Notable Equipment

  • 1 Dehydrator
  • 1 Meat Tenderizer

Ingredients
  

  • 454 g lean beef
  • ¼ cup white vinegar
  • ¼ cup water
  • 2 tbsps creamed or prepared horseradish
  • 2 tbsps honey
  • 4 tsp prepared yellow mustard

Instructions

  • 1. Combine all ingredients (except for beef) in a bowl. Mix well and set aside. 
  • 2. Slice beef into about ¼" thick slices (length does not matter) and lightly tenderize with meat tenderizer. (Tenderize to obtain proper and even thickness, as well as to best allow marinade to soak into the meat)
  • 3. Slice into about 1″ - 2" wide pieces; length to preference.
  • 4. Place meat into container with marinade. Gently stir and fold to ensure all meat is coated with marinade.
  • 5. Let marinate in fridge for 12 hours. Meat will absorb much of the marinade and appear thicker.
  • 6. Arrange on a mesh lined dehydrating tray with enough room for air to circulate between the pieces (no over lapping).
  • 7. Dehydrate at 160℉ for about 6 hours. When done, meat should be dry but pliable.

Notes

  • Dehydrating time may vary (the thickness, water and fat content of the meat, as well as the humidity and altitude of your environment will impact dehydrating time)
