Glad you enjoyed the video. The recipe details are in the description of the video. Hope you like it and thanks for watching!
Tried this recipe with beef today since I wasn't lucky on getting a bambi yet while hunting. Was very delicious, thank you for sharing this to us!
Great to hear! Glad you like it and thanks for watching!
I’ve watched numerous videos on RUclips in preparation for elk camp and the this one sold me. Gonna have to give it a go in the next few days! I appreciate you sharing it… Go brewers!
I’ll be doing it again this weekend as I head to Colorado next week! I’m gonna make mine a little spicier since the kids won’t be getting their hands on this batch. Good luck and go brewers indeed!
I made some last week it wasn't much good ,definitely going to use your method mine wasn't to good can't wait to try it thanks for posting
Nice work brotha!! Looking forward to doing mine tomorrow..
Good luck! Thanks for the comment. Refine what tastes good to you but the process is solid.
I just used your recipe to make jerky for the first time... I think this will be the first and only recipe I ever use mate!!!👍
That’s great to hear! Thanks for watching and appreciate the comment!
Good video my friend. I like you having your family involved in the hunt. Awesome.
Gotta start em young!!!
Appreciate the kind words and thanks for watching.
Great video. Just found you guys on RUclips. Thanks for giving grandma some props !!!
She deserves all the credit. It was the only way dad made it growing up. It’s taste matches the nostalgia of it. Thanks for watching and great to hear from you. Hope all is well!
@@geminiridgeoutdoors5354 awesome videos. Been catching up on them. Let me know if you guys are interested in laying the smack down on some Vernon county giants !!!
This was a great video. Very easy to follow. I'm gonna use your recipe
That must mean you got a deer! Congrats! Thanks for watching. The process is simple. I like to play around with flavors but my kids love this recipe so it’s a staple in the house.
@@geminiridgeoutdoors5354 thanks! Yes, I harvested a good size doe a few days ago with my muzzleloader. I may add some red pepper flakes to mine too for a little kick.
Sounds amazing! I’m currently in the woods now looking for some jerky to walk though. Good luck the rest of the year!
@@geminiridgeoutdoors5354 thank you! Same to you!
I have the same ancient dehydrator and I’m about to try this.
Nice. Thing has to be at least 25 years old. Still works wonders! Thanks for watching!
Looks great! My favorite is HI Country seasoning! Will try this though
I’ll have to give that seasoning a try! Thanks for watching!
As a ski who lives in Wisconsin, your shirt selection is top notch.
Dziękuję (Thank You). I hail from Thorp. Lots of us skis running around there. Thanks for watching sir!
Great video. Like the slight humor - similar to the seasoning - just the right amount works.
Thanks
Thanks! I try to inject some humor in all my videos. What is life without some laughter. Thanks again for watching.
I literally saw you go back to your childhood when you took that first bite.
I’m telling ya…I remember my exact thought I had, following my dad out of the garage into the kitchen and snagging it out of the bowl (still warm) before he could even package it. It might not even taste good for all I know but the memory is enough. Thanks for watching!
Same recipe that I use but a few years ago I started substituting the liquid smoke with allegro. I like it better.
Wait?….the secret family recipe is known!?!? 😀 I’ll have to try that. Thanks for watching!
Making some now..
I need some more!!!
How long do you normally dehydrate for? Also what temp do you think the dehydrator is running at? I am new to this and just got a big Cabelas 80L dehydrator.
My dehydrator is like 30 years old so I’m not sure what temp it runs at. Typically dehydrator ms won’t reach high enough to get the internal temp to 160 which is recommended. Some people will throw in a oven to ensure safe meat by bringing to temp. I will be completely honest…I don’t. I usually consume my jerky within 2-3 days and always refrigerate when done. If you want to keep longer, use a curing salt and throw it in the oven after dehydrating. I can’t say about the newer units…they may reach a specific temp. Hope that helps!
Gonna give it a go just got a full deer and was wondering what to do with some of it, will let you know how it goes
Excellent! Just make sure the meat is room temp before you start. You won’t be disappointed. Thank you for watching.
Kieran I apologize. My feed showed that you commented to a different video. With that said good luck on your jerky adventure. Remember, this is the process, don’t be afraid to add flavors that you enjoy. Thanks again.
