I have a variation on my original recipe.
I put some Tabasco in the soy-sauce/brown sugar and that gives it a nice bite.
I have heard of people putting garlic in too, but I havnt tried that.
Some other things I've learned, if you smoke your jerky (the best way IMO) and its cold out side, I just put a cardboard box over my smoker.
Luhr-Jensen sells a wrap, I may buy that for next year, as my box is getting pretty ratty.
Also, if you put Tabasco in, you need to stir it a few times, if you don't, you get some pieces that burn your mouth and some that you cant tell from the regular.
The smoking/curing times are dependent on the outside temp.
The colder it is, the longer it takes.
Ahhh, jerky, now THAT is food of the gods lol
Oh, to edit the links that are broke:
