What a wonderful kitchen! I can't help being a bit envious, but am very happy for you. I just stumbled across your channel yesterday so I have a lot of catching up to do. Thank you for sharing your life experiences with us!
💜🙏 FAITH, HOPE & LOVE! 🙏💜
BTW, I knew this was gonna be an all nighter just by the title of the video. Get yourself some much needed rest after your finished 🤪
How long does it take for the pressure to go down in that huge “all American” canner? How do you keep it looking so new. My dear husband bought my one and only pressure canner 50 years ago when I first started canning at age 19. Still using the same canner a Mirro, I have gone through a few gaskets, but none worse for the wear. That big one you have is nice but at my stage in life I only can for my grandkids to take to college, and back to the navy after leave. But my navy grandson is getting married in a few months and might not need his jars of dinner. Well just curious about that depressurizing (if that is a word) that huge canner.
There was no number of jars total😢. Sad face
I live in Canada and that canner has been my dream canner for over 30 years! I'm 63 very soon and I am very determined to get that thing before I'm 65! Now that I see it in use, I am so excited. Im going to have to figure out how to get from the states, but I am sure I will figure it out. I shouldn't have waited so long because our dollar is disasterous. I am NOT COMPLAINING... I AM EXPLAINING> I AM NOT YELLING, I AM HIGHLIGHTING... I have loved your videos for years and was impressed and inspired by your resilience and strength and desire to take care of your family given the one you came from, you could have decided not to be better. As an old person, I am so proud of you. You have accomplished what I have not but wanted to. I AM on your waitlist. Love and hugs from one sister friend to another ! 🤗🤗🤗
I worked at a university cooking so big meals is what I did. Your kitchen is missing one thing... A three tier rolling cart. Put your roaster with hot jars on it . Less steps. Also use serving trays to prep your lids and rings. You can stack them and keep under roaster on middle shelf of cart. You will wonder how you ever lived without it! Make sure detentions of cart will support size of your roasters.
Such a great idea 🎉
Wow Jammerell, I now now how crazy it was when my husband and I caught a deal at a local butcher and bought 200 lbs of ground chuck last March for 1.90 a lbs and realized it wouldn't fit in my freezer so I turned in Mrs. Heart and watched how to Can it! 18 hrs.... 1 pressure canner, and thank God my husband was so helpful. You are amazing. That is a feet and your future self will thank you!. BTW, I watched homesteadheart because my very first time canning I got Stuck, emailed her and she called me to help me out, wonderful lady! And she I is the reason I purchased 550 jars, and a all american, and a presto. You Rock TH-cam ladies! And Mrs Becky too. Gotta love that she walked me threw garlic season lol.
Brings back memories of my childhood.❤️
We went to bed with the sounds of the jiggler going. My momma would have two canners going and 80-100 jars of goodness with each canning session. I still have these canners and a lot of her jars. Her canning started following a trip to the orchard to pick fruit or out to the wild to pick huckleberries or to the garden to pick produce. Lots of work but my best memories.
What a blessing to have such beautiful, wholesome memories.
You have given me strength more then you know I recently been diagnosed with neck cancer not a smoker either but had my neck dissection and you kept me comfort through my night praise lord and Amen
Sending healing prayers and that you will be pain free during these difficult times. God bless. 🥰❤️🙏🏻🇨🇦
I'm so sorry to see your post about your diagnosis. I don't know you but I will put you in my prayers daily. Hugs.
Praying for you 🙏
I’m so glad these videos have brought you comfort. I’m very sorry for what you’re going through. I pray you’re able to rest during this time. Ex 14:14 ❤️❤️❤️
Prayers
I'm so amazed how organized you are. Your family must be so proud of you. With so much on your plate everyday, you just go with the flow. You never seem to let anything bother you, you are so calm. I love watching you, you are a superwoman.
I was going to say the same thing... lol. She was so calm the entire time! Amazing example to all of us, that remaining calm is essential to getting through things & being victorious over whatever you're working on.
when the weather breaks, take your rug outside. Wet it down, squirt with dawn dish liquid. Give a gentle scrub with a new scrub brush and then hit it with the hose to rinse it good. Let dry in the sun. should be as good as new
Great job with all the canning. That is amazing
5am loopy Jamerill is so FUN! Loved this, and the slow descent into morning time delirium 😂
This is a breath of fresh air...I love seeing you no makeup hair scarf on which is funny because mostly women of color wrap their hair, in a robe, coffee drinking and working hard for the family..in the raw.Not putting on for the camera showing real life..I appreciate you being so open. Thank you. This is the epitome of what a TH-cam influencer is,and does...

