Beef Jerky For Beginners - Easy Beef Jerky Recipe

I have a Vision Grill hard to keep it under 200° Have you ever made this Beef Jerky with such a grill?

Yeah buddy! I make this on my pellet smoker all the time, almost exactly like you did it! The eye of round from costco comes pre-trimmed of most of the fat, making it really easy. I like throwing the meat in the freezer for a half hour before slicing. It firms it up a little bit and makes thin-slicing a little easier.

I love this video. It was very calming for me, watching you trim the fat. It’s been a rough day for me, but this improved it significantly. ❤️❤️

This has become my favorite BBQ channel.

Real good video Joe. Cheers.

Better then Bucees? I don't have a pk .. would you try pit or oven with liquid smoke

That red pepper jerky was good! Heat was perfect

Put the meat in the freezer after trimming its so you can slice it easier or it also helps being cold to slice on a meat slicer.

ABSOLUTELY love your channel! I ran across it when I was looking for sausage making videos. I have been hooked ever since!!! Normally, I watch on my TV so I can only "thumbs up", but I cannot comment. I needed to jump on the PC to say how much I enjoy your channel and how AWESOME everything you make looks. I LOVE beef jerky!!! Two questions. The first, would the jerky turn out okay if you perhaps par-froze the beef prior to cutting it? I am asking because I am not sure I could consistently cut slices that thin AND second, how did you know the jerky was ready? YOu mentioned that it would take between 4-7 hours, but you cannot stick a meat probe in them (at least to my knowledge), so how did you know they were done? Was it the "bend" test you gave them? Sorry if these are silly questions. I am new to grilling / smoking. Keep up the great work!

Joe, this one is a dream come true....I'm going to start it this Monday. I can't wait!

You are so right about homemade being better than anything in the store!! That jerky looks great 👍 That eye of round looks like the perfect cut of meat also!

Yaaass!!! Now I want some homemade jerky!!!

Makes beef jerky. Thought he was making carne asada for my Mexican family.

Great video, I love making homemade jerky, and I checked their seasoning kits out and they're very reasonable. I'm planning on doing a whole deer in jerky after Thanksgiving. I will definitely try the seasoning. Thanks for another great tip. ✌🏼

100 percent awesome looking beef jerky. The thickness, texture and flavours are amazing. Cheers, Joe! ✌️

Another good job done Joe the beef jerky looks amazing you've inspired me to make some myself

Mmmmm we want to try all of them, Smokin’ Joe!!! Love the addition of the cherry sawdust to add flavour and colour!!!🔥

Sign me up for the red pepper flaky goodness! That jerky looked bad ass! Excellent job, Joe! 🙌🔥

I did your bratwurst recipe yesterday and they turned out amazing

Going to give this a go after hunting trip in October. Got drawn for the moose
hunt this year. Not much out there leaner than moose meat. Should have
plenty to try this with. Over, and over, and over,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, 😋

Would it have been easier to slice the meat if you had put it in the freezer for 45 minutes to an hour?

Looks easier than I thought it would be. The only issue I have is that my Pit Boss 1230g Navigator has a pretty small cooking surface. I'll have to find a way to tier the shelves/racks with a few inches between layers. I can set my smoker to the smoke setting and it will smoke at between 170 and 190 degrees. Any thoughts on separating the layers would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Joe,
Kevin (Bert)

Its the best when raw

Would have loved a warning that this is a "kit" video.

Hay Boss;! Where do you find the box of spice? For the jerky?

pro tip: Put the meat in the freezer for hour or so to firm it up cuts a lot easier.

First time watcher and will enjoy watching more of your work mate.....

Oh Snap those Beef Jerky looks so delicious I bet they were tasty 👌. Cheers!

dont you think it would have been easer to cut if you put in the freezer for bit to firm it up

what determines when to pull out of the smoker?

I know a lot of people are mentioning freeze the meat first a little to make it easier to cut. That works great but what works even better is just having your butcher do it. I have never been charged for having a butcher throw an eye of round in the slicer. It does take some time so call ahead.

The best ingredient you can add to ANY jerky is CARAWAY SEEDS..try it. The flavor it adds is so good, soak the meat over night with your seasoning and lots of caraway seeds, next day add more Caraway seeds to the meat before drying it, the flavor is awesome…..

Can wait for archery season next week. Whitetail Deer jerky for the winter....yum yum. GOD Bless.

That jerky looks great good job bro!

Great video, love your presentation rather humble and honest compared to the You Tube GOAT back yard cooks. thanks!

Shoulda chilled the meat before cutting, even partially freeze it, much easier to cut, as the meat is a bit stiffer. Id make beef jerky all the time, the only problem is i tend to binge eat it lol, you end up eating what was 5 lbs of beef, in 2 hours lol.

The music it so soothing and entertaining. perfect volume too

Looks gr8t JOe . Love beef jerky. Might need to make some but I use liquid smoke - put on my dehydrator. Stay safe & take care of you all. Thanks for sharing eh :))

Knife sharpener are turnin in there graves......other than that :P thumbs up

Trim, then partially freeze the meat. 3 hrs in freezer, it'll slice nice....

This has become my favorite channel!!

Amazing vid as always!! You ever do a biltong vid?

The intro song gives me Breaking Bad vibes

Love your videos! Just a quick question can I use a meat slicer to cut my jerky instead of cutting it by hand?

That's probably the most beautiful looking jerky I've ever seen 🤩🤤

That $3000 smoker looks like a meat computer

My god man, get a decent knife and learn how to sharpen the damn thing BEFORE you make your next video, PLEASE, thank you.

Man that looks good!

When I make jerky, I usually use London broil and have my butcher slice it thin for me

Oh Joe how i wish you were my neighbor to sample all of your cooking. your the best.
