How To Make Pemmican: The Ultimate Survival Food

Alec Deacon by Alec Deacon

I’ve got a confession: I’ve wanted to make Pemmican ever since I found the recipe for it in The Lost Ways.

Invented by the natives of North America, pemmican was used by Indian scouts as well as early western explorers. These people spent a great deal of time on the go and depended on having portable, high-energy, highly nutritious, and filling foods that would last for long periods of time.

My friend Alan had mentioned on other occasions that he, like me, wanted to enhance his food reserves with this nutritious food. So, last weekend I cancelled all my awesome plans of staying at home and watching TV, in order to surprise him by showing up with the necessary ingredients to make a DIY pemmican video.

I grabbed my camera and headed out the door. On my way, I stopped at a local supermarket and purchased what we’d need to make a batch of pemmican. It’s super simple; here’s all you need:

  • 6 lbs. Beef
  • 2 lbs. Rendered Beef Tallow
  • 3 oz. Blueberries

When I arrived, Alan was pretty excited about the idea. We decided that he’d do all of the talking and I’d do the filming. So here it is:

In addition to being nutritious enough to be a stand-alone survival food, you may be surprised to learn that pemmican doesn’t taste bad, either. In fact, with time, it will grow on you.

I hope you enjoyed the video and that it will inspire you to try making pemmican yourself. And remember that many other survival secrets of our ancestors are still to be discovered if you get The Lost Ways book! Click the image below for more!

      The rendered beef tallow does that by forming a protective layer.
      If you’re still concerned, vacuum seal it.

    One person says to double boil the rendered fat to remove the extra water to make it last longer, does this mean to do the boiling in a double boiler, or boil it twice? I am confused by that comment.

      Use a double boiler.

    I pay a visit every day a few web pages and information sites to read articles, except this web site presents quality based articles.

      I have the lost ways books, both physical and digital. The information contained within these books are priceless. Trust me, if you want to know how the pioneers and our forefathers lived and survived, these books are worth their cost. I myself have , The Lost Ways, The Lost Ways #2, The Book of Lost Remedies. I’ve read all 3 books “cover to cover” multiple times, and each time I do, I learn something new. Even my son and daughter likes them. We’ve tried a few of the recipes in the books and are going to try more. The pemicine is a little time consuming to make, but we’ll worth it. It’s actually good!! Claude Davis done a excellent job writing and putting these books together. Credit also to those who helped him with doing so.
