Tried canning meat...

[The Weazle]

Well, I saved the lower leg meat from mine and my dads elk to try canning it.  I made 4 pints this time, just to try it out.  I did 2 with 1/4 teaspoon of garlic, a tablespoon of olive oil, and a teaspoon of salt.  I did the other two with 1/4 teaspoon of hickory seasoning, a tablespoon of olive oil and a teaspoon of salt.  I did 10 lbs pressure for 75 minutes, after 10 minutes of steady steam.  How long should I wait to try it?

You already cooked it, now you just need to eat it. 

We have eaten the next day.

No waiting, try it now  ... not kidding

I look forward to hearing how it tastes.

You know you can put veggies in there as well, like peppers garlic cloves, and onions to add flavor.

I will start playing with recipes next time, if I like it.  I just did a small simple batch to see if I like it.  My old roommate back in my barracks days was from Newfoundland and his family would mail him a case of canned moose every year, and it was great!

Canned meat is great. I put a couple slices of onion, a t of salt, and a T or so of garlic in each quart with 1.25 pounds of meat. It is my wife's favorite way to eat game meat.

Btw, why did you add olive oil?

I'm hoping to try this sometime too.

Throw some Bacon in next time, once it is cool pop it open and enjoy. One of my favorites is to cook up some rice, open a jar of meat put it on top of the rice and dinner is served.

I've heard the jars are a PITA to clean, and I am hoping the oil will help with that, and add a little flavor...I love olive oil!

Let us know, yes the jars need to be scrubbed hard, but I don't have a dishwasher so I use softscrub with bleach.

Do you cook the bacon first, or just raw with the rest of the meat?  How much bacon per jar?
