    I had a proud moment this morning while watching this video with my daughter. She said "look mom , she cans just like you do!" ❤ I was so proud she associates me with that skill. I did have to fess up and tell her I actually learned it from you 😂. Thank you for continuing to teach these skills so I can learn and then teach my kids.

    In both 2021 and 2022 I took advantage of the deep discounts on whole turkeys prior to Thanksgiving. I roasted them to *almost* done, stripped all the meat, and put the carcass back into the roaster with dehydrated veggies, herbs, and seasonings to make bone broth. The meat was then canned w/ the broth and the remaining broth canned for future soups. Such a great investment!

    I’ve been canning meat for years and we absolutely love it. It’s protected from a grid down emergency. It’s cost effective (not paying for electricity to store it months on end) and my fav is convenience. Ready when we are. Love it!

    For 2 years I've been canning ground beef as well as chunk beef, diced chicken breast and whole thighs, ground italian sausage and breakfast sausage patties. Useful for so many different things and canned in jars sized for portions in meals just for my wife and I. Frankly, at half-pint size for diced chicken breast (for salad) and the breakfast sausage patties (4 patties) it's a bit cumbersome, but works perfect for just 2 people to prevent waste.

    Just started canning a year or so ago. I love having food ready to go. Yes, it takes some time prepping the meat and canning it. But look at how much food (or how many meals) you made in that amount of time. It's awesome. I'm big on buying when things are on sale. Now I don't worry about freezer space anymore. Thanks gal...always good videos and good camera work. Jesus bless.

    I love your real life kitchen. Thanks for always being real! Most people’s kitchens look exactly like yours. If you are cooking, canning, and feeding people you have various things going on in your kitchen at once. I love to can my beef in many ways. One way is to add blended onion and cabbage. Then I dump it in a pot add a jar of my potatoes and carrots and heat up. Remove meat and veggies and thicken broth. Pot roast in 10-15 minutes. It’s great. Thanks for sharing your content!!

    I can chicken, pork, sausage, bacon, beef, and it’s so quick and easy to make many things. I load up on sales and can away. When I do ribs, I make them Asian inspired and different flavors. Also with chicken…I do curry spices, pho spices, Mexican spices, etc…
    I don’t precook my meat because they get extremely tender in the pressure canner.
    Today I’m cooking beef bone broth and I like to add mushrooms for extra umami. I can the mushrooms separately from the broth. ❤

    Husband and I grew up on working farms. I grew up in the Mississippi Delta. He grew up in the Midwest. We are older folks. His Mom did not preserve or can. My entire family grew food and preserved. We did not back then nor do I now, add salt to my canned meats. There are a couple of reasons: 1)Some folks can't have salt. 2)If I need to fix pet food, they need to have salt free. Our meats are always delicious and soooo tender from the pressure canning. No salt is just a personal preference. We love the convenience. I'm a nurse. After a shift, I'm looking for easy and fast. 👍

    When I was young when I would help grandpa do some work where we wouldn't return home for a day or so he would take jars of can meat, potatoes, carrots and an onion we would heat it up all together and we would have stew.

    Canning beef has become my favorite thing to can! I also brown the meat as well because it makes the finished product SO much better!!!!! Our favorite way to prepare is to melt 4 T butter in a skillet with 4 T flour. Stir until it is browned like the color of the broth in the jars of meat. Pour the broth from the jar into the pan, stirring constantly. May need to add a little water to get to a good gravy consistency. Add beef, simmer until warm and season to taste. Serve over rice or mashed potatoes. SO SO SO good!

    Totally agree Jill…we have been moving from freezing items to home canning them over this past year.
    We used to put up freezer, sweet corn, and we moved to canning sweet corn.
    We have also begun to home can our meats as well. We have pressure canned chicken, beef, pork, ham, ground beef, plus beef-stew, & ham and bean soup.
    They are all awesome !!!
    God bless you Jill for your amazing channel 😳 We love your family!!

    We canned deer meat last winter, it's great! Also, keeping freezers somewhere that stays cold in winter like an unheated shed or porch is the best option. We have one in a shed and one in the porch. They almost never run in winter. The one in the shed is a dinosaur, and needs replacing; it struggles in the summer somewhat but that's when we have less stuff in it. That one is our chicken and deer hide freezer (still have 4 hides to process from hunting season!).

    Have you tried using those 5 in 1 electric pressure cookers? I use them all the time to cook in. All you have to do is figure out what time duration to set for the high pressure cooking. They are more set and forget. You might have to adjust the time for your elevation and thing you are doing. There's no pressure adjustment on those.
    Not comfortable relying on those yet, maybe?

    I had purchased my reusable lids with gaskets using your coupon code. Scared to use them on everything but did try with 1/2 my canning that year. I also heard that the gaskets are not what they claimed and are in fact a one time use. I’m going back to the metal lids I’ve used in past. My question is, and I’m sure you have lots of them too, is what are you going to do with all your plastic reusable lids? Will you continue to buy their one time use ones? I’m so leary of trying any new brands anymore. I’ve been canning meat for years. Mostly venison and i raw pack it and no liquid added. It makes its own liquid as its canned.

    You waste so much space with those shelves for your canned goods, you could easily double the shelving and store more food. Depends on the weight the shelves will support. Mine support 3,000 pounds and I ordered double the shelves. Maybe you have loads of space, it's nice to conserve, buy shelving once to last for life.

    I boil my meat... eww you say, not so says I... Heard of boiled dinner, same... purposed to cut down on grease and increase longevity. You can leave in fridge overnight and 'pry' off the grease and cold pack, or straight up hot pack, done both. Use wide mouth... so much simpler and readily available as compared to regular nowadays. Buy out of season and use in season... You may need order out of season at your local hardware but a least they'll have them in warehouse. Once a novice and now fantasizing semipro... That first time with a pressure canner can be daunting and apprehensive...💥No you won't, it'll be okay. Just getting into cold packing raw meats.. 36 quart of chicken legs and wings done both, dug out of freezer and grocery markdown. Now, where's that beef...? Pork Bellies:👨‍🌾Take care

    No pressure canned. Sorry. Non US YTers can meat with teaspoon of vinegar in water bath for like 90mins, I think. Increased acidity. Also, a sliced onion...antibacterial properties maybe.
