Hey Guest, it looks like you haven't made your first post yet. Until you make an introduction thread, the rest of the site is locked to posting. Why not take a few minutes to say hi!
My family has canned deer meat on the stove in a traditional canner for over 30 yrs...We learned from the amish in our area...Todays standards frown on the idea though..
Dutch, the people I know that do it put the bonless meat in the jar and some salt and put them in the cold packer or preasure cooker and fire the jars up with the lids loose. I don't know the times or tempratures. Someone here must can venison.
That is about the amount of time my sister does her's and she adds a little less salt.....
She makes sure she has an extra pot of water boiling so that if the pot with the jars goes below the top of the jars, she can add more water with out colling the boil off!
personally we chop up an onion, a tspoon of soy sauce a pinch of salt and a lil garlic then throw the cans in the pressure cooker no added water is nessecary...it is amazing though
I use a tablespoon of salt in quart jars and i dont add any water. I use a regular canner and leave them in for 3hrs. Just make sure the water level stays at the bottom of the rings. I've heard of people adding beef bullion cubes or onions to the jars but i have'nt tried that yet.......
i add - a splash of worchesthire, onions, garlic, salt,pepper, and a jalepeno in each jar. I always pressure cook - no liquid in jars - makes its own juice
Put chunks of meat in jars, I prefer the widemouth jars as they are easier to pack. 1 teaspoon of salt, a strip of bacon on top of meat, cold pack for 3 hours. good eating, been doing it for over 35 years.
It means to put jars in a kettle called a cold packer and bring them to a boil for a set period of time. When the jars cool down the lisd are sucked down by a vacume and sealed. The lid rings are then tightened.
