AIR FRYER OVEN BEEF JERKY

Using your air fryer oven makes whipping up a big batch of jerky as easy as 1-2-3. All it takes is a few ingredients and some patience. Make sure to cut your beef paper thin or plan on a longer drying time. I find it helpful to freeze the beef for an hour for easy slicing. Refrigerate any that is not consumed in 3 days.

Tips:

Choose the right cut of beef. Flank steak, top sirloin, and eye of round are all good choices for beef jerky. These cuts are lean and have a good amount of connective tissue, which helps to give the jerky a chewy texture.
Slice the beef against the grain. This will help to make the jerky more tender.
Marinate the beef for at least 4 hours, or overnight. This will help to flavor the jerky and make it more tender.
Use a dehydrator or air fryer to dry the beef jerky. A dehydrator is the best option, but an air fryer can also be used. Make sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions for your specific appliance.
Dry the beef jerky until it is leathery and pliable. This usually takes 4-8 hours, depending on the thickness of the jerky and the temperature of the dehydrator or air fryer.
Store the beef jerky in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. Properly stored beef jerky can last for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

Beef jerky is a delicious and nutritious snack that is easy to make at home. By following these tips, you can make beef jerky that is perfect for your taste. Whether you like it sweet, savory, or spicy, there is a recipe for beef jerky that you will love.