Hey jamerril you can take it to a dry cleaners and they can take it out of there for you I had olive oil spilled all over my sweater jeans and area rug and they got it all out hope it helps ❤
Hi Jamerrill, I use kitchen twine to tie my weight to the top of my canning lid. I poke it through the 5 lb weight hole and attach to the handle. I have started doing this because I have misplaced it so many times. My altitude never calls for 5 lb anyway and the kitchen twine is light enough not to affect the air release. Also, 941 wow!
Best mama, here in South Africa we call you a "Rock" mama. You've encouraged me to do more for my family. I have watched that movie too I think about 3 times it's a very good movie I kept fingers crossed the first time I watched it. Thanks again for this... ♥️♥️♥️
This is me, except I’m quilting! Can I send you one?
So how many cans did you do?? I watched the video all the way through till the end and you were going to tell us, I am thinking it was somewhere near 145-155 can of meat and potatoes
I love how unflappable you are. When there is a problem (broken jar, etc.) you just deal with it and keep on going. That is the hallmark of a true Mega Mama.
I've only got my husband, myself, and two roommates, but I can for all of us. Found 100 pounds of chicken legs quarters that I'll be jarring up this weekend, and my Azure order came yesterday, including 50 lbs of potatoes and 25 lbs of beets. I have two days to get that done. And I really need to make bread on top of it, cross your fingers for me. 😆☺️. What a great sense of accomplishment, Jammerill! Well done, lady❤️❤️
For the rug, maybe start with a layer of paper with some baking soda on it to suck up and additional oil. I'd set it up on both sides and then see if you can use some dawn soap to work that area. It always removes oil so well, I imagine that would cut it. You might have to do it a couple times.
When momma is away, my kids found the strawberry syrup and decided to dump it on my rug once, and then walked through it all across the carpet. Oh my, the feet prints were adorable, but it took some work to remove pink from beige.... Been there 😆😂
Where do you get your recipes and what is a safe place for a new canner to follow recipes?
I haven't done anything today but watch this video. You win "The Canning Momma Award"!!!!
Thanks for taking us along on your journeys!!!
God has truly blessed you Jamerrill. You have a John Henry produce store, and a Sharp Shopper Store. You're a hard working Mama Jamerrill and a Blessing to everyone..
Girl, you are a warrior.
You’re commitment to getting this finished deserves applause.
Thank you so much for sharing your adventures with us. I look forward to the next. God Bless you and your sweet family.
Hi Jamerrill! Try pressure washing your rug! First use baking soda and let it sit to soak up as much oil as it can. Use a shop vac to remove baking soda and then use Folex and a pressure washer. You’ll need to adjust the pressure so that you don’t fray the rug but I’ve done it before and it turns out beautifully! It’s certainly worth a try! 😊
Hi Jamerrill,
please note that the temperatures need to be similar for everything. If the meat is cold, the jars should be cold and the water in the canner, too.
If the food is hot, then the jars and water should also be hot.
Reason: If the water starts out hot, the canner comes to temperature must faster than when it starts out cold. The problem with that is that the core temperature of the meat doesn't reach the correct temperature long enough.
For example, the canner is under pressure for the correct amount of time, but the cold meat didn't have enough time to warm up.
In short: match the temperatures of everything that goes in the canner.
(Some people think it is just to avoid jar breakage, but that's just an added bonus.)
Feel free to contact me for any further questions. 💗
I was thinking the same thing. No need to heat the jars with this canning session.
Soooo impressed!! Not only all the canning, but your hair stayed fixed with a bandana on, kitchen stayed clean, even staying healthy drinking kombucha. Girl you are definitely a force to be reckoned with!! Go you!!!
can'n so much is good but your kitchen is so big and the large table so hugh. how many do u can for?
Really love how you pulled that far corner of your kitchen together with the round stained glass window, blue cabinet and pole light. I hadn’t seen it in a while and noticed it in the thumb nail. So bright and pretty.
