Canning THE BEST Homemade Beef Stew | Meal in a Jar | Long Time Food Storage

[@jackijax505]

I've just watched a dozen beef stew canning videos and found yours. It's the best one out there! Simple & easy to understand. Thank you. Can't wait to make it.

[@TessCooks4u]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@stephenboyd4934]

Hi why don't you just cook a stew in a saucepan then stick the finished stew into jars, maybe like jam as the contents cools down a vacuum it's created. So it's fully cooked before it goes into a heated sterilised jar. I cannot see why you stick uncooked meat in a jar then cook it in the jars. As long as a vacuum is created surely both methods are OK.

[@ClutchFan]

Lots of these videos devolve into people talking about their personal life and a whole myriad of things that have nothing to do with the recipe. This video is great because it's clear, concise, and to the point. Going to be making this today.

[@motomyrtle]

Layering looks pretty but it's not an approved raw pack method. Or has an official decision changed on the subject?

[@motomyrtle]

​@@stephenboyd4934because the resulting product would likely kill you after eating. Botulism is deadly.

[@larrydevenney1008]

You do such a great job of explaining everything, simply and to the point.

[@gregoryfrolov2537]

Yes! This is done correctly. (Seasoned canning veteran) I'm always weary of online video's that show people canning things WRONG!, And those new to canning don't know that it's either going to poison, or kill them if they eat it.😮 PLEASE! If you're new to canning, and don't know how yet, please be careful as not everything you see online is true, or safe. This is.

[@kathygreer1]

Looks like a great recipe. I loved your video.

[@mallgrendevan]

My first time canning beef stew and this recipe is AMAZING! I added garlic, rosemary and thyme, and used beef broth instead of chicken. It turned out sooo good! Simple and easy to follow instructions with a beautiful end result. Thank you so much for this recipe, will definitely use again and check out your others!

[@onelittlemiracle241]

Canning meals in jars is my new favorite. I’ve always been an ingredient canner. But I’m loving this convenience on really busy days.

[@TessCooks4u]

Oh yes. My family was ill in November and the canned meals really really came in handy. Thanks for watching.

[@L85S87C90]

Thank you, Tess, for giving clear, step-by-step directions without extraneous talk or needless video. Because of your outstanding quality instruction, I subscribed to your channel. I look forward to learning a lot from you! Thanks so much!

[@MSGC55]

I love that you showed exactly what kind of meat you used and I love that you showed the price - I never know what kind of meat to buy at the store - just about everybody on KZbin just shows a bunch of meat and they cut it up and throw it in - thx for that - Cheers 🍁

[@ChristyDay7]

Thank you for sharing. My mother canned. I didn’t. My daughter wants to. This is the best video I have come across for meat canning.

[@phillipmercurio]

Tess I really enjoy watching your video show. Thank you.

[@brightpurpleviking]

Wow! Fascinating! I wish I had canning supplies. I sold them all when I moved cross country and I have regretted that many times.

[@MountainGardenGirl]

Great video, and finally simple pressure cooking put to great use.

[@sharmaynekoehler1488]

This is one of the BEST canning videos I have seen! Can’t wait to try this!

[@Mac.-ci5nu]

Very well spoken and clear dialogue. Will look out for more of your vidz...

[@lauraburt8113]

Thank you for taking the time to make this simple concise video!

[@watcherman65]

Chicken Broth for beef stew was new to me. . Thanks for the Video and Thumbs Up

[@eveyep432]

I love how you are very specific Thank you 😊 🙏 I have canned fruits and veggies but want to start meats

[@wemcal]

Great video and informative

[@karencattoor9917]

Win! Win! Win! I totally agree!! Thank you again. Another great video. Ordered my ForJar lids, too!❤

[@TessCooks4u]

Yay! Thank you!

[@Euroasiagazzette1212]

Loved this video and learned alot about preservation at home. Watching from Pakistan 🇵🇰

[@DconBlueZ]

Thanks for the video, always enjoy watching!

[@carollorenzano5411]

I always put the broth in first because it helps to push out the air .

[@ClutchFan]

Just finished making this. This was my first time using a pressure canner and this video was very easy to follow. What came out of the canner looks exactly like what you made. I do however smell the food in the air and I read that is due to siphoning. I followed the directions to a t and paid close attention to details. Not sure why that happened. The water in the canner is clear and all the liquid appears to be above the meat and vegetables. So I think I'm good.

