I'm sure you've already done your canning. I've been away and didn't see your post till now. I have cold/raw packed boneless chicken before. Sterilize your jars and let them cool. Pack raw cubed chicken into the jars add 1/2 to 1 tsp of kosher salt.... DO NOT ADD ANY LIQUID. The chicken...

Well, I only butchered 1 bird. It was a lot smaller than the birds I butchered last time. So I'm going to let the others do some more growing. Bleeding out. after plucking. I was expecting a larger breast. legs and wings removed. innards removed. gizzard, heart, and liver. The wishbone...
