I tried a store bought honey jerky before I started making jerky and I am having a desire to make some of this. I have never tried it and I have ideas, just looking to see if anyone has had any luck with this?

I've used this one a few times.  Add more brown sugar or honey if want sweeter.

5lbs sliced meat
1/2 cup of Dale's Famous marinade.
1/2 cup Worcestershire sauce.
1/2 cup brown sugar
3 Tbsp honey
2 Tbsp pickling salt or sea salt.
2 Tbsp black pepper (coarse ground if possible)
1 Tbsp habanero sauce (optional, but recommended)
Dash or two cayenne powder.
Dash or two garlic powder. (not garlic salt)
1 tsp cure #1

Mix and marinade at least 12 hrs or over night.  If not using smoker add 2 Tbs liquid smoke.

Thanks!

Sounds a bit sweet for me....but I know a few folks that will enjoy it.  Please tell me you made a typo in the amount of cure? 1 tbsp cure for 5 lbs of meat???

I stand corrected.....my fingers were moving too fast for my brain. Thanks for fixing me on that one. My mistake.

I may tone down the brown sugar next time, however it came out the way I wanted it. It was VERY sticky, almost to the point where it was a glaze that was stuck on your fingers afterwards.

Thank you for changing the cure amount...don't want it to confuse people who haven't used cure.  ;D

and the $$$

it's VERY sticky, not sure if you can see by the picture.



sorry about the glare, I was in a hurry to get this all packaged up for my buddy. This is the venison jerky that he had asked for from his deer from a few weeks ago. Asked for 3 flavors:

Original with hickory
Original with mesquite
Honey/Brown Sugar with Apple

NOM NOM NOM
