How to can beef. I don't know about anyone else..but I started canning beef a few years ago. These are the instructions I used then..and now. I just thought maybe someone else out there was ready to take an active part in food preparation.

We have a very reliable source for our beef. I use this set of instuctions for canning it. I am spoiled now!! We are almost out and we will be canning again real soon.

Haven’t done any canning. Interesting. I tell you what, even on sale beef is so expensive I almost never eat it anymore. I try not to buy any meat over 2.99/lb.

Unfortunately our home is a little on the small side and i don’t know where the heck I’d store this stuff. The garage is out because it gets super hot in the summer.

Sigh.

I had some canned Deer meat a few years back, and it was delicious!

A beef? It’d take a big can, wouldn’t it ;-)

3) Put beef in can.
4) Eat (later).

Done tons of hot water bath canning but have never ventured into pressure canning. I think my mother’s fear of pressure cookers exploding tainted me.

Hi ... my name is Justadumbblonde and I’m a canning junkie. When chicken leg quarters go on sale for 39 cents a pound, I buy them 75-100 lbs. at a time. There is no comparison between store-bought canned chicken, and the beautiful pieces of meat you have when you do it yourself. Soup, casseroles, sandwiches, pot pies ...

That’s a great article. I plan on canning quite a few jars of meat in the not to distant future. If nothing else, that will allow me to buy at today’s prices and save money as food increases in price.

This is wonderful! Thanks for posting. What are some of your recipes that use canned beef? No, you don’t have to post the recipe, just general things you make with it. Thanks again.

For some reason, the link won’t open for me. Can you repost the link in here?

Thanks!
