Making Muscadine Jelly

Homemade Muscadine Jelly

[@tonjawilson4806]

This Video may be 7 years old but it is the best one I've found. Me and the boyfriend bought 2 gallons of Muscadines last weekend to make jelly with. FIRST TIME JELLY MAKERS @ 60 & 50 years old, what an adventure 💕. We've got enough jelly for ourselves and for gifting/ trading. I know what some of y'all are getting for Christmas 🫐🤣

Thanks for watching!

[@cindybates8829]

Since my stroke I forget a lot.The video's helps me remember.thanks to you tube.

[@kellykibbeysmith7270]

Thanks for walking me through this, Wayne! It tastes great. I'm new to canning and all 5 of my jars popped. I'm absolutely thrilled!

[@lynnbradley7387]

Love your video I have watched so many and you guys are the only one that did it simple step-by-step love it made it a couple years ago and now I’m ready to make some more muscadine jelly and I forgotten and I found your video again yay watching you again making muscadine jelly right now thank you so much

[@cobaltmoonrose]

I wrote you a long heartfelt story of how your video was the very best I came across on making muscadine jelly. I also went on and on about how easy you made it look and how I have never canned a single thing in my life. Then my 18 month old hit the backpage button and it was all history lol. Love it! This morning armed with a bunch of wild muscadines I set out following your recipe. It went perfect! Easy peasy! I have now started my canning adventure and you helped me get off my rear and stop pondering it but actually doing it. My jelly came out fabulous! Very tasty and I now wonder what took me so long to get the nerve up. TYTYTY! I am now a humble subscriber.

[@starttofinishwithwayne3344]

LinnieRosa Thank you Linnie for sharing your story with me. I am happy you made the jelly and it turned out for you. My wife and I are on our last jar now, time to make more!

[@belindabakertheembelishedc4787]

Yummo! I haven't had any muscadine jelly in a long time. My Nannie used to make this and fig preserves. Last time I made grape jelly I had a reaction from the 'grape steam.' Looked like I had a horrible road rash on my hands, arms, neck and face. Wayne you are doing a great job. Mary you make a wonderful director. Thanks for sharing your videos.

Thanks for sharing your expertise! I bought a muscadine grape plant on the half dead rack for $3.00. 5 years later, I have tons of muscadines every year! I plan to make some jelly using your method! Thank you.

I have muscadine's growing in my trees and they are ripe, so I think I will make jelly. Thank you for the video. -Lisa from Texas

[@shanehicks5012]

Great video, bless you

[@HeatherPartee]

Mr Wayne thank you so much for sharing your video. I have watched for several years. Finally, I think I have mastered the recipe! But I will continue watching your video. It’s tradition now!!!!

[@starttofinishwithwayne3344]

@@HeatherPartee Thank you so much for sharing this great story! To me muscadine jelly is by far the best jelly! Sounds like you have become an expert at it now!

[@ceridwengriffith4344]

Where do I find the measurements for all the ingredients? I think I overlooked something

[@starttofinishwithwayne3344]

Thanks for watching! You’ll find the jelly making process, as well as the measurements in the video. Have fun making your jelly!

[@janetclifton5411]

I have used Wayne’s recipe for muscadine jelly for going on 3 years and put up over 250 jars of jelly with great success. Thank you👍🏻

[@mahoganyx9197]

Great Video 🌻

[@jodi9295]

wow! thanks, I have a nice harvest of muscadines this year and didn't know what to do with them. Your video gives me the confidence to try making jelly! We also get blackberries in the early summer, I can't wait to make blackberry jelly! Yum!

[@smullis6836]

Bingo!! Perfect turnout. Thanks, Wayne, for a perfect video. I have never made jelly before, and this turned out perfect!!!

[@eloisedaniels8336]

Thank you, Wayne, for the video. I wanted to learn what a water bath was.

[@starttofinishwithwayne3344]

Thanks for watching!

[@alletasmith2639]

Thank you so much for sharing this. I have been looking for a recipe for this jelly and I sure will be trying it.

[@cardmom59]

looks so good. the only problem I would have is to get enough home before my husband eats them all. I would have to get extra.

