Pemmican is an EXCELLENT food for travel and to store for future use.
The high caloric content of this protein and fat-rich food provides long lasting energy. It's compact size makes it super convenient. Manzanita flour adds good flavor and additional nutrients. The dry kelp is loaded with vitamins and minerals including salt. This version of pemmican is simply my favorite food.

Pemmican lasts longest when it is made from very lean dried pounded meat, and organ fat that has been rendered at least twice to get it as clean as possible. Muscle fat is composed differently; it has a lot more water content and a lower melting point (since it has to flex with muscles as they move); organ (leaf, kidney) fat sits inside the abdominal cavity and has a higher melting point (it doesn't have to flex with muscles) and less water content. (That water is a major contributor of what causes rancidity in fats.) You can certainly make pemmican with muscle fats, but do plan on going through it faster than pemmican made with organ fat! As for berries, while it is traditional to add dried fruit to pemmican, this also reduces how long the pemmican lasts, as most dried berries, etc, still contain a bit of water, as well carbohydrates which can be more prone to mold, etc, than muscle proteins & fats. I'd say that manzanita berries are very dry and probably won't be nearly as much of a problem as, say, dried blueberries, which are often still a little bit chewy even when fully dehydrated. Even with that consideration, the longevity of pemmican far outlasts traditional dried meat jerky due to the rendered fat coating the protein fibers, isolating them away from the air (and thus sources of decay, such as bacteria, mold spores, and oxygen, which can cause its own issues through oxidization). The best way to cleanly render and preserve the most fat is first to chop it into tiny pieces. This breaks up the connective tissues enclosing the fat in little pockets, ensuring it will all melt free. Then, put it into a pot of water and bring to a gentle boil. Simmer it for a long time, adding water as needed. (This stage can take hours; do not rush the process by applying too much heat, as this can ruin the fats for long-term preservation.) The reason you add the water is to help keep the rendering temperatures hot enough to melt the fat, but not so hot that it starts to scorch it. Allow the combination to cool, and separate out the fat from the water. Ideally, the bits that are not fat (scraps of meat, connective tissue, blood, etc) will have separated from the fats at this stage, and if you can get the liquid to cool down, eventually it will solidify, making separating the oil from the water and solids that much easier. Once it is solid, you should be able to scrape off any bits of fat on the bottom that contain little flecks of non-fat items. Caveat: Some fats do not solidify fully after rendering! Turkey fat is one that is notorious for staying liquid even at fridge temperatures...but then turkey fat is muscle fat & skin fat, not true organ fat, which tends to be found only in mammals. To get a truly clean rendering, repeat this process with just the solidified rendered fats (sometimes called the "hockey puck" lol, or just "puck" for short) in fresh clean water, solidify, scrape, and that should be that. You can also add salt to the boiling water and fats near the end of the process, to help draw out the little particles of meat and connective tissues that might still be in the fat. Scrape the bottom of the solidified fat, and if there is any water in pockets left, simmer just the fat in a container over LOW heat to boil off the last of the water. (This step shouldn't be necessary, but sometimes you just can't get a clean puck bottom.) To make pemmican, take equal portions by weight of the rendered fat and the completely dried and pulverized meat, melt the fat just enough to make it liquid, and mix the two together thoroughly, trying to coat all of the protein fibers. To process small batches that will be eaten soon: Shape the pemmican into bricks of whatever portion size you want, and let them cool to solidify, then wrap in clean dry paper or leather (clean rawhide counts) if you have it. To process and store large amounts that will be eaten over a long period of time, pack the still damp pemmican into an airtight container as densely as you can, making sure to exclude any air pockets. Lay an air barrier along the surface (paper, leather, etc), and seal the container. (Air is your enemy when it comes to long-term preservation.) Pemmican can be eaten as is, once it has been mixed up. You don't even have to cook it, though it is recommended you drink plenty of water, as the dehydrated meat will want to reabsorb roughly 4x its weight & volume in water. You can also met it on a skillet or in a pot with some water to make a sort of meat stew or meat sauce, and then add in other things like vegetables, greens, and seasonings. While pemmican is very much a Native North American food, the Mediterranean area did have something somewhat similar: Fruitcake. Laugh all you want! The original fruitcake was a conglomeration of various types of flour, rendered fat, dried meat, and dried fruits which were mixed and compressed into loafs, baked, and carried by Roman Legionnaires while on campaign. Fruitcake (with meat) was the original trail ration. Eventually, the meat portion started leaving the recipe, the fruit portion started increasing, and the alcohol-soaked version started coming into being when people realized that the alcohol further preserved the loaf. However, because of the flour as well as the fruit, the longevity of European fruitcake was not nearly as lengthy as pure meat-and-organ-fat North American pemmican, a matter of months (for the alcohol-soaked type fruitcake, kept in a cool, dark location in an airtight container) versus literal years and even decades (pemmican cleanly rendered and stored in densely packed clean rawhide containers). Also, if you don't want to mince the meat but do have access to a modern dehydrator, you can make pemmican out of lean ground meat. To make sure that there isn't much muscle fat left in the process, first cook the ground meat, breaking it up in the pan, then rinse it in a strainer with very hot water to help wash away whatever fat may remain, then dehydrate it and continue with the pemmican making process. Suggested serving size is around 1.5 ounces (42 grams) to 2 ounces (57 grams) of pemmican. (Again, drink plenty of water so it doesn't dehydrate you as the protein starts to rehydrate in your guts.) Regarding the types of fat to use, again organ fat (leaf fat, kidney fat) which is found inside the abdominal cavity is best. This is what beef tallow is made from. However, of all the muscle fats to render down and use, lard from rendered pig fat is one of the longest-lasting of the muscle fats. You also do NOT have to use the same type of fat as the meat you're preserving! You can make turkey jerky and preserve it in beef tallow. If it's been rendered very cleanly, it won't have much of a taste, allowing the turkey meat to shine. Lard has long been used in various ways, such as being one of the ingredients in moisturizers for skin in dry climates (deserts, freezing cold winters, etc)...so what Chad did, wiping the rendered fat on his arms, is completely legitimate! Also, most forms of seaweed are edible, and full of various important vitamins, minerals and nutrients. There's a saying among many indigenous coastal peoples around the world, and it basically translates to, "when the tide is out, the table is set," meaning that there are quite a lot of things you can eat when you visit the shoreline. And in this case, quite a lot of things you can collect to help preserve your food!

