Best Fatty Proteins

Actually it’s leprosy and the 7 ringed armadillo carries the disease.

You are correct, David. Good catch!

But I wouldn’t want either one.

I was thinking what a pity this was because I could probably take down an armadillo whereas I’d have no chance with larger animals - then I remembered I run screaming from moths so maybe not

I will be going to the grocery store to try pastrami.

It’s well worth it

Oh and I forgot about corned beef. Is that like corned beef and cabbage? Keto friendly?

[Janie]

Corned beef and cabbage is absolutely keto friendly!

Need Advice on Upping Fat

CORNED BEEF HASH RECIPE Corned beef, especially all the fatty cap you might trim off and meat scraps chopped up. Finely diced onion and plenty of salt and white pepper and msg if you’re not harboring a food prejudice against it like many have about nitrates. This is all to taste. I like to process a portion of it in a food processor to really mince some of it into a paste and then mix it all back together. This gives some bond to it so it’s not just a bunch of chopped up stuff and will cook int…

I bought a half pound of pastrami.

It’s really savory and peppery. It’s soooooo . Me and my son absolutely love it. Next week I want to buy more and make low carb sandwhich roll-ups.

They were really yum!

maybe trying to find a way to cook chicken thighs or chicken legs while retaining some of the fat. Not sure how I’ll pull that off just yet

Make gravy out of the the fat and pan juices!

better than bacon…

I’m sorry, I’m not familiar with this language. Could you provide an English translation, please?

There isn’t one, that’s why he had to use that weird word combination.

I don’t eat pork, or any other carnivore like bears or wolves or anything like that.

That’s my opening line of the week right there

[LeCheffre]

Slowly this time.

Pastrami has:
Better fat
Better protein
And More interesting flavor
Than bacon.

Especially commercial bacon that has never seen real smoke.

Slowly this time.

THAT’S FITTING!

Still trying to find beef bacon online.

Not sure which part of the world you’re in, but here’s one source. I really like US Wellness. Though they do have a minimum weight order, which is based on the bulk needed to keep the items frozen in the shipment. (Their liverwurst is really good too.)

Nothing, and I repeat, NOTHING has more interesting flavor than bacon.

She’s in Alaska.

And yes, they eat bears, up there.

[kandescent]

She’s in Alaska

My point, which was perhaps too subtle, was that maybe she wouldn’t be able to order from the resource I posted because of her location.

[dlc96_darren]

My point, which was perhaps too subtle

No probs, Pier.

Just answering the question, with a little humor.

Mainly because I had made fun of the eating bears comment earlier, before I was properly put in my place.

Are there any fatty sources of protein out there that are rarer and worth looking out for on travels etc?

I.e. most of us have access to bacon, ribeyes, pork belly etc. Are crocodiles a good source of fatty protein? Ostrich?

I’m interested in any great (and legal) sources that are uncommon but if you could ever get your hands on them, it would be one of the best keto-friendly meats you’ve ever laid your hands on.

I’ve had alligator out here in Portland, tho it’s more common in the South, but it’s super low in fat, so no good for my diet outside of its novelty.
