Pemmican

<h1>Pemmican!</h1> <p>Just pemmican. No tofu, no algae, no OJ, no straw!</p> <p>Preserve meat the old way: dry it into jerky, smash the jerky to dust, cook the dust with fat into pemmican. Trail food that keeps for months.</p> <p><strong>Make jerky, two ways:</strong></p> <ul> <li><strong>Smoke it.</strong>&nbsp;Fit a smoking rack onto an empty firepit, hang your meat, add firewood, and spark it. Be patient. This ain't your highfalutin smokehouse of cut cobble and planed boards.</li> <li><strong>Dry it.</strong> No wood to spare? Stand a drying rack in warm, dry air and let the weather do the work, slow and free. Rain sets you back, humidity rots it first.&nbsp;</li> </ul> <p><strong>Then:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Smash jerky with a rock in the crafting grid to make&nbsp;jerky dust.</li> <li>Cook 1 to 3 dust with rendered fat in a pot to make&nbsp;pemmican. Add salt for longer shelf life.</li> <li>Seal it in a crock to keep for the long haul.</li> </ul> <h2>Plays nice with</h2> <p><strong>Butchering.</strong> Adds primemeat jerky and powder, and grinds Butchering's smoked meats into jerky powder too.</p> <p><strong>Expanded Foods.</strong> Dried fruit can go into pemmican, and the drying rack will dry fresh fruit into dried fruit.</p> <p><strong>Primitive Survival.</strong> Grind 4 of its jerky into jerky powder.</p> <p><strong>Sonya's Meat Mod</strong><strong>.</strong> Dry Sonya's meat into jerky.</p>