I followed this and am about to put it in the dehydrator. What temp do I put it on
If you can set temp to 160 that is what the usda suggests for safe consumption. Good luck!!
Is there any cooking involved or does the dehydrator have enough heat to where it essentially cooks it just curious?
The dehydrator will reach different temps, this one is at 140-145. If you really want to be on the safe side, throw the jerky in the oven at 275 for 10 minutes so it reaches 160 deg internal temperature. Thanks for watching!
Just wondering if you take that clear film off of the meat the talo part
I try to get the meat as lean as possible. Certain cuts like the top and bottom round are easier to work with when it comes to jerky. If there is a little silver skin it won’t really effect the taste, just be chewier. Just make sure there is no fat on it because that will give it an off taste.
Already broke the rule... Used all my loins . Just placed on the dryer . Ill let you know in a few hrs. Thanks for the tips .
A guys gotta do what a guys gotta do! I forgive you😂. Thanks for watching!
New subscriber here I loved your video. I have 10lbs. of Venison marinating in the fridge right now. It’s from a Fallow Buck my daughter killed a couple of weeks back. I used a recipe very similar to yours. I have a small RUclips channel that shows us before and after our hunts and fishing trips. Go check it out, my daughter has Down Syndrome but she’s really high functioning and LOVES hunting and fishing. On that trip she got a Spike Fallow Buck, a nice Axis Doe and I got my first Turkey 🦃. A 20lb. Rio Tom with a 10.5” Beard and 1 1/4” Spurs. Can’t wait to see more of your videos.
Thanks for watching! I love doing it. I’m headed to your channel now. I can’t wait to get my kids into hunting more. Right now they love fishing and have sat with me a few times. It’s going to get fun in the next couple of years.
What temperature do you set the dehydrator to?
It’s recommended that venison jerky reach 160 degrees. Some will place in an oven first to achieve that, then dehydrate. Or vice versa. If your dehrydrator can set to that temp then I would start with that. With that said, if I’m eating it fresh I don’t worry about reaching that temp. The majority of times I cook venison I do not let it reach that temp and if consumed fresh you will be fine. Eating any “undercooked” red meats has a risk and the 160 degree recommendation comes from the usda for food safety. Hope that helps.
Would you add curing salt right into the marinade mix?
Yup. Just don’t add the regular salt too. Curing salt is going guarantee safe food and longer storage. Or you could heat the strips to 160 degrees in an oven first, placing on a tray for 10 minutes at 300 degrees. It’s just another option for those that don’t want to use a preservative. Hope that helps.
Gemini Ridge Outdoors
Definitely. Thanks!
I always add the cure with the marination.
Always use the back strap just don't give that away to just anyone 😉. I do a whole deer when I do mine. I make mine a little thicker and have all different kinds of recipes. Nice video
is there a temperature setting for the dehydrator?
This particular unit has only one setting. Roughly 145 degrees. I consume the venison quickly but if you want to be really safe, place the jerky in an oven at 275 degrees for roughly ten minutes. This should be enough for the jerky to reach 160 degrees internal temp to be completely sure and safe.
I made some venison jerky and I'm a fan of hunting deer. But when I dehydrate deer jerky It has a good and different taste except the fat of venison jerky if there is any would have a game taste that kind of sucks, but beef jerky taste better for some reason, even the fat taste awesome. Right now I've just sliced 10 lbs of beef jerky and marinade it in Worcestershire and Teriyaki with Hickory and teriyaki spices and cure. After slicing the fat off of the beef jerky I had more like 8 lbs. and I suppose that when I dehydrate the jerky in the dehydrators I'll have about 6 lbs of dried jerky.
Yeah. You really don’t want to have the fat on there. Certain cuts work better. Yours sounds like it is going to be pretty damn tasty. Good luck and let me know how it goes!
@@geminiridgeoutdoors5354 I've discarded most of the fat, except for the little amounts of fat.
p.s. did you add the link for the recipe?
I procrastinated way too long on that. Just posted it in the description. That’s the base but don’t be afraid to make it your own. That’s the fun part. I hope you enjoy it!
I use basically the same but instead of pepper and brown sugar I put Serrano peppers and Texas Pete peppers in a blender and add that to marinade.