[@dwaynewladyka577]

If you have access to caul fat, that's the ideal fat to use for making pemmican. It has a less chance of going rancid. I have heard about farmers in Saskatchewan, Canada, who found pemmican in their fields that was really old, and it was still edible. Pemmican was originally stored in rawhide bags that were sewn up to seal it. The good things about pemmican is that it has a very long storage life, under the right conditions, and it offers complete nutrition. I actually had pemmican from some Cree native vendors at a food festival food in Alberta, Canada. It was made with bison, and had dried berries in it. It was very good. The pemmican you made looks pretty good. In these times, learning about food preservation is important. Cheers, Chad! 👍🏻👍🏻✌️

[@ChadZuberAdventures]

Just wanted to let the masses know this is basically portable stew. It wasn't meant to be eaten "raw" in the brick form. It was a means to carry fruit, meat, and fat when none was available. You're supposed to throw it into water to heat up and rehydrate/melt and have as a light stew, or add wild edibles to , to fill out and facilitate a fuller meal. This cooked version was called Rubaboo. Jerky was the same deal. It was a way to preserve meat for when there was none, but you're also meant to pound it to open the fibers and then toss it into water to rehydrate and then use in stew or eat as is. Otherwise in a survival situation, you're just burning calories you don't have, as well as water you can't afford to waste, for your body to try and rehydrate it in your stomach and THEN break it down. Just keep that in mind yall ^_^

[@ChadZuberAdventures]

I never cook or prepare my pemmican in any way. I just eat it whole, uncooked. That's what I've always done.

