Anyone do this as a means to preserve food?
I grew up on a farm where we had 2 very large hen houses for eggs/food, cattle, hogs, huge garden.
We lived off of that stuff all year, supplementing as needed with "stuff" from the grocery stores.
So, I grew up canning, freezing, smoking meats, etc.
I can now - green beans, pickled okra, tomatoes, homemade vegetable soup, pepper jelly, meats (chicken breast, thighs, pork, breakfast sausage, etc), anything I can pressure can, I will.
Never know when you might not have power and then your freezer full of food, goes bad.
My canned goods are still looking & tasting good, 4 yr later.
I'll be firing it up this summer for more veggies and anything else I can get my hands on.
Who else cans???
