Let your jerky burst with bold flavor with Backwoods Jerky Seasonings' Cracked Pepper. Since 1991, Backwoods has made it easy to prepare delicious homemade jerky with pre-measured seasonings and a user-friendly approach. The cracked peppercorns in this mix add a satisfying kick, with mustard enhancing the rich flavor profile. Perfect for both wild game and domestic meat, this seasoning ensures consistently flavorful results when you use the recommended amount of meat. The easy-to-follow steps involve either marinating strips or mixing with ground meat, making it versatile enough for various preparations. For those using the marinade method, simply cut the meat to your preferred thickness, mix with the marinade, and refrigerate for at least 8 hours. When preparing 5 pounds of meat, dissolve the entire seasoning and cure packets in 2-1/2 cups of water. For a larger batch of 25 pounds, use 12-1/2 cups of water. Adjust proportions accordingly for smaller batches. If you favor the ground meat method, mix the meat with the seasoning and water until it's tacky. Form the mixture into strips manually or use the renowned Jerky Cannon for uniformity. For 5 pounds, dissolve the entire packets in 5 ounces of water, and for 25 pounds, use 25 ounces of water. Modify portions for smaller quantities as needed. Cook your prepared jerky at 200°F for 1 hour and 15 minutes on each side in the oven, or follow your dehydrator's instructions. Always store the finished jerky in the refrigerator or freezer. Enjoy the simplicity and unbeatable flavor that Backwoods Jerky Seasonings' Cracked Pepper brings to your jerky-making experience.
