BEEF JERKY

1 flank steak
1 t. seasoned salt
1 t. liquid smoke
1 clove garlic pressed or 1/2 t. garlic powder
1 small onion minced or 1/2 t. onion powder
1/2 t. chili powder
1/4 cup worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup soy sauce

Trim away all the possible fat from meat.  Freeze meat.  Then slice with the grain into thin slices, approximately 1/8 to 1/4" thick.  Marinate overnight in a glass dish with sauce made from all ingredients.  Place meat in single layer on oven racks.  Crack open door and bake at lowest possible temperature, about 125, for six to eight hours.  Recipe makes about 1/2 pound of jerky

First of all, I've been making this for years, sooooo good.  The only problem is it doesn't make enough.  It'll be gone in a flash!  I don't freeze the meat.  I tried that once, and for sure I can't cut through that.  Just go ahead and slice it thin while it's defrosted.  Just can't improve on this I don't think!
