👨‍🍳 Instructions

Whisk Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, paprika, honey, black pepper, red pepper flakes, garlic powder, and onion powder together in a bowl.

Add beef to bowl and turn to coat beef completely.

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator, 3 hours to overnight.

Preheat oven to 175 degrees F (80 degrees C).

Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack over the foil.

Transfer beef to paper towels to dry.

Arrange beef slices in a single layer on the prepared wire rack on the baking sheet.

Bake beef in the preheated oven until dry and leathery, 3 to 4 hours.

Cut with scissors into bite-size pieces.
