My favorite things to can are chicken, turkey, and beef. They can be diced, sliced, or ground. This post is going to show you how to can cubed chicken. Please keep in mind, I followed the directions for my pressure canning book. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, follow the directions that came with your pressure canner!!! They are all different.
What you will need:
Raw chicken (slice it up anyway you want to)
Canning jars (I use pint sized jars for my meats) and lids
Canning bubble remover
Water in a cup or teapot
Rag/paper towel
Canning jar lifter
Pressure canner and your instruction book!
Timer (I used my stove timer)
What to do:
Dice up your chicken (make sure you use a cutting board and clean up well after you finish!) and pack it into clean canning jars. **Sorry the videos aren't that great. I was filming myself while trying to show you guys what to do :-p **
I did not burn myself, please use two hands and lift the lid away from you so you don't get steam right in your face.
That's it. Not difficult at all! If you guys need any help, please feel free to ask. I'll do my best to answer your questions and I also recommend getting the blue ball canning book. It's a great resource!

I think it's great! I really want to start canning, but might not start until after we move! You are such a great resourse for me! Thank you! :)
p.s. I think the videos turned out great too
Thank you Maggie. Your to kind. I would probably wait as well. Just so you wouldn't have to worry about jars breaking during the move. When you get ready to start canning, hit up yard sales for the jars! You will probably have to go and clean them really good, as they tend to sit in peoples garages and basements for years, but they are super cheap! I got most of mine that way!
