Canning Ground Beef Using 3 Canners

[@junielaine4211]

Happy for your retirement and look forward to more of your wonderful educational videos. I’m 76 and never too old to learn and I have learned so much from your videos. Thanks to you both!

[@dalegaa4094]

I'm 75 and watch and learn regularly.

[@Patty-bs3bz]

Boy was this helpful today. ❤ I followed your directions with my Carey/Nesco canner. Made 5 pints of canned hamburger for this winter.

[@RoseRedHomestead]

That sounds great! Let us know more about your canning experiences. JIm

[@dravonwalker2352]

I just had a Duh moment- thank you. The first batch of hamburger I canned was so bland that even mixed in other foods it was bland. The next batch canned has onions, peppers, garlic, salt in it. Better, but still a little bland. Now I see you using not plain water in the cans. I think that will solve the problem of bland. Thank you!

[@cbass2755]

I love ground hamburger canned up. It doesn’t taste any different to me one bit. I add onions (if I didn’t can it up) and nobody knows the difference. It’s wonderful. I canned up every bit of meat, poultry & veggies in my home yesterday. It was an entire day…7am to 8:30pm when I put the last dish away. Whew, it was a job, but a relief to know if I loose power, I don’t have to worry about that.

[@pbandjcamp]

A year later, I rewatched your video, and used my Presto electric canner for the first time. I just finished 7 pints of ground beef. So exciting and not hard at all. Can't wait to start on more food prep. Thanks again for your awesome videos.

[@dianeanderson8933]

Thank you Pam! I've finally at 72 years old, pressure canned chicken and roast beef! So watching you can ground beef, makes me want to get my pressure canner back down and can some!! You always explain everything so well. ❤️ Merry Christmas to you and your hubby, and have a healthy and safe New Year.

[@billduck846]

Absolutely 🙌🏽 marry Christmas to you and the rest of your family, please tell how is your day going so far.

[@grammajean1327]

This took a lot of time. Thank you for instructing how each canner works.

[@jocelynrobertson6387]

Congratulations as you enter this new season of life. When my husband passed away during covid you helped me navigate my new season. First I bought a dehydrator and kept it going almost constantly for months. Next was a waterbath canner, and now I asked Santa for a Carey pressure canner. I'm so excited to start on projects in the new year. Thanks for all you and Jim do for us all.

[@firequeen2194]

So sorry about your hubby. I also started dehydrating during the pandemic, then got the electric canner Pam recommended for pints which is amazing. I’m pretty sure Santa (also known as Mom) got me the Presto electric canner that will do quarts. I’m thrilled. I wish you health and peace in the new year.

[@darlenemassey6161]

I have the Carey pressure canner and I absolutely love it. I pressure canned water, actually distilled water to get the hang of it. There is a youtube video on it sponsored by Nesco (they bought the Carey name). And I used the guidelines for sterilizing distilled water from the National Center for Food Preservation. I thought it would be good to have some pints of sterile water for emergencies. And it gave me the confidence to actually can food. Good luck.

[@carriecreates1207]

Very sorry for your loss. I am sure it is hard, especially during the Christmas Season. I too bought the Carey Canner. I have used it about 10 times. I love it!!! I have a glass top stove, so I was always nervous using my Presto Canner on it for 90 minutes with all of that weight. I love the Carey and was happy to see Pam use it (Clone) during her video.!!

[@mariewheeler5626]

@@firequeen2194 I have a Presto quarts pressure canner and I can do pint jars too. You'll have to purchase a rank to do pints. I love my Presto.

[@candyfromtexas6855]

I canned hamburger meat using my new Nesco canner and instructions from your previous videos. I love it! Makes meals so simple! 😋 I add onion to mine since I add onion to everything...Going to make more adding bell pepper with the onion. This is a life and time saver. And it frees up my freezer. AWESOME! Thank you Pam and Jim for all you do! 😍

After researching online and watching your videos I chose a Nesco/Carey canner and it has been wonderful. Shelf stable proteins are the number one thing I preserve.

You have given me more confidence and knowledge over this past year and I value your videos that are packed with instruction. Thank you and Merry Christmas to you and your family 💕

[@rlynnmiller5485]

Canning meat is so economical when pairing canning with a good sale. Ground chuck was on sale for $2.49 lb. That is the only time I buy it. I buy as much as I can afford come home and can it up. Be patient, everything goes on sale at some point. This video shows how easy it is. Thanks Pam!

