It truly is a HUGE BLESSING to be able to have home canned items on the shelves to help with quick meals, send to college kids/family/friends!! My 8yr old grandson LOVES to come to Grammie’s house for “Grammie made food ’cause it’s way better than store food!” I also love having room in my freezer for meats that I get on sale and until I am able to get them cooked and into canning jars! 🙂

❤ your ideas and I plan on obtaining some of those things!

You can cut it up into a bit larger than bite size chunks and pressure can it raw, adding 1/2 teaspoon of salt to a pint or 1 teaspoon of salt to a qt (salt isn’t required but it does enhance the flavor of the meat). Know that if you can meat raw it will stick together in the jar! We often season/oven roast or cook it on our outdoor rotisserie meat and then cube/can it WITHOUT adding liquid (our choice). Another thing that we do is can beef or pork chunks (usually pork loin ’cause it’s cheaper here) with Beef Better Than Bullion and then when we want stroganoff we open a jar, heat the meat and add it to cooked noodles w/sour cream. We have canned smoked pork butt that my son smokes but we get the meat before he adds bbq sauce to it ’cause we’ve found that the bbq sauce scorches when it’s in the canner for the required amount of time for meat. We just add the sauce/heat before serving.

We LOVE having canned meat on the shelf and keeping freezer space available for when we get a great deal on something and don’t have time to can it right away!! ENJOY canning everything that you can get your hands on!! 🙂

My son says “Mom, God’s not making any more land so we’re holding onto what we have. 3 of our farms are paid for, for which we’re very grateful!!

[Stitchinglady]

I totally agree!!

We feel the same way about keeping metals.

Since there are only 2 of us at home now we can our meats primarily in pints, which is still generally a pound of meat. We cook/drain the ground beef without seasoning so we can flavor it for the meal when we use the canned ground beef, then pack it into pint jars and pressure can for 75 minutes. It’s great to have on the shelf to help make quick meals (tacos, hamburger potato casserole, ground beef stroganoff, enchiladas, add to chili, etc). I think that you’ll truly enjoy having canned ground beef on the shelf!!

Please share your recipe for the Asian Chicken, if you’re willing and have time! TIA!!!
