Skills like this should never be forgotten.
That giggle when he completed all the work says a thousand words! ❤
Cree is a beautiful language, I hope it never disappears.

Thank you for sharing. Native cultures of all countries have so much passed down knowledge to share and it's pure gold.
I learned this from my native uncles, from Ireland, Scotland.

Thank you for sharing the wisdom of your tribe. It's greatly appreciated.
That was great! Thanks for sharing. Megwich
Beautiful video MAY YOUR PEOPLE RISE AGAIN. 🙏🙏🙏🌍
Great video, CBC! Thanks!
It is amazing to see a tradition that once was the means of survival for so many. I tried to find Pemmican online but it's now just a brand name/ a name for fruit and nut bars. I'm tempted to one day make/ try it!
when you make it, make sure to get your fat from suet (the fat around the organs) or from grass finished ruminants. The less unsaturated fat, the better; both from a health perspective and from a shelf stability perspective.
3:36 just keeping an old tradition alive...
thank you for this knowledge sir.
These Warriors making of the pemmican make um me happy of my proud native heritage, my proud native people, and my proud name. Chief Harold Shitonastick.
...must be jealous Pike
xDDD
Crees, Denes, Mohawks, And Iroqois are wonderful
Thank you. Great lesson from great people.
The people who disliked this video are just Australians trying to like the video.
😂😂😂
Mindy Lingard Lmfao good one.
Wow lol
Sorey mate. Got turned updown a bit
This is excellent and what I was looking for. Thank you so much for uploading this video.
Thank you for showing the (kind of) old school way of making pemmican without all the fancy gadgets.
Just for that alone you now have a new subscriber
💯❤🇺🇸
"the powder is done now" translation : "I'm tired of pounding this rock, so let's move on"
😂😂😂😂😂😂
😄
Great video! Looking forward to more!
Cool! Thanks for sharing that. Been making and eating pemmican for a while but haven't made it yet with a meat pounder on a rock. Glad to see it works very well and probably better than with a meat grinder as I've been doing. Bear fat must be rich as hell in nutrients.
We add sugar for flavor I never seen videos of this of other cultures making their own way must be delicious I'm from NWT my mom made this
Thank you for sharing this knowledge.
Reminds me of home. I’m not Cree, but pemmican as it’s widely called, is something I remember growing up with. Along with “Indian ice cream” made of soap berries. Many thanks for sharing this video!
Thank you for showing your ways.
Pretty interesting, thanks for sharing that.
cooking is a science, a slow process that requires patience.
Really enjoyed this very informative video 🙏🏿🇺🇸
thank you for sharing this skill.
Whoa! Everything I ever read about pemmican stated that the meat was NOT cooked in any way before being dried and pounded into powder and mixed 50/50 with hot tallow.
maybe it depends on the tribe that's making pemmican.
thank you
I grew up on Caribou meat mostly ..
Nice.😁
Thank you!
Our native tongue will return along with it our peoples and traditions.
thank you for sharing :)
Thank you for a piece of heritage that is slowly being forgotten in today's world ! I have a question to ask; if you don't have bear lard, what is the best lard you would use making it with fish ? Also , can it be done with chicken ? Or is it too dangerous because of samonila ? I'm allergic to red meat so I must find another source ! Thank you in advance for any reply ...
you can use fish but it has to be dried out until it breaks and you can grind. You can use pig fat also
Thank you! :)
Thank you, this is great for the apocalypse coming.
Excellent video? Good bless the Cree nation! Your living the dream! Just be careful looks like your pot is a Teflon pan, those are extremely toxic, get a cast iron or stainless steel if it is, we want you to be healthy and live long lives so you can carry on the traditions of the glorious first Nations/ American Indian people!! God bless from America!
The very important to every one is helping each other give and take lets help and build build up to face our future
Would Love to of Been,There To Try that. I've Never Tried, It and Want too oneday.😊
Once prepared, is it squashed out thin on a plate (or stone or piece of wood) and allowed to dry (either 'air' or by a low fire)... and then broken up & packed? I heard what he said about it tasting best when frozen, but I assume it's made in the Fall after hunting?.
I'm just wondering what the final steps are after you reach the stage that he did in the video. Does anyone know?
