Canning Chicken


I don’t know about you, but this chicken reminds me of science class and the old ‘pig in a jar.’
I have taken to canning my meat because if we were ever to lose power I would lose my freezer contents….that is a lot of food people!
I found this chicken on sale and Safeway +50% off! it ended up being $1.50 a pound for boneless skinless breast.


I had help!
Tommy’s GF had never canned before…here they are just adding hot water to the jars. Within an inch of the top. You could also add broth if you wanted to.


Loading up the pressure canner. I had 2 sizes of jars so had to do 2 rounds…oy, it was loud all.day.long


I have recently started to store without the rings. It helps to know if the seal has been broken……don’t want the jar to reseal itself.

70 minutes at 15 lbs for us…over 1000 feet above sea level. It varies, so you want to read the book for your elevation.

    Home canned meat must taste different than store bought. I should think. Thanks for stopping by!
