Canning Veggie Beef Soup

[@mayhembeading3737]

Hi there everyone. This is so funny, love this lighter side of y'all. Anyway, if you're wondering how Pam's canning recipes turn out, they are FABULOUS. We moved from Tennessee to Wyoming last summer and I brought my pantry with me, including one of her beef soup recipes. Things haven't turned out close to planned here, so I told my husband that we're eating out of the pantry until it's gone. Everything has stayed shelf-stable even with that move, jars packed carefully. Thank you for your info Pam, you're my trusty source for info but especially for canning info.

[@DeeDeeDIY]

Homestud! Lol yep you are a stud, Jim. Pam got a catch. Lol y'all are full of puns today. Flashing us like that!

[@wildrosetreasuresva1837]

Hi, Pam & Stud….I mean Jim! Thank you for sharing this recipe - it sounds & looks so good! Did you know? Ball Blue Book just released an updated, 2024, 38th Edition of the Guide to Preserving, with 40 new recipes. Right now they are hard to find…not on Amazon yet. I found my copy @ Walmart in the canning section this morning. Leisa with Sutton Daze, YT channel shared this info last night. 😊

[@KarenShady-l4b]

Hahaha…. ‘Home-stud’ had me giggling.. lol.. Jims a flashing homestud.. lol.. I’m definitely making this beef soup. Thanks for the recipe, and the laugh

[@BiteMe-lz8th]

Love it!! Homestud & Mr. Flash!! Would love a Flash t- shirt, too!! You two are just Awesome!❤

[@RoseRedHomestead]

Thank you! Jim

[@KitchenFairy61]

I would add minced garlic, bay leaves, rosemary and green beans to my veggie beef soup. We keep a tube of tomato paste so that my husband can add it to his soup as I don't like it in mine.

[@RoseRedHomestead]

Your add-ins sound very good. Jim

[@ivybrandyn]

That soup looks SO good. Also, I plan on grabbing some books soon! I'm sure they're a wealth of information!

[@suzyvance7328]

Thank you for this video... I'll make this tomorrow...

[@joeyhardin1288]

I was gifted a canner like yours and I regifted it to a young couple at church, since I have two others. I am sending this video to them and tell them to look at your canning play list to get more help. I will go over and help them with their first canning projects when they are more comfortable with pressure canning. Thank you both so much. OH, I have shared your videos a hundred times.

[@RoseRedHomestead]

Thank you. I think gifting a canner, offering to help, and recommending our videos is very kind of you. Jim

Veggie Beef Bean Soup is always in my canning pantry. I like it to be a bit more liquid, because I use it primarily for breakfast, poaching an egg in it. Keeps me full for hours! Similar spices to yours, although admittedly, every batch is slightly different with spices and veggies. Mandatory staple!

[@luannbowen5836]

Would love your recipe.

[@JaniceMartin-fd8mr]

@@luannbowen5836 Hi Luann, no recipe. I've been canning 60+ years so am a dump together cook. Quite similar to Pam's. I presoak beans so I have a general idea of how much more they will swell. That depends on age of beans and storage over the years. You never really know for sure. Because I want extra liquid for poaching my eggs, i only fill beans to a bit less than half, then add whatever veggies & spices (different in every batch!). Fill with water or broth. Then when making breakfast, I dump the jar in my skillet, add a layer of dehydrated salad greens. When starting to simmer, I crack an egg on it and poach on med heat. This makes a very filling nutritious breakfast which keeps me going for hours - and is relatively low calorie as a bonus. Enjoy!

[@paularizzo5217]

Pam, I'm so glad you named your daughter after your sister. I did the same thing. For 32 years I have had to explain exactly which Deborah I am talking about! I'm sure you can relate to that. Lol Vegetable beef soup is my absolute favorite for any time of the year. Thanks for the reminder that I need to make some real soon.

[@danniemcdonald7675]

Jim! I can't believe you flashed everyone here on You Tube! 😮😂 You are crazy and we love ya ❤! Pam, the soup looks delicious! Thanks for sharing. I usually just can vegetable soup and the add the meat when preparing it. That way, I can vary it. I have plenty of chicken and beef (ground and shredded) in my pantry ready to dump and go.

[@lynsmith2698]

Hi Pam and Jim. Great recipe. I love canning soups, so very handy. 🇨🇦🌷

[@donnathomas3612]

We're in Delaware and love shopping for fresh produce at local farm stands! This looks delicious.

