How do you can a turkey ?
Cut it up, raw pack it or precook it and run it through
the pressure caner, very easy to do!

Give it a pink slip and severance pay.
Must have a pressure canner. This assumes quart jars, cut the salt and pepper in half for pint jars.
Cut the raw meat from the bone, putting it into clean jars. Once full, add 1 tsp salt (adjust to taste) and 1/2 tsp pepper, fill with water or broth, put on lids/rings and pressure can according to your canner instructions. This is “raw pack”.
You can cook the turkey (like you would a chicken for soup), bone it, put the meat and broth into clean jars. If you seasoned the broth, you don’t need to add any spices to the jars. If you didn’t season the broth, add the 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp pepper to each jar. Add the lids/rings and pressure can according to your canner instructions.
The Ball Blue Book covers this, as do most “how-to” books that come with the canners.
