Beef Jerky a la Willie

Ingredients And Procedures

Ingredients
1/2	cup	soy sauce, low salt
1 1/4	teaspoon	onion powder
1/3	cup	worcestershire sauce
1 1/4	teaspoon	garlic powder
2 1/3	teaspoon	pepper
2	tablespoon	brown sugar
1	pound	lean beef
1		Liquid mesquite smoke *

Directions:
* use in place of smoker. Mix all ingredients except beef to make marinade. Cut thinly sliced beef into 1/2 inch strips and marinate for 8 to 12 hours. Smoke using mesquite chips for about three hours and then finish drying in oven. If doing whole operation in oven use liquid smoke and hang strips of beef on highest rack and put shallow pan underneath to catch drippings. Turn oven on and set to lowest possible setting and leave for 6 to 8 hours until thoroughly dried. A couple of hints that I picked up from one of the cooking echos. Use toothpicks or wooden skewers to hang meat by, and put a couple of layers of paper towels in the pan to collect the drippings and save cleaning problems later on.
