I’ve canned beans over open fire also. I stuck each jar in a sock to prevent them from breaking. I thank JESUS for that experience & knowledge. But until I have to again, I will be using my pressure canner….lol. Love watching your channel. GOD bless you & your family!!!
Thank you so much! God bless you as well
Oh , nothing better than shelly beans, boiled new potatoes, and cornbread. Many a day I sat where your daughter was shelling the beans to go in the jars. Listening to the grown ups talk about all kinds of things :)
Thanks for sharing that Belinda. That is a great memory !
I sat in the kitchen listening to my mom, her sisters and her mother talkin while the women worked. As long as we were quiet, we could sit at the table or on the stool by the sink and watch. I learned a lot about all sorts of stuff. Many a summer meal was had of fresh produce from the garden. Beans, cornbread, taters, fresh corn, cole slaw, sliced maters and fried okree made a yummy meal!
So glad to watch you teaching your beautiful daughters to be self sufficient, its so important, im so glad my grandmother who lived through the depression taught me & my cousins , along with my father .
I taught my children also and now my oldest son along with me ( Noni ) are teaching them all the real life importants,
Gardening, cooking, sewing, and most important to be kind , caring young ladies,
These days I see so many younger parents , even mid age so worried about their own lives or images their children are spoiled rotten and have no respect even for their own parents let alone consequences for things they do .
I worry for my granddaughters but they are being brought up right and love church and helping others ,
God bless you Sir and for your great content .

Howdy Mrs Josette, I understand what you mean. It is so sad when children are not brought up correctly. It causes them so many problems in life. I am trying my best to teach my girls. I appreciate you sharing this with us. Thank you and God bless you ma’am. I’m glad you enjoy what we share.
I can't thank you enough for showing both types of canners. I have my grandmother's without a gauge. Thank you ❤️
Aw that’s great! Hope it helped!
KEEP THE VENT HOLE CLEAN! ❤️
Really liking the channel. Pimp daddy has not steered me wrong yet.
Glad to hear that James. The P.I.M.P. is #1 !
My granny would can green beans without a canner. She would string, snap, and wash them. Then you would take 1 heaping gallon of beans and cook in a brine of 1 quart of water, 1 cup of vinegar, 1/2 cup of sugar, and 1/4 cup of salt for 20 minutes. You pack the heated jars with the cooked beans and ladle the brine over the top to the shoulder of the jar. There will be just enough brine to cover 4 quart jars. Place a lid on them and set them on the counter like you do with your pickle recipe. To cook you would open the jar and pour off the brine, bring them to a boil with fresh water and pour that water off. You then cover with more fresh water and cook with side meat. Edit to add: she would measure the heaping gallon in a plastic gallon tea pitcher, heaped over the top.
Hi Justro, just wanted to share about how my mom said her mom would can green beans and other vegetables outside in a big "worsh tub" (I still say worsh rags😀) I think she said it was a #3 tub. She would use blue jeans to put around the jars to keep them from cracking. I'm canning 15 pint jars of green beans today cold packing and water bathing them. I'm thankful to God to have such pretty green beans this year. 🙌
That is wonderful Sara! My mama told me the same story about her mama. I enjoyed this. Thank you so much for sharing this with me. What area do you live in?
@@metcalfmills5679 I live in Raliegh county WV.
@metcalfmills5679 how do you water bath vegetables? How to know how long to boil & they are safe?
@metcalfmills5679 p.s. enjoy your video's!
I just subscribed to your channel. You and your subscribers are the genuine article. I've read many comments, which warmed my heart. I'm talking real people, unlike the America we live in today. Last year we did Leather Britches and enjoyed the process. It's what our ancestors "kin folk" did back in the day.
Well thank you so much! I appreciate everyone of my subscribers and I appreciate all the good things they share. Thank you for sharing and I hope it is a blessing
Our green beans were the best this year lol. I think I say it every year, but they do taste so much better homegrown and canned. Good stuff every time. Thank you for the video
Thanks for sharing and thank you for watching Mel !
Brother, this is such a great memory for me, use to can green beans with my granny during summers. last year i did leather britches with some for the first time. just to have the experience and say I've done it. 🙂
I am glad to hear that. Thank you for sharing.
I’m jealous! I didn’t get any green beans this year. I think it’s the crazy weather. I even replanted. I just grew compost.
