Deer jerky marinade

A good deer jerky marinade will take into account the different flavour of the deer meat compared with good quality beef, white meat or fish jerky. You can find a good deer jerky marinade by searching online or browsing your local library for a good recipe book. Typically they will include spices and sugar or salt. The sugar and salt are the curative products which are necessary to the dehydration and long term storage process. The dehydrating process on it's own usually isn't sufficient for the jerky to keep. Getting a good marinade is an important step to making venison jerky.
