Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb Top Round Thin cut about 1/4" thick
  • 1/2 tsp Meat Tenderizer Adolph's is a good choice
  • 1/4 cup Soy I use low sodium
  • 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp Black Pepper
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp Smoked Paprika

Method
 

  1. Cut the beef slices into strips
  2. Mix remaining ingredients to create marinade, then add beef strips
  3. Marinate in fridge 6-24 hours.
  4. Blot the beef strips dry with paper towels, and spread beef in a single layer on a baking rack.
  5. Bake in closed over for 2 1/2 hours at 170 degrees, then turn the oven off and let it cool to room temperature with the door still closed (~2 more hours). See notes for doubling.

Notes

I store them in a ziplock bag in the fridge.
To double, make two separate batched of marinade & meat.  Lay each batch on separate backing trays and let the oven run for 3 hours with 2 hour cool down.