Hot damn! That sounds delicious!
Looks like a simple but perfect recipe! My 7 yo isn't a big pepper fan....do your kids comment on the spice of the pepper? Could you compare it to a commercial flavor? I've got a bottom and a top round in the fridge thawing getting ready to make some jerky to take on my mountain bear pursuit.
Without the cracked pepper on top the spice is very mild. It’s probably more salty than spicy. I like adding the cracked for that extra kick. One of my kids thinks water is spicy but he loves the original recipe without the outer layer of pepper. Good luck on the bear hunt!! Thanks for watching!
What setting was it on low or high?
This old thing doesn’t have a setting. Just turns on/off. Whatever setting you are using I would check it after 3 hours and every hour after that. Depending on the thickness of the cut and how you like it, pull as desired. A low or high setting would work either way. Just a difference in time and maybe heat production. Good Luck!
I have some jerky in the dehydrator now (first time) that was in the freezer for a couple of days prior. Did not use curing salt, but dehydrator is set to 165 for 6 hours. Do you recommend putting in the oven afterwards for safety? I assume that the dehydrator set to 165 won’t actually get the meat to 160. Thanks for your help.
Recommendations are that you do bring it to temp either before or after dehydrating. With that said, nobody I know that uses a dehydrator puts it in the oven. I am always safe when preparing food but this is one recommendation I just haven’t taken to. With that said, the jerky I make is always taken care of meticulously in the field, vacuum sealed, stored in the freezer or consumed in a couple of days. I hope that helps and thanks for watching!
@@geminiridgeoutdoors5354
Thanks for this response. We cooked our batch in our dehydrator for about 4 hours and they were stiff and dry and we tried some and I wanted to google to make sure we did right and got scared because they said to freeze the meat for thirty days to get rid of parasites and cook to an internal temp of 165 before dehydrating and we didn’t do any of that but have already tried some!
@@emilinebelle7811 I always check every hour when dehydrating. Every machine is built different so it’s good to keep an eye on it. To be safe, use a curing salt, and bring to the recommended temp by baking before or after. No need to freeze before or after that. I eat my jerky within 3-4 days and always keep refrigerated, so I’m not as worried about shelf life. I would try cutting thicker if the jerky was too crispy. It can be a learning process but one worth it. Thanks!
@@geminiridgeoutdoors5354
So, do you think we will get sick? We’ve already ate some and it was delicious.
@@emilinebelle7811 definitely not. You are safe! When they talk about parasites they are talking trichinosis. That is rarely, if ever, found in deer. Also, if you are okay eating a backstrap medium rare…fresh jerky is safer than that. If you don’t finish it, refrigerate it and consume throughout the week if you didn’t use a curing salt. Enjoy it! Thanks for watching!
Can I use my grounded up venison?
I have never tried it but I bet it would work just fine. I don’t see any reason why it wouldn’t. Let me know how it turns out! Thanks for watching.
pretty nice video lol
Thank you! I try to inject some humor to keep things light. Thanks for watching!
@@geminiridgeoutdoors5354 you welcome that makes it even better my friend!
What was that packet you didn’t use I’ve only had my venison frozen for 2 months now
Curing salt. If you use this salt, you may have to adjust the rest of the salt (mainly soy sauce) in the recipe. You might want to try a low sodium version so you still have the same amount of liquid for the marinade, but not the full sodium of a regular soy sauce. Thanks for watching!!
NICE POLISH LAD I AM A OLD BUT NICE POLISH FELLA. GOOD JOB. PS: I HAVE CRESTLINER TOO!! NICE.
Polish people unite! Love my crestliner! Thanks for watching ski!
What temp did u dehydrate it at?
160-165 is recommended. The meat will not reach that so the recommendation is to bring to temp afterward in the oven. However I will tell you that I have never done that and don’t know many people that have when using a dehydrator. Thanks for watching! I really appreciate it.
My problem is when I check mine and rotate the trays I have to sample a little piece.. by the time it's done I have ate over half....
Hahaha. That’s a good problem! How can one serve to family and friends without sampling?