Your little one cracked me up reacting to your bean up the nose story. 😁
I have only water bathed green beans, never pressure canned. Thank you for showing the different kinds of canners and that you use it on a glass cooktop with no issues. I just moved last summer and went from a gas stove to a glass top one. I have definitely had a learning curve adjusting to it!
Oh I hate to hear that . Someone else said that they had to buy theirs this year.
I hope this has helped in some way. I have went from electric to gas but I bet gas to electric is hard ! I love gas and use it often. Thanks Lea !
Around the table sharing stories and enjoying the task reminds me of my mawmaw's house. I miss those days. Mawmaw and Mama always told me to put towels over the jars right out of the canner too.
Thank you for sharing this !
@@metcalfmills5679 Thank you for sharing this video. I have subscribed and plan to watch more of your videos.
@@ampowell3536 thank you !!!
I had Blue Lake bush beans over took the space didnt expect them so big . Finally they died back now I see the eggplant it's still blooming. Oh new planting next year. God bless thank you
Thank you for sharing! God bless y’all also !
I love how relaxed your video is! I listened along with my earphones while I canned my own. You stated some important matters, along with a passion for preserving. Thanks 👍
Thank you Laura, glad you enjoy 🙂
Thank you for this video Justin, Linn says Hi to the little one that came here with you. Always a good thing to watch people doing things the way they have done it in the past.
And the finished cans are are so pretty as well.
Hope you enjoyed Glenn ! I will let her know.
I am thankful for the life that I have been blessed with. They sure do, it never gets old ! Will be in touch soon.
i just tuned into this video and I have green beans in the caner as I enjoy watching
Aw thank you!
Good very clear, straightforward, easy to understand instructions......thanks......Larry
Thanks Larry !
We always used dish towels and cardboard pieces between our jars out on the fire. I canned tomatoes like that 2 years ago to keep them from going bad on me.
Thank you for sharing this with us!
Thanks I have learned so much from you.
Thank you Billy. Glad I can share
Hey Justin-you’re doing a great job canning your beans-and having your sweet girls assist-and teach them along the way. May. I make a suggestion? I’ve learned this works really well. Pour a splash of white vinegar in the water in the canner. This will keep minerals from the water from adhering to your jars. Your beans look great!
Hey! Yes ! I do that most of the time. Just forgot it. Thank you so much for reminding me and sharing this!
Bud, I appreciate your time. I really do. Thanks
Glad I can share. Thank you for watching!
My beans in the garden didn't do very well so I bought enough to can for the year. Beans and carrots done. Down here in South Louisiana bugs and mildew are bad. All I have now is orka and cucumber. Blessings
Thanks for sharing Kristine. Good that you were able to find some. Thank you and Blessings to you also !
You know I'm going to be coming over for Sunday dinner and I expect we will be having a jar of those green beans just kidding sweetie I am impressed every video I watch impresses me more the world needs a lot more men like you real man to me you are awesome keep up the good work tell the girls I said hello may God grant you many blessings
Aww thank you so much! I hope I can help in some way. I will do it, thank you ❤️
Thank you for this. I remember watching Mama can beans, but I've never done it. I'm not afraid of trying it now. I need to invest in a canning pot.
I am glad to hear that. Thank you for sharing that with us and hope it goes good for you !
Canning intimidated me. Never have tried it, but I might now!
I am glad to hear that Diana ! Hope this helps !
Excellent stuff brother!
Thanks PPF !!! Y’all would know about that.
My grandmother was born in 1918. I can remember her water bath canning in 1988 in a number 3 was tub. She just set the tub on concrete blocks, and built a fire under it. Worked great, but I can’t remember why she did it like that. Maybe to keep the heat out of the house that year.
Thanks for sharing Toni❤️
Thank you.. I like the simple directions you give. Have a good day.- Melanie
Thank you for the feed back Melanie ! Hope you enjoy.
Thank you! Great video for a newbie like me
I hope it helps
1:43 - That seems to be standard in Japan - after a rain, it often doesn't help at all. Random things die - the more rain the more things just die or get sick. Makes you wonder.
It's weird because in Australia where I'm from rain is still a blessing for gardeners. But in Japan where I live now, it's often a curse.
Howdy Caleb, thank you for sharing this with us. Very interesting. And thanks for watching!
I'm enjoying your channel and all that you share. Thank you. Could you let me know which type of half runner beans you are growing and a seed supply source that would ship to Canada please.
Putting a towel over them holds the heat in when you want them to cool off is what I have always been told .