I live alone but I put a lot of you tips and tricks to work each month. I have weeks of prepped and cooked meals in my freezer. At least once per week I cook up several meals at a time. Not only do I have more free time but I save money as well as eat more nutritionally. It's a win win win . Thank you so much.💪🙏♥️🐝
I had a Presto canner staring at me for 18 months 😮. I was so afraid to try it. Water bath canning was easy. Pressure canning a whole different beast. In August/September 2019 I saw what was happening to the banks. I told my husband that it was hand writing on the wall. I opened the box and it suggested canning water. I did. I was shocked how easy it was and couldn’t understand why I was so fearful.
I canned meats, veggies, corn relish (can’t get that in the store), even canned banana nut bread. About Thanksgiving time I slacked off. Harvest time was over, holidays, etc. Six months later the world shut down. March 2020 I went in full time mode and canned everything I bought on sale. Unfortunately supply issues are still going on and 2023 is predicted to be bad. My pantry has plenty, even for friends and family who refuse to see handwriting on the wall.
I now have good clean nutritious food on my shelves. I’ve learned where I can buy food in bulk, at farmer’s markets, local farms, etc and save LOTS of money. Amazon has sales from time to time on the Presto 23 quart canner. I went to garage sales, estate sales, auctions, Facebook marketplace, sales at Target, Walmart, etc. for jars.
Don’t be overwhelmed. Just take the first step. Slow and steady. You got this. Tell family your saving to buy these things and any monies will go towards this goal. You’d be surprised how many will help. Good luck! ❤
You are my hero. There is no way I could do 5 canners at the same time. My stove has a hard time doing one canner. Hope and dreams.
Wow!!! While I watched this video I meal prepped BBQs, made some oatmeal raisin walnut cookies and cleaned the kitchen including the dishes. Thanks for keeping me company! ❤
Chalk works amazing on grease stains! I’m a wife of a oilfield worker/ farmer and this has saved his clothes so many times.
Watching your incredible dedication makes me shape up and start preparing for the unexpected. Nothing happens without hard work. Thanks for the motivation.
Jamerrill is our ray of sunshine! 🌞
Hey, thanks so much, sweetie! 🤗
She sure is ❤
I agree wholeheartedly
One thing I've learned, is when doing the potatoes, you can put them in cold water for about 15 min, twice, and then just put them in jars with water, or broth, what ever you want to put in with them, and just cook them at the recommended times. You don't have to blanch them first. Saves so MUCH time that way. . :) Just a thought for you, since you are doing so many :) GREAT video!
What a blessing you are to your family🤗
Wow, what a huge, impressive undertaking; and what a fantastic kitchen!!! I’m 72 years old and just started pressure canning a few months ago, and now regret not having learned how to do this many years ago, though I’ve never had the organizational skills needed to take on such a massive canning project as you have. Still, your video has inspired me to clear out some space to make room for more canned meats and vegetables, so thank you for that!
Your joyful perspective amazes me. I would have been in tears at the end of all that. You’re a wonderful mom and entrepreneur.
You are an inspiration to us all! Look at how much you accomplished!!! Love hearing your 'talks' while in the kitchen. You are an amazing mama and your family is so lucky to have all that good and nutritious food preserved!
It's such a joy to watch you manage your "kitchen projects" in your beautiful new kitchen as I eat my lunch. Thank you for these moments of relaxation (even though it means you are working HARD! lol)
Using the roasters for heating your jars was brilliant. You’ve made a lovely stash of future food🙌🏼♥️ I also love watching Jennifer Brockman’s channel, A Country Life.
second weekend that i spend watching your videos to relax. you are such a hard worker and beautiful soul, thank you for uploading these videos
I have done this for years! I love those huge canners!! Way to go! This is so fun! I miss those days!
Hi Jemerill
I usually pour talcum powder
on oil spots it forms a bit of a crust as it soaks up the oil, then I wash it and usually the stain dissappear. I have never done anything as big as your carpet. If you want try it, good luck. I would vacuum up the talc the next day and then wash it with a carpet wash.
This is absolutely remarkable!! I am astonished at this beautiful woman’s accomplishments. Much, much respect!
Wow Jamerrill you are one amazing mama! I’m glad you had a friend and one of your children that helped. But I know you had to be tired at the end of each day! But you persevered. Now you have the fruits of your labor.
