Excellent tuturial. I had a friend in Colorado who used to can antelope, deer, and elk. Not the most appetizing to look at in a jar, but WOW is it good. And so quick and easy to fix, as you mention. Instant dinner anywhere. We took many jars with us across the country on our hunts.

BTKR what an excellent post. Canned elk w/gravy is one of my all time favorite meals. Also makes a great BBQ beef (elk) sandwich. Really so many things you can do with it. I canned 48 quart jars of elk last year and I'm down to 3. Still have a good amount of elk in the freezer but with only 3 jars left I gotta get an elk in late season archery. The one thing I find is to go light on the canning salt. If you pull a recipe off the internet I would suggest 1/2 the salt. I haven't done it before but I canned a half dozen jars of venison from by buck this year. Didn't want to do to many as I want to stay motivated to get that elk. :drool:

Canned meat for the first time this year, with my AK moose. Trimmed off all fat and easily-trimmed soft tissue, cut into chunks like yours, and canned with a dash of salt. Holy cow is that stuff good. Wife made some stew with a bunch of veggies, blended it in the blender, and we are feeding our 10-mo old and he LOVES it.
The meat is killer cold out of the jar on crackers or pilot bread. Makes great stew (quickly).
