Carnivore Crack Recipe:
Ingredients:
-
8 oz (225g) beef jerky (or your choice of other jerky like pork or turkey)
-
8 oz (225g) cheese (cheddar or mozzarella work well)
-
1 tablespoon butter or tallow (optional, for extra crispiness)
-
Salt (optional, to taste)
-
Pepper (optional, to taste)
-
Paprika (optional, for extra flavor)
Instructions:
-
Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
-
Prepare the Meat: Cut your beef jerky (or other preferred jerky) into smaller bite-sized pieces. If your jerky is on the tough side, you may want to slice it thinly.
-
Prepare the Cheese: Cut the cheese into small cubes or shred it, depending on your preference.
-
Butter or Tallow: If you want extra crispy, flavorful bites, melt butter or tallow in a pan over medium heat.
-
Layer Ingredients: On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, arrange the beef jerky pieces, followed by a layer of cheese cubes or shreds. If you’ve melted butter/tallow, you can drizzle it over the top of the meat and cheese for extra flavor.
-
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling and the jerky starts to crisp up.
-
Add Seasonings: Once done, remove from the oven and sprinkle with optional seasonings like salt, pepper, and paprika for extra flavor.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Let it cool for a few minutes, then break it into pieces and enjoy your homemade carnivore crack!
You can experiment with different types of jerky or add more cheese for extra richness. It’s a great snack for those on a carnivore or keto diet. Would you tweak this recipe to your liking?
