Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb grass-fed top round flank steak
  • cup coconut aminos
  • ¼ cup unsweetened apple juice
  • 1 T sea salt
  • 1 t crushed red pepper flakes
  • 2 t garlic powder
  • 1 t black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Slice the beef across the grain into very thin strips.
  • In a small bowl, combine the coconut aminos, apple juice, sea salt, red pepper flakes, garlic powder, and black pepper.
  • Place the sliced beef in a large resealable plastic food bag and pour in the marinade. Close the bag and shake to coat the meat well. Refrigerate the beef for 6 to 8 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 250°F. Remove the marinated meat strips from the refrigerator and drain. With paper towels, pat the meat strips dry.
  • Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange the beef in a single layer and cook for 10 minutes.
  • Reduce the heat to 140°F, and let the beef dry in the oven for 4 to 6 hours. Keep the oven door part way open to ensure the meat dehydrates rather than cooks.
  • The meat will be ready when it can be folded without breaking, Serve at room temperature.