[@MellowBunnies]

Thank you for this video! I just bought a Presto 23 quart canner and I'm excited to learn how to can soup!

[@TessCooks4u]

Thanks for watching. Canning is a lot of fun.

[@jaytracks]

I love these canning videos! Thank you tess

[@TessCooks4u]

Glad you like them!

[@KatieCooksandCrafts]

It looks great Tess! Future you will love you.

[@TessCooks4u]

Katie! I was just thinking of you the other day. Your children must be really getting older. Hope all is well. Take care and thanks for watching. Much Love.

[@janicedodds]

Oops...Looks like you forgot to put onions in your list of ingredients. Great recipe and great teaching! I love the step by step written instructions, Thank you.

[@beavisroadhog9629]

Onions turn into mush in a canner.

[@lucasellyson6872]

How long will a jar like this keep for if kept in a cool dark place? Thanks great video

[@earlofsandwich7884]

Forever or until you eat it 🤣

[@mckaylakazimierowski3347]

Thanks! 🎉

[@Forevertrue]

Thank You mam. That look good and nourishing.

[@jeffielou919]

I would like to try this. Thank you.

[@rosieokelly]

Outstanding as usual!!

[@notbextley6997]

I think I'll make this today. Thanks

[@Bee-Kind-Baker]

Thank you so much ❤

[@Fayette123]

This looks good

[@shawnpatterson6632]

The save button is disabled. Love the recipe though. Im new to canning and will be trying this. Thanks!

[@beavisroadhog9629]

No it's not.

[@lynnhuddleston3199]

Why use chicken broth, instead of beef broth? I’ve never tried this before, so I wasn’t sure. Thank you for posting!

[@yvettenazareth1879]

Chicken broth enhances the flavor of the beef

[@lasanimashelpinghands]

Can chicken bone broth be used?

[@melissap9416]

Great video!!!! Got to the point without all the yapping like other videos!!!

[@lukelucy1980]

Excellent Video & Class Thank YOU !! I had one issue when I tried mine, I have a 1930's cast iron stove, hard to regulate heat, I let the pressure stay up a little rather than lowering the temperature risking the pressure lowering, or too much temperature adjustment & fluctuation... My steam canner water turned to weak fatty broth. Seepage, Still enough broth in my jars to be considered safe. I'd love to Avoid this as much as possible. Would adding a bit less broth to each jar help ?

[@Moriarty18]

What do you think of the electric vacuum sealers? They go on top of the jar and supposedly create a seal? I'm 100% new to this all but fascinated and feel like I want to start doing this!

[@beavisroadhog9629]

"De-bubbling" is a complete waste of time. If pressure canning for 90 minutes doesn't work the bubbles to the top, nothing will. 90 minutes of processing will make any trapped bubble sterile, anyway. Also, what about the headspace- isn't that a big bubble? People get so wrapped around the axle with this. It is very revealing as to who has compulsive behavior issues over what they have been told vs being able to reason things out.

[@FutureTruckerJen101]

Genuine question. Potatoes for example, throw them in the jar, pack them down and then add water. By the time I debubble, i get to add another half ladel of water. If i didn’t I would be loosing space cause my headspace would be giant.

[@RPcropland]

I think if a bubble pops or sputters while cooking in such a way as to leave residue between contact it may not seal. While I bet the small ones arent likely the issue, this step still minimizes sputtering and the odd large air pocket going full boolk up in there.

[@derrickgordon5314]

What is the shelf life for this canned stew and do I store in the cabinet or refrigerator?

[@terriczmuchalek1015]

Thank you for a great video! Question- can the peels be left on the potatoes ?

[@robinholbrook8296]

No

[@asmaabarakat1150]

Thank u do. Much such a great recipe I just asking how long time can I store this canned beef,?

[@godsgift3302]

New sub,thanks for sharing.

[@melissakidder1578]

Do the vegetables come out mushy? I'm trying to decide if I want to do my meat an veggies separately and just mix when ready to heat.

[@jirikosek6383]

How long i need cooking this stew on classic pot ? Thank you.

[@ageoflistening]

Keep the lid on and occasionally add more liquid but for soft beef it needs at least an hour.

[@julieromero3436]

Interesting how the USDA took down the link you provided!

