Go to the carniceria, that's the Mexican meat market. Get Pallomilla, it's already sliced just under 3/8". Marinate for a few hours in. 1-3 cups soy sauce, 1/2 ish cup Worcestershire sauce, pepper, cayenne, garlic powder mustard powder 1/2 ish cup franks hot sauce, red pepper flakes and dried mustard 2 tsp ish. Move the meat around while it marinates so it all gets a taste, add hot shit if you like, oh yeah, maybe add 1/2 cup brown sugar if you want, sprinkle more hot shit as you put it on the dehydrator, dry it until its either really dry and tough, or not as dry, just so long as its dry, if you over dry it, take a paper towel, wet it, squeeze it out and place it in a ziplock with the overdry jerky, eat the jerky, enjoy the jerky, post a stream of consciousness recipe on a gun forum to see if anybody tries it cause its good, use whatever other red meat including brisket if your cheap and the fat streaks taste delicious, but they'll sour if left too long.,,... Adjust the recipe to your taste and put on the smoker if you want, but just for a little flavor, or add liquid smoke.... Make it a little different every time and save yourself the money it costs to buy from honey smoked hams, because their jerky is pretty f'ing good too.

I've tried a lot of different ways for elk, duck, goose, deer and antelope.

Dry rubs mixed in with burger are pretty good. the leaner you make it the less time you need to dehydrate it, the leaner it is the longer it will last. the more fat it in, it won't last as long. If you have something like 8-10% fat in a ground beef/elk/etc, it is good for about 2-4 weeks at room temp, about 2-3 months in the fridge and 6-8 months in the freezer. luckily my 2 year old won't last a bag last a week. He devours the stuff.

Steaks/roasts that are pretty lean are the best IMO. Marinate the crap out of the meat after you thinly slice it. really let it soak. mix in your spice/rub/pepper while in the marinade. toss it in the dehydrator wet. top if off with spices etc as wanted. this usually takes twice as long to turn into jerky but I will apply more of the marinade with a brush 1-2 times during the dehydration.

flavor is all personal preference. I personally like hot spices, something with a bite.

If you want the best way to slice your meat, either invest in a very high end slicer, or get a cheap one and set your meat in the freezer for a couple hours and let it get very cold and stiffened up and it makes it very easy to slice thinly.