My daughter and I will be losing the bulk of our income in May and I so wish I had a canner!! But just cannot afford a pressure or water canner. My mama taught me how and when I raised my own garden we had a beautiful storage. But the last 8 years has taken a bite out of me and this life. You have done an awesome job and only 1 jar lost!! Blessings y'all!
I feel for you wish I was close so you could borrow mine.
I’m so sorry to hear this. My heart goes out to you, I wish blessings for you and your family. I pray God has a plan to help you through this difficult period. 🥰❤️🙏🏻🇨🇦
Ohmigosh! I love that you have water above the stove. I've never seen anything like that before!
Blesses my heart to see you have so much room to groove and power to make all those appliances whirl away! Mega Momma kitchen is purring away! Love it!! ❤️😎
So satisfying to fill the pantry!! Way to go Momma!
It really is!
Why didn't you put salt in with the potatoes that you canned?
It sure looks so satisfying sisters! Such a good momma! Wonderful family
@Karol Molitor she did. Potatos, salt, water, potatos, salt, water was the pattern. :)
I have a suggestion: Buy a couple of plastic sprayer bottles ( found mine in the travel items section at Walmart for $.98), and fill with half water and half Dawn dish soap. Keep out and spray all the dishes for washing as you go. That way you don't have to pick up that big bottle of Dawn, and it also stretches your dish soap. It's wonderful, really.
Love it! I love canning but boy do I take my hat off to you for this marathon canning session. Honestly there is nothing better than a well stocked home canned pantry (your personal grocery store)....its a thing of beauty,
I Love these long videos, I learn so much watching them. Thank you 🤗
Just a thought on jar breakage. I also had brand new jars break. Then I read on researching it that it’s best to crack the lid for five or ten minutes. Jars are dealing with extreme heat and just opening full blast to the cool air can cause them to break. Ugh! All that work for something so simple. My heart broke every time it happened me. Needless to say, every time now I crack the lid and I haven’t had any broken jars. If I don’t have another load to can, I even let the jars cool down naturally in the canner.
Awesome canning project! I know how tiring it is. The longest canning spree I’ve done is 12 hours. You go girl! ❤
I was so worried about you and being exhausted and making an error with the canners. I am very impressed that you kept it together! You are superhuman!
I love the energy you have towards the end of this video and I recognize it lol.
I miss those hectic times and am happy the next generation is carrying on with wholesome traditions like meal preservation.
Massive canning job👏👏👏👏 I also purchased the big 41 qt All American for myself for Christmas and I love it. It gets the job done and quick. I did a huge broth canning job and put 21 qts in. It depends on your jars, regular rounds and square shape is what I canned broth in. Some of my jars always touch and I have never had a jar break from touching. Happy canning👍
You know, the first time I used it I got 20 jars in but I was worried I was doing something wrong. This is very encouraging!
You hve a unique follower! I have taken in a freezing feral black kitten in the rain who has been named Gideon...Although sick, he has been beautifully rehabbed and is obsessed with food, having had little and also cooking. He loves you tube, and especially enjoys watching you cook, as he does me, and cries at the stove when he knows it is cooking time. So he especially loved this caning episode featuring his favorite groceries being cooked (he's a potato and meat guy...plus he gets canned food). He reached out at your spoon and tried to grab a piece of potato...then ran to the table to where i put the plate thinking dinner was coming for us.....what a guy!
You are so blessed to have such a big beautiful kitchen to accommodate preserving food for your large family. God is good!
Jamerrill! I truly wished I was your neighbor cuz I would totally come and help u on your Mega Momma Cooking Days! I love the process of preserving in all the ways pressure canning, waterbath canning, freeze drying and freezing. My hubby and I are empty nesters, farmers and love being with our family. Thanks for all u do! Very inspiring!! Blessings!
You have really opened my eyes to canning possibilities! I always thought of home canning as jellies, pickles, and if you get really fancy mixed vegetables! Lol Meat... soup... stew... you are an endless source of inspiration! 🥰
SO MANY possibilities!!! 🤗
I never knew you could can all these things until I found such hard working ladies on here. You deserve a Standing Ovation for a Hour .
