Wow! How did you come across those cravenchx?!

What are these? How do you use them? Where did you get them?

Search for Tattler reusable lids. www.reusablecanninglids.com You use them just like any other canning lids. I was introduced to them by Patrice Lewis from Rural Revolution.
They are great. They do have a specific instruction on tightening the ring, but you get all that info when you order. Good Luck.
Oh, I canned 5qts. of turkey broth and 5 qts. of collards yesterday.

Have a great new year everyone!

Thanks,

I haven't got a pressure canner yet but hope to and then do up my own chicken broth/stock and veggie stock. By the way, what's the difference between Stock and Broth?

Thanks again,

Stock is typically not seasoned and really doesn't taste that great. Stock is thick like a gelatin.

Broth is seasoned, usually has salt. Can be eaten by itself, used for soups and such.

Please make sure you can any stock/broth with pressure. Never try to can any meat products without pressure.
Good luck.

Don't worry I read instructions three and four times before I do anything. Yeah I'm a man but I want to live.

And if you are looking for a good canner, I would suggest you check out the All American. They are expensive,
but well worth it.

I just used the "monster" for the first time yesterday and did 15 pints of venison. I admit to being a little intimidated but it all went easy as pie.

Good to hear. I'm intimidated with getting into pressure canning. I want to, but don't want to poison myself.
