How To Make venison jerky

• 1

  Mix all ingredients for the mop. If mop is to thick to brush, add more soy sauce and worchestershire sauce and pepper to taste.
• 2

  The amount of tabasco sauce and red peper I have down will make her pretty hot. I'd add these last, at least the red pepper, so you could just add to taste.
• 3

  Prep meat. Salt both sides, about twice as much as you would to fry meat if it's thick slices. If it is thin, 1/2 or 3/4 of an inch, just salt one side. DON'T USE IODIZED SALT!
• 4

  Put a few shakes of pepper on both sides also. Let it set close to 2 hours to soak in.
• 5

  Start your smoker and follow directions. Lay meat on racks.
• 6

  Smoke 4 or 5 hours or until you turn it and then mop one side heavy (Mop both sides if you want it hot)
• 7

  Smoke till it's hard: approximately 10 to 14 hours in a small smoker, Chief-hickory....etc.
