Pork on Pork on Pork—and a Little Bit of Beef

June 15, 2025 By elviira 2 Comments

Ever had one of those days when you just stare into your fridge, thinking, “You know what? There’s simply not enough pork in my life right now.” No? Just me? Well, prepare to remedy that situation with what I can only describe as a meat lover’s fever dream.

This little gem of a recipe literally popped into my head yesterday morning as I was waking up. I wasn’t even planning to post anything this week—I’ve been up to my eyeballs in tallow-rendering and jerky-making, not to mention creating content for my Finnish followers. It’s been chaos!

And let’s be honest, with Google repeatedly slashing my blog traffic, sometimes I wonder why I bother. Can you believe I had more traffic back in 2012 when I first started than I do now? Ridiculous. Google seems to have it out for keto and carnivore blogs—probably because these diets actually work for healing all sorts of health issues. Heaven forbid Big Pharma and Big Food lose a penny to people getting healthier through diet!

But this recipe idea was too good not to share. So here I am, Google algorithms be damned, bringing you what might be the meatiest meatballs ever conceived. You’re welcome.

Pork Rind Crusted Christmas Ham

December 15, 2024 By elviira 4 Comments

Ah, the holidays! A time for joy, laughter, and the inevitable food coma that follows a hearty Christmas feast. If you’re anything like me, the star of your festive table is none other than the gloriously succulent (Finnish) Christmas ham. But hold onto your Santa hats, folks—this isn’t your grandma’s ham recipe. Nope, I’ve taken this traditional Finnish favorite and given it a carnivore twist that’ll have you singing “Jingle Bells” all the way to the dinner table.

You see, while the classic recipe calls for breadcrumbs and keto enthusiasts might opt for almond flour, I’ve discovered the ultimate fiber-free, carnivore-approved alternative: crushed pork rinds. Yes, you read that right. Pork on pork action, baby! This ingenious swap not only keeps things keto-friendly but also adds an irresistible crunch that will leave your taste buds caroling with joy.

Happy feasting, and may your holidays be as crispy and savory as your new favorite ham recipe!

Carnivore Sipatti with Smoked Pork

September 8, 2024 By elviira 2 Comments

Welcome to the wild world of culinary adventures, where today, we’re diving into the deliciously daring dish known as Carnivore Sipatti with Smoked Pork. Now, if you’re scratching your head and wondering, “What on earth is a sipatti?” you’re not alone. Sipatti might sound like a quirky, made-up word, but in reality, it’s a traditional Finnish dish that combines tender pork, milk, wheat flour, and spices like white pepper to create a thick, comforting sauce.

But hold onto your taste buds because we’re flipping the script with a carnivore twist that will have meat lovers rejoicing. In this version, we’ve ditched the milk and flour in favor of nutrient-dense bone broth, rich, smoky pork, and luxurious egg yolks that not only offer healthy fats but also help thicken the sauce to perfection. The result? A creamy, savory delight that’s pure protein-packed perfection. So, grab your apron and get ready to whip up a dish that’s as fun to say as it is to eat—sipatti, sipatti, sipatti! Let’s get cooking!
