[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 629565, member: 84"] I haven't made jelly since I was a very little girl. I don't think I helped very much with the process. Janet, canned meat is fantastic. It's as tender as can possibly be...........and you can use it for anything. There is nothing more wonderful than to grab a quart jar of meat off the pantry shelf and have dinner prepared in just a few minutes. :) I'm waiting for some good sales so I can get meat canned again. Also.......follow the instructions for pickling........regardless of what Tony says. They're trying to protect you from getting deathly sick. You can't copy at home what big manufacturing plants can do. So, tell Tony to blow it out his ear and follow what they tell you to do. We researched a very long time before canning meat. I tend to rely on what grandmothers have done forever as opposed to other things. But still, we researched. And when it comes to canning meat we follow the instructions to the letter. The Tightwad Gazette has become my Bible. There are no words to describe the vast wealth of knowledge in that book. Susie, peeling tomatoes wasn't nearly as bad as I imagined. Actually our tomatoes were very ripe.......and they basically peels themselves after blanching. A good thing since Aubrey and Darrin were helping. Peeling peaches......depending on ripeness, could be a pain. [/QUOTE]
