    Im a 50± year canner, a little tip for you is when your making your jelly or jam, add a sliver of butter to help with the foaming, it make a much prettier product! Your doing awsome, you are like me canning, planting, harvesting and finally preserving all your hard work is so rewarding❤

      I’m nearly 80, Hubs almost 82, so there’s no way I could match what Becky does in a day, and I have no need or desire to. At our age, we know we are not long in this world so it makes no sense to buy or prepare a year’s worth of food to store, and that would wreck our budget besides. Three month’s worth of home canned or dehydrated food and freezer meals will handle emergency hospitalizations and hurricanes both. I’m nearly there now, and it took me six months to do it. Now we rotate it with freshly made meals to store as we eat what I made months ago. It is more than adequate for two elderly people. We almost never eat sweets, as Hubs is diabetic, so I no longer bake. Our caloric needs are half what they were when we were young. Tomorrow I will make a double batch of chicken salad to have some for dinner on a bed of baby greens, and the rest will be made into sandwiches that will go with us to the beach on Friday, because life in Florida is great! I won’t spend it all in the kitchen!

It was crazy, but now we have nice moist chicken ready to throw into salads, casseroles, sandwiches, etc. Love that you're canning chicken. I've never saved my peach peels for jelly.

    Just discovered your channel. Been binge watching.
    Canning tip: NEVER tip a canning jar to pour off the water. While some may have pinged, not all are sealed and you could end up scalded by boiling hot liquid. Lift them straight up and out to set down. Any water on top will evaporate in seconds.
    TIP: Always debubble your jars to release possible trapped air bubbles.

    I pressure can ground beef all the time and I’ve never added broth to mine. I don’t cook my ground beef all the way. I park cook the ground beef. I use the ground beef from our cows. I’ve been canning ground beef for years now and that’s how I always do it. No broth. We love canned ground beef. It saves freezer room. Especially when you have a family of 5 and 1 chest freezer.

    If you just brown your chunks of meat, beef or chicken, a little before you can you do have to add fluid but the meat holds together better when you open the can. Raw packed meat tends to shred when you use it. Just depends on the purpose of the meat. Thanks for the info on canning the ground beef, I have not tried that one yet!!

    Happy canning! All looks great! You don’t have to add broth to hamburger. It works with or without it. You should try canning soups and chili. Great meals in a jar. If you would have used a quart jar for the chicken and filled it half with chicken and half with veggies and top off with broth….instant chicken noodle soup base or chicken pie base. Cooked hamburger, broth, peppers make a good stuffed pepper base. Just add rice when heating. Hamburger rolled into meat balls, bake 10 minutes, put in jars with broth and can. Add meatballs to sauce or make broth into gravy. Great to make meatball subs. Try canning ham. It’s really good. I just use water as the liquid. So many things to make when canning meat. Have fun!
