Preparation method
Wash the meat, pat it dry, and place it in the freezer for about 2–3 hours. This will firm it up, making it much easier to slice into very thin pieces later.
Meanwhile, prepare the marinade. Press or finely grate the garlic and mix it with the soy sauce and Worcestershire sauce in a bowl. Add coarsely ground pepper, chili flakes, and any other favorite spices to taste.
Slice the slightly frozen meat as thinly as possible (approx. 3–5 mm). Turn each slice thoroughly in the marinade so that it is completely covered. Place the meat in a sealable container and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, but preferably overnight.
Chef's tip
For the best enjoyment, cut the finished beef jerky into bite-sized pieces. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. The meat will last even longer if vacuum-sealed in portions.
