Preserving meat in jars

spinifex: If you want to see excellent amateur journalist footage of recent Florida hurricanes aftermath, look up Jonathan petramala channel on YouTube. His coverage better than anything commercial. Oct 11, 2024 17:13:59 GMT 10

At one time, I participated in a lot of home canning meat.. All raw pack cubes or smoked cubes.. We never did one chunk of meat in a jar, always cubes.. We also never packed it as tight as they did in the video.. Chicken, rabbit, goose, beef, pork, moose and bear all turned out well..

One thing I always wanted to try was canning bacon.. Cut bacon in lengths as tall as a wide mouth pint jar... Cut parchment paper the height of a wide mouth pint jar.. wrap, roll bacon slices in long parchment strips that will slide into the jar.. I believe the process will be to process like any cold pack, raw meat.. Best to look up specific directions for your area..

This topic caused a fracas with me years ago when I posted up about it. Have canned meat for 13 years with narry a problem, and it's more widely done in Australia than most people would think. And, I would use whole or half chickens/ducks, but beef was always cubed (only for convenience as it's then ready out of the jar tip straight in to a casserole pot). This process tenderises meat incredibly well, so tough old buzzards and hoof are perfect for this process instead of the waste pile or dog meat. Cheerio.

One winter in the far north a neighbor had an old rangy bull moose causing trouble and damage in there livestock feeding paddock.. When the problem was ...resolved... we helped process the results.. I can attest that pressure canned cold pack cubes produced a product quite tasty and easy to use in many ways.. Many times an animal like this is hard to use and not that tasty in a lot of ways.. I'm going to guess this old boy would be about like some say your scrub bulls are to use...
