CANNED VENISON RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Remove all fat from meat.
• Pack cubes tightly into clean jars, using a knife handle or handle of wooden spoon to get out any air pockets.
• Add 1 tsp salt per pint; 2 tsp salt per quart.
• Do not add any water in jars.
• Clean jar edge, add ring and top, and turn to fit snugly- not tight.
• Add jars to canner and 2 to 3" of water.
• Process at 15 pounds pressure: 75 minutes for pints; 90 minutes for quarts.
• Remove canner from heat and let jars cool slowly out of draft with weight left on canner.
• Do not put canner under cool water to cool it.
• Just go to bed and leave it over night, removing the jars from the canner the next day.
• Remove jars from canner and wash off sides of jars with soap and water to remove any broth or oil, if needed.
• If any jar doesn't seal properly, just put its contents into a zip-lock freezer bag, label and freeze.
• Do not re-process.
• This keeps well for 2 years.
• Note: A hot-water bath is not adequate for processing meats.
• You can use fresh or frozen (thawed) venison for this recipe.
• If using frozen venison, let it thaw slightly, cut into cubes, and then let it thaw completely before packing into jars.

Steps:

• Raw pack:.
• Add 1 tsp canning salt per quart jar.
• Add 1/2 beef bouillon cube to each jar.
• Pack with meat and desired amount of onion. (I add 7 to 10 pieces of onion to my jars). Pack meat tightly. I use a wooden spoon to jam the meat in tightly.
• Remove air bubbles leaving 1 inch head space. Affix two part lids.
• Process in pressure canner at 10 lbs pressure for 90 minutes for quarts.
