We almost have to do the water bath up here. The boiling point is lower so even if you boil the jam the required 15 minutes, it's not as hot as it would be down at s lower altitude. So better safe than sorry.

I want to can fish and meat and non acidic things.... But after reading some I find out that you can water bath can right in a pressure canner ... just dont lock down the lid.
I am going to be 60 in three days and I have NEVER pressure canned. I took a single class for water bath canning... we did pickles. So I know the process... I havent done more than that one day but it seems pretty simple
So I am thinking of just getting a small pressure canner for my first go round.
I want to make and can
Ghee (clarified butter has a very long shelf life and can be canned)
Bone broth
fish stock
chicken stock
beef stock
Connsomme
Pickled things
Beets
carrots
green beans
eggs
garlic
onions
Giardiniera (pickled veggies for antipasto)
bread and butter pickles
I have had homemade canned tuna and it ruined me for the grocery store stuff... I want to pressure can that... The tuna I had was a gift and it was canned in oilive oil with little slivers of garlic and bits of dill.... Me wana do that.
But I also want to try canning chicken and beef... With some herbs and olive oil.... somewhat like the canned tuna... maybe sear it on the outside on the barbeque and then pack it and can it to cook the rest of the way... give it some smokiness.
Oh and I also have some ideas for canning tamales.
