The bread of the Wilderness. The Super Food. Pemmican. Pemmican is a 1:1 mixture of powdered jerky and animal fat. That’s it at least for a true recipe. Eventually, dried berries were added. From there a little honey and salt.
Pemmican was used by American Indians and European explorers to …

Bones (physiologically and nutritionally) fall into the category of organs (like liver, heart, kidney) -- the densest, most vital part of the animal (vital to the animal and to you). Before you close this window for the gross factor swearing you'd never lay your tongue on such things even if they …

The concept of a meatza to someone new to eating an ancestral diet or paleo diet may look as awesome yet unhealthy as an episode of Epic Mealtime: a meat 'crust' with toppings that usually include more meat, vegetables, and often bacon.
