Ingredients

  • 2 lbs Top Round Roast
  • 1 cup soy sauce
  • ½ cup Worcestershire sauce
  • ½ cup rainbow peppercorns
  • 2 tbsp black pepper course grind

Instructions

  • Slice your beef into ¼” thick slices and your desired length.
  • Place the beef into a bowl along with the soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and rainbow peppercorns. Cover and let marinate in the fridge for 12 to 24 hours.
  • After marinating, remove the beef from the marinade and transfer it to the jerky trays. Make sure you leave some space between each slice to let the air circulate.
  • Set your dehydrator to 140°F and place the trays inside. Let the jerky dehydrate for 3 to 4 hours until fully dehydrated.
  • After you remove the jerky from the dehydrator, sprinkle the coarse ground black pepper over the top.
  • Store in an airtight container for up to a week.

Notes

If you can't marinate for 12 to 24 hours, you can get away with 3-4 hours if you’re crunched for time. 
You’ll know when your jerky is done as it will have a slight bend and is no longer moist.