I Truly Don't Know How You Do So Much . I wish I could just figure out how to handle every day things without my brain screaming. I never had anyone show me how to do any of these things. My momma never had that either so bless her she couldn't show me but boy could she cook. I Miss My Momma so Much 😢❤
Oh my gosh! Keeping the jars warm in the roaster ovens... LOVE IT stealing that idea when I can next. Also, we have started cutting potatoes into thicker French fry cuts and canning them, then we pop them in the air fryer when we open a jar and have fantastic fries!
Great idea.
When you make them for French fries do you boil them first or do you just raw pack them and add boiling water to them? I’ve never canned before and am just learning but I’m intrigued and think this would be awesome to have them ready for the air fryer just not exactly sure how you would can them. Thanks in advance. ❤️🥰🙏🏻🇨🇦
I just love your positive attitude...all my respect sent your way from vest of Norway...my golden Retriever doggies react with happy tail and all ears on me when they hear your voice...that must be for shure a happy message to you, Jamerrill 🥰🥰🥰 wishing you a better back and neck❤❤❤
You rock!!!
I did just finishing canning 21 quarts of beef broth(actually I am technically not done with the last batch. Just had to stop to put a cottage pie together with my son so as soon as I can clean my stove top the last set goes in. You are my inspiration for the bone broth!
Hello Jamerrill, Girl you be gettin it in. I would love to see you get a stainless steel cart on rollers to aide you in safety in the kitchen. Along with saving you some steps. It will really save your back too. That's what we use in commercial kitchens dealing with those hefty quantities to transport food and equipment. Just something to consider. I really enjoy your content. Cynthia from Alabama.
You absolutely amaze me! Thank you so much for this nice long video and showing us all this canning. What a ginormous job you did! You are a blessing and a great role model.
Jamerrill, I have back issues like you and wanted to share a helpful hint. You need a step that levels out your shoulder to fill the tall pots. Instead of rotating your shoulder and stretching to reach inside the pot, try a step stool, you will notice a big change in your back strain
Hi Jamerrill I learned that blanching the potatoes are done differently than when we blanch other veg. For potatoes you start with cold water. Put your potatoes in the pot, add water to cover them. Use high heat to bring water up to a boil and then immediately simmer for 2 min and done! If you are blanching larger sized (like a whole small potato) they say 10 min on simmer. I found it much faster and easier when I did this and my potatoes were not mush at the end. You are a true canning trooper!!
Typically when you cold pack jars, you start with cold jars. That would save the set up/process for keeping jars warm. You just need to start with a cold canner and water if you have cold jars and products. I have learned how to actually cold pack beef stew in jars (meat, potatoes, carrots, seasoning). It turned out great! We just make a couple packets of brown gravy, throw the stew starter in, and have a meal in 20 minutes! Love your channel! ❤
I considered it hot packing (although not 🤣) because I was putting the beef stew jars in a canner that was already heated up because the ground beef was hot packed. At least it all worked out because none of those jars broke. Love the beef stew idea! I did homemade mashed potatoes and homemade beef stroganoff in the slow cooker this week with some of these home canned goodies. 🤗🤗🤗
Angela, I cold pack it too using raw meat.
I also cold pack beef stew, lamb and pork too. I put apple, onion and celery with pork. I put a dry mix morrocan spices with some lamb, others with traditional English "hot pot" stew. It is so easy and safes so much time prepping to get it in the canner.
Jamerill, I just want thank you from the bottom of heart for always being such a inspiration! 🙏
Good job to you and your helpers in the background! What an accomplishment!! 🙌 🙌 🙌
We installed the exact same tiles in our bathroom that you used for your backsplash. In fact they were even installed right around the same time. We too have been very pleased with how they are working out!
I so look forward to your videos! You’re inspiring ❤️
My mom always canned everything, I am just starting- last summer. I look forward to any information about it. Thank you!
Jamerrill, you are a mega-mama-multi-tasker! Wow! Every time I watch you I’m amazed at how many things you keep going all that the same time.
Jammerell, my youngest kids are middle-aged, yet watching you is fun for me!