Amazing
Mmm looks yummy
RESPECT AND TY FOR SHARING I DID NOT KNOW YOU CAN ALSO USE FISH POWER I BET THATS OUTRAGEOUSLY DELICIOUS I AM ONLY NOW FINDING OUT ABOUT MY NATIVE AMERICAN HISTORY THATS BEEN HIDDEN FOR GENERATIONS
Anyone notice the guy with the string operating the hammock LOL
Cool
I can see that the natives too are suffering from overweight problems. I was obese too but managed to loose 70 pounds. Still at 180 pounds but the doc said it saved my life...for some time, at least. Its never too late to do something good for yourself.
I noticed that too.
yummy
If I every get a bear I'd like to try this. I raise grass fed cattle. Does anyone know if their tallow would make good pemmican? Great video. Thank you for sharing your wisdom.
The Metis made their pemmican from bison fat , I think.🤔
You want to render "white tallow (fat)". Yellow tallow will give it a rotten/unpleasant taste. Doesn't matter the animal.
@RawkTrotter
Everything I've read tells me that bear fat is the most succulent. I'd kill for a taste of that stuff!
so how did they use to make it, before they had any of the tools he used?
Are you asking about the blanket, and the two rocks he used? Perhaps the knife and the wood fire. I would imagine they used a clay pot to cook in. When finished and dry they wrapped it in animal hide to protect it. It's just dried meat and fat but the fat is a preservative so no refrigeration is needed. Adding berries though improving the flavor also decreases the shelf life.
It would be a wooden pot overtop of stones that were heated up over a fire(at least before the Europeans came) and also a wood and stone pounder and a wooden or stone or possibly obsidian knife. (probably not obsidian, I just know they used that for arrowheads sometimes). The blanket would be hide, and I have no idea what the sift would be.
@@heir67 they would sift it through their squint y eyes , because they had no sifters the tighter they made them the more powdery the meat you see? not really because my eyes are full of fine meat dust!
Did the Sioux and Cheyenne make it the same way buffalo?
@RawkTrotter
Interesting that the gentleman felt it necessary to sieve the powdered meat to keep it ultra-fine. I know of a commercial outfit that uses grass-feed cows exclusively. Everyone says grass-fed beef or wild game is best and tastes completely above and beyond feedlot cattle. Explorer Vilhjalmur Stefansson stated the mix had to be a strict 50/50 by weight but I guess a traditionalist can do it by eye.
Elder daughter doesn't look too thrilled.

Where is this?
@RawkTrotter
The likes of Roald Admunsen and Ernest Shackleton mixed things like oats or pea flour etc., and it made for a tasty mix, but the likes of Peary and Stefansson insisted that those were extras and should be carried separately to be discarded for the straight stuff in an emergency. Pemmican is indelibly associated with polar exploration but it's an invention of the Plains Indians and was first adopted by the Canadien fur traders who had to paddle vast distances quickly.

Traditional, native pemmican! Thanks for sharing
Can someone pleeeez describe how this tastes?
Couldn't have asked for a more accurate description. I can practically taste it!
The Truth It tastes like a granola bar made out of gamey beef and the grease off of someone's neckbeard.
If you make pemmican with farmed deer, beef fat, and cranberries it tastes a bit better, but all in all it's powdered meat melted in fat.
Little Miss Birdy THANK YOU :D finally I get a proper description! haha "grease off of someones neck beard" I dont know if I want to taste this anymore.
If you make it with nuts, berries, prairie plums it tastes like a really good energy bar.
in hour modern world we have so much luxury but we have poisened the world
And what do you want to do? Go back to the days of hunting, foraging, wiping your ass with leaves, and dying from preventable illnesses before your 30th birthday?
@@DarDarBinks1986 You aren't actually interested in solutions, are you?!
Why does this elder remind me of the last Japanese Emperor? What other fat can be used, if you can't get hold of bear fat?
Do I buy the fat from a butcher at a grocery store,? Do I just ask for beef/meat fat? Or suet or tallow?
mahsi
I’m making some using beef
Add some good as weed and you'll be living it up
😂😂😂
Assuming this is used as a primary food while isolated for a long period, adding berries is a very good idea. They provide vitamin C, one of the few vitamins the human body cannot produce itself. Not enough vitamin C, and you get scurvy, a serious and potentially fatal condition.
