Pioneer Woman Beef Jerky is made with top roast, gluten-free soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, oregano, liquid smoke, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder. This easy Beef Jerky recipe creates a tasty snack that takes about 4 hours and 15 minutes to prepare and makes about 3 pounds of jerky.
Ingredients Needed:
- 3 pounds top roast, rump roast, or London broil
- 1 cup gluten-free soy sauce
- 1/2 cup Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon oregano
- 2 teaspoons liquid smoke
- 2 teaspoons ground black pepper
- 2 teaspoons paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
How To Make This Beef Jerky:
- Slice the Beef: Trim any excess fat from the beef. Slice it into 1/8-inch thick slices against the grain and place in a large zip-top bag.
- Marinate the Beef: Add all the remaining ingredients to the bag. Seal the bag and massage to coat the beef evenly. Chill in the fridge for at least 45 minutes, or up to 24 hours for more flavor.
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 175ºF. Line 3 large baking sheets with foil and place metal racks on top of each pan.
- Arrange and Bake: Lay the marinated beef slices in a single layer on the racks. Bake for 3-4 hours, checking after 3 hours to see if the texture is right. Let a piece cool, then taste. If it’s perfect, remove all the beef from the oven. (Bake for 2-3 hours if using a convection oven.)
Recipe Tips
- Slice against the grain: Slicing against the grain makes the jerky more tender and easier to chew.
- Use a sharp knife: A sharp knife is essential for cutting thin, even slices of beef.
- Marinate longer for more flavor: If you have time, marinate the beef for up to 24 hours to allow the flavors to fully absorb.
- Check the jerky after 3 hours: The cooking time can vary, so start checking the jerky at the 3-hour mark for your desired texture.
How To Store Leftovers
Store the beef jerky in an airtight container at room temperature for 1 to 2 weeks to keep it fresh and chewy.
