Anyone start canning yet

[crashlanding]

A guy I worked for, he and his wife made sweet pickles, we would trade. He gave me the recipe and man, it was a very long process but they were so good. I never tried the process

I've made blueberry and cherry preserves so far this year. In the next couple of weeks, I will can chow chow, 7-day sweet pickles, plums, peaches, pears, spaghetti sauce and ketchup

My goal is to learn how to can wild game. The idea you have food that doesn't rely on electricity/freezing appeals to me.

Any venison left this late in the year gets canned so the freezer is empty for the upcoming deer season.

38 flats of tomatoes so far and probably 15 1 gallon bags in the freezer. We can everything from mesquite beans to eggs. But my favorite is pickled watermelon rinds.

Bread and butter pickled eggs, dill pickled eggs and regular.
What are the mesquite beans like?? Never thought about those.

When we raise chickens (meat birds)I like to smoke them first then we remove the meat and Can it so it has that good smoky flavor!

You guys from Georgia must be canning peaches?

Palisades peaches are here now, but the August peaches tend to be sweeter. Had peach pie this weekend and will be canning soon

Wife began picking our currents Friday, so we will be canning those tomorrow

They are kinda like a cross between green beans and celery. Kinda hard to explain but mesquite trees are a legume like soy beans. Eat more than 5-6 and you will be looking for a roll of TP.