Caribou Meat is unique. it has lots on minerals and Vitamins your body needs..
If the meat is dried from raw, then you don't need to worry about Vitamin C. Read The Fat of the Land (Not by Bread Alone) by Vilhjalmur Stefansson. He gives an excellent summary on the history and knowledge of eating only meat (or pemmican for that matter), and it's relation to scurvy.
Far less nutritious having been boiled!
Incorrect, you don't need vit.C on a meat/fat diet. You actually don't need anything else except water.
adding berries or grains reduces shelf life
The old guy looks so much like Asian. I have a question, are the Inuits and Native Americans of North America related?
Not really their Culture and Native Culture are different. should check Inuit winter games if you think been small makes you weak....:)
The woman could stand to eat the pemmican rather than vegetable oil frybread and pizza.
needs garlic mate.
hE married Steven Seagal? Nice to see him being good wife helping with cooking.
@Tobudz
Native Americans evolved of Asian after crossing a land bridge a million years ago so they share the shiny black hair genitics as azns but these particler Native Americans in the video are unusually short be being a meat eating people. Most Asians are vegetarians and eat rice and stay short while most Native American eat more meat than veggies and thus the protein make them much taller.
man, guess you have never been to Canada if you think Natives are short you'll be surprise if you meet other Natives. we come in all shapes and sizes..plus the ones that look more Asian we know them as Inuits.
Hairee Stener
More like 15,000 years.
You’re talking about Inuit. Cree people are similar in size to Inuit but they are different.
He said, "I'll use bear fat," all nonchalant like having bear fat is nbd. Sir, that is from a fucking bear.
I know it's very immature but at 3:36 you have to giggle.
Mctrippa83 hahahaha
Disrespect our elders, fuck you
🤣🤣🤣🤣
looks like that bloke's wife has been sneaking in tons of potatoes on the QT...
Mobius Trip naw just means he's a great hunter and takes care of his woman something most men forgot lol
Wait till you get old loser.
That's probably from cheap processed food.
*Cultural appropriation question.* Pemmican is a food of North American natives and I am a white guy.
Is it cultural appropriation for me to make pemmican?
Or would it only be cultural appropriation if I sold it, made a profit, and made no mention of it being a native food?
Finally, what about my Pakistani girlfriend? Would the same cultural appropriation standards apply to her?
Stop with the "cultural appropriation" thinking. It's an insult to all cultures.
17 Thus saith the LORD, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am the LORD thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go.
God made it possible to survive here.
Couldn't help but cringe as he ruined that non-stick coating in that pot.
I had to squint to watch that part, first thing I did was check the comments to see if anyone else noticed
No No nonstick coating is toxic. maybe get this good man a cast iron pot
Teflon is one of the more most inert compounds ever created. In fact, it is used to line bottles for holding Fluoroantimonic acid, the most powerful acid known. So there is NOTHING in a human body that could possibly affect Teflon. if you were to eat it. It would just pass though your intestines and you would poop it out.
Nice looking video and speaking what appears to a native tongue is a nice touch, but really, boiled meat?! You're kidding, right?
Native Americans would have used the organ meat too as it is far more nutritious than muscle meat, and contains nutrients not found in muscle meat.
This is a Native American 😣 you can’t tell a Native American elder that what he does is not Native American. Jesus Christ.
Back in the day when starvation was silently killing my ancestors, they used every single part of any game they killed. Of course when larger animals such as bears and caribou were killed, there was plenty of meat that needed to be preserved for later...and since we were nomadic people, the travelling forced them to find ways to not waste it. They boiled the meat, dried it and used some of it for this purpose....the organs as well were preserved...Today, we still practice this as it has become tradition. Sandy Masty was my grandfather and he passed away several years ago. I had the privilege to film him making this dish for me and my CBC crew. I grew up on this stuff and still eat it whenever I have the chance!
A native American elder would know how to make it. so saying something about boiling the meat is just is just stupid.
Looks like those ladies need to get up and do some exercise....
I want to see this without any European influence.....
I want to know how to make the food of my people without tents, pots, pans, strainers, plastics..... other than a happy well fed family, it's the same crap I see everywhere else on RUclips
