Got a good deal on Eye of the Round at SAMS, so I decided to make some of beef jerky
My first couple batches were done by marinating overnight in ziploc bags. Then I came across a deal on a Vacuum Meat Tumbler
This thing worked so well, I bought a bunch of them!

I received $200 worth of Cabelas Gift Cards, so I cashed them in on some Jerky Spices and other stuff.
Gotta use them up!
I found a great combination by mixing Hickory and Peppered Jerky Seasoning
Here's my last batch
5# Eye of the Round, sliced 1/4" thick
Jerky Seasoning courtesy of Cabelas
8 oz. water
2 tablespoons liquid smoke - I Know....!
Vacuum Tumbler
25 minutes to marinate in the tumbler - Sure beats overnight in ziploc bags!
4 hours in the dehydrator
Just to test how well the Vacuum Tumbler works, I added another 4 oz. of water @ 15 minutes. The extra water was also absorbed in to the 5# of meat at 25 minutes.
Thanks for looking!

5# Eye of the round trimmed 1/4" sliced ready to marinade
Meat, seasonings, cure and water Into the tumbler 8 - 12 pumps with the hand vac
Set the digital time for 25 minutes 15 minutes and most liquid is absorbed into the meat
25 minutes and it's done marinating! Into the dehydrator for about 4 hours
