You know I love my shelf-stable meat! Especially when we raised it ourselves. But you can do it too with store-bought meats.

    I'm 67 and remember the old days still canning meat in a water bath canner and I don't remember for how long but it was a long time. I know that's no longer safe and I like that you are showing people the proper way to do things. I also like my pressure canner and the fact that you don't have to cook things four and a half hours in a water bath anymore. Bless you for everything you do

    I know this video was ground sausage but tomorrow I will be canning my first ground meat (ground beef). My forjar lids just came in the mail today. I'm using new ball jars tomorrow but switching out the ball lids for forjar to test them out. I'm nervous and excited!

    I canned 16 1/5 pints of chicken tonight then ground, browned, and canned 9 pints of pork, unseasoned. I found a recipe for breakfast sausage seasoning that is amazing and I'll add it if I'm making sausage gravy & biscuits but I can use the pork for sloppy Joe's or anything else without having it seasoned already. And there is no concern about making the herbs bitter in the canning process.

    Love this video, as always! Thank you for the attention to detail. I've watched tons of videos about canning but your channel is by far one of my favorites. You have me confidence to start building my shelf storage, which is now an obsessive habit that confuses my husband sometimes 🤣🤷. I have a great supply built up and it's incredibly reassuring in these crazy times! I recently did a big batch of spaghetti sauce, which the husband loves. Question 1: Have you ever canned spaghetti sauce? Question /thought 2: I use an electric Presto canner – blasphemy, I know. But this is a safe space so I can confess my sins, right? Have you ever used one? What are your thoughts? I would be interested to see you try one out! I really like mine and have done a lot of research along the way to make sure I'm canning safely. Unfortunately, there's not a lot of demo videos on this kind of canner. I'd be more than happy to walk you through the basics. Last thought: I'm surprised you don't use a meat smasher to break up your ground meat. Literally Google/Amazon "meat smasher" if you don't know what I'm talking about. I prefer the one with three "blades" instead of 4-5. Perhaps you don't know about it, perhaps you don't prefer it, but I thought I'd bring it up in case it's the former. Thanks again for all you do!
