My daughter, Jessica is cutting up chicken and her friend Crystal, is adding water to the canner. This is Cyrstal's first time canning. All the meat was on sale and was less than $2.00 per pound.
Cutting more Chicken.
Pack the chicken very tightly in the jars. We're using skinless, boneless, chicken breasts, here.
Packing more jars of Chicken. About 2 pounds of meat fits into each tightly packed jar.
Cutting up pork.
This is some really nice pork.
Pack all jars of meat really tight. We used a heavy plastic foot long ruler to pack the meat tight and get all the air bubbles out.
Time for the beef.
Cutting the beef into chunks.
Making some good progress.
We added 1 tsp. each of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Plus, added a touch of A-1 to the beef and a little Sweet Baby Rays BBQ sauce to the chicken and pork.
Add lids and bands and finger tighten after all your seasonings are added. Don't add any water or broth. The meat makes it's own gravy. Then process according to your canner instructions. I processed 90 minutes at 10 lb.s pressure.
Here's the first batch of beef. Mmmmmm. You can see the broth it made. All the flavor and nutrients are trapped right inside each jar. Wonderful!! For a quick and easy meal, make some mashed potatoes or biscuits, or noodles, and pour heated meat and broth over. Add a salad or coleslaw and you have a meal fit for a king. :)
Wow! Just look at all this delicious meat!
It sure makes a body feel good to sit back and look at the end product of all your labor.
