Pemmican: Meat, Fat & Berries

This brick of prime protein will keep even the hearties of mountaineers alive. Theoretically speaking, you can live entirely off of this beef brick and survive an entire North American winter. The best part is that this food can last for 50+ years in a NON-airtight container, hearty. Keep the dust and rats off of it because it is made of virtually any meat, but commonly the gamy meat of buffalo, elk, deer, or moose is used. Meat strips are then dried, ground and mixed at a 1:1 ratio with suet (rendered loin and kidney fat). You'll need some extra vitamins to keep fit, adding in sea buckthorn berry will round out this recipe as the only think one needs to eat to survive (besides water and fiber).
