Smoked Drunk Chicken Jerky Recipe
Chicken jerky will look, feel and taste different than beef, venison or pork jerky. It gets kinda brittle.
Ingredients
1 Lb chicken (or any whole muscle meat)
¼ Cup beer (your choice)
¼ Cup teriyaki
¼ Cup tequila (your choice)
¼ Cup soy
½ Cup wine (your choice)
1 Tbsp smoke flavouring (if using a dehydrator)
Salt and pepper to your liking
Hot sauce ⅛
Tsp cure #1 (if making 5 lbs use 1 level tsp)
1 T accent (opt)
Preparation
Trim the chicken of all membranes, tendons, and fat.
Cut your jerky strips and let the meat soak in the marinade for 8 hours or overnight in a plastic container covered in the fridge.
I’m going to Reveo mine for 10 minutes.
Remove meat and place on screened racks and let drip dry some, then go straight to your dehydrator.
Dry at 140-150ºF (60-70ºC) anywhere from 12 hours to an entire day, until done. What you don’t want to see is light spots in the chicken. This means it's not done. You’re looking for a consistent dark colour throughout.
