Easy Microwave Deer Jerky Recipe

Microwave Venison Jerky Recipe

Ingredients:
about 1/2 lb deer venison (can also use elk or any other Big Game) Trim off all fat
1/4 tsp sea salt
1/3 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
1 and 1/4 tsp meat seasoning (like Lawry's or Accent, this is where you can get creative)
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup water
6 drops liquid smoke

Make:
Cut meat into  strips about 1/8 inch thick and an inch wide, which is easier if it is a little bit frozen.
Combine all of the ingredients and place with meat in a sealed container or freezer zip bag. Make sure meat is well mixed with the ingredients.
Refrigerate overnight (or at least several hours)  to completely marinate the venison.
Take the meat out of marinade sauce and place the  strips on a microwave roasting rack. They need to have airspace all around them. (Throw out the marinade sauce, do not keep)
Set the microwave on high for 5 minutes.
After 5 minutes check and add time in around 30 second increments.
The idea is to have a dried jerky, which means the meat has changed to a leathery texture - not brittle.
Store in an airtight container
