Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

  1. 1 pound beef sirloin steak, cut into thin strips
  2. ¼ cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
  3. 1 tablespoon steak seasoning
  4. 1 ½ teaspoons brown sugar
  5. 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  6. ½ teaspoon liquid smoke flavoring
  7. skewers

Instructions

  1. Combine steak strips, soy sauce, steak seasoning, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, and liquid smoke in a resealable plastic bag. Marinate for at least 8 hours, or overnight.
  2. Measure skewers to fit across the air fryer basket, slightly overlapping the edge. Trim off excess length.
  3. Preheat the air fryer to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C) for 10 minutes.
  4. Thread beef strips onto skewers, leaving room in between each strip, while the air fryer is preheating.
  5. Air fry for 2 hours. Adjust cooking time as most air fryers have a maximum setting of 30 minutes. Rearrange the skewers during the reset time.
  6. Reduce temperature to 180 degrees F (80 degrees C). Air fry for an additional 15 minutes.
  7. Remove strips to a paper towel-lined storage container. Seal. Allow to rest overnight before serving.

I made 2 batches, my air fryer only went to 195F so Ii extended the time it takes to cook it however it should be fine as I cue the pieces fairly thin. The first batch I used Montreal Steak Spice (Low Sodium) and added a pinch of MSG since everything I used was low sodium. The second batch I used a Carolina Reaper Steak Spice with a dash of Red Pepper Flakes, this one also got a 2 table spoons brown sugar to help balance out the heat. I also let mine come to room temp before covering to ensure some of the moisture was vented out before covering and placing in the fridge over night. The next day I let it come to room temp before snacking.
