Trim all visible fat from the top round beef.
Slice the beef very thinly against the grain.
In a mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, water, and Worcestershire sauce.
Add the salt, garlic powder, onion powder, crushed red pepper flakes (if using), and ground black pepper to the marinade.
Whisk the marinade ingredients together until well combined.
Place the sliced beef into a large resealable plastic bag.
Add the maple syrup to the bag with the beef, then pour in the marinade.
Seal the bag, removing as much air as possible, and massage to ensure all beef is coated.
Refrigerate and let the beef marinate for 24 hours.
Remove the beef slices from the marinade and lay them in a single layer on wire racks set over foil pans or baking sheets.
Sprinkle additional coarsely ground black pepper over the top of the beef slices.
Place the racks in an oven set to its lowest temperature, around 140°F (60°C).
Dehydrate for 4 hours, or until the jerky is dry but still pliable.
