Dry Meat 140g
Dry Meat has been a sacred delicacy for First Nations, Inuit, and Metis people since time immemorial."Pânsâwân" ("bahn-sa-wan") translates to thin sliced meat from the Cree (Nehiyaw) language. Traditionally, this meat was obtained after a successful hunt and was carefully dried and smoked for many days by the tribe's men and women, giving it that distinct flavor. The resulting Dry Meat is how our ancestors replenished themselves during the long, harsh Canadian winters.

Amazing! It’s my children an I’s favourite treat! The closest thing you can get to dried meat (moose)! It’s absolutely magical!! Ekosani😊

Excellent meat, best enjoyed with butter and salt, as advertised. Thank you for providing this beautiful nourishment, Masi.
First time order of several different products. Thank you for sharing your traditional Indigenous foods. Very tasty and healthy. Wishing Ian, his family & his team at Mitsoh many blessings and continued success!

This Dry bison has 2 ingredients. Bison and Smoke. The smoke is not overpowering and I'm pretty sure this would be natural smoke from a smoking -drying process and not liquid smoke like store bought jerky. It brings out the taste of the bison which I could best describe as somewhere between grass fed beef and whitetail deer. Simple, clean protein.
I really enjoy this Dry Bison, and I usually take a couple of pieces for my lunch when at work or at play. I often add some pink sea salt, or Celtic sea salt since I prefer salty food. The Celtic sea salt seems to adhere better to the dry meat since its a slightly damper salt.
The meat is quite dry which is not a bad thing if you like dry jerky. It's great for travel and gives you something to chew on for a bit. I'm pretty sure my jawline has improved from eating this.
I understand this is a traditional recipe and If I were to offer one critique or bit of feedback is that a salted version would be a product offering that I would buy and eat almost daily
Thank you so much for the thoughtful review! We’re glad you’re enjoying the Dry Bison and really appreciate how you described the flavour and tradition behind it. Traditionally, salt and even butter were often paired with dry meat, so we love hearing your idea—it connects right back to those roots. We’ll definitely keep your feedback about a salted version in mind as we grow. Thanks again for your support and for making Mitsoh part of your daily routine! 🙌
This reminds me of gatherings in northern Saskatchewan with trappers and hunters. Of course it was generally moose but the same spirit is there.
Thank you so much for sharing that — it means a lot. That spirit of gathering, tradition, and connection to the land is exactly what we hope to honour with every strip. We're grateful to be a part of those memories, even in a small way.