You save me on days when I don't feel well. I just watch you on auto play! I watched hours of your old videos yesterday and you motivated to me make some cheese cauliflower soup! It was beautiful and I have lots of it in the freezer now for other days when I feel poorly xxxx thank you
Whenever I watch a Jammeril video like it I want to forward it to Alisha at the DD 😁 you inspire me to meal prep at least my work lunches! Thank you 😊
This was fun. Played it in one go while doing breakfast prep for the week! I will definitely be playing videos like this during canning season! Yes play make more….
Jamerill, 18 or 19 quarts in the canner might depend on whether you're using wide or regular mouth jars. I've found in my All American canner, the number of jars depend on this. But,, just like you, I'd rather not overcrowd my canner and thus have everything can evenly. Boy you sure did tackle a huge project on this day! Way to go to get it done!!
Wow. That's a lot of jars. Congratulations on getting it all done and your dedication. Thanks for sharing.
Inspirational...that's what you are, Jamerrill!! Your steady and patient nature is so lovely to witness... thank you, thank you, thank you! It's like doing a double and 1/2 shifts at the hospital non stop!! xoxoxo
I have a commercial range and can run 5 canners at a time. ( I give each canner a number and write it on a sticky note on the counter. Then I have 5 wind up timers that I set -- one for each canner. I write the times on the sticky notes for the different steps of the process. This helps me keep track of what is going on when and where especially when I'm doing 4 or 5 different items. I could never do it in my head.
Oh wow, sounds like what I need to do next go around!
This is a great tip! My canning days aren’t as big as that, but the two or three I run could use that organization! I always get lost in the mix…
Great job Jameril! That is great determination and dedication. Can't wait to see the delicious recipes that you will make for your family!😍
It’s good to have good friends and a good daughter .
To say that I’m impressed & super proud of you it’s an understatement!! I suffer from depression & you are inspiring so much!!🙏🏻🙏🏻
Jamerill, you are a machine!! A powerhouse of productivity and I am currently living for your videos!...am completely in awe of what you are able to achieve! Well done you! 🥰👏😃😍👏👏 xx
About the rug, dilute Dawn dish soap about 50/50 with water, saturate the oil spot and let sit for an hour then wash. I use a mixture of about 25% Dawn to water in a spray bottle for any laundry stain and it's especially handy on collars.
I never thought to sterilize my jars in my roasters. I absolutely love the Mama ideas you come up with. I have 6 big roasters and every size crockpot , they are all used at times. I had 4 mismatched roasters but bought 2 new for my daughter’s upcoming wedding & wanted them to match. I’m sure I will have them all going at once eventually. Now I’m just rambling, lol. Stay blessed girl!
I didn’t can much this past year. Watching you kind of makes me want to get moving! We’ve ordered a quarter side of beef, (our second), so that will get me motivated when it gets here. (Fall) You work too hard! I hope you have something fun to do on your down time. 🤗
Dawn dish liquid may take the olive oil out of your rug. Take it to a car wash and hang it there.
You need to check the genius book of records see how close you are to breaking it or if you did,you are truly super moma.i know your family is so grateful to have you.God Bless you and yours
Jamerrill I love your videos and the care you take in doing these things for your family. You're an inspiration for me. May GOD bless you and your wonderful family forever. Love from Georgia.
Mom of the century!!! What an incredible accomplishment!
Hello Jamerrill! I have been looking for you for a couple of days...so nice to see this canning video. I started canning about 15 months ago and I found it totally addictive! It was so fun to watch.
Such an inspiration to all mama's out there. Keep going my sweet friend! God bless you.
After canning that stew meat, it makes the best BBQs ever. Drain the juice and save that, then quickly warm the meat in a skillet with your favorite BBQ sauce and seasoning. Greatest sandwiches ever! We do it with deer all the time 🥰
The oil on the rug: as a chef we are treating oil stains quite a bit, I’ve always had the best luck spot treating with dawn dish soap it really does work incredible in oil/degreasing. I would take it outside lightly cover the oil spot with dawn and let sit fir an hour or two and then work it into the fabric like kinda scrubbing it and then rinse well, maybe with a hose for the extra water pressure. You may need to do the process again depending. If you spill oil on the floor dump salt all over it liberally to cover, let it sit and then sweep up and then clean the floor with a mop/floor cleaner or even the dawn soap. Let me know how it goes ❤
Was going to suggest dawn dishsoap for the oil as well. Since it was an entire bottle, you may want to soak up as much as possible with paper towels first, then do the dishsoap.
