Description

Use a dehydrator to make this easy corned beef jerky that's great for snacking or camping.

Ingredients

2 1/2 pounds flat-cut corned beef brisket
1/2 tablespoon brown sugar
1/2 tablespoon ground coriander seed
1/2 tablespoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground dry mustard
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Directions

1 Remove excess fat from the brisket. Slice brisket into 1/8-inch thick slices against the grain. You can freeze the brisket for 1 hour beforehand to make slicing easier.
2 Combine brown sugar, coriander, paprika, black pepper, mustard, and garlic powder in a small bowl. Stir until evenly combined.
3 Sprinkle brown sugar mixture over the corned beef strips and massage into meat until evenly combined.
4 Place strips on the trays of a dehydrator making sure not to overcrowd.
5 Set the dehydrator to 155 degrees F (69 degrees C) according to manufacturer's directions. Dehydrate for 2 hours. Flip strips over and dehydrate until desired consistency is reached, about 1 1/2 hours.
6 Turn the dehydrator off, remove the lid, and let jerky sit for 1 hour for final drying. Transfer jerky to an airtight container and refrigerate.
