PEMMICAN: THE ORIGINAL HUNTER’S TRAIL FOOD | MEATEATER COOK



Pemmican: The Original Hunter’s Trail Food | MeatEater Cook image

Trail food is an essential part of any hunter’s kit. Snacking in the field keeps your energy level up whether you’re burning calories on long hikes or sitting in a blind all day. This is especially true in cold conditions. On most MeatEater hunts, various bars, jerky, and trail mix make up a huge...

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb venison jerky
1 lb rendered bear fat or substitute with wild boar fat, beef suet etc.
½ lb dried cranberries, blueberries etc.
½ lb  pine nuts or substitute with cashews or walnuts
All ingredients are mixed in equal ratios so it’s easy to adjust for quantity.

Steps:

  • Drying meat is a simple process that can be done in the oven or a dehydrator. But instead of using plain dried meat, you can also use jerky. The salt cure will increase shelf-life and add flavor. Try using this recipe.
  • Whether you are using jerky or plain dried meat, you must have a very dry product to make pemmican properly. You want jerky that cracks and crumbles when bent. Grind the dried meat or jerky into a rough powder. You can use a food processor to do this quickly. Do the same with the dried berries and nuts.
  • Next, you’ll need to mix the dry ingredients with rendered (cooked and liquefied) fat. Here’s Steve’s method for rendering bear fat. You can substitute duck fat, pork fat or beef suet for bear fat.
  • Once the pemmican is well-mixed, you’ll need to pour it into a mold to set up. Muffin pans or cookie sheets work well for this. After the pemmican has rested, remove each piece from the muffin pan or cut the pemmican into blocks on the cookie sheet and then package pieces individually with a vacuum sealer to keep them clean while out in the field.