[@IngeniousOutdoors]

@@ChadZuberAdventures and that's totally fine. I was just educating the masses lol

[@Bobsikus]

Regarding the pork lard/fat and crackling, my nation is kind of experts :D basically only bad thing you did is not cutting the stuff enough, it really should be very small pieces and the heat should be maintained stable for hours, even a day, if needed, cracklings (I had to find the translated term, and I would say it does not fit much) are considered delicasy at our nation/country. Also dried meat (mostly pork and beef) we know very good, one of the best things I have ever tasted.

[@PRINCESSDREAMYLYN]

yes my mom taught me how they rendered lard when she was a child low heat enough to let the fat melt and slow all day long in the oven she said her mom chopped it as small as she could and spread it out placed it on a rack over roasting pans. getting it to hot could cause a fire also. They raised their own animals on the ranch so they took care to use everything. they saved the cracklins for adding to veggies like green beans and topping and other recipes. Nothing went to waste back in the day. I also do it just to have fresh lard and not be partially hydrogenated because that stuff isn't healthy for us. Lard makes very tasty grilled cheese sandwishes as does bacon grease. just use it instead of butter.

[@ChadZuberAdventures]

Thanks for sharing all this. I believe that the heat was fairly stable. I can see that cutting it into small pieces would help it cook better. I'll do that next time.

[@PRINCESSDREAMYLYN]

@@ChadZuberAdventures I think you did very well and bet the smoke from the fire helped offer some flavors not gained in an oven. Camp fire cookin is the best.

Add some water to the fat before you render it down and bring the water to a boil. That will accelerate the process with less chance of burning.

[@ChadZuberAdventures]

I've done that once before. Just had to then separate the water from the fat. With a shortage of containers that would have been more complicated.

You could call it your own version of 'pepper steak'.

Here's an interesting idea trapping more food useing the food your storing.

"grounding" at a scientific lvl, is a combination of placebo effect, and letting your body fight save microbes and the like. it is best for a gardener to be in his fields, barefoot. this allows more of the microbes to attack him as they would have back before we wore shoes. they lets his body be stronger against other threats. grounding is just another form of this. offering more surface area will only make the effects over a wider area, and not be limited to the hands and feet. and a spiritual note, you are allowing your energies to come into raw contact with nature. as much as we separate ourselves from nature in our day to day, it is good to reconnect, and be part of the system we hope to protect from the rest of us.

Really cool video. Pemmican is such an interesting food. The fact that it can stay for so long without any cooling is great. It may not be the most tasty "dish", but it may depend on the ingridients in some way. I will need to try to make it one day. Also, i wanted to ask a question. Is there a specific reason why beef is used most of the time to make pemmican or is it just the prefference?

[@ChadZuberAdventures]

Actually, mixing it with manzanita flour is really delicious. A friend of mine loves the taste too.

[@ChadZuberAdventures]

Beef is just so commonly available but other meats can be used too. However, beef fat (tallow) is better than pig fat (lard) because tallow creates a more firm product and isn't as oily. I haven't used other fats like from bear or deer.

I wasn't offended. Don't worry. Many people have asked for longer videos whenever I release a short one. But in order to be able to share more of what I do many of the activities don't take much time to tell the story. So you will see a mix of different length videos. Trust me, I am working every day, no days off, to produce as much as I can.

Not that I take with me me but anytime I'm in the bush I'm looking for blue berries

No blueberries here but when I was in Alaska I definitely was on the lookout for blueberries.

Hello again my fish story friend. When you showed us those petroglyphs i couldn't help but think that the people that were there before you would be proud to see how you use primitive methods as they most surely would have used. If i might also make a suggestion my friend. You may want to make you some mits out of extra animal hide that you have to protect your hands when moving those hot pots and lids. If anything it would be something to do to pass the time if you should have some free time to spare. Take care my friend and stay safe !

[@ChadZuberAdventures]

Thank you my fellow fisher friend! Yeah, this place is so cool. I'm happy I found it. Just knowing that an ancient people used this place in their journeys just was so satisfying. I have a few pieces of hide that I sometimes use to move hot pots but I didn't bring them this time. Regarding free time, I never have free time to spare. It's all work here. Hahaa!