[@RoseRedHomestead]

It's so good! Jim

[@karenvafakos2045]

Thank you so much for your research into safe canning and today for the link for "your choice soup recipe". I have now read it through twice and plan to use those guidelines to adapt a home vegetable soup recipe to those guidelines! Your time and confidence are so appreciated!

You are so welcome! Jim

[@Damselfly54315]

We like our vegetable beef doup with tomato sauce, but I get how you did that, so got what I need to do my own soup, thank you for sharing😊

[@nicolerobbins1714]

Hello, I really appreciate the content you present. Would you consider doing a video speaking to food safety issues with canning large batch canning such as when you have to do multiple batches of canning. I now have more flexibility because I just purchased the Nesco electric pressure canner in addition to my faithful American Standard pressure canner to facilitate smaller batch canning but would love to see content for safely holding prepared food while it’s waiting it’s turn to be canned. Thank you!

[@mary-catherine9237]

Thank you, Pam and Jim, for these canning videos. Have a canning related question. I see people on other social media using jars manufactured by anchor hocking, etc. due to lower cost. How do we know if these jars are really safe?

[@marybethbowers5620]

Great video! I use the Presto Electric Pressure Canner and love it so veggie soup is on my list of to try and we go to a wonderful farm market.

Pam, I did your canning course. In the past couple of weeks I have canned pinto beans, baked beans (the Healthy Canning website recipe), and raw pack roast beef. I'm hooked on canning!

Hi Pam, just wanted to remind you that we in Arizona don't do Daylight Savings Time. So please clarify if you mean Mountain Daylight or Mountain Standard time for the flash sales. Thanks for all you do. 😊

[@barbarageorge7971]

Not seeing the sale prices on the two books?

[@beverlyreynolds5686]

Me neither. I’ve logged in. No sale price. I didn’t see or hear about a code

[@kerrie8486]

If I make this for dinner could I can the leftovers. Love you both. Learning a lot thank you

[@jsimmons7023]

Yes, you "can" 😁

[@shelwhitley1011]

Don't forget that the pressure canning is going to further cook your soup. If you've cooked it to the 'done' stage, you might have mush after it's canned. I would stop, can some of it and save out what you want for a meal... and continue cooking that on the stove while the rest is in the canner.

[@IreneConrad-yy1xy]

I would suggest doing the amount for canning first and prepare enough to have extra for your meal, then it won't get overcooked.

[@appaloosajack]

thank you,,,,,,,greetings from France

[@MsShadoeRunner]

Hi All, is it me or has the price not changed on the 2 books? This video was awesome, and I always learn something. Hopefully we are all out there looking for a local connection to get fresh foods. These farms will be key in a SHTF situation

[@DavidandNancyStiffey-nv8ue]

The price never changed for me as well

[@pamharkins4601]

Thanks! So funny and another canning lesson. !

[@RoseRedHomestead]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@Linda-xp3ig]

I always place at least one bay leaf to all my broths but have never canned broth/soup/stew. Would you recommend putting one in each jar or maybe two to three in the pot to cook Pryor to canning?

[@colarguns]

Hi y’all, fairly new subscriber, and I have spent a few hours searching for how to make this vegetable beef soup (meal in a jar), but using only dehydrated ingredients. Is this possible to do? I am a single man at 60, so sometimes this can be tough on the how to’s, lol. I can grill however! I am intending to send this to family in Florida. I just want it so that all they do is rehydrate and eat. Hoping you can steer me on this, and if not equipped, perhaps an external reference would be helpful. Thanks so much, you’re both awesome!

[@Prairieraised24]

Thank you for all your educational videos! I’m wanting to can outside also. What kind of stove do you use? How much propane/ fuel do you think you use for canning quarts?

[@RoseRedHomestead]

Go to reseredhomestead.com homepage and click on Store and slide to Off Grid and Camping Cooking Equipment and click on the second item: Camp Chef Tahoe 3-Burner Outdoor Stove address and will take you to our Amazon Store Site. We use a large propane tank and have no idea how much we use for processing in our 23 QT Presto canner. Jim

[@maryadkins1451]

Could we use the electric digital Presto Canner?

[@WonderlyRitchea]

I have a question I may have missed it. Are your jars warm when you put this hot soup in there?

[@cindymillion5595]

Can you use ground beef instead for this recipe?

[@thecarpentersdaughter4456]

Can I use 'Better Than Bouillon' rather than dry bouillon cubes?

[@sherrywilliams1131]

Bay leaves?

[@CHICHISWEETS]

Is there a difference between this beef soup & canned beef stew? 🥣 This looks like the same ingredients. For the stew, I would make a gravy w/ flour & butter to add to the canned veg// beef/broth mix.

