you enjoyed it! Since making this video, I do try to keep my videos under 10 mins, but sometimes it's hard to convey useful info in such a short time. Thanks again and I hope you have a great weekend! Troy
Great looking jerky. Ive been making jerky for 10+ years, and a good thing too. Prices today are >$2 an ounce, and few is as good as I can make.
Hey Troy, went back and watched a couple of your jerky videos for ideas and inspiration ! Thanks Brother !
I used your recipe on some top round. GREAT. I MEAN REALLY GREAT. This is my first try. I am at just over 7000 feet in Santa Fe so it took close to 9 hours, but really worth the wait. Thank you so much. Oh, I used local green chili powder. Very spicy:)
Just got my first Arizona mule deer and I can;t wait to try your recipe. Thanks for posting the video for us rookie jerky makers. really appreciate it!
+Scott Vega Thanks for watching Scott. This recipe should work great with any red meat.
Why is this so satisfying!
Man..That Looks Awesome! Something About Meat...We Just Cant Seem To Stop Inventing Ways To Cook It. This Is As Primitive As We Can Get And We Like It Like That..Great Job!
you the man bro thanks all the way from New Zealand 😁👌
Thanks very much for the kind words. I appreciate you watching and hope you have a wonderful weekend!!!!
I have to say again I enjoy your BBQ and smoking tips. I have been making your beef jerky for about a year and a half, and my co-workers LOVE IT. Since I live in New Mexico I have been using Hatch green chili power in the liquid. IT IS GREAT! Thanks for all you are doing. You have given me a new love. Keep up the great work.
Dear T-Roy, Loving that beef jerky, never inspired to do it till you posted this video, did it and it was FANTASTIC, thank you so much!! :)
It's really easy to do, isn't it? I'm so happy you decided to give it a try and glad to hear that you liked it. The fun thing about making jerky is trying out different ingredients for the marinade. Of course, eating it is fun too!!! LOL Thanks for the update Ignacio!!! Have a wonderful week!
family finger
I've been on a T-ROY COOKS video binge. Quality stuff, thanks!
Thank you very much for the support Steve. So happy to hear you are enjoying watching me cook up some fine dishes. I hope you'll give some of them a try and let me know what you think! Cheers brother!
Looks yummy! Thanks for sharing. I'm going to try myself...first oven, then smoke it a little bit.
Thanks Jonas - let me know how it turns out smoking it after you dry it out in the oven.
Made me hungry. Looked like a great batch. Amazed at the quantity of spice you used.
Thanks Byron, quite a few folks have made this recipe and they loved it. Give it a shot with a small batch and see what you think. You can always tweak the recipe to your liking and once you get it just right, you can do a large batch of it. Homemade jerky is so much better than the store bought stuff. I appreciate you watching and if you give it a try, please let me know what you think!
Made homemade smoked beef jerky for the first time this weekend and used this recipe. AMAZING. Awesome flavor with a great heat that's not over powerful and slowly comes in. Thanks. I used pecan in my pellet smoker (Blazin Grill Works) with extra smoke using a tube smoker. I did smoke it at 200F though. Did 4 racks of about 4.5lbs bottom round wet weight which took about 4.5 hours. Definitely doing this again and will probably never buy jerky again.
Thanks for the feedback!!! I'm thrilled that you enjoyed it. I'm the same way, I won't buy store bought jerky again after making it myself. Enjoy!!!
T-ROY COOKS , Gotta tell ya man, you did so many things wrong with that PORTERHOUSE STEAK. First NEVER EVER EVER, cook a steak on a gas grill.!!!!!!!! That's a FELONY !!!!!!!!!!!!
SECOND, NEVER EVER use iodized table salt on a steak, but instead use Kosher course salt.....
And for God sake, please stop putting that dang oil on your steaks, use REAL butter.....
And serve a true mans size steak, thanks....

Hi there. Im a Brit thats found his way to Canada and just starting out with the fine things in life like cooking with smokers. Ive began watching your videos and Im enjoying them. Cant wait to start cooking with my new smoker. Thanks for the videos.
+paul h Great to have you on board Paul. I'm sure you'll get the hang of it pretty quick. Happy New Year to ya!!!
+T-ROY COOKS thank you. Happy New year to you too.
You're video's are great. Down home, easy going, food loving videos.
+1, man!
Another good video thanks happy dad's day
Great video Troy! I'm a beef jerky addict!
Thanks Greg, this was a great recipe. Nothing like a little naturally smoked jerky!
WOW! when I saw the finished product the hairs on my body stood straight of from how good it looked. Good job.
