The risks are of course related to infection developing in the meat and can be serious or deadly. From years of research from survival experts, historic methods, American Indian methods, hunters, and amateurs experience, it's clear to me (my opinion) the risk can be very low in almost all cases. Look up on the internet or read books on: potted meat, drying meat/fish, meat jerky, aging meat, and even burying meat. Smoking and/or salting methods are recommended and are good, but people have lived for generations without these methods. Nothing is guaranteed, so do your own research so you know how to do it. It is very possible and not particular diffficult, especially in longterm survival situations where other options are not possible.
