Ingredients
- 2 lbs. lean venison(or beef)1x2x8 inch strips
 - 1 tsp. salt
 - 1/2 tsp. pepper
 - 1 1/2 Tbsp. chili powder
 - 2 tsp. garlic powder
 - 2 tsp. onion powder
 - a dash of cayenne pepper
 - 5 dashes of liquid smoke mixed with 1/4 c. water
 
Directions
Mix and brush on both sides of pieces. Place in glass dish and marinate overnight. Next day shake any excess off and lay strips in a single layer on oven rack.
 
  Place sheet of tin foil below to catch drippings. Bake at lowest temperature, 124-130 degrees F., with door slightly ajar, until strips are real dark, almost black, 7-10 hours. If the strips crack when bent but don't break, its done. If you run out of the mix, make another batch.
