If you're a fan of beef jerky, you'll love this homemade version. I feel like it tastes 100 times better than the store-bought stuff! -
I made this & it's GREAT! I didn't mix it properly & some parts had more soy sauce TASTING than other pieces. I KNOW I used more meat than stated & the marinade was VERY thick. I also used a lot more garlic as OUR personal taste. Not sure if it's fair to give it 4 stars since I tweaked it for our liking but EITHER way, I WILL make it again this time following the meat portions.
