kappydell Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 tomorrow is jam day - grape, strawberry & raspberry. Took all from the freezer (had to freeze until I had enough) today to thaw, along with about 50 lbs of tough mexican beefsteaks I will be canning as well. I will be biz-eeeee! Quote Link to comment
Daelith Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Got about 10 pints of purple hull peas put up a couple of weekends ago. Quote Link to comment
Cricket Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Today I am pressure canning navy bean and ham soup, thanks to the leftover ham from New Year's Day. I haven't canned for a while, and this got me to reminiscing about Mrs. S. So here I am! I can't believe I remembered my login. Quote Link to comment
Annarchy Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Cricket!!!!! So nice to see you again. Mmmmmmmm, bean & ham soup..... Quote Link to comment
Jeepers Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Hi Cricket I'm still eating the ham and bean soup I canned a year or so ago. It's sooo good. Nice and easy to just pop open a jar of homemade soup. Quote Link to comment
Cricket Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Hi Jeepers and Annarchy! It's nice to be back and see familiar folks. I made six quarts of ham and bean, and it looks like all six sealed! Quote Link to comment
The WE2's Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Canning is pretty much over for this year, except for "jarring" up yogurt! LOL We've pretty much got all the canned up foods put on the shelves and they should last us through winter(s). Quote Link to comment
snapshotmiki Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Made dog food (chicken, froz. peas and green beans, slice yam and carrots, can of kidney beans, half apple sliced, and chicken broth) in the crockpot on Wednesday and then pressure canned it. Full crockpot made 10 pints and lasts about as long as 10 cans of wet food. We add it to dry dog food for flavor and nutrients. Quote Link to comment
Daelith Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 I caught asparagus on sale for .98/lb and managed to get get 10 lbs canned. Made 7 pint & half jars. Had a little left over for dinner. Quote Link to comment

The WE2's Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Last week jarred up 15 pints of carrot soup...yeah, I know...not supposed to can puree' type stuff, but I did and it turned out fine. It will make a wonderful base for stews and how about carrot cake! Quote Link to comment
Daelith Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 Last weekend, I canned some chocolate strawberry sauce. Got 8 half pints. Had a little left over so I had it on some ice cream. 4 Quote Link to comment

Rhubarb sauce, Rhubarb-strawberry pie filling, etc.... Scored 10 lbs of rhubarb at the farmers market. When I get a craving I generally buy waaaay too much, esp when it is on sale lol. My bad.... 1 Quote Link to comment
Mt_Rider Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Ack.....thanks for the reminder, Kappy. One of two plants that do grow up here is our rhubarb. And yes, I should be grabbing some. Won't be terrific yeild this year cuz bad hail x3 ripped thru even those tough leaves. Honestly...I think that's the first time that's happened in these decades up here. MtRider Quote Link to comment
Daelith Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Been a bit since I've dropped by. Since my last post in this thread I've canned pickled onions, sweet relish, balsamic onion jam and chicken stew. Planning on trying to get some pickle relish done this weekend. 3 Quote Link to comment
Daelith Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 Hi Ambergris! Is no one canning this summer? Okay since my last check in I've canned pickle relish without any onions and peppers, sweet pickles, bread and butter pickles, 15 lbs of ground beef, lemon honey jelly and zucchini bread jam. Also got another 25 lbs of ground beef put up in the freezer. 2 Quote Link to comment

When I get back home, I need to can the carrots and beets. They need to be harvested before they get too old/pithy. 1 Quote Link to comment

We plan to do some camping and traveling and I'll can when we're at home base. 1 Quote Link to comment
