Dehydrate the beef.

• Cook the ground beef in your cooking pan on the stovetop until done. Don't add any fat while cooking.
• Once the ground beef is cooked, drain out all of the fat.
• Transfer the cooked ground beef to a plate. Pat the beef dry with a towel to soak up as much of the remaining fat as you can.
• Transfer the ground beef on top of a piece of parchment paper on your baking sheet. Spread the pieces out in as thin of a layer as possible to promote even baking.
• Dehydrate the ground beef in the oven at 200 degrees for 3-4 hours. You may have to rotate the pieces while cooking. I usually swirl everything around with a fork every 30 minutes or so or when I remember. The pieces should be hard and crunchy when done. I typically keep an eye on mine at about the 2-hour mark. Mine was done right around 3 hours.
• Once the beef is fully dehydrated, remove the beef pieces from the oven and let them cool.

Prepare the dates.

• Chop the pitted dates into bite-sized pieces.

Add all ingredients to your mixing bowl.

• Add the dehydrated ground beef bits, chopped dates, Carnivore Crisps Ribeye Crumbs (ASHLEYR for 10% off), and plantain chips into a large mixing bowl.
• Using your hands, mix ingredients well until they're evenly incorporated.
• Optional: break up any large plantain chips and globs of dates into smaller pieces.
• You probably won't need to, but add some salt to taste if preferred.

Serve and enjoy!
