Lol, not officially. Maybe because I had just explained to my 9yo that a baseball bat would not be an appropriate rooster training stick... Cock in question seems to have gotten the point. At least he is meek today.
By hot packed, do you mean processing with a hot water bath? Ymmv, but current guidelines call for pressure canning all meat products. Process chicken broth pints for 20 minutes, quarts 25, both at 10# pressure, allow pressure to release naturally. Noisy, and a little more time consuming, but the flavor is not affected, and is far safer, imho. Meats are a different time. Be happy to post those times, too, if you'd like.
