Cook Deer Jerky in the Oven


There are many different ways to fix deer meat, one of which is to make jerky out of it. Making jerky is simple and inexpensive, though it does takes a while to finish. This dried meat stores well, plus you can take it wherever you go. Add this to my Recipe Box.


Instructions


1. Put the deer meat in the freezer until it's barely frozen.


2. Combine the spices into a large bowl, then add the soy sauce and the Worcestershire sauce. Whisk the sauces and spices together.








3. Take the deer meat out of the freezer and slice it into 1/8-inch thick strips.


4. Put the deer strips in the bowl of marinade, making sure the meat is completely covered. Cover the bowl with a lid or aluminum foil and put it in the fridge for 12 hours.


5. Remove the bowl of marinaded strips of deer meat from the fridge, and place the strips on paper towels.l Gently squeeze as much moisture as possible out of the meat.


6. Cover two baking sheets with aluminum foil, and wrap an oven rack in aluminum foil.


7. Preheat the oven to 150 degrees F.


8. Insert toothpicks into the ends of the strips of marinaded deer meat, and hang each toothpick from the oven rack. You also can lay each strip of deer meat directly on the oven racks.


9. Leave the oven door slightly ajar, and cook the strips for six hours or until they're thoroughly dry but not brittle or mushy. If you put the strips on the oven racks instead of hanging them, turn the meat every two hours.


10. Store the deer jerky in a resealable plastic bag or a tightly sealed container until ready to eat.
