The new multi fuel stove and bottle seen in this video is final pre production prototype and will be available 2g 2022

Chef's tip - Line your mold with wax paper to make it easier to get out.

A small word of caution. If you are wanting the pemmican to be shelf stable for long periods then use only DRIED berry's and fruit. It you are going to enjoy within a couple weeks then fresh berry's and nuts are ok. --- Fresh fruit contains sugar and nuts contain oil. Both detrimental to LONG term storage. I am 77 years old and have been making this stuff since I was 13 years old. Grandma was a real pioneer and relied on this stuff to feed her family when weather was bad.

Dave Canterbury is my favorite survivalist instructor. I love his non nonsense approach to everything

Dave way back when Mammoths roamed the open steppe when I was a child we made pemmican with dried local berries and pecans. We melted our tallow in a pot and then laddled melted tallow in as we mixed the dried ground ingredients. We rolled it into a snake then cut that into 4 to 5 inch bars then wrapped them pretty much like you did.

Would love to see you keep a bar until like june/july 2022 and do a second video on how it held up and what it tastes like.

“Can you make jerky?” “I can’t but pemmican.” 😆

I always like seeing the "old skills" videos

And the butcher paper and twine will be a great fire starter.

Thanks Dave. Look up the Townsends suet video on KZfaq if you want a great explanation between Suet/tallow and regular muscle fat.

*_"Oh, man."_* - Dave's reply after putting anything in his mouth. _Nothing against pemmican... Just an observation from watching years of his videos._

One way would be to weigh your ingredients, just pemmican was a 1 to 1ratio with the Tallow. With other ingredients I think you may do the same. Thanks for a very good video for a camping and survival food 👍

For a mold, I think I've finally found use for the mini ice cube trays. They are for making 3/8-ish cubes because some people are to lazy to crush ice for cocktails. Pemmican bits the size of bullion cubes.

It should be pionted out that nut's with thier oils will shorten the shelf life, nut oils go rancid.

What everybody leaves out about pemmican is that it was very much a soup or stew starter or base. You would forage anything you could find along the trail, mushrooms, onions, herbs, roots, etc and make a stew with pemmican as the base. It was only eaten plain when there was just nothing to make with it.

It's not pemmican but Far North Bushcraft and Survival has a video where they make Trail bars out of Honey , PB , Oats , raisins and shredded coconut . I've made it and it's very good .

As someone who eats as much meat as I do, I'm really not sure how I don't know about Pemmican! I will be 100% be making this!!! Thank you Dave.

good to see you getting back to the pre-industrial classics!

I never knew there was a difference between tallow and lard. Every day's a school day. Thanks.

I am so excited for my bushcraft class in 2022 hearing what you guys did got me pumped up. Awesome video Dave I learned a ton!

Good lesson. It's always been a mystery to me how pemmican was made. Now I know. Thank you.

_I remember reading about pemmican but seeing it and how it's made has given me a better idea of what it is._

if you add just a little bit of salt it helps with preservation and helps bring out more flavor in the frute and meat powder making it less bland.

This has been on my to-do list for a long time. Mouth watering already. A 1000 bars a day and you got a product line.

Dave try that exact same recipe but add powdered jalapeno to it it is awesome gives a little bit of a bite a little bit of a kick but not nothing that's going to cook you

Thanks dave. I've been looking for ways to add shelf-life to meat. protip:i cut a small hole below the zip on each side when i don't want moisture in a ziplock. Alternatively, paper bag.

Love watching and learning new things from you Dave.

The only pemmican I've ever had is the processed stuff that came in the chewing tobacco tin from the store. I will be making this for hunting trips.

Just subscribed and saw this. Pretty ironic as I've been wanting to make pemmican for months. You simplified it and gave me the motivation to get after it. Thanks Dave! Great video!

This is awesome! Thank you for sharing. Was waiting for the difference between the tallow and/or lard and why it shouldn't be used. Love and blessings from Ontario Canada!

I've got a dehydrator and have made jerky in the past. Now that I've seen your video making pemmican bars will be my next step. Thanks!

Love your informative videos. Please keep them coming.

Speaking of Hudson Bay, PKS needs to debut their own Hudson Bay knife, to compete with Condor's. I like the Condor, but prefer 1095 as it seems to take a better edge than the 1075.

Thank you so much for doing this video. I have watched a few videos on how to make this and it just seemed to involved and the video made it look harder then needed. You broke it down and showed a simple way to do it. Easy enough for even me to understand. You rule Dave!

fantastic, learning lots from these kinds of videos. Thank you Dave🙏🏻 🇨🇦

Great video Dave. Anyone should be able to follow your directions and have a good trail food. Thanks for sharing

YES THANK YOU! I wanted or hoped you or Kelly would do a pemakin recipe!!

Thank you for your recipe David. Best one so far. I'll trying it out

Great things to know about in these times. Thank you for sharing! Stay safe and have fun!

i never knew this existed, thank you so much for your knowledge to help others in the outdoors

Thanks for sharing, clearly the simplest demonstration of pemmican! I literally ordered the beef tallow online while watching your video. Just made a big batch of deer jerky last week from a recent harvest. Thanks again. Pemmican on the way.

Great video Dave. When you stop for a snack and a brew, that paper is a perfect fire starter.

Definitely saving this video. Thanks for showing exactly how to do this.

Very helpful video thanks Dave. I have a project for the weekend lol.

Thanks for the recipe and instructions, Dave! One of the easiest ways I’ve seen to make it.

This is a nice surprise, I was planning on making Pemmican & this video shows up! Great!

Great content David! I'll be vacuum packing mine for long term storage. Thank you sir!!!