Wow, that was impressive. THATS SOME SERIOUS CANNING. WAY TO GO GIRL!!!
Always love your videos! I raw pack both my potatoes and my stew meat. Speeds the process up. I don't like mushy potatoes. Also I use these potatoes to make potato salad. You are a mega momma. I am sure I would be overwhelmed to operate at your level. Enjoy the fruits of your hard work!
Thanks for this comment I was wondering why she was cooking the potatoes first? Have you raw packed ground beef as well or is that just chunks of meat? I’m new to canning and am just trying to learn as much as I can. I want to be able to can food for my daughters family so they will have nutritious and delicious convenient meals without having to rely on everything from the grocery store that is in boxes and in the freezer aisle. Even there they have long lists of ingredients with names I can pronounce and I don’t think they should be ingested by humans. Anyway I just want to help them be as healthy as possible. God bless!❤️🥰🙏🏻🇨🇦
When you empty or adjust water levels in that heavy pot, a battery powered transfer pump could help with the heavy lifting. Harbor Freight has an inexpensive one and there may be other makers.
Happy canning to you.
Absolutely a really satisfying thing it is to see full shelves. To know that when things are hard you’re going to be able to go down and have food for your family. Don’t stop.keep going and wow. Well done! I’m going to say most of us ladies are a little envious of the space you have that beautiful kitchen… wonderful absolutely love it and thankful that you show us. Thank you so very much for sharing your journey. God bless 🙏❤🌻
Loved your video J ❤ On the days I am canning, I start at 4:00 AM and I’m usually done by 6:00 but, I have gone as late as 8:00ish PM 14 to 16 hours of canning.
I’ve never done a 24 hour canning day Oh My that’s very impressive 👏🏻
A shop cart that has a solid top surface and one below could be useful for transferring hot canned items on for transport to the island or any other location. It could save steps and can be a temporary resting place for the canned items. Can help with safety when moving hot canned jars.
Love your show and I learn a lot from you. God Bless.
I'm in awe of your basement grocery store! What an incredible and inspiring sight.
Jamerrill, awesome job! From someone who experienced their very first earthquake in 2020, I didn't even have to think about my canning jars (hundreds) being affected because they are stored in boxes from Costco sitting on the shelves. I love quarts to be in PB or honey boxes then they aren't too heavy to carry with only 6. Raspberry boxes are also good ones for pints. I was watching what has been happening on earthquakes and noticed virginia has one on the border just a couple days ago. I immediately thought of you. Now after watching this and seeing that your jars are "just sitting on the shelf" and not in boxes... think and ponder on that one. May want to hit up costco for a few free boxes. Happy to see you getting into more canning. Oh.. when I stuff my canner, I let my jars touch. That hasn't hurt a thing. ;)
Janet this a very good suggestion and one that a lot of us can benefit from. Food security includes good storage solutions. I’ll be hitting up Sam’s for solid boxes too.
I was just thinking of the raspberry boxes for my jars today so thanks.
The boxes the jars come in are good for storing them in too!
Virginia and NC…. East of Greensboro and over toward Hillsborough. I heard/felt it and thought it was a car wreck out on the road. 😮
I have been wanting to learn to can and learn to do water baths. Thank you for these nice long videos about canning. I think, finally, after more than a decade of wanting to learn I have the confidence to try. Now I just have to go buy all the stuff to start.
I’m like you! I want to give it a try but the cost of everything up front and I’m sooo worried about messing up and have something explode! But the feeling of having wholesome prepped food in cans would be such an incredible blessing and I know it would be something my extended family would benefit from greatly. I just have to get up the nerve and the $$$ to start.
This is a great channel to learn. Also, Homestead Heart TH-cam channel as well. Both are great teachers!
I’m new to your channel and I’m so glad you popped up on my page! I’m busy trying to get through your playlist since I have trouble sleeping!
An idea you might try with your pot filler to reach the right side of your stove is to buy a small piece of flexible plastic tubing ( like an old length of hose) and measure it to reach the pots.
Then you can just connect it to the end of the spigot and then drain into the pot.
Wow that was quite the canning job and you did it with so much grace. Thank you !!!
That was incredible and amazing and you totally deserve a trophy, as well as a day off and a LONG nap! Lol. You never cease to amaze and inspire me!