Glad you liked the video. I always have fun making jerky. It's super easy to do, even if you have to do it in the oven. BTW, I also have a video just before this one where I do cook it in the oven. Thanks for watching!
Can you store that jerky for preps or do you have to eat it right away?
Great video, and thanks for sharing!
The best instructable I've seen on jerky making. Very well presented and very well done, sir.
Awesome smokey jerky:) I loved my smoky mountain:)
Hey Linda, it was a little hard to maintain such a low temp in the WSM, but after a couple hours of fiddling with the vents, she did hold steady until the coals were about gone. Thanks for watching!
You sir, just made my mouth water like a fountain.., i just watched both of your beef jerky videos, and i know what i am gonna be doing next weekend!. Thank you for making my evening alot better! :)
You are very welcome! I appreciate your support and I'm sure you will love the jerky. It doesn't get any better than homemade!!
You my friend, have a new subscriber. Good job!
+Jorge Navarrete (Mike) Hey Mike, thanks very much!!! Glad you enjoyed the video and I appreciate the sub!!! Cheers!
Just a man enjoying his life as he pleases with no hesitation
Exactly!!!!! LOL
Wow, that looks like it came out awesome. Too bad we can't smell or even better yet taste it through the screen!
+OnTheFritz602 Thanks, it is a shame we don't have smell-o-vision!!! LOL
OnTheFritz602 funny you say that- One night I was asking one of my frineds, you know how they say smell-o-vision? And then I said imagine they had something like taste-vision. So yeah dude it would be awesome
That holds true for the audiophiles with their 20 thousand dollar sound systems and you listen on a Ipad.
I love how southerners are always “FIXIN” something yummy.
Someone asked me one time, "How do you store your jerky"? In my belly!
haha

Chris Jones lowl .
Hey S. Cowboy....nice quiet layed back jerkey vid....no pretences...clear and concise and I can't wait to try out that spice mix....your final product looked like decent jerkey should...at least what I would want mine to look like....drinkin a beer to ya brother....nice job! Zombie Vittles!
When you say teaspoon, are you sure you didn't mean to say tablespoon? Cause that looks like you have one hell of a teaspoon.
Yes, you are correct. That should have been tablespoons. I love doing unscripted videos, but sometimes mistakes do happen. Also, when doing a marinade, there isn't much difference in the flavor of the marinade between a tablespoon or a teaspoon because there is so much liquid involved. It's all good!!! LOL Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching!
Unscripted best way ;)
I thought it looked a lot
I'm glad someone else asked, since I had the same question and came back to look at it again and was going to go with a much larger teaspoon. I just bought all these spices. OUCH!! on the price of Chipolte Powder. Might have to make a side batch with mild Chile powder to see if I notice the difference.

Troy is basically the man. I have been watching get his dudes videos like crazy. Love the jerky and dry aged beef videos. Subscribed!
+Dereck Liebscher Hey Dereck, I appreciate the kind words and thanks very much for the support. Glad to have you on board buddy!!! Happy New Year!!!!
Damn this is food porn! After watching a few hours of jerky videos, I ended up ordering a dehydrator....
Camera skills, recipe, and personality come together to make this a great video
***** Thank you very much Eric. I appreciate the kind words and glad you enjoyed the video!
rhett from good mythical morning looks just like you
He's my son! LOL j/k
T-ROY COOKS 😂😂
Brandon Burg yep that has to be his dad
Jesus that looks delicious. A whole stack of fresh jerky. Lord give me strength.
I absolutely love this channel!
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD STUFF
Holy crap! The little picture on the right side made me drool on my keyboard! Then I watched the video, looks tasty!
Ha!!! Glad you liked the video Steve!!! I appreciate you watching!
DOGGY where'd you go? 1:52
Jason Lee he wanted dat jerky
Thanks Troy. You made the process easy to follow.
You are welcome Walter and I appreciate your comment. Thanks for watching!!
try using Himalayan Salt instead of bleached.
no it ain't.
Himalayan salt is the best. its forgiving. i never use sea or table salt any more.
salt is not salt.. use the pink stuff next time..
one recommendation i might add, depending where you live. maube take the Jerky out a bit early. it will continue to dry for a bit. this way you have a more moist veef stick as it rest.
Salt is salt. One has additional minerals, but it is still salt with trace minerals.
