High risk
Suān zhǎ ròu (酸鲊肉)
A Tujia sour pork preparation documented in southeastern Chongqing. Its rice-flour pork method is distinct from the wider suān ròu forms; a sixth-century pork-zha text is an earlier attestation, not proof of direct continuity.

High risk
Droëwors
South Africa's dried sausage: seasoned minced meat in narrow casings, dried until it can be eaten without cooking, which makes it a far more demanding product than fresh boerewors.

Beef salted heavily and dried into a strongly preserved ingredient that is desalted before it is cooked in stews; a Brazilian form of salt-dried meat that keeps far longer than the lightly salted carne-de-sol.
Carne-de-sol
Beef given limited salt and partial surface drying, a short-keeping Brazilian meat that is much less durable than fully dried charque and is treated as a cold-chain product.
Elevated risk
