I haven't been able to get suet, but I don't think this means I'm
doomed. My pemmican may not last indefinetly but this doesn't diminish

I'm not positive, but tallow is the any-animal fat used to make soap and

If the fat gets too hot it will smoke, which is unpleasant. It also will
create trans-fats and will cook the chipped beef when poured over it.

Looks like you're starting off well prepared.