[@hazelfulbright2357]

Can I use lean ground beef instead of cubed beef?

[@pamelaakapambo822]

Hello Pamela, Jamestud

[@SuzanMattson]

Hi There- I just love y'all. My questions is 1. What cut of beef did you use? 2. What kind of bouillon did you use? Much appreciate your response. I am on my way and this is on my list.

Can you make this in the Nesco electric canner? I would like to can meals in a jar and am wondering if the I can do it in the Nesco....

[@HillbillyHen]

im new with canning - what do you mean by siphoning?

[@idaaycock1396]

What type of grill do you have outside to can on? Any special requirements that are a must to have? Thank you.

[@jessicaquiroz7178]

Which one is better the stovetop pressure canner or an electric pressure canner? I want to start pressure canning but I’m extremely nervous. I have used an electric pressure cooker and I love it.

[@julie-annneidlinger4498]

I use the Nesco electric. So simple and EASY

[@xurx2838]

I use both, but I use the electric more often because of the smaller batch size. 4 pints/batch for me. It's also easier, imo because it runs the cycle on its own. 🎉

[@jessicaquiroz7178]

@@julie-annneidlinger4498 so you like the Nesco I’ve been thinking about getting that one

[@janenichols3880]

I use Instant Pot Max and love it! The only down side is that it can only do 4 pints at a time! It is pretty much fool proof! The instructions are very good!

[@RoseRedHomestead]

I rely on the Newco if I am doing a small batch and my stove top Presto as shown in the video for larger batches.

[@cindyfincher7258]

Are lentils an approved ingredient? Do they fall under the peas and beans?

[@SewingInTheMountains]

What kind of burner are you using on your counter?

[@joannevans8278]

Do you know if cooked barley can be frozen?

[@RhondaBoston-yq5wc]

Can you add cabbage to this, or will it turn to mush?

[@RoseRedHomestead]

Healthy Canning gives directions for hot-water bath canning or steam pressure cooking. I have not found a tested recipe provided the USDA. Jim

[@mamabear1260]

I love your show but would have appreciated that you shared what ingredients and amount you used. Many Blessings ❤❤❤. We all have our own tastes and am always interested in what other people use.

[@RoseRedHomestead]

I didn't work from a set recipe. It was about 1 bunch of carrots, 4 potatoes, 1 large onion, and a 1/2 cups corn with 2 lbs beef.

[@girlygirl5003]

I don't know if you will see this comment, but I do have a question. I'm really delving into canning at this point having taken your courses. There is a chicken soup I want to try to can out of the Ball home canning book (I don't have it with me at the moment). It calls for mushrooms, but I don't like mushrooms. Is it safe to leave an ingredient out if I don't like it? If so, do I need to substitute with some other ingredient (such as more potatoes...it does call for potatoes)? Thank you

[@RoseRedHomestead]

So long as an ingredient isn't there for safe preservation you can make adjustments. You might want to take a look at how to make your own soup recipe: www.healthycanning.com/usdas-your-choice-soup-recipe

Hi Pam, I'm a little confused about canning beef. I followed your beef stew video to can mine, and you didn't brown the meat first. So I didn't either. But when I canned ground beef, I did brown it first, as you did in that video. Is that okay with the beef stew? You two are delightful!

[@RoseRedHomestead]

Thanks! Jim

[@lillypatience]

It's fine, as long as you followed the tested recipe. I think Pam cooked the beef in this one because she was hot packing the soup.

I was wondering about the gasket on your canner, what do you use to lube the gasket. I have a presto from the 70's, and used petroleum jelly on it, ruined the gasket. Had to replace it, tried vegetable oil, left it sticky after a while. Can you use food grade silicone on the gasket with out damaging it. You use yours alot, how do you keep it in good shape.

[@RoseRedHomestead]

We just make sure it is clean. We use nothing. We replace when we need to. Jim

[@shelwhitley1011]

I have the Presto 23 qt from the 90's...user guide says warm, soapy water...rinse and allow to dry, then replace in lid.

[@boymama1623]

If the corn was replaced with celery wouldn’t this be about like the beef stew canning recipe you posted recently? Pretty similar? Although this wouldn’t be thickened for stew..so I think I answered my own question!

[@paulettelawson9961]

I thought it was 75 min. for pints & 90 min. for quarts .

[@lillypatience]

She said something about the recipe calling for less time because the ingredients are already cooked. Maybe just the difference between raw and hot pack.
