Thanks so much for your help. Now, if I could just find ground chuck on sale!

I'd love to can hamburger patties, since my husband and I both love hamburgers...not sloppy joes, chili, spaghetti, etc., but good old-fashioned hamburgers. I found the following post at http://www.homesteadingtoday.com/showthread.php?p=3116781 Quote: I make hamburger patties the size to fit down into a wide-mouth jar. I brown them lightly in the fry pay. I can usually stack about 6 or 7 patties in the jar. add 1 tsp salt to each jar and fill with warm water. process 90 minutes in pressure canner 10 pounds pressure. #1 - Is it safe? #2 - Will the patties hold together after canning? #3 - Is density a problem? After our freezer door didn't shut properly last week, causing us to loose several pounds of meat, I'm looking for ways to can the meat I've been buying on sale for future use. Any advice? Thanks in advance!
