Twilight, whatever do you do with that much liver?

Thank you for sharing that video Philbe!  She's got a lot of great info in that presentation.

When I asked Elizabeth Andress from Univ. of Georgia about canning liver, she said it was not safe to can. Something about the density of it. I wish I could remember what she said about it !

 

I taught a class yesterday at the Food Bank and the gals canned 29 quarts of applesauce. Only one had not sealed when I left yesterday.


I can, you can, too !

I found organic fresh turkeys on clearance for $5.00 each  and canned up three of them in broth.  I've also canned 14 pints of fresh local asparagus.

6 pints of seasoned ground beef.  I keep finding ground beef marked down, and my freezer is stuffed.  So, I'm spending this lovely 90 degree evening canning.  (I need to stay out of the store for a while)

Philbe envies you "canner experts"!  Gonna give it a try on veggies only, when our garden starts coming in. Don't have the nerve to can meat until I've learned how to can veggies!

Canning meat is sooooooo much easier than doing veggies. :)

Canned is right. Meat is so much easier. I used to think the same thing, Philbe until I canned meat the first time. I wish I hadn't waited so long.

Philbe - I agree with Nerd and Jeepers.  Meat is even easier to can than jam.  If you have a pressure canner and the latest Ball Blue Book, give it a try.  You CAN can!

Yes, I bought a brand new pressure canner about 3 weeks ago.  I bought an older used one last year, but probably need to buy a new gasket for it.  Anyway...being absolutely ignorant at canning, I felt perhaps a new canner would be safer for Philbe!  In my mind it just register that it would be easier to can meats that veggies etc.