Yes they cool slower. Has always worked real good for us.
Much appreciated 💕
Thanks Audrey !
Good job
Howdy Linda, thank you!
Them Girls Are Precious Blessings From The LORD
For sure! I am so thankful
A story my Step Dad would have told, the bean and the nose.
Yep
Thanks!
Thank you
My beans made flowers but no beans…until yesterday. Now I have beans about an inch long. Strange season.
Wow that is strange Angela. Hope they make !
Thank you for showing the weighted canner :)
You’re welcome
I thought you had to let cooker vent 10 minutes before you put weight on
We never do
When making the leather britches, what kind of bean do you use or does it matter? my gran used what she called Octobers but it don't know what those actually are.
I remember my mamaws green beans having sort of fat back but not sure if she canned her beans with the fat or after she canned when cooking them. Ever hear of canning green beans with fat back or ham?
No I have not. We always season when we eat em. Thank you
@@metcalfmills5679 thank you my friend
It could definitely be done. Thank you!
yes it can be canned with either one !
@@wandaduckworth1357 thank you Wanda. I'm pretty sure my mamaws green beans were canned with fat. They were so good!
Great video! I've not seen anyone covering the jars as they are cooling. Why is this?
Thats how Mama did it and always had good results so thats why I do it. Thank you!
@metcalfmills5679, I'm thinking that the towel keeps the temperature more consistent, as the jars are cooling down. This ensures a proper seal. I'm going with your Momma on that one. We live in the mountains of western North Carolina. We could even be neighbors!
Thank you for sharing this with us. I think that is the reason as well. Thank you! 🙂
Hello Justin,I was canning some half runners .i didnt use my old canner I was taught on and i was taught to can on gas but this time i tried using a glass top stove and a different canner my beans they did seal but there bent can you tell me what i did wrong ?
There are a lot of possibilities. Rings too tight or heating too fats or cooling too fast. May be more causes. I would treat them as if they didn’t seal or you might loose them later on.
Justin I see that you have two different types of canners which type of canner do you like the best? The one with the gauge and and weights or the one just with the weights? Just a beginner trying to get ready for next year. And I come from the center of Kentucky thank you for making things so easy
Howdy Pamela, I like the jiggler type canners. I didn’t use in in this video but will show them in the future. I have a few different ones. Thank you!
Thank you again🙃🤗😋
There is nothing like homegrown have half runner beans and home-canned for the winter
No there is not! 🙂
What kind of bean did you grow? The variety of string bean
Half Runners and Greasy
Hi there I'm new to canning and I noticed that you don't d bubble your jars and you don't wipe your rims I don't know if that is a necessary step or not
Howdy and thank you. I usually just knock them a little with my hand and most of the time I wipe them off, that is always a good practice. These turned out good as always. Thank you for the good questions!
great job but why arent you wipping off the the jars
When?
Do you remove the air bubbles and vent?? Thanks for the video!
When?
You don't bubble the jars before you put the lid on?
Nope
Hi , I saw a lot of video ppl taking out the ring off the lid , cause they say this way u are sure that the vaccum was properly done. when the lid is keeping by itself with no help from the ring. Care to elaborate on that? Also ppl blanching the beans before , or just putting boiling water to fill the jars. Your take on that?
I never did remove the ring until this year. It invites rust to form if there is any moisture present in storage. When I put them on to go in the canner I just snug them up and a lot of times when they come out of the canner the ring is loose. I think it is fine to remove. We have always cold packed and are happy with that method. Thank you!
My ex husband had a cousin that stuck a green bean up his nose and didn't tell anybody. He was mentally and physically handicapped, his mom noticed his breath was putrid and just town smelling and she took him to the Dr and found the bean🤮
What a story!
Can i do same thing with pinto beans if i dont want to dry them? And they grow so fast hard to catch them young. Thanks in advance good sir
I have heard of people doing it..
@@metcalfmills5679 thanks very much for the quick response! Have a great day!
@@thehoodbilly6841 thank you and you too!
Jethro you are a nice mamaw 😁
I’m sorry there is nobody here by that name
Do you take the rings off the jars when you store the beans?
