Beer-Marinated Deer Jerky image

Lean deer meat marinated in beer and spices to perfection overnight, then dehydrated. The jerky takes a while to make, but it is relatively easy, and well worth the wait. My whole family loves it and I bet yours will too.

Time 14h15m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 pounds lean venison, cut into thin strips
1 (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle beer (such as Budweiser®)
½ cup soy sauce
½ cup Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon minced fresh garlic
1 teaspoon curry powder
½ teaspoon ground black pepper, or more to taste
½ teaspoon ground ginger

Steps:

  • Removing all fat and gristle from venison.
  • Mix venison with beer, soy sauce, Worcestershire, salt, garlic, curry powder, black pepper, and ginger together in a medium stainless steel bowl. Cover and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or overnight.
  • Remove venison from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
  • Place the meat on the racks of a dehydrator, so that there is room for the air to flow evenly over all of the pieces.
  • Let dehydrate to desired consistency according to individual appliance instructions, 6 to 8 hours.

I'm allergic to beer. Is there a way to make this recipe without beer?

This recipe is missing some important information. It doesn't say how long to marinate the meat or how long to cook it for.

I followed the recipe exactly and my jerky turned out tough. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This jerky is way too spicy for me. I couldn't even finish one piece.

I'm not a huge fan of venison, but this jerky is delicious. The beer marinade really helps to mellow out the gaminess of the meat.

I've tried a lot of different jerky recipes, but this one is definitely my favorite. It's the perfect combination of sweet, salty, and spicy.

This jerky is a little spicy for my taste, but it's still really good. I would recommend using less chili powder if you don't like spicy food.
