## Ingredients

- 2 lb ground beef
- 1 pint tallow
- 5 tsp honey
- 1 pinch sea salt
- dehydrated strawberries

## Instructions

1. Cook 2 pounds of ground beef.
2. Strain the excess fat from the ground beef; it needs to be very lean to get crispy meat.
3. Put the cooked ground beef in the oven to dehydrate at 350 Fahrenheit (or 300 F as per description) for about 4 hours, sticking a wooden spoon in the oven for proper circulation.
4. Grind the dehydrated meat with a food processor until small and crumbly.
5. Put the ground beef into a glass baking dish.
6. Melt your grass-fed and finished tallow.
7. Add 5 teaspoons of raw honey and a hefty pinch of mineral salt to the melted tallow, tasting as you go.
8. Pour the honey, tallow, and salt mixture over the crispy beef.
9. Use a wooden spoon to ensure all the beef is submerged well under the tallow.
10. Add dehydrated strawberries (or other freeze-dried fruit) if desired.
11. Let them sit in the fridge for a few hours until they get hard.
12. Cut and wrap each bar individually with parchment paper and tie it with a little bow.
