Is the idea to use cheaper cuts because when they are marinaded and dried out you can't tell the difference?
Jerky is pretty pricey at retail level.
I like the spicy stuff myself.

I like top and bottom round steak as far tenderness and flavor go. Flank is good too but so $$$$. I usually have to trim a bunch of fat off the flank too since fat is the enemy of jerky if you want it to last awhile. Lean, lean, lean is the key.
