Lime Jerky

Ingredients

2 large jalapenos, halved, 1 seeded
1 cup fresh lime juice
1 quart Miller Chill low calorie lime beer
1/2 cup soy sauce
kosher salt
coarsely ground black pepper
2 lbs trimmed beef top round, 1 1/2 inches thick

Instructions

In mini food processor, puree seeded jalapeno along with 1/4 cup of lime juice. Transfer puree to large bowl. Stir in beer, soy sauce, unseeded jalapeno and remaining 3/4 cup of lime juice.

Take beef and cut into 1/4-inch thick slices with or against the grain. Add beef to marinade a few slices at a time. Stir well to coat each slice with marinade. Cover and refrigerate for 6 to 8 hours.

Preheat oven to 200F degrees. Set a large wire rack on each of 3 large rimmed baking sheets. Remove beef from marinade and pat dry with paper towels. Arrange beef on racks, leaving 1/4 inch between slices. Sprinkle with kosher salt and black pepper. Bake for about 4 hours, until jerky is firm and almost completely dry. Let cool completely on racks before serving.

Jerky can be refrigerated in airtight container for up to 6 weeks.
