Pemmican Recipe

Pemmican is a traditional, high-energy food made by combining dried meat with rendered fat. This modern take on a centuries-old practice yields a portable, shelf-stable snack thatโ€™s perfect for carnivores, campers, or anyone looking for a nutrient-dense option on the go.


Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs ground beef (or thinly sliced beef cuts)
  • 8 oz beef tallow
  • 2 tsp salt

Instructions

  • Dehydrate the Meat
    1. Prepare the Beef:
      • If using ground beef, flatten it into thin sheets on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
      • If using steak cuts, slice them into very thin strips or flatten them.
    2. Set the Dehydrator or Oven:
      • Use a dehydrator set to 165ยฐF (74ยฐC), or an oven at its lowest possible setting (times may vary if using the oven).
    3. Start Dehydrating:
      • Place the beef in the dehydrator (or oven) and dehydrate until the beef is very brittle and crumbles easily.
      • This can take 7-12 hours, depending on the thickness and moisture of the meat.
      • If the process seems slow, crumble or break up the meat partway through to speed up drying.
    4. Check for Zero Moisture:
      • The meat should have no visible moisture left and should snap easily when bent.
  • Powder the Beef
    • Once the beef is completely dried, place it into a food processor.
    • Pulse until the meat becomes a fine powder (almost flour-like in consistency).
  • Combine Meat Powder, Tallow, and Salt
    1. Warm the Tallow:
      • Gently heat the beef tallow until itโ€™s pliable and pourable (but not scorching hot).
    2. Mix:
      • In a large bowl, stir the powdered beef, 2 tsp salt, and warm tallow together.
      • Mix thoroughly until it forms a uniform paste.
  • Shape and Cool
    1. Fill Molds:
      • Spoon or press the mixture into molds, a loaf pan, or even a simple baking dish lined with parchment.
    2. Refrigerate or Freeze:
      • Chill the mixture until it solidifies enough to hold its shape (about 1-2 hours).
      • If using molds, remove the pemmican once firm.
  • Store
    • Pemmican can be stored in airtight containers in a cool, dry place.
    • It is shelf-stable and can last for months under proper conditions.
    • For longer storage or particularly warm climates, you may wish to keep it in the fridge or freezer.

Tips & Variations

  • Meat Choice: While beef is common, other lean meats like bison, venison, or lamb can also be used.
  • Ratio Adjustments: Adjust the ratio of meat to tallow depending on your preference for texture and richness.
  • Seasoning: Keeping it simple is classic, but you can add pepper or other spices if desired (though this may affect shelf life slightly).

Enjoy this ancient, protein-dense snack on hikes, camping trips, or simply as a quick and convenient meal on a carnivore or low-carb diet!

Bone Broth

Bone broth is a nutrient-dense, comforting stock made from slowly simmered bones. Roasting the marrow bones first adds a deep, rich flavor. Follow these simple steps to make a delicious, gelatinous broth that you can enjoy on its own or use as a base for soups, stews, and sauces.


Ingredients:

  • Bone marrow bones (quantity as desired)
  • Salt (to taste)
  • Water (enough to cover the bones in the slow cooker)
  • Seasoning (optional, such as peppercorns, bay leaves, garlic, or herbs)

Instructions

  1. Roast the Bones
    • Preheat your oven to 450ยฐF (230ยฐC).
    • Place the marrow bones on a baking sheet and season them lightly with salt.
    • Roast in the oven for 30-45 minutes, or until the bones are golden brown. This step adds depth and richness to your broth.
  2. Transfer to Slow Cooker
    • Carefully remove the roasted bones from the oven.
    • Place them in a slow cooker or Crock-Pot.
  3. Add Water and Season
    • Pour enough water into the slow cooker to completely cover the bones.
    • Add additional salt or any seasonings you prefer (e.g., peppercorns, bay leaves, garlic, or dried herbs).
  4. Slow Cook
    • Set the slow cooker to low and let the bones simmer for 48-72 hours.
    • Check periodically to ensure the bones remain covered with water. Add more water as needed.
  5. Strain the Broth
    • Once the cooking time is complete, remove the bones from the slow cooker.
    • Strain the broth through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove any debris or small bone fragments.
  6. Store Your Bone Broth
    • Allow the broth to cool slightly before transferring it to airtight containers or jars.
    • Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. If you prefer to keep it longer, freeze it for up to 3 months.

Serving Suggestions & Tips:

  • Gelatinous Texture: Once refrigerated, your bone broth may become gelatinous, which is a sign itโ€™s rich in collagen. It will liquefy again when warmed.
  • Use It Anywhere: Sip it as a warm beverage, or use it as a base for soups, stews, gravies, or sauces.

Enjoy the deep, savory flavor of this bone broth and all its nourishing benefits!

No Churn Carnivore Ice Cream

Enjoy a rich and creamy frozen treat without the need for an ice cream maker! This No Churn Carnivore Ice Cream uses simple, animal-based ingredients for a decadent dessert. The vanilla and orange zest are completely optional, but they lend a subtle flavor that complements the creamy texture.


Ingredients:

  • 7 egg yolks
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
  • 1 tsp orange zest (optional)

Instructions

  1. Chill Your Mixing Equipment
    • Place a metal bowl and your whisk or beaters in the freezer for about 15 minutes. This helps everything whip up faster.
  2. Combine Ingredients
    • In the chilled metal bowl, add the egg yolks, heavy cream, salt, and any optional flavorings like vanilla or orange zest.
  3. Whip the Mixture (Round 1)
    • Using an electric mixer (or whisk if you donโ€™t mind the arm workout), whip the mixture on medium-high speed for about 10 minutes, or until it becomes light, airy, and thickened.
  4. Freeze (Round 1)
    • Transfer the whipped mixture to a freezer-safe container.
    • Freeze for 3 hours.
  5. Whip Again (Round 2)
    • Remove the partially frozen mixture from the freezer.
    • Return it to your chilled bowl (re-chill the bowl briefly if it has warmed up).
    • Whip again until smooth and creamy. This step breaks up ice crystals and improves texture.
  6. Repeat as Desired
    • For an even smoother consistency, you can repeat the freeze-and-whip process one more time or until you reach your preferred texture.
  7. Final Freeze
    • After the last round of whipping, freeze the ice cream until itโ€™s firm enough to scoop, usually another 2-3 hours, or overnight.
  8. Serve
    • Let the ice cream sit at room temperature for a few minutes if itโ€™s too hard to scoop.
    • Serve and enjoy immediately.

Tips:

  • Serving Suggestions: Top your ice cream with a sprinkle of additional orange zest or a pinch of flaky salt for extra flavor.
  • Storage: Store in an airtight container to prevent ice crystals and enjoy within 1-2 weeks for the best quality.
  • Carnivore-Friendly: Skip any sweetenersโ€”rely on the natural sweetness of the cream and egg yolks for a rich, indulgent treat.

Enjoy your No Churn Carnivore Ice Creamโ€”a creamy, scoopable dessert that fits perfectly into a carnivore or low-carb lifestyle!