Congratulations! Sleeping late, what joy! What is even better is when you don't need to sleep late anymore. I don't use an alarm clock, but I still wake up around 7 each morning. In the summer, when the sun rises earlier, I wake earlier. In the winter, as now, I feel so deliciously wicked when I sleep until 7:30! Thank you for another informative video.

Dear Pam, congratulations on your retirement! I am just starting this video and have to respond to you saying you have ideas to how to make your channel more useful - I’m not sure that’s possible as you are my go-to for just about anything in the kitchen or storing. THANK YOU! I am excited to learn about the hamburger as I don’t care for it either (I haven’t compared it to dog food). So, I’m watching while canning chicken soup on this blustery day. Enjoy retirement!

[@pamelafailen189]

[@TizianaTina]

I love my Nesco canner. I had no worries about buying it after watching your testing video and was able to pressure can all my gardens bounty this season. Congratulations on your well deserved retirement.

[@katie27320]

Same here. I kept hearing people saying it was unsafe and unapproved. Until her video, I didn't realize they don't approve any brand of stove top canner either. The safety tests Pam did on the Nesco made me feel completely confident in using it. I have a stovetop canner, but my daughter, 2 year old granddaughter live together. When my daughter is at work, I am not able to sit and constantly monitor my stovetop canner. The Nesco has been a lifesaver and has eliminated a lot of my very late night canning sessions!

[@teresecox4109]

I asked the question in one of my Facebook groups about the off-putting smell we seem to have from all our canned meat. To us, it smells just like dog or cat food. This is true whether its beef, chicken, pork or any kind. Feedback was that others agreed, experiencing the same. However, we all agreed that once we cook it into our recipe, that off putting smell goes away and doesn’t really transfer to taste. I just wonder why nobody ever mentions this. I’m sure if this was mentioned, more people would continue to canning meats as a wonderful convenience. Congratulations on retirement!! Yay!!🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@MrJasonwoodrow]

I had that reaction especially with chicken (what some channels call "ugly chicken"). It was awful, and like you describe had a pet food odor and taste. I didn't try to do anything with it, but I also didn't throw it away. I'll try adding it to a basic dish and see if I can use it. I canned hamburger over a year ago and need to give it a taste test again. I did stew meat in spicy broth and that was a lot better tasting.

[@mariewheeler5626]

I brown all meats that I pressure can. I don't smell any nasty odors. Try browning before placing into your pressure canner.

[@mburton2402]

You commented in this video about not knowing the cost of something you canned a year ago. I was watching another channel and the person canning writes the price/cost of what she cans on the lid so she can compare price changes. Thought that was a great idea.

[@claudettemonty4077]

In Quebec we eat the Shepherd Pie (ground beef, corn cream and mashed potatoes) .Sunday, my granddaughter want to eat that recipe for supper and it was 4:30 pm!!

Congratulations on your retirement! My hubby and I are now both officially retired and loving it. The only trouble is that there just isn't enough time in each day to do all we want to do. My retirement gift to myself was the Presto 23-Qt model like your's (but with an induction bottom). My first pressure canner this last summer was the Carey, bought on your recommendation because the presto looked so intimidating and scary. But now I LOVE it! (Still love the Carey too but the Presto does so so many jars.) Today, I had both of them on the go canning potatoes. I just can't stop canning! You've created a monster with an ever-growing "cantry". (A very safe, reliable cantry!) Thank you for all you do.

Congratulations on your retirement 👏 I Love my Nesco electric pressure canner!! I bought it through your link in the spring. There was a learning curve, because I'd never pressure canned until this year. Thanks to your excellent videos, I was able to learn.

More canning adventures ahead!

Congratulations! I retired 5 years ago so I could grow an organic garden and have a dog. My dog has since passed, but gardening has given me new purpose in life. I have totally distressed, got into canning, and prepping for emergencies. A year ago, I canned some organic ground beef (first time) that was on sale. I just used it recently for taco salad... it was fabulous to have it available for a quick meal when I couldn't get to the store. Some of my jars siphoned or didn't seal properly, so I put old socks around them and stuck them in the freezer. I had big issues canning chili, too. Not sure if it was the lids or some other cause.
