A tip when you run across meat sales. We found a deal on pork roasts, so bought two packages to can in our pressure canner for future use. Ended up with 19 pints from 18 lbs of meat. It'll come in handy when the SHTF.

It's so nice to see others trying things like this. I'm new to meat canning, so it helps when we see our pressure canners being used in every way possible. I start mine this Wednesday, and I sure hope I find sales as good as yours!

Keep your eyes open! We stumble across this deal and couldn't resist. Last fall was our first time canning meat...we raise our own turkeys...and canned 4 or 5 of them, the rest we froze. One is always a little hesitant the first time around. My wife always wanted a pressure canner/cooker, but it was me who held back....boy was I crazy....I love it more than she does!

That's a great find. Canned pork goes great with canned applesauce!

It sure is. I had one jar that didn't seal, so we had it last night for supper...made pork gravy, had it over baked potatoes.....made a darn good meal!

99 cents.... WOW! Great find!

Got lucky! lol. Doesn't happen to often.

@n2wds I love canning too, and I can't wait to finally try my hand at meat. I've seen a few really good sales lately, and they have been FEW in the past year, so my eyes are open all the time now. My friend even cans those 5 lb bags of frozen chicken breasts when they have a really good sale!