Sometimes, If I need to use them on something else
Well, I still ain't made it through all you videos but I'm a tryin. Why didn't you vent the canner for 10 min? You need to expell that air so the canner works properly and doesn't stress the canner. You're over a 1,000 above sea level where you live and that means your gotta add 1 lb. Pressure for every 1,000 ft over sea level. Check with google for your city/zip code and find out your elevation. I believe you are over 2,000 ft elevation and that means you should be canning at 12 lb. Pressure. Check your canner manual for higher elevation info. You can find manuals online at presto in a PDF file if you lost yours. Your other jiggler weight should be at 15 lb cause you're at higher elevation. You should also take your lid to the extension office and let them test the gauge every year or so. Most people don't know that. If the gauge gets too outta whack it's time to replace it. Mine is nearly 40 yrs old and it's outta whack more than a couple pounds so I had to finally replace it. My mom canned beans for hours in a water bath when I was young. It's a wonder we all survived cause that was bad science. You have to have the pressure to prevent the botulinum spores from producing toxins. Since your beans ain't made ya sick, it means ya ain't had no botulinum spores in your jars. One day they might and you'll be glad you canned at higher pressure. Been nice watchin yer videos.
I don’t understand what you are referring to?
Thank you for sharing this info!
Glad that you enjoy.
Yes
Can you do this in a saucepan instead of a canner? I don't have a canner.
Get you a canner
Water bath three hours
I thought you were supposed to vent steam for 10 minutes before you put the weight on.
Never heard of that? Do you know why you would do that ?
@@metcalfmills5679 Air is trapped in the closed canner during the process. Air trapped in a pressure canner lowers the temperature obtained for a given pressure (for example, 10 or 15 pounds pressure) and results in underprocessing. To be safe, USDA recommends that all pressure canners must be vented 10 minutes before they are pressurized.
To vent a canner, leave the vent pipe (steam vent) uncovered (or manually open the petcock on some older models) after you fill the canner and lock the canner lid in place. Heat the canner on high until the water boils and generates steam that can be seen escaping through the open vent pipe or petcock. When a visible funnel-shape of steam is continuously escaping the canner, set a timer for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes of continuous steam, you can close the petcock or place the counterweight or weighted gauge over the vent pipe to begin pressurizing the canner. (See steps 3 and 4 below.)
USDA
nchfp.uga.edu/publications/uga/using_press_canners.html
Instructions for my all american canner says to exhaust (vent) steam for 7 minutes. i always do 10 to be extra safe.
Presto pressue canner instructions say to exhaust air for 10 minutes. www.gopresto.com/uploads/01755.pdf page 5 step 8
It's probably overkill and it does add a good bit of time to the canning process but that's how I learned to do it.
I share from my experience, not from something I read. I feel it is proofed more that way. To my knowledge we have never done it that way, and have never had a problem.
I thank you for sharing this with us.
I would think you would have to be careful with water levels and overcooking using this method, but I may be off. Also I think this would be an added step for those with little experience, to prevent anything loose from stopping up the steam port. Thanks again for sharing.
Justin, you must vent a steady stream of steam, for 10 min.
It's part of the whe canning time, for safety. Qts are 25 min.
You look like Ryan Reynolds
Don’t know him
How long will it take to water bath green beans
I am not experienced enough to answer that
3 hours
You don't debubble?
Just smack em a little
I hate those pressure caners. My mother would leave me in the kitchen with ours while she ran outside. Never had one blow.
You watched it!
@@metcalfmills5679 Yes, for several hours. We had a big garden.
@@harrythewoollyman thank you
Geo engineering is what happened to your food crops. Im in Western Australia and the constant geo engineering here is remarkable, the season totally topsy turvy, and i see it killing two birds with one stone. Convinces the stupid " climate change" really is a thing,(cos they're interfering with it) and total disruption of regular food crops. e.g. my watermelon crop may not be successful, not hot enough as usual this time of year. Ppl need to wakeup to whats happening globally. God bless
Pure evil
You need to read you’re canner instructions!
Why do you say that? Been doing it over 20 years the same way, and my elders before me..
you drop the weight on after its vented for 10 minutes.
I’ve heard that but I never do
Why do you wrap your jars of green beans after you remove the from the pressure cooker?
Mama always did and she always had near perfect results.
I think the slower they cool the better it is
Do you not blanch them? Lawd
You do???
@@metcalfmills5679 haha
PLEASE please turn down the back ground music can't hardly hear yah
Howdy Adam, thank you for sharing this with me. Feedback I need.
Howdy Adam, this was when I had help editing. Please let me know in current videos how the levels are. Thank you!
Water bath taste better
If mine tasted any better I couldn’t stand it 😬
