One recipe that I love to do and one food I love to make has been Sweet Spicy Beef Jerky Recipe. Until this year I have been limited in using my oven. One of my favorite Christmas gifts – EVER – is the new Ninja Grill & most of the great accessories that were a additional purchase, but well worth it. The Ninja grill comes with a very good cookbook with excellent recipes. I was given another cookbook with much more detailed and a lot more recipes. You do not need a Ninja grill or dehydrator to make great beef jerky. You can apply these direction and use your oven.
First I purchased really good sirloin steak strips. I marinated my sirloin steak using 3 of my Cajun/Blackening seasoning & Capt. Morgan spice rum marinate. I put the steak strips in a baggy in the fridge for 48 hours. Then cut the steak strips in 1 inch pieces. You need the stainless steel racks (Ninja accessory). Place your steak strips end to end covering the racks. I had 1 1/4 lb of steak & 3 racks that interlock on top of each other. I have used Jack Daniels to make beef jerky in the past. That bourbon does give you some really great beef jerky.
There is a Dehydrate Chart in the back of the cookbook that comes with the Ninja grill. It list the temp. of 150 times 5-7 hours. I found this to be way to much time. I checked and removed my steak strips after just 3 hours. If I had done 4-7 hours more I would have had petrified rock hard meat. So check what you are cooking or in this case dehydrating on regular intervals. Over the years I have created my own cookbook with hundreds of detailed recipes that I have come up with. From different meats, many vegetables, breads, desserts and specialty items like Beef Jerky.
I have made 2 ribeye steaks, french fries & veggies in the Ninja grill. All have come out done to perfection. The ribeye steaks had the grill marks as if I had cooked them outside on my grill, the steaks were done to Med. well as I like, they were juicy and taste better than any steak house I could have gone to. The reason why is that my steaks were seasoned the way that like them. With Cajun & blackening seasoning. Along with black pepper & garlic.