RUDE OUT LLC Went to the salt mines in Peru, where the salt comes from a natural spring in the mountains. The best salt is called Flower salt It is found on the top layer of the salt mines. The Pink salt is found at the bottom layer of the mines. That is were it gets its color from, since the salt mixes with the mudd. The locals won't touch that salt, they look at it as not good. Though they cannot understand why the Japanese are willing to pay top dollar for it.
armadillotoe Actually the pink is NOT minerals, it's ALGAE, lol. Now a lot of sea salt does have an extra ingredient!
IT'S MERCURY!
However, "salt is not salt". In some recipes the iodine in table salt can cause problems. Also in other recipes, such as a popular tenderization method, the texture is pretty important so course salt is better than fine.
Other than those small differences, you are right.
Thanks for the vids! I just got me an 18.5! I know I will love it!
Congrats Tim!!! You will love that WSM. Just remember that it'll take 4-6 cooks before it will get seasoned and maintain temps the way it should. Thanks buddy!
I watched until I saw the charcoal, sorry.
Mike West Dude you can do the same thing, replace it with LUMP charcoal.
It looks great. My hubby is drooling. He loves jerky.
Thanks Bebe, sounds like you need to make your hubby some jerky! LOL
T-Roy, Appreciate the prompt reply. I have to get that done this weekend. Think I will try some round and flank. My WSM should arrive this weekend. 😃
+Christopher Lewis My pleasure Chris. I have tried both cuts for making jerky and my preference is Round steak. Flank is good also if you like narrower slices of jerky, but it does have more marbling than round steak which can make the jerky go rancid quicker. Of course, if you eat the jerky within a couple weeks, it really doesn't matter which cut you use! LOL Congrats on the WSM!!! You are going to love it!!!
👍👍nice one. Thank you. I love it. I will try it home. in Riyadh Saudi Arabia
Thanks Troy! I took your recipe and altered it just a bit.
I boiled 1 cup of water and dissolved all the seasonings plus 1/4 cup of brown sugar in it for my sweetness. I also added a cap full of liquid smoke. I used a couple London Broil cuts instead of flank. Otherwise I followed it to a T. Smoked it on my WSM could only keep mine around 185F, but it turned out amazing. We had a big party and people said it was better than any jerky they'd have ever eaten. My wife loved it so much I'm making more today.
Great video. Tried it today, and the kids are loving it. Now they want it for dinner :) Thumbs up from Denmark.
I"m so glad your family enjoyed the recipe. Thank you very much!!!
Your welcome. Did not use all that pepper and chili ;)
After almost 3 years, here I come again, and still impressed!!
Hey Gilvin, great to hear from you once again!!! I appreciate the support!
Hey Troy, Great job in the Jerky. Looks wonderful. Marvellous what you can make hey.
Thanks Angie! Jerky is a great snack and this recipe was great!
I really don't know why but thank u sir. Your video just made me so happy
Thanks David, glad you enjoyed the video. Homemade jerky is some good stuff!!! Have a great Summer!!
I'm all about having a good snack hanging around the house. Can't wait to make my own jerky. Cool stuff.
Made some recently. This came out bangin’. Thanks T-Roy!
Glad you enjoyed the recipe! I need to make more jerky myself!!!! Cheers!!!!
This recipe is legit! I used 1/4" thick eye of round cut into "sticks" and smoked it on a 26" weber kettle with some kingsford charcoal and hickory for around 7 hrs @ 225ish. Came out awesome. Thanks so much for sharing!
T-Roy: I made this on my WSM. When I say insanely good, I really think that is an understatement! Brought it to work, people said it was the best jerkey they ever had. Great recipe. Has kick! Thank you for posting and showing us how to do this! I plan on checking out some of your other posts. Thanks again.
Thanks for the feedback Brett!!! I'm pleased to hear that everyone enjoyed the recipe. It sounds like you'll be making more batches very soon? LOL
Man in man! My mouth won't stop watering.
I just came across this video and man does it look good!
I will be trying this receipe out and smoking beef jerkey for my first time. Wish me luck and thanks!
Thanks!!! It's super easy to do. You just need to try to maintain a low temp of 150-175F until the jerky is dry enough for your liking. And the best part is that you can tweak the recipe for the marinade each batch until you get it just the way you like it. You'll never buy store bought jerky again once you get it how you like it. You'll do fine!!! Thanks for watching!!!
I made the beef jerky yesterday. I used your recipe on some thin-sliced brisket. I used a similar smoker (different brand) and made it in 2 batches. The first batch (my first ever) was on there for about 3 hours. I used a gallon of water and never checked it while it was cooking - it all charred and was not edible. The 2nd batch - I put about a gallon and a half of water in and checked it about every 30 minutes. It cooked for a total of about 2 hours and is absolutely perfect. Thanks for the detailed video. I never would have tried it otherwise.
