6 ounces Jerky
3 tablespoons Oil
1 teaspoon Whole cumin seed
4 tablespoons Chili powder
1 teaspoon Onion flakes
1 teaspoon Oregano
1/2 teaspoon Cumin (powdered)
1/4 teaspoon Garlic powder
Water as needed

pot, simmer jerky and cumin seeds gently in moderately hot fat/oil for one to
two minutes, stirring steadily to prevent burning. Add chili powder and
continue to stir until well mixed. (Amount of chili powder will depend on the
hotness of the jerky and your taste.) Add onion flakes, oregano, powdered
cumin, garlic powder, and enough water to cover generously. Stir. Simmer one
to two hours, adding water as the jerky takes it up. Allow chili to cool, and
reheat before serving. If a thicker chili is prefered, add a little flour
mixed to a paste with hot liquid from the pot and cook to desired consistency,
stirring frequently.
