    There is an item on the grocery store called "Liquid Smoke". It comes in a little glass bottle the size baking extracts come in. There are a few brands that I have seen. I have used it in chili and such. It is very strong so use sparingly.Here is a link to amazon that has it.

      Sparingly is the word. I put too much of that stuff in my jerky one time and burped liquid smoke taste for two days

        I like to use this occassionally but must stress the "sparingly". Like the old Brylcreme commercial used to say... "a little dab'l doyah."

          Make sure if you use liquid smoke you put the cap on tight. If you don't and it spills....OMG what a mess!
          WARNING!!!! Don't overtighten the top or you will split it.
          I'll post my jerky recipe in a bit or as soon as I find it here....LMBO
          I'll be trying your recipes shortly. I'm looking forward to them.

            A friend of mine uses L.S. I've tried it and it'll pass but nothing like real smoke. I've offered the use of my smoker but ... oh well. Personally, I'll stick with the Real McCoy. ;-D A nice pecan, apple, or even cherry works well. We don't care for the mesquite though, for anything.

            I have a theory that the folks down south just put a good sales gimmick together to get rid of that stuff on us unsuspecting "Yankees" and make some $ off of what they didn't want anyhow.. Most of them don't even use it.

              I know about the liquid smoke. Didn't like the taste much. Maybe too much...

              Besides, if I can't pronounce the ingredient, don't what more than half the ingredients are (and I read science evaluation reports for a living) or have read the reports, I don't always want to eat it!

                You can make your own liquid smoke. It's pretty easy.

                Here's a description of the process used by Alton Brown from Good Eats(I love that show!)

                  I would rather soak my socks in a swamp
                  and smoke them properly,
                  before I put Liquid Smoke in my mouth.

                      Just tired of seeing the post about the kennel for the dog, and a Jerky recipe looked like a good diversion...

                        yum

                        You're making me hungry!

                        thanks for sharing your recipe.

                        I use basically the same ingredients except I add a few drops of liquid smoke.
                        YUM!

                        For jerky fans,you also cannot beat Oscar's Smokehouse in Warrensburg, I a, drooling just thinking about it.