Hard to time and temp in most videos 8H what temp? I know it depends the cut
My dehydrator is very old but I’ve used it a lot. I basically go by how I want the jerky to feel in terms of toughness to get an idea of when it’s done. For safe consumption jerky should reach 160 deg. If your jerky has a temp setting, cook at 145-155 for 4-5 hours. Then put in a 275 deg oven for about 10 minutes to finish it off if you really want to be sure. As you said though, thickness can change this quite a bit so if you are really stuck, get a meat thermometer to make the process easier. Hope that helps and thanks for watching.
Temp setting u use?
145-155 brotha. Good luck!
Do you not use curing salt?
I did not for this recipe as it was consumed very quickly. I would recommended it if you plan on storing or not eating it quickly. If you do, you may have to adjust the salt in the original recipe. I think adding the curing salt, regular salt, and soy sauce would just be too much. Thanks for watching!
Temp?
Bruh what setting was your dehydrator on?
This old thing is a plug and play. No settings. If you have a setting…USDA recommends getting meat up to 160 to kill bacteria. That can also be achieved by putting in the oven before or after dehydration if your unit doesn’t have temps that high. Good luck!
No link for recipe
It’s in the description now. I apologize for the delay. Thanks again for watching.
Am I missing something? Where is the link to the recipe?
You know what…you are right. I swore I had it in there. I will add it tonight. I apologize for that and thanks for letting me know.
I don’t see the recipe either but I like the way I season my jerky. I just wanted to see how someone else did theirs. I don’t use
Iiquid at all. I only use powdered spices.
Nice shirt my dude!!!
Small update but it’s in the description
Where is the recipe link??
It’s in there now. So sorry for the delay.
@@geminiridgeoutdoors5354 all good
wh*** sauce... i feel you on that one. Can we get a company rep on here to clear this up for everyone?
I still do not know the proper pronunciation 😂 Thanks for watching!
Wuss, as in yer mates a wuss
Tur, as in the start of turd
Shur, as in the beginning of shirt.
All together you got it nailed mate.
I have to be right because I’m drinking tea. Good day to you sir and have a fine evening 🤘🏼🤠🤘🏼
Hi mine name is Ridge and I'm a gemini lol 😆 🙃
Our mascot!!!!! 😂
Woos ter shire sauce it’s how it’s pronounced
You aren’t leading me astray are you? 😄 If I say it like that on my next video and get made fun of…..
@@geminiridgeoutdoors5354 you have my word 😂
Unless another Brit has informed you Worcester sauce is pronounced Wouster sauce. 😊
You are the first!!!
All I have is back strap sorry man😂
Do what you must sir! 😅
Couldn’t find a recipe link. From video…For 3 lbs meat:
1 T liquid smoke
1 t salt
1 T brown sugar
2 T white vinegar
2 T Worcester sauce
1/4 C soy sauce
1 t pepper
1 t garlic powder
+|- curing salt. Use slightly less than 1/4 t per pound meat.
I’ve drug my feet on this. Appreciate the post. I’m doing it tonight!! Thanks again!
That is more like a 1/8"
If you say so brotha….you are the only man who short changes himself in measuring his “things”. Lol. I usually do different thicknesses because the kids like crunchy and dad likes some chewiness. It is jerky after all.
I can't say it neither
Hahahaha. The worlds greatest mystery!
Ummmm... must have missed these samples in the clinic. Hmmm.
Roland ATC did you see how fast the kids were eating it. Lol.
was looking for 'dehydrator made beef jerky' videos and was just going to click through this venison jerky clip [i have no source for venison] but the tshirt made me pause and decided to watch... came here as a 14 y/o with my family back in 1980 on a political asylum status after giving the commies a slip back when the bleedin' soviet union still tyrannized my country of birth and it was officially called polska rzeczpospolita ludowa... ugh... thankfully that's now history and the white eagle has its crown rightfully back so the country is officially in its 3rd iteration of rzeczpospolita, i.e. the 'res publica'...
now, if i could only get my paws on a few pounds of lean venison cut, alas i currently have no friends who hunt and i'm too crippled to be able to hunt myself...