[@MsSuperklutz]

I've never heard of a Muscadine.....so what a treat to learn about a new fruit WOW!! How interesting to see how you make this Jelly.....Gosh you guys sure do have good things to eat at your home.....I loved it when Mary gave you some sugar LOL you two are just the cutest couple ever.......OK Mr. Wayne I'm just waiting for Rachel Ray to give you a call and you & Mary will be doing your couple guest appearance on her show.....you'll be making your jelly and Mary will be serving it up on her biscuits....WOOT WOOT yum I'll bet it's yummy. Well Mr. Wayne what a fun video.......YOU ROCK!! Joan Smith

[@leonardmauney7092]

So how many people have subscribed? I rarely subscribe to anyone. I hit the button on your show I really found your video to be quite informative. I like the way I'm guessing your wife did commentary. She drove home the key points. I also like the calm gentle way in which you spoke. I also like the Camara angles. Wish me luck I'm fixing to make muscadine jelly for the first time! I harvested the muskadines from Woodall Mnt the highest point in Ms .

[@Hydrocrank]

Great job I now have alot of jelly fof me and my parents thx

[@grace2garden403]

Thank you for this simple video. Thanks camera woman for asking questions for us. 💕🙃

[@justpar2012]

When did you mash the grapes?

[@starttofinishwithwayne3344]

justpar2012 Cutting them in halves let them cook out pretty much, then squeezed the cheesecloth "gently" to get all the juice I could out of them. (See video for this)

[@justpar2012]

Thanks

[@runningshoes8595]

I’m going to try this tonight. Thank you.

[@starttofinishwithwayne3344]

Thanks for watching!

[@Clyapi]

My parents had muscadines growing on their chain link fence and my mom would make jelly every year. My son loved the jelly that his Nanny made. She also made really good pear preserves (my favorite). Thanks for sharing this video, might give it a try.

[@ninjagodzilla6402]

those are steroidines.muscadines on steroids! i was out scouting deer yesterday here in arkansas & found a huge vine loaded with nice ripe juicy natures wild fruit.thanks for the video.gonna make some of this liquid gold.good job👍

[@homesteadingwithsadie]

Great tutorial! In am going to have to try this next year ! Hopefully my muscadine vine will produce enough to make at least one jar

[@doug9692]

Thanks Wayne for that great canning video, I have Muscadines ,kiwis, blueberries ,blackberries ,pears, peaches, pecans, Lamar

[@brendalawrence6732]

I hadn't heard of muscadine before, but they look similar to a big fat grape only firmer maybe? I used to make jelly all the time when my kids were little. I haven't made any in a long time. You sure made me want to make some! lol Great video Wayne and I loved learning about the muscadines! Your a handy dandy fella to have in the kitchen Wayne.

[@1bjwlsn]

Enjoy that jelly on your biscuits.

[@justpar2012]

Thanks, Wayne. Will use your recipe and cooking techniques. Great explanation!

[@ShelleySailz]

Just picked a gallon of muscadines. Making jelly tonight and wanted to say thank you, both, for this helpful video!! :)

[@missellie6050]

This is my second year of watching your video and making muscadine jelly. i keep my iPad right next to the stove and my muscadine jelly is perfect!!! Thank you so much for doing this video.

[@geoffreyoltmans2992]

I was about to say this same thing... I did this process from the video last year and it turned out great.... and now I have another batch ready to precess. Kudos!

[@lifegiver5727]

I have noticed my jars turning color.. now I know why an how to stop it! thanks so much. Great video!! new subscriber! will be checking back in! Thanks again :)

we are going to put it on Facebook so y'all can get more subscribers

Never heard of this, but I bet it's Good !! TFS A'nna

[@csinalabama]

1.25 ounces of pectin per cup of juice seems to work. Pectin and jars are expensive this year. I made 1.5 gallons of muscadine jelly and 15 gallons of wine. Good stuff.

[@monetdavis2257]

How did you make the wine can you send the recipe and process please

[@Blackcardinal2]

Thank you! It turned out perfect!

[@kindlealexander1442]

Did I miss the addition of the pectin?

[@daisystink1]

I've never even heard of Muscadines but then again I'm from California and all the good stuff is down there with you folks! lol :)

[@p.w.3658]

Really unbelievable!

[@vanitercraft5970]

Well done making some tomorrow.

[@7891234able]

Hi. How would you make juice to drink from this fruit to can. Please make a video oh this from start to finish.