Love it! Thank you for the step-by-step!

This recipe looks great, I'll have to try it out at home, thanks! 👍

I’m excited to try this

Awesome video Dave

Thank you so much. I really like what you are teaching guys like me. This is so important to learn. Your a true boss. Love the video and I hope to keep seeing you in the future

This was a fun ride Great job brother

I bet dried cranberry would be complementary to that dried apple

I have used that PF skillet every day for the last two years and its still as solid as the day I got it.

Have a very Merry Christmas Dave you and your Family.

CONGRATULATIONS !!! GREAT VIDEO !!!

Very cool David! Love this stuff

Sharp knife! Great instructor. Thanks.

Thank you for sharing this Dave. I've wanted to do it, but have never been in a position to be able to go hunting and get the meat. I don't have to now that you mention it. I can get everything off of Amazon. On a brighter note, we just moved to the (more) free United States. I was finally able to get my family out of California. Hunting may be in the works in the next few years. I'm seriously looking forward to that. THANK YOU for everything you're doing, for us and our families. Never think you're not making a difference. Great video.

Learn something every video. Thanks Dave.

Great Dave i love this how to videos. Greetings from Sweden

I have never heard of Pemmican . Thanks for sharing your knowledge . On how to make eatible bars . To take with you . On hiking trips are hurting trips . Are winter survival . Have a great day .

Awesome video Dave.

Thanks for sharing Dave. I'll have to swipe the woman's dehydrator for a period of time to try this out

Great. I'm on it. Getting a dehydrator next week. Another good recipe vid.

thanks Dave very helpful as always. will it mold in humid enviornments

Thank you Dave great recipe

I also make pemmican, love that new stove setup…didn’t see this stove setup in the store….

Thanks David,,, Outstanding and Simple,,,!!!! Blessings to Y’all,,,,!!!!! Joshua

Great demonstration on making Pemmican, it look great Dave Canterbury,deer, apple's and walnuts is a great combination.,Hard Tac next,Dave.

Dear Dave, I hope this note finds you well and happy. As always my friend, thanks for another great video! Kindest regards and best wishes to you and yours, Merry Christmas, Pink.

I work in a butcher's shop. You can call a local shop and ask if they can save you some beef fat. Usually it's cheap.

Lol....I've known about Pemmican for a while....I get duck, chicken and beef jerky for my best buddy Shadow...(German shepherd)...I had to look at the package.....tempting to use it for my own Pemmican....hey, if I feed it to him, I should be willing to eat it myself......right? There is also another thing called ERBSWURST that I wanna try. It was a European "pea sausage", a survival food.

Thanks for the video bro I’ve been wanting to learn how to make this.

Thanks, Dave! Next up for black powder camp: Pemmican!

Great info Dave

Great video! I will be trying this.

Thanks. Great books and website products.

Very cool David!

Merry Christmas, Dave! :)

Heck yeah👍now this is why I subscribe years ago thanx Dave Happy Holidays to you&yours This was very to the point&easy I’ll have to give some of this for gift&my pantry as well Thanx agien man👍🤠👍

This was nice to see. I will be teaching my kids how to make this

I have heard this name floating around for awhile now, and wondered how it was made. Should have figured it was a simple recipe from a simpler time. That looks amazing! Thank you for finally putting this elusive blast from the past into my mental quiver. Any idea how many calories each one of those bars would be, or how many a day would keep you going if that's all you had? I've made sea biscuits before, and now really want to try this!

I was thinking of adding amazing greens

Deer hunting pack must have. Always grab me a couple bars when I head out for a morning or afternoon hunt.

Thank you so much for the video Dave

Cool video!

Never heard of dried apples being used. I bet it adds a great flavor along with some vital nutrients and minerals.

Great video! Thanks for taking the time to teach & share! Out of curiosity, any estimation of caloric values by weight or volume?

When I was a boy my dad told me about pemmican him and his father found back in the 1940's wrapped in deer hide at the base of a tree they were removing on the farm, he had no idea how long it was there for but said it was still good when they opened it up. A few years ago I made my own batch of beef & beef berries and greens I dried and ground everything used the tallow I made and I tell you what, I lived off that primarily with some carbs added on with each portion I ate for three days, I felt full and had energy every day. I didn't need much to maintain my energy levels either. Great long term food source that can be made in many different ways meeting our different tastes and nutrition requirements. Good video Dave, I always look forward to your content

Great information, thanks for sharing.

Thanks Dave! Definitely going to try this. Maybe then I won’t eat so many Cliff Bars! 😄 Where did you get that awesome looking pack basket? I want one!

Hi Dave, like what you taught us on Survival program. I have been looking for this recipe for years, this will keep you alive acourding to my grandfather, I'm 74. Thank you for this and every thing you share..!!!!!

Thanks Dave

We have no idea what pemmican was until we saw your "cooking show".! Now knowing that it has been around as long and as old as Corporal Corner, us old dogs can still be taught a thing or two..!! we probably has something similar but call it something else but nevertheless definitely learned something new. So reckon there will be more Pathfinder Cooking Show in 2022? It has to be good to be competitive with Corporal's recipe..!! Thank you for sharing. Stay safe folks. Have a great Christmas & safe New Year to you, your family and all affiliates. Greetings from Australia.

I like this video on how to make pemmican. Seems pretty easy and I like your choice of adding walnuts. Have you ever tried using black walnuts in pemmican Dave ? I will give your recipe a try, looks like a good one.

You can use a little wet tallow to grease the mold and it will not stick :)

great video, thanks for sharing! Do you add any salt or sugar? Both of those have preservative properties even beyond the drying aspect, might help with the flavor some too

thank you Mr. Canterbury
