Ingredients:
US Customary – Metric
Instructions:
-
Pour a can of zevia into a gallon size ziplock bag and add the soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, liquid smoke and add the seasonings.
-
Trim the top round of any excess fat and cut into strips to your desired size. We like them on the smaller side for easy grab and go!
-
Add the cut up strips into the marinade and shake around. Seal the bag (removing any excess air) and place the bag into a bowl so there is no leakage.
-
Place the bowl into the fridge for at least 4 hours and up to 24 hours.
-
Once the meat has marinated remove the bowl from the fridge and pat the strips dry with paper towels (the marinade will have already penetrated the meat enough!).
-
Using the bamboo skewers pierce the tip of the meat so you have anywhere from 5-7 pieces of meat hanging from each skewer.
-
Set your oven to its lowest setting (we did 170 degrees) and hang the skewers through the grates in the oven so the strips are hanging.
-
Bake for 4 hours (for thicker strips you may need to bake longer), remove from oven and serve immediately or store in the fridge up to 1 month.
-
NOTE: 3lbs raw meat will yield 1lb cooked jerky.
