California Farm Cold Smoked Beef Jerky

Cold smoked flank steak makes great, natural beef jerky without salts, preservatives, soy sauce, or meat tenderizers if you have a convection or air fryer oven. The forced air inside the convection oven dries the sliced beef, and the low 140 to 170F degree setting evaporates and dries the meat without over cooking.
This technique shows how thin to slice the cold smoked meat to make a chewy, flavorful jerky that does not turn brittle, and how to flavor it.

Lay aluminum foil down on bottom rack of convection oven, heat to 140F to 170F degrees, lay strips on center rack.

  2. 2

    Determine the cooking time. Dry meat one hour. Push center of each strip with your finger to feel how flexible the jerky is. Dry another hour, repeat flextest. You should begin to notice a difference between the 1/8” and 1/4” slices. Dry another half hour. Teste. Note time. Do not dry meat more than 3 hours. Use sugar and salt rub to taste.

I teach people at the farmers market to grow small scale fruits and vegetables. My grandparents and parents taught me growing, cooking and preserving home grown fruits and vegetables, eggs, meats and fish. I got certified by the University of California Master Gardener Program in 2005. I try to bring out the original flavor of ingredients, then add layers of spices, herbs and flavorings that enhance, not distort the taste. These are the global, organic and vegan family recipes we use.