I'm happy to hear that it worked on your cooker Andy. Each cooker is a little different, but it sounds like you will now be making your own homemade jerky. I'm glad you gave my recipe a try and liked it. Thanks so much for watching!!
Just finished following this recipe and the results are amazing. So impressed. I have a gas smoker and the lowest setting is a bit hotter so I had about 4.5# of Jerky ready in a little over 3 hours. The spice is great, the added pepper is a good idea too. Super excited about making more types of jerky.
Thanks for the followup comment. Making jerky is fun!!! There's no limit to the different ways to season it. Have fun and thanks again for watching! Have a wonderful week!!
T ROY that's the best lookin jerky I ever seen great job.
Awesome T-Roy. Your making me hungry man !!
Good work. I am going to start making my own Jerky here in Australia.
Thanks !
Royalbigness Fantastic!!! I appreciate you watching and thanks for the sub! Hope you enjoy the homemade jerky. You won't want to ever buy jerky from your local grocery again!
I'm making this right now and if you use a gallon Ziploc bag you can cut the ingredients in half. I'm using eye of round and will finish it in a dehydrator. Man I love beef jerky and keep up the awesome videos!
Oh yeah I love jerky!!!! Good stuff specially for outdoor days
Nice video, well explained and lots of good information here. Thanks! I will be giving this a go for sure.
Lifesaver mate, think I'm getting one of these for Christmas for this exact same reason after upgrading from an electric dehydrator
Oh dayum buddy...that would be some killer road munchies. Looks incredible bro
Dude, I did this on an akorn grill and its the best jerkey i have ever had.....thank you!!!!!!
+duerrs Thanks, glad you enjoyed the recipe! Sorry for the late response, I've been on vacation.
Looks great. Last year smoked 9 lb. of bottom round and gave it as Christmas gifts to my guys at work. Yea, they are looking forward for more this year. I us 8 stainless steel welding rods 1/8th dia. and hang my jerky on as it smokes in a 40in. Masterbuilt. Will try your comb. of spices this go around. Thanks for sharing.
That's the fun thing about making homemade jerky, you can keep playing around with the ingredients. I appreciate you watching and hope you have a wonderful Christmas!!!
Wicked man. Gonna give it a try once the weather here in the U.K. warms up a bit. Got an old water pressure baffle welded with legs and a flue with an opening with grill in it. Should work a treat. Thanks for the recipe will let you know.
Go for it!!! It is a great jerky recipe. I appreciate you watching and if you give this recipe a try, please let me know how you like it. I've had a lot of folks leave me feedback saying it's an amazing recipe! Cheers, Troy
"Smells like a fine cigar" I'm hooked!
+John Sandoval Now your talkin' John!!! Thanks buddy!
Looks sooooo delicious !!! And easy clean up !!! Thank You and God Bless
Yep, it is easy to make jerky. The hard part was waiting for it to marinate in the fridge. Thanks for watching and God Bless you too Susan!
In.....thank god, someone who just gets into it and does a good job editing their video. Made me hungry. I am going to try Jerky for the first time on my WSM this weekend. Can't wait.
+Upchuck Connors Thanks very much! I am confident that you will enjoy the jerky you make and you won't want to buy store bought jerky again after tasting it homemade!!! Cheers!!!
Great video. Can't wait to get a smoker and give it a go. Very easy to understand and thanks for the extra info
Thomas Moorhouse Thanks Thomas, glad I could help. I appreciate you watching!!!
Great video, and the music was just perfect. I'm going to try your recipe now. Keep them coming. God bless.
Hey Jose, I hope you do try the recipe and please let me know what you think. Thanks for watching and God Bless you too!!!
Love the music! That electric organ is just great!
Hey Troy, big fan. thanks for shooting this video and sharing this recipe. I really want to try it!
Hi Kaden, thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed the video. Hope you do give it a try. I've had a lot of compliments on the jerky recipe. I appreciate the comment and thanks for watching!!!
Awesome video bro! I enjoyed it and thanks for the recipe!
G'day there T-Roy! I've gotta say your beef jerky rocks man!
I've been buying jerky for years and got so sick of the price of it. So I started watching vids on how to make it and I gotta say
your videos are the best out there man! I've now made this many times using hickory wood and am selling 100g bags of it at work for $10 (Australian) and cant keep up with the demand. Even my butcher now gives me extra meat for a couple of bags. I feel like I owe you a commission. The least I could do was to get on here and thank you very much for your outstanding work on here brother!!