meanwhile the friggin' deer here in joysie have completely lost their inherent fear of humans and , barely 35 minutes from nyc, have the nerve to obliterate fruit trees/veggie garden right in front of you at all times of the day/night 365 days a year, looking you right in the eye as they do so... they leisurely will finally saunter off only when one comes within a few feet of them and they'll only walk far enough and stop to keep sufficient distance to know that a human can't close in before they could safely bolt away... wish homeowners could just shoot these garden/orchard/yard vandals and thus once again put the natural fear back into the collective supposedly wild game but no dice... hell, 'hunting' such 'wild game' would require absolutely no stalking or effort whatsoever, as the basic perennial laws of freakin' mother nature have completely been obliterated and redefined lately... so much venison strollin' around the suburbia yet no chance to eat it hehe... :)
Thanks for the comment my friend. I too enjoy a challenge when pursuing “wild” game, but if you need a guy to thin the herd and fill your freezer with venison, I might know a guy! Here in my neighborhood they have implemented some bow hunting to thin the population. I just prefer the deep timber to chase them myself, but I bet the garden fed critters taste great! I always get reactions for that t shirt. I’m proud to be Polish with a last name like Krzyzanowski. I’ve always felt it stood out, especially where I live now. Thank you so much again for the comment and response. I hope you enjoyed the video!
Dziękuję
Jesse
@@geminiridgeoutdoors5354 hey jesse, i'll go off on a tangent here a bit, not much to do with your deer jerky video although it's somewhat related because all i can think of when i see deer and other wild game/fowl destroying crops in our backyard is venison ribs roasted over a spit, venison burgers, stew or jerky....
if they're allowing folks to at least bow hunt deer in a suburban area where you reside they're certainly smarter than the idiots here where i live in suburban nj...but what can one expect from ultra leftist communities whose hearts bleed for all the wrong reasons and would love nothing more than ban not only hunting but firearms in general... smart people know that wild game should remain wild and must retain the fear of humans in order to survive naturally... domesticated deer spread ticks and diseases and destroy gardens/trees of people who are trying to grow some of their own veggies/fruits...
hell, not only one would be jailed here for shooting a deer which for example is caught blatantly destroying 6-10 year old cherry or apple trees [and neighbors would happily report anyone trying this] in one's yard but the local code doesn't allow residential fences over 6' tall and deer can easily jump that height so any practical food/edible gardens around here are doomed even if one could splurge on fencing one's property... we thought of paying to have our 1/3 acre property fenced but it wouldn't help much so we decided to save ourselves the cost...
instead, we can only watch those cheeky bastards as they lay around in the shade in groups of 5+ around our property when they're not busy munching on everything we try to grow and it's like they know that we can't harm them...
i understand the need for hunting laws and regulations but when 'wild game' is no longer wild, people should be allowed to shoot a friggin' deer on ones property if it's destroying one's painstakingly cultivated and nurtured several year old fruit tree or an entire plot of crops just as it's approaching its harvest phase... and be allowed to keep at least some of that meat and thus put to use videos like yours...
:-D
silly humans of the kind who have shit for brains and lack any common sense have managed to turn the basic laws of mother nature on its head... we live about 1/2 hour from nyc, yet we have bears, foxes, coyotes, etc literally roaming our backyards at will... in fact all of those critters are most likely much more commonly seen here than in alaska and other wilderness frontiers hehe...wild turkeys will often just stop in the middle of an intersection and become aggressive towards cars/pedestrians... i always thought wild turkey were supposed to be the most elusive, easily spooked wild fowl, not around here they aren't...if this continues, people who live in the sticks will soon be travelling to nyc and suburbs just to see the freakin' wildlife haha...
if i weren't severely crippled i'd move to a more conservative state long ago and happily live in the sticks on a few or more acres, away from people while being content to observe the actual wildlife which still has the proper inherent fear of humans instilled within its genes and behavior but can't afford such a move...
ok, rant's over, appreciate the reply, very cute kids btw, i've neglected to mention in my initial comment... meanwhile i'll have to make do with store bought beef instead of venison for my jerky needs... at least before we're all forced to eat lab grown non-meat; can't make proper jerky out of that nor crickets/grasshoppers... czesc brachu...
:)))
You gave up the secret recipe!!!!! You fool!
Sorry!
Looks like charcoal
Thanks? I will say this…. If you like jerky, you will enjoy this recipe. Give it a try! Thanks for watching.
