Title: canning tuna tonight
Post by: brew on August 24, 2018, 09:42:43 PM: local fred meyer had fresh tuna loins at $5.99/ lb. wife went in and bought 25 lbs and had them trim it up--ended up with 23 1/2 lbs. i trimmed off the loins a little bit more today and put them in 1/2 pint jars...added a 1/2 tsp sea salt and a pinch of pepper to each jar, put in a touch of water to make about 1/2" of headspace and put them in the pressure cooker at 10 lbs for 100 minutes...working on the last batch now...53 1/2 pints takes a little time to process...ran out of beer once so the wife had to head up to the store to reboot. do luv me some homemade tuna...yummy

I was given 20 lps of Albacore a couple years ago from my sister in Newport, OR.
I smoked up about 10 lbs. Man I could not think of a better cheese and cracker combination as smoked albacore!
Matched with Cougar Gold (I know, sacrilege, but I love Cougar Gold) and a Ritz, my wife prefered Triscuits, the smoked albacore was amazing.

Tuna, would smoke up great!

I have a superintendent that used a similar recipe and it was awesome.
