Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Canning tuna? No tuna to be found that i know of in Puget Sound. Smoked Salmon is on the menu though  You have to go about 50 miles out and there is a warm current out there that is full of tuna. No limit on the number. http://i165.photobucket.com/albums/u46/maxdun/tuna%20trip/IMG_0529.jpg Albacore? |

MOAR BEEF!
This was a chuck roast I got at Costco. I figured no need to get fancy beef for this little experiment. I cubed it into pieces about 2 inches ea, and hit it with salt, pepper, and powdered garlic. 
Next I grilled it a few minutes on each side just to sear it and give it some flavor. 
Into the jars. 
I topped it up with beef broth. I kind of screwed up and didn't leave enough head space. Out of seven jars, three failed to seal. No biggie as this was just a test. Next time around I'll leave more room. 
Into the blast chamber. 
It came out pretty decent other than the three that didn't seal. This canner is HUGE. Next time, I'll buy a bunch more beef and make a project out of it. So far, we've used the meat to make some great soup and a pot of chilli (w/beans damn it!) I still have a couple of jars left that have been sitting in the pantry for a few weeks. So far, they look just fine
Thanks to ODT for the idea

So what size/type of canner is that? My wife has been asking about these type of things, her mother used to can and she is showing some interest in it. Have any recommendations for a new canner? Thanks I did a lot of research before we bought this one and time and time again All American won. This thing is SOLID. There is no way this thing will ever wear out. Plus, it is self sealing, it doesn't need gaskets. Made in America
