FYI. WHEN CHOOSING JALAPEÑOS. the lighter color of green and the rounder the tips the milder the heat. The darker the green to having blackish areas and pointy tips the hotter the pepper. Just a little information for those who don’t know how to chose a jalapeño to meet their spice requirements. Love watching your do all this work. I no longer have the ability to do this so it’s nice to watch someone else doing it.

[@caffeinatedengineer7993]

Hey Becky! I wanted to let you know that there's actually a scientific reason for pre-soaking your beans before you can them. When you can dry beans like that you do not have a guarantee that the heat has reached the center of the bean for the entire "kill time" because the bean is rehydrating as it's being processed. So, if you pre-soak your beans, then you do not have that worry. It's your kitchen, your rules. But I figured more information is better than less information.

Pro tip: anytime you're using fresh citrus, use the zest too. Even in marinades. Don't let all that flavor go to the bin or compost. You can also through whatever fruit you're using in the bag as it marinates. But only if you're doing the marinade that day, I wouldn't freeze the fruit.

Is this considered rebel canning since the beans aren't cooked first and there is bacon in it? No judgement... honest question. I have found a lot of mixed info on canning with bacon or ham. It's confusing for a beginner canner.

Yes this is not an approved method of canning. I’m surprised she didn’t mention that, most people do because a lot of new canners

[@ElizabethLopez-ve6lq]

The good thing is that since you store your preserved beans with the lid but not the screw top cap, if there is any bacteria that produces botulism, it will produce gas which will pop your lid off. I’m a Microbiologist and was taught to always look at the lid of any canned food item. This also goes for those you purchase at the supermarket.

[@BloosSelfReliance]

Hey hun these look amazing. One little tip though. Sesame Oil is mostly used as a dressing at the end of cooking as its burn point is incredibly low and can leave a really nasty acrid bitter taste to a meal if cooked at high heat or for long amounts of time. Better to use a peanut oil or nut oil in a marinade and sprinkle sesame oil after the cooking process is done. It does look good though :) Great job :D

Hey Becky...I just watched another channel similar to yours and when she made her homemade vanilla she used the spent vanilla beans to make other things. She dried them overnight and then added them to cane sugar, made a simple syrup out of others and said she had made vanilla salt and ground them into a powder before also. Not sure what else but thought this was interesting for bakers and those who also make their own vanilla so as to not loose out on those expensive vanilla bean pods. Wish my grandma and mom would have known or made their own canned baked beans and written down their recipe for others in our family to have.

Becky, canning beans without pre-soaking is no longer an approved method by the USDA or NCHFP. The recipe you followed is likely older. Doesn't mean it's always dangerous, just no longer approved because newer methods have been proven more consistently safe.

Hi Becky I was wondering would it also be good to make ginger pucks like your garlic pucks or would that not work for these recipes 😊

[@siasgal62]

Ginger pucks are awesome for adding to marinades. I do it all of the time.

[@laurenmay437]

Absolutely cannot wait to try these recipes!!!!!

[@savannahroseblack]

Such a great idea for quick summer dinners!

[@Elisheba79]

Love these meal prep videos 🥰 Thanks Becky!🫶🏾

[@kjquezadaful]

I’m so inspired! I’ve made your freezer meals before and now I can’t wait to make these! Looks yummy!!❤

[@carolwhisenhunt7504]

One of your best yet! Amazing video Beckie. I loved it.

[@robynturner730]

I've made so many of your marinades, can't wait to try these!

[@lynsmith2698]

I just finished making a bunch of frozen crock pot meals and one of the. Was Mongolian Moose. We hardly ever have beef so just used some of our moose meat. It was so good. I loved the flavor of the ingredients in the recipe. Great video Becky.🇨🇦🌷

[@rosekisiel3383]

Becky would you consider doing a live pre-planned meal prep for a small fee. We could get a grocery list for the meal/s and be able to do the step by step with you. I would definitely do this and it would be the motivation I'd need to do the meal preps. Just a suggestion.

[@robinreneefrederick6598]

That is an awesome idea

[@dianecuthbertson2686]

Be a bigger fee for us outside Australia, why the need for a fee? Plus becky puts the links down below so we can then cook it, we could always rewatch the video and follow along, or just cook in our own time.

[@angelaguerin5175]

I’d pay a fee just to get the recipes to print without the ads. I just can’t figure it out.

[@dianecuthbertson2686]

@@angelaguerin5175 screen shot, crop, save and put together in PicCollage then print, easy 😊

[@crtnyp]

Ohhhh. I’ve been wanting to can baked beans as well. Yesssss

[@sherriekemper1828]

Time out to print these recipes--they all look so good!! Thank you!

[@100snyderm]

Yes! We call them minute steaks here on the East coast and it's one of my family's favorite quick dinners! You can use it so many different ways!

[@KT-yq7ed]

I remember calling the cut “Chip Steak”……

[@trishcuster3343]

I have been talking about canning backed beans, now I will have a recipe! I always feel inspired when watching. Love you channel! Keep up the good work. 💗

[@mrsjokersknight]

Random tip for the Mongolian beef. Add a little bit of cornstarch and baking soda (like two tsp of each) to your marinade and it will give your beef that delicious unctuous silky texture like you get at Asian restaurants. 💞💞💞

[@lorrainestone]

Becky I love it when you mix all these dishes.

[@crysbrannon]

You’ve just inspired me to go and make a batch of baked beans for the pressure canner. Thanks for showing just how easy but useful planning ahead can be!

[@ColleenH38]

Amazing meals! I made so many last week and now I need to make these as well.

[@terribunner1034]

Wow! Thank you! Can’t wait to try them all!

[@kimmieguidry]

Love watching you make your freezer meals, it gives me so many ideas

[@princessalways4eva]

A wonderful start to a Holiday weekend, an awesome video from Becky! I love when you do these freezer meal preparation videos. I’ve always loved to do batch cooking, especially when my 2 children were young and in school. It just made being a mom of 2 with an outside full time job easier on me. I’m all for making your life easier or run much smoother. I take my hat off to you. You embrace this mindset and execute it. I know everything in life is not perfect all of the time but you definitely have your ducks in a roll. It makes me so proud to see, especially since you bring us all in to see it being done. I wish there was such a thing as “smellovision”. Everything you make looks so yummy. Your facial expressions are golden. ❤️ They draw me in.😊 Great video. Hope you both enjoy those meals. Tfs. Have a great Memorial Day weekend.🤗

[@carolallen6219]

❤ thank you Becky for all you share with us and teach. Also, I was so happy to hear you include Ruth Ann in your video. I love how real she is and such a good teacher❤

[@candacecarlson3587]

Great show. Wish I could close those freezer bags.😊

[@mmc9828]

The make ahead freezer meals are some of my favorite videos!

[@MelSr8]

Watching these inspires and overwhelms me. I do want to do this but I’m a terrible meal planner and just don’t know how to start. Thank you for sharing your journey. ❤

[@artkeepsave7206]

I love your videos and I learn so much. I don’t know if you are aware, but this is a not tested recipe. I have done that too (not with this recipe) but we should be aware if we do it.

[@janofarc3928]

Oh how awesome! Thank you Becky!

[@vbo9872]

Yes! I really like the freezer meal videos. 🙂
