Peanut Butter Sriracha Bacon Jerky: A Spicy, Sweet, and Savory Treat

Are you ready to try something new and delicious? In today's blog post, we'll walk you through making our mouth-watering peanut butter Sriracha bacon jerky using our favorite Right Brand bacon. This easy-to-make recipe will have you coming back for more. Let's get started!

Prepping the Bacon: For this recipe, we're using a 2.5-pound bag of bacon. We'll be using about 2 pounds for this batch and set the rest aside for another project. First, cut the bacon strips in half for two reasons: they'll fit perfectly on the dehydrator trays and prevent the bacon from getting tangled in the mixing bowl. Next, carefully peel every slice apart to ensure the marinade gets on each piece of bacon.

The Marinade: For our marinade, we'll need the following ingredients:

1/2 cup Peanut Butter

1/4 cup Peanut Butter Powder

1/2 cup Sriracha Sauce

1/4 cup Soy Sauce

1/2 cup Water

Combine these ingredients in a mixer until you achieve a soupy but not overly liquid consistency. Pour the marinade over the bacon and massage it thoroughly, ensuring every square inch is covered.

Marinating and Dehydrating: Seal the bowl and place it in the fridge for at least two days. After marinating, arrange the bacon on the dehydrator trays, making sure each piece has enough space. Set the dehydrator temperature to 158 degrees Fahrenheit and start checking the bacon after 5 hours. The total dehydrating time should be around 5 to 6 hours.

The Final Product: After dehydrating, let the bacon sit at room temperature for 3 to 4 hours. The final product should have a good texture, not be overly oily, and have a nice pliability. The peanut butter Sriracha bacon jerky is now ready to enjoy! With its peanut buttery taste and creeping heat, this jerky is definitely a keeper.
