Mitsoh Pânsâwân – Smoked Bison Dry Meat

Dry meat has been a sacred delicacy for First Nations, Inuit, and Métis people since time immemorial. Pânsâwân (“bahn-sa-wan”) translates to thin sliced meat in the Cree (Nehiyaw) language.

Traditionally, this meat was prepared after a successful hunt and carefully dried and smoked over many days by the community’s men and women, giving it its distinctive flavor. The resulting dry meat helped sustain our ancestors through the long, harsh Canadian winters.

Today, this traditional food continues to be enjoyed as a flavorful snack rooted in Indigenous knowledge and food traditions.