[@TroutWest]

Gold Butte area. Very rich in native history. 🙏

[@ChadZuberAdventures]

Have you been there?

[@arxxic7059]

When I watch your videos, especially in this one, the landscape makes me imagine some sort of Dinosaur lurking around haha! Something about the land just seems so prehistoric and ancient.

[@ChadZuberAdventures]

Yeah, this landscape does look prehistoric. Who knows how old the petroglyphs are.

[@arxxic7059]

@@ChadZuberAdventures yeah I was wondering the same thing! It’s so incredible.

[@chrismackay8314]

Beautiful work

[@HeatherNaturaly]

A bit o rawhide would make a good hot pad/pot holder, and you wouldn't have to worry about spilling the contents of your pots.

[@ChadZuberAdventures]

Yeah, I actually have a few pieces of hide that I can use. There are a few small pieces at my hut that I use for grabbing hot pots.

in Romania we have a similar food called carne la untura or meat preserved in fat

[@ChadZuberAdventures]

Very similar. How does it taste?

[@Anne-MariesCD]

We in South Africa makes Biltong Dried meat covert in spices. Keeps a long long time

[@eqlibrium854]

Excellent. Could you have used the hot fat to rehydrate the seaweed too?

[@troobix_s]

5:10 - hey, Chad! I think you need to make a map of all of your findings. And maybe even after you may change your location or something, to release it and maybe even with the government permission and help to make signboards so that people can follow Chad's steps and steps of the ancestors. After all, you make history too 😁

[@ChadZuberAdventures]

No way man! That would only lead to the destruction of all these places. I've seen places where the location of the petroglyphs was shared in blogs and a few years later those petroglyphs were victim to graffiti. I shall continue to travel as a lone stealth warrior.

[@troobix_s]

@@ChadZuberAdventures I understand! 😀

[@shanewhite4256]

@ChadZuberAdventures If I could share some knowledge with you that I have recently learned? Are you aware of the flowering stalk of the Agave being a vital source of sugary energy, one should cut the stalks into 6 inch pieces and cook on a fire over night then the stalks can be used for long trips as a nice sweet snack from the next morning onwards. Hope this is helpful to you dear friend really really enjoying your wonderfully knowledgeable videos thanks 🙏🏽 I really appreciate you sharing this knowledge and I hope I have also shared a bit of the same with you. All the best.

[@ChadZuberAdventures]

Yes, I am well aware of the process to cook both agave and yucca stalks. I don't practice cooking them because doing so prevents the plant from flowering and producing seed. It prevents the plant from fulfilling its life purpose - to reproduce.

i have a question, do you like put salt in your primitive foods? like extracting the salt from the oceanwater and boiling it until it dries?

[@dxbid]

also, i have not watched you for a while chad, i'm glad to be back

[@ChadZuberAdventures]

Welcome back! The seaweed naturally has salt in it. I also have a technique to dry seaweed and collect the salt from it.

[@Rettungssocke]

I wonder if you can get pepper or salt in this area to add some flavour.

[@ChadZuberAdventures]

Salt can be acquired but far away

[@Rettungssocke]

A 10 pack of that freeze dried meat is 1352.00 on sale from 1590.00 dollars. A 4 pack is 524.00 on sale from 616.00 dollars. A single pack is 93.00 on sale from 109.00 dollrs. Each pack is 12 oz. Thats 42 oz of "fresh" meat. Or 2 pounds and 10oz of beef.

🔥🔥🔥Greetings, colleague🤝 You have a great channel, you are developing. Do you work with National Geographic? Rock paintings, I suppose, are not simple. Do you choose the filming locations in advance, coordinating them with your superiors? Or yourself, as an amateur? It is very interesting, informative, and most importantly, the content, information and the way it is presented are unique. You are the only one of your kind on KZbin🙌

[@ChadZuberAdventures]

Greetings! I work alone. I don't have a team. I don't have superiors. For this video I didn't know exactly where I was going to film. I was exploring and then I found this place and decided it was a good place to make pemmican.
