any have and good venison jerky recipes? I picked up a roadkill deer this morning, and gave the majority of it to my neighbor because I have quite a bit of venison left. He has a jerky maker so he wanted all of it done in burger and wants to do up some jerky. He has a couple recipes, but none for venison and I know beef and venison are totally different with recipes.

I have always used the seasoning kits. Nesco (I think) had a variety pack that was good. I really loved the pepperoni flavor

High Mountain is good. I think Boxboy turned me onto the stuff years ago.

2lbs Venison...I cut in strips less than a quarter of an inch thick
1/2 cup worshire sauce
1/4 cup Soy sauce
2 tsp liquid smoke
1/4 cup A1
Squirt of BBQ sauce
Hefty dash of Franks Redhot
1/4 cup brown sugar...more if u want it sweeter honey works well too
To Taste:
Onion powder
Garlic salt
Real cracked black pepper...rough cut (personally i like pepper....so use quite a bit)
Dash of dried red pepper flakes
I let it marinate for 24 to as long as 48hrs in the fridge then put it in the dehydrator......If you want the flavor stronger....you can brush some of the marinade on it half way thru drying
My measurements (1/2 cup 1/4 cup etc) are approximate....i dont use a measuring cup, just eyeball it......I make sure that the meat is completely covered but not swimming in the marinade.....I put it in gallon size Ziploc bags....and suck out as much air as i can.
Cut with the grain for more traditional jerky texture.....and make sure not to use too tender a cut of meat (ie the backstraps) as you will have jerky crumbs if its too tender....... Against the grain is more tender. With the grain results in you biting across long strands of meat so more toothy or chewy (i like my jerky chewy personally)
****One thing you can do is make a practice run...And I strongly suggest this....go buy a london broil (cut of meat).....and try it...that way if you dont like the marinade, you have only lost less than ten bucks, instead of your limited supply of venison******You can also adjust things to taste if you do the practice run
Enjoy :aok

thanks, my neighbor has a jerky gun that he uses for ground beef. I grind most of mine up because I am not much of a steak cutter :lol so if I take the burger and marinade it can use the jerky gun to make strips?

It'll work just fine, as long as you don't mind the texture you get when you do that.
MBailey's recipe is not much different from mine, plus or minus a couple ingredients, but I like it spicy.

Ive used ground turkey and chicken and it came our alright. Vension is the best but if the craving is strong then ill use burger, 85/15 or leaner depending how cheap i can get it. I forget what flavoring packets i have left