[@amandacasabella896]

Of the stew is already cooked , do I need to use the pressure cooker ? To preserve out the fridge?

[@TessCooks4u]

Yes, You need to pressure can. Heat the stew on the stove and fill your jars.. It will be a hot pack.. Check the USDA guidelines. Any time there is meat, cooked or uncooked, you need to pressure can to preserve safely..

[@watermanone7567]

Excellent Tess. Have you tried it with Beef Broth? Also I am looking for a recipe for dehydrating Shrimp. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks much.

[@TessCooks4u]

Yes, I have tried with beef broth. Its good but I like the chicken broth. I don't know about dehydrating shrimp. I have watched freeze drying recipes that include shrimp but I can't afford a $3k machine at this point.

[@lisaorrantia5296]

Can you use quarter size jars

[@caseymajor4803]

If you can can in an instapot it’s game on. I’m going to start canning 😂

[@gracehill7204]

You can only can in an InstaPot Max

[@robert4027]

I didn't see you add none iodized salt. ?? I usually add at least a half teaspoon 👍👍

[@cmag6581]

What is the shelf life of the canned stew

[@jamezxh]

Looks delicious. On another note , how expensive is meat getting ?!?!

[@TessCooks4u]

Very expensive. I expect prices to rise higher this winter. Thanks for watching.

[@chompchompfoods]

When I followed the recipe the liquid in the jar leaked out during the cooking process, but they all seemed to have sealed a-ok. Is that normal for some of the liquid to escape the jars or should I reprocess it?

[@TessCooks4u]

Sorry just saw this message. Yes, you can have some leakage and they will be fine if they have sealed. Just review your process. You may need to regulate the heat lower so there is not over boiling and also leave the jars rest in the canner for 15 minutes after taking the lid off. They may need some extra time to acclimate to the room temp. Thanks for watching.

[@pi2nuna219]

I'm canning pork n veggies via hot bath method using a towel at pots bottom, question, a video recently said she added 1 T of 9% vinegar, if using 5% add 2 T to each jar after food is ready to be canned. Is this necessary ?

[@Ray-h7x8e]

A t spoon of MSG will help the beef be tender.

[@jean-marcpharand4262]

why do you remove the rings

[@lovnbnhome]

Does the broth go in cold as well?

[@aN0nyMas]

she uses hot broth. cold is fine as it's going to heat up anyway.

[@christinespierling5952]

Can I do this with corned beef too?

[@earlofsandwich7884]

Yes but it may go mushy.

[@MyCampaignRules]

What if the water inside the can went down?

[@TessCooks4u]

Yes, it sometimes does. As long as it is not 1/2 of the jar and the lid sealed, you are ok. Thanks. for watching.

[@chelst.5878]

How long does food in canning last?

[@retrogrademars]

18 months max to be safe but theoretically it a cool dark place with a good seal they could last for years

[@scrane5500]

As someone with a family history of Cancer I worry a lot about BLV in meat--will canning kill the virus? Thanks for posting

[@aN0nyMas]

pressure cooking raises the temperature to about 150° celcius. this is double the recommended 72°celcius. so yes, it'll kill pretty much all bacteria and viruses.

[@christianpagliawan4988]

How long it last?

[@vden02]

If you use lids that do not state "up to 18 months" then they will ladt until you open it.

[@wjriii4073]

She said at one point to add the 'chicken' broth. This is beef stew. She meant 'beef' broth, right? Just checked the recipe, it definitely says chicken broth. I don't get it.

[@stabbyunicorn3243]

She said she likes to use chicken broth 😢 I also think browning the meat adds flavor

[@thedindon]

I was going to try this until she broke out the industrial grade pressure thingy 😅

[@tablettecd3250]

Pouvez-vous mettre transcription en français svp.merci

[@janetstokes1806]

why chicken broth not beef broth?

[@vden02]

You can use beef but the chicken allows all flavors to play well together.

[@mommymilestones]

How is this stew and not soup? Looks like soup in the jar. No thickener or gravy like Dinty Moore stew.

[@VonM.]

You can't add any flour or thickeners when canning. Add it later when u heat it up

[@beavisroadhog9629]

Dinty Moore is not stew. It's floor sweepings from the Hormel/Dial soap slaughterhouse floor.

[@RayMrRobert]

I don’t like seeing raw meat canned. At least brown it.
