Beans and rice are both great staples and it makes sense to store them if you have the room. However, saying that they're more protein than beef is absurdly wrong.
A dehydrator is another good option for preserving perishables. The shelf life is a bit shorter than most people would think, but properly packed and sealed you can get at least 3 months or so.
A freeze drier will preserve perishables for significantly longer than a dehydrator, but they cost an order of magnitude more. If you have a big garden or something though the three grand outlay might be worth it.

Rice and beans are tremendously more protein than meat... per dollar, which is what we care about, right? Also, they keep longer, also they are more nutritious.