I appreciate the feedback Daz and I'm glad you are spreading the love of homemade jerky. Cheers to ya mate!!!
Great job,Brother!!! That jerky just looks superb.Rock On!!!
Thanks GB! It turned out really good! Rock on brother!
good stuff man i think i might try this during the weekend for snacks at work lol ty brotha
+Richard Valdez Glad you enjoyed the video Richard. I hope you do give the recipe a try. I wouldn't steer you wrong my friend!!! Cheers bro!!!
that is an awesome batch of jerky man, thanks for the video!!! Gonna try to do this myself for the first time ever.. appreciate the detail of the steps, keep posting!
Will do, thanks Emanuel. Glad my videos can help folks like yourself. That's why I do them! Cheers to ya! Troy
This is the most beautiful beef jerky I've ever seen :) very good job !
Thanks very much Marion. It didn't last long. We ate it all up real quick! LOL
These will be great on the go road trip yeah buddy!!!!
I am glad I stumbled upon your channel yesterday. My goal is to get a smoker by spring so I can make this. Now I have to see if you have a good brisket video.
See if I can get my folks to bring up a brisket from HEB or Granzin's when they come up here to Minnesota to visit.
Thank you for checking out my channel John. I do have a few good brisket videos and I show how it looks cooked on different smokers. Yeah, we do love our HEB!!! Have a wonderful weekend!!!
Great video mate - cheers from Albury Australia 🍻
Just took the Jerky off the smoker today and FANTASTIC! Thanks again for the great receipe. I will be posting a short video with the Jerky on the smoker and your name will be mentioned in the video. Awesome!!!
I'm glad you gave it a try and liked the jerky. Warm jerky is the best!! Let me know when your video is up!! Thanks!!
Thanks for the recipe! Going to give it a try. Will check back in with results! Cheers!!
Hi Troy!
Local grocer had Top round on special today. I bought four lbs for jerky.
I found this video very helpful!
It will be my first time using my WSM.
Thanks for sharing bro!
Keep making your show really like
Hi T-Roy, i just got a weber smokey mountain & did your jerky. It was fantastic. You do some great videos, doing some ribs today
Thanks for making the video. I've yet to use my WSM yet but I'm glad I'll be able to make jerky in it, as nothings better than homemade jerky
Thanks for watching Adam. I believe I used the Minion method for the coals on this video. Next time I do jerky on the WSM, I think I will try the snake method to help keep the temps low. The WSM is a fine smoker, so get your smoke going and use that WSM!!
T-ROY COOKS Im currently about 1 1/2 hours in so far... I had a terrific "dry run" last night, maintained about 150-165 for about 8 hours... even threw on the fatty parts of my london broil as a test, dog loved it after i was done... so this morning I started off, WAY too many coals.. ended up starting to BBQ the jerky as i was upwards of 250-285... so I removed half my coals and now she's at about 160 for the past hour or so... so that's good... we'll see how it looks a bit later on. I used the modified minion myself and threw in about 4 pieces of hickory
Welp she's all done smoking. I think I should have pulled it maybe an hour ago, as it's a bit dryer than I was hoping for. It's not leathery but a bit on the darker side. Not bad for my first try. I had it smoking for 6 hours total, 5 would have been plenty since I maintained 150-160 the entire time, not dropping below 150 at all. 3/4 through I switched to the snake method as my coals were almost out, snake method seems to work best as its real consistent.
Your recipe is tasty, bit on the spicier side for me (and I left out the chipotle since I could not find it). I did add a cup of jack daniels to the mixture though. Next time I might leave out the Cayenne pepper, but yeah... not bad... thanks for the video, really helped us first time smokers... keep them coming.
***** I'm glad it worked for you. I believe the snake method is the way to go. I haven't used Jack in the marinade, but I will next time for sure!!! I appreciate the play by play and sorry I wasn't there for you earlier today. I was shooting a Turducken video which I just uploaded. Send me a PM with your info and I'll add you to my phone so you can contact me easier if needed. Glad you liked the recipe. I wouldn't worry about the color of the jerky. As long as it tastes good, that's all that really matters. And, as you say, you can tweak the recipe to your own liking. Happy New Year Adam!!!
T-ROY COOKS
It's actually pretty good. The skinny stuff is a bit well done, but that's okay. Theres something missing though... not sure what but it needs a little, something. Maybe i'll double up on the nector next recipe so it's a bit more sweeter to balance out the spicy-ness (i'm a yankee and not a huge heat fan). Keep the videos coming, they are inspiring me to start smoking (food that is)
