Canned 14 more quarts of meat.

This stuff is really amazing.  For those who don’t can meat, you should really give it a try.  My only regret is not buying a bigger canner.  This is a 30 quart and I should have gone with the 40 quart.

I did it for the first time this year too! Awesome way to cook and store. What you mixing with yours? I did prime rib seasoning with mine. Made a bunch of half pint jars, easy for packing to camp or as a single serve snack.

1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder.  Two of these quarts have 1.5 teaspoons of Montreal seasoning as a trial.  So far I like the salt and garlic the best. We always agh extra flavor depending on what we are cooking it with.  Shredded beef (deer) tacos, gravy pees carrots over rice or noodles, teriyaki etc..

How long should you keep canned meat?

[jrebel]

12-18 months

I do the hot pack method, season the meat before Browning and cover the meat with au jus. It takes a bit more time but that is what I prefer. This year I added three of four peeled pearl onions and a slice of jalapeno to each jar. I use wide mouth pints and it always turns out really good. Canning is my favorite way to use deer and elk shanks.

It doesn't last hardly any time around here, so we never found out how long it will keep!

[greenhead_killer]

My first 14 quarts lasted 3 months.

Can it last longer? I just found some goose that I canned...5 years ago? Gonna pop it open and give it a shot, but wonder if it is a lost cause.

I did this with venison, and while technically its still safe, the flavor and texture is shot.    So don't let them go past 12 months for best taste.
