1 cup of dried/powder/grinded cranberries

1/2 cup of Quaker oats "oatmeal" dried/grinded

Dash of ginger powder

Dash of Tony Chacheres creole seasoning.

Dash of Cayenne pepper.

Mix powdered jerky and grinded cranberries and oats into bowl add in honey/syrup 4 tablespoons roughly. mix together with spoon or hands work better.

I took several pieces to work today and let 10 co-workers try a piece. I got positive feedback from all of them, they said it was really good.

I believe she is the queen to that creepy Burger King in the commercials. You can tell by the subtle "love chunks" tattoo near the cup. Nice to see a woman who knows and flaunts her assets. The visual of the what the coin slot holds is scary though.

Yes Fulldraw!! Recipe diddn'y mention melting the peanut butter. Mine is lacking from just mixing it in but it will have to do. Added walnuts as well ground in my coffee grinder

 

[BIG D]

Well the end result, turns out pretty good considering the PB fiasco. Starts off sweet, tasting cranberries and walnuts. Then spice comes thru at the end (and following). The wife tried and said it was good but cut back on the spice next time. He He !
Guess I made everything Tbl SPOONS versus tsp.. Ooops!!

Exactly how its supposed to taste. I am testing a few pieces in the fridge and at room temp. None have spolied yet.

 

[trealtree]

It was rather warm when I was making this. But I did not melt the peanut butter. I think it would work better melting it though.

 

[BIG D]

Chief Trealtree.. ummm... pemmican good ..hmmm. just not enough. When my boys eat this everbody will want more of this. May have to charge for my special pemmican.Cuz I see orders coming already. LOL.UMMM. Heck of a process from thawing ground for jerky, spicing, dehydrating to pemmican but man !! I strongly urge everyone to try this 1 time.
But be prepared to be hooked. Call this stuff... Crack Jerky.

Pemican is a great use for that leftover venison you find in the back of the freezer from the previous yr.

I turn all my leftover into jerky and run it through the food processor then make the Pemican. When that is done, I cut and wrap the bars in alum. foil and place in a air tight container in the freezer for storing it, it last a long time that way.

The pemican is great on those hiking and fishing trips as well.

I made ny 2nd batch last night. 1st time I added a 2oz bag of ground walnut pieces. This time all I had was some cajun peanuts to use.I doubled the batch up. Melting that cup of peanut butter is the way to go. Oh, also ground up a 1/4 cup of dried bannana pieces.
Really good as a late night snack with a glass of milk.
Taste that peanut butter and cranberrries about the time the cajun and cayenne kick in. Really unique and tasty!

 

[416wbymag]

any idea how much ground meat you have to start with to get the 1/2 cup ground jerky?

 

[ShaneHallum]

question.. What does the deer meat taste like with PB in the mix. I'm sure everything else would be great. but that seems like a wild combo to me.

I'm gonna give it a try.
