Thank You we love chili, and I wasn't sure we could do it in the electric canner, I just received it this week , and I am just learning at the ripe age of 79
The experienced and knowledgeable age of 79? 😘 I bet you have the best tried and true recipes! Switching to an electric canner is just a couple slight changes to the process, but overall much easier. Just add 10 minutes to your ground beef processing times, and you are golden. 🙂
I was just thinking about making some of my favorite chili and canning it. Even though mine is a bit different, it still helps to have your video to follow along with as a helpful guide. Thanks for this. Now I know I can do mine and not worry too much.
Glad to hear it! The recipe isn't as important as the process and processing time. I'm kind of a weirdo (baby) about spicy food, so anyone who likes spicy chilli should NOT leave this recipe as is, anyway :)
I love that you are showing things to can if you don't have a garden. I'm new and right now these would be something that I could put on the shelf that would definitely come in handy for winter. Thanks for sharing
Awe, thanks! Sometimes we are garden blessed, and some seasons....it's squash season at my house and that doesn't can well. But then I'm gifted guavas or felling the need for chilli 🙂 there's always something to can!
You would check the processing times for each ingredient, and process the soup for the longest time. The link below is generic for soups, but in the search box you can check individual ingredient process times. We must have the same things in mind, I'm doing minestrone soup soon, myself! nchfp.uga.edu/how/can_04/soups.html
Im VERY new to canning! You may have said this and i missed it, but why did you fill the canner full of water to pressure can the chilli? I thought that was only for water bath canning?
You don't have to fill the canner for pressure canning, just a 8+ cups. I usually put in 10-12 as a personal preference, but as long as you have at least the minimum, it's fine.
LOL, I have that same super power (mess making)! I like chili hot, so all I'd do is add some spice. Apparently, I have a cast iron stomach...another super power, perhaps?!
That's a water bath, and you set up into pressure canning. Pressure canning the water just 2 inches of water , 8 cups, or 2 quarts of water. You did wrong, that's why your water is cloudy because it is leaking. I have been watching Rose Red and others, but not like that. Anyway I like your Chanel. We don't want to confuse a new beginner canning . Very important, we do it properly. I'm just expressing myself and having peace ✌️ with you all.
Keeping the pan on the burner would help.🤷🏼♀️ So you are using Spaghetti Sauce? What other ingredients are in that aside from tomato sauce? This was really difficult to follow… and I’ve canned for years.
I know, I slid it over as soon as I had my beef chopped up! I'd still be waiting for it to brown otherwise! I bought just generic "spaghetti sauce," and I'm sure every brand has slightly different ingredients. I specifically did not get any of the ones I'd buy for pasta, like "garlic and basic" or anything with heavier seasonings or flavors like that. Essentially, to can chili, you would make your chili (whatever recipe you prefer) and process it for 85 minutes instead of simmering for an hour or slow cooking all day to soften the beans.
I've never had sweet chili before but that makes me think it would have a sloppy joe taste. I'm going to try brown sugar in my next chili batch! Also, this video is so helpful. I followed your instructions step by step and it's worked out great!@@homestead4life18
Just wondering, you said at the end if you want to can the rest, warm it up first. Can you not just can it using from cold, like left overs the next day? Can it be cold packed? I know my newby ignorance is showing 🫣
This looks like something to cook for dinner, and then pressure can a few pints at the same time. Great demonstration!
Thanks!

Thanks fot the video I've been wanting to can some chilli for awhile now! Put it on some hotdogs and a quick dinner!
Oooooohhhhh, planning that for next cookout day! I never think about that at home, but with chilli readily available no - why not!
Thanks!

Did you water bath or pressure can. The water is over the top is the jar.?
Can you tell me how long you should pressure can homemade vegetable soup? I don’t put any meat in mine. Your chili looks great.

Thanks
I have 8 one gallon bags of fully cooked ground beef. So I couldn't use it to can chili?
@@NuffinEdited you COULD, but the meat would be overcooked and tougher, so quality would likely suffer.
@@homestead4life18 Thank you for answering. I just got my new canner. I'll try canning something else. New sub
@NuffinEdited thanks for watching! And welcome to the canning club :)
Thank you for the great video! Are you going to heat the lids going forward?
I don't think so, I had 100% seal without heating, and a week later none have come loose. So, I think I just saved a step :)

@@homestead4life18 okay, thank you! I learned something new!
Can I fully cook first (can left overs)? Ty
You can - but quality may degrade as it's essentially being fully cooked twice.

Must be, because spicy food catches my face on fire! Can't do it, lol. Enjoy your version, though - I know a lot of people prefer it spicy.
How long do u process quart jars?
I only see the time for pints on the official website...

How did you get 6 pints in the canner? Mine only fits five.
i can fit 5 wide mouth pints or 6 small mouth pints.

That's drowning in sugar!!!😱

Thanks! It's not a sloppy Joe taste, it's just not spicy :) love it!