[@teresagraves2818]

love this! hope you have more canning and cooking shows

[@teenapittman4241]

I have never seen muscadines that big. And I thought the ones here in South Ms'sippi backyards were big. Now the swamp ones are usually smaller than backyard ones. Less sunlight maybe?

[@johnsampson6762]

Wild muscadines are smaller as they have not been crossbreed and cultivated

[@Paperinparadise]

How cute you and Mary are! Love seeing your videos!

[@Colbyhgreen]

Great video , Wayne! Thank you!

[@carolann1126]

I don't put the lid on my pot during the water bath and it turns out fine.

[@jodi9295]

I made the muscadine jelly and we just finished eating all of it. (plus I gave some to family members) It has been a few months. It was delicious. Now I am looking back at this video again to make a new batch. I had frozen several bags of muscadines. Thanks so much for this video!

[@debican01]

I haven't heard of Muscadines...what would you compare them too? Great video. I think I was one of the first 5 subbies...Always learn something new. tfs Debi

[@starttofinishwithwayne3344]

debican01 I was just a kid when I started eating them, they grew wild in trees on the edge of wooded areas, They were purple and a good bit larger than grapes and had a much thicker cover (which I ate too, "very good"). The best way I can describe them would be to call them a cousin to a grape.

[@bakerash514]

Best grapes you'll ever taste

[@lee5236]

Great video! Yum!

What part of the south was you from ? I'm in Rockmart Georgia.

[@Nanasews4]

Great Team work.....

[@bretturner3413]

Looking good.love it.

[@johnsampson6762]

What is the reason for the hot water bath? I thought it was a final cook in the jar, with lids off in order to get a better seal.

[@Blackcardinal2]

when did you add the surgel I don't see where you did that

[@starttofinishwithwayne3344]

Go to about 4:23 on the video and I talk about putting sure-jell in the juice just before heating it. The instructions should be on the sure-jell box also. Good luck.

[@josmith2253]

Lord please help! My husband bought liquid pectin an directions are completely different! Do I double pectin an sugar! This is turning into a disaster minute by minute!

[@starttofinishwithwayne3344]

Jo Smith I would use the directions on the pectin your husband brought. We used powder pectin wen we made it for the video but if you use the instructions for the liquid I would think you are OK.

[@johngarvin8888]

1 box of sure jell per 5 cups of juice ???

[@starttofinishwithwayne3344]

You will want to watch the video all the way through and follow the instructions on the box of sure jell exactly and it’ll turn out great!

[@johngarvin8888]

@@starttofinishwithwayne3344 thank you sir. Going to beg mom for homeade biscuits after finished.

[@Blackcardinal2]

Do you put them in ref afterwards?

[@starttofinishwithwayne3344]

Blackcardinal2 We don't refrigerate ours until after we open them. Refer to the sure jell instructions for processing.

Sale for me.

I just got back home from my Nature's Pearl Harvest Party in Advance, NC. I came home with (2) 3 gallon size buckets of muscadine grapes. I will be working hard tomorrow to make the jam. I have been watching alot of videos and some people use the skins too. I see you did not. Also some tell me that muscadine has natural pectin, so you don't need to add extra especially if you add the skins. Also my Nature's Pearl also uses the skins and seeds for our products. I am thinking about grinding the seed and just add that to foods that I cook. Thanks for sharing I will be using some of your techniques, especially adding the vinegar to the water. Also I have to use splenda or something in that line, because my husband and so many friends are diabetic.

[@starttofinishwithwayne3344]

+Deborah Brooks (Debbie) Good luck, we really like our muscadine jelly. Looks like you are going to have plenty! Please let me know how you make it jell with the splenda.

[@luvin2camp]

+Start To Finish With Wayne I did get all mine made and it turned out great, I replaced the same amount of sugar with Stevia. I made 36 pint size jars of muscadine jam. I used the skins cooked them soft and put them in my Vitamix and turned them to mush and mixed it all together and got some beautiful jam. Yeah, I will be giving them as Christmas presents this year.

[@luvin2camp]

+Deborah Brooks (Debbie) Also I did end up using the surejel with each batch.

[@keishadolberry8776]

WHERE DO YOU GET THE JAR HOLDER THAT YOU USED TO PLACE THE JARS IN THE HOT WATER BATH??? 🤍

[@starttofinishwithwayne3344]

We got our jar lifter from Amazon.
