**Mesquite:** Native to Texas and much of Mexico, this smoky southwest flavor is not to be missed.  
  
Backwoods™ Jerky Seasonings have been delighting customers since 1991. We make it simple with our easy to follow instructions and pre-measured cure in every package. Marinate strips or mix with ground meat and use with our famous Jerky Cannon # 468! For wild game and domestic meat.  
  
***For consistently flavorful jerky use the recommended number of pounds of meat this package is intended to produce.***  
  
**Marinade Method:**  
  

- Remove all sinew and fat. For best results, use a cut from the hind legs.
- Cut meat into strips 8" long and 1/8" thick.
- **To make the entire 5 lb. package at one time:** Dissolve entire seasoning and cure packets into 2-1/2 cups of water for 5 pounds of meat.
- **To make the entire 25 lb. package at one time:** Dissolve entire seasoning and cure packets into 12-1/2 cups of water for 25 pounds of meat.
- **To make smaller batches:** Dissolve 4-1/4 teaspoons of seasoning, a scant 1/4 teaspoon of cure (1.1g) and 1/2 cup of water per pound of meat in a glass bowl.
- Place strips of meat in the bowl and marinate for at least eight hours in the refrigerator.
- Remove strips from marinade (discard remaining marinade) and place in oven or dehydrator.

  
**Ground Meat Method:**  
  

- **To make the entire 5 lb. package at one time:** Dissolve entire seasoning and cure packets into 5 ounces of water. Mix with 5 pounds of meat.
- **To make the entire 25 lb. package at one time:** Dissolve entire seasoning and cure packets into 25 ounces of water. Mix with 25 pounds of meat.
- **To make smaller batches:** Dissolve 4-1/4 teaspoons of seasoning, a scant 1/4 teaspoon of cure (1.1g) and 1 ounce of water per pound of meat in a glass bowl. Mix with meat until mixture becomes tacky.
- Roll a small amount of meat with a rolling pin until 1/8" thick and cut into strips. For fast, easy, uniform strips use the LEM Jerky Cannon®.

  
**Process in one of the following ways:**  
  

- Preheat oven to 200° F. Place in oven on a cookie sheet and leave door open to first stop. Dry for 1 hour and 15 minutes on each side or until desired texture and dryness is reached.
- Place on rack in dehydrator and dry according to manufacturer's instructions.**Refrigerate or freeze finished product.**  
  
**Keep cure out of reach of children.**  
  
**Do not use more cure than recommended.**  
  
**Seasoning Ingredients:** Salt, Worcestershire Powder (Dextrose, Caramel Color \[Sulfites 140ppm], Monosodium Glutamate, Garlic Salt, Carboxymethyl Cellulose, Chili Pepper, Spices, Mustard, Malic Acid, Natural Flavorings \[Spice Extractives], Onion, Less Than 2% Silicone Dioxide Added To Prevent Caking), Paprika, Granulated Garlic, Monosodium Glutamate, Red Pepper, Dextrose, Spices And With Less Than 2% Tricalcium Phosphate Added To Prevent Caking.
