Jerky is lean meat that has been trimmed of fat, cut into strips, and then dried to prevent spoilage. Normally, this drying includes the addition of salt, to prevent bacteria from developing on the meat before sufficient moisture has been removed.
For your beef jerky, you can choose to use beef brisket, eye of round, or flank steak. Just make sure that it is a quality piece of meat. This jerky is flavored in a marinade of soy sauce, Worchestershire, garlic, onion, ginger, and Chinese five spice.
