I would probably substitute bison tallow for the lard, but this is pretty darn close to what I know as traditional #pemmican! I also believe that honey or maple syrup can be used in place of refined sugar.
Pemmican
By Patricia Rowland
Ingredients
Dried meat (buffalo, game or beef)
Dried #chokecherries (juneberries can be used as well) (use about the same amount as the dried meat)
Sugar to taste
Lard (to hold together) Do not use shortening or butter.
Directions
Pound meat very thin and dry in the oven [or a food dehydrator]
Grind the dried meat in a food processor [or grinder].
Add the chokecherries and blend together.
The consistency should be dry and loose with fruit broken up.
Add melted lard slowly while mixing.
Two tablespoons of fat are used for each 4-5 ounces of meat plus 1/3 cup of fruit.
Fat changes the consistency and makes it appear semi-moist instead of dry and improves the flavor and texture. Store in paper bags."

Hey fellow #Canadians looking for some ultimate #MadeInCanada #Food? Check out #Mitsoh and their #Pemmican

Years ago, I once posted a recipe for chokecherry jam and a guy flipped out on me, telling me that chokecherries are deadly poison. I told him that he was wrong, and that chokecherries were eaten by my ancestors for thousands of years. They are an ingredient in pemmican. Dude went off the fricking rails so hard he had me second-guessing myself. And I grew up foraging.
I wonder why that triggered him so hard? People are weird. #chokecherries #pemmican #IndigenousFood #foraging #forager #WildCraft

I can't recommend #Pemmican as "survival"/camping food enough.
1. Dry lean beef at ~45 C until it breaks.
2. Blend into powder.
3. Render same weight of tallow and mix it thoroughly with powdered beef.
4. Norm it in any forms and sizes you like, let it cool. IIRC ~300g is about 2000kcal.
5. Eat it as is or make "pemmican soup" with ingredients you like (or just salt & pepper).
