[Ghillie999]

Great video and a great way to cure meat. I live in Northern Saskatchewan Canada which is perfect for this ......very cold and really dry.

Cheers

[spectralmunchkin]

Mika I tried this with some elk. It is delicious! Thanks for sharing

[KURGAN44]

Really cool! My grandparents talked of doing this when they were younger and living in Oklahoma where the winters were similar to your descriptions. Great post, loved seeing your mom interact with you. Be well man!

Nice to see they keep their neighbors hanging around muahahaha =P -.o

[phrankus2009]

Have you preserved fish or Caribou or other meats, in this same way ?

... Looks like a Mora Knife, your Mother is wielding.

[goatgoat1358]

how do you stop the birds from eating the meat

[steinderbush]

Its a kind of jerkey, i guess!! Making my own jerkey, i prefere this above this heavely salted meat. As you know to much salt is dangerous for your body!!

[watertothepeople]

nice video Mika,

so you say you have to hydrate it before eating..seeing you and your mother eating it right away..was that just to taste? did you put the rest in water? how long? could you put less salt on it to cure, so you can always eat it without hydrating?

[MVsBushCraft]

@watertothepeople You can eat the meat as it is, let's say like a snack or on a sandwich. If you decide to use the meat in stews or soups it is recommended to hydrate it. Otherwise you will get too much salt in your meal.

Kind regards, Mika

Mothers are good everybody should have one :-)

[Raptorman117]

It looks wonderful!

I was wondering, do you need to cook the meat at all? The fat on the cuts of meat your mother used were still white, so my guess was no, but I simply wanted to make sure.

Thank you for your time, and for all of the helpful videos!

[MVsBushCraft]

@Raptorman117 Your guessed right, you can eat the dried meat as it is. Just remember to hydrate thou, the meat contains much salt.

Thanks for your support!

Kind regards, Mika

What are ideal overnight/daytime temps for this recipe? We have had some extreme swings here in northern Minnesota., meaning -30f to +35-40f in a matter of just a few days.

Way to pass it on!!

[MVsBushCraft]

@nevisfire You should be alright if the temperature stays bellow 30 F degrees that equals to subzero in Celsius degrees.

Thanks for taking the time to watch!

Cheers!

This is a good video. Old pioneers used to do something pretty simular by salting meat and let it cure in cool to cold temp's. We have had pretty cold temp's here in Indiana winters and this winter I am going to give it a try.

Looks great. Thanks for your videos.

[rudyschalk]

Never heard about this. Great to know. Thanks!

[ThePathfinder71]

how about using regular table salt??? you said use sea salt this is why i ask.

[MVsBushCraft]

@ThePathfinder71No problem using regular salt. Why I mention sea salt is that in Sweden you can buy it in large bulk bags like 2 kg (4 pounds).

Cheers, Mika

[MVsBushCraft]

@MVsBushCraft Oh by the way the sea salt is also much cheaper.

[MrRollandMartin]

Nice.

How long will it last? What temperature range during the drying process? Also, how do you keep the birds off it?

[swergis]

Thanks. Shall use this in a lesson.

[FranceBushcraft]

Nice videos, good food and mum !!

You're happy !!

Thanks for sharing.

[Virihaure]

Det ser fint ut det där, inte utan att man blir lite avis på att du har den tillgången på det.

[MVsBushCraft]

@Virihaure Morsan gör inga direkt

större mängder , men man får med sig en

stadig smakbit varje gång man hälsar på :)

Men det är 100 mil Stockholm-Haparanda

så det blir inte så ofta man skulle vilja..

Ha det gott !

Great video, always neat to see different ways to preserve food. Nice looking country in back ground also.

[MVsBushCraft]

I thought it would be nice to share a old traditional way to preserve meat, it seems that very few people in southern Sweden knows this method.

(non in my age except my cousins )

But we seldom have the right type of weather in Stockholm.

I envy my parents whom wake up every morning to that scenery.

I woke up, ate breakfast and said " today i´m going to tar my skis head out to the woods"

and that´s what i did for a week.

A nice week it was :)
