Pemmican?

My kids were watching some cartoon, in it the old cook character kept his Bacon grease, he claimed it would keep and keep and keep
"in a pinch renderd Bacon grease is used to cure a carbon coating on gub barrels" like seasoning a skillet.
The Hudson Bay company used to put up Pemmican in hide bags that would keep up to 3 years or more
a documented case of 12 year old pemmican being eaten
Pemmican was used on SirJohn Franklin's first trip into the Northwest
a rescue mission I reccolect to save stranded explorrers
Very good calories and doesent require heating.
