Just wanted to let everyone know I had my first go at this-- I got a whole leg from a friend who hunts, probably weighed about 15 lbs. total. Deboning it and trimming it was a hell of a job!
I took about 3 lbs. of the trimmed strips of meat, marinated it 24 hrs:
1 tsp. instacure
onion powder
garlic powder
salt and pepper
soy sauce
worcestershire sauce
beer
my own smoked habaneros, ground fine,
After trimming the meat is very lean. Very tasty jerky, and pretty damn hot, too. It is a bit chewy, probably because of my lack of butchering skills!
Peace!
