I did this method today and looking at the comments, I too am interested in the texture of the chicken pieces. I cooked the bones of the chicken legs in a pot for broth. i deboned them so I could put all boneless chicken in the jars today. It was nice to use the broth to fill my jars. I didn’t put any seasoning in today. I also have learned a ton of information from you, Lisa. thanks a lot. When I go into the pantry and see my pretty jars of food I thank you and God for the ability to have these jars of ready made food that I actually like. Not like so many of the frozen foods that are available. They look good but just don’t taste good, and have too much salt and other seasonings. Thank you for educating me so I could have my food on the shelves, for me to eat when I’m ready that cost much less than ready made frozen food.I do enjoy using rotisserie chickens for lots of things. God bless your family
Thanks! I'm on my maiden voyage canning chicken today, came back to watch this a second time, glad I did. Doing 3 jars raw pack and 3 jars hot pack to compare.
I just ordered 4 more boxes of lids while they were available. Let me back up, I was shopling a cpl months back and got a huge deal on Ball canning lids, I was BEYOND excited..... That is until I started to use them.... They would not seal like others I had bought the previouse year... I tried random ones from different boxes and they were not as thick as past lids and the inside ring was thin also and not all my lids sealed 😪 I took those same jars and put on my Forjar lids and they ALL sealed. 😊😊 Quite honestly I have never heard of these until you had stated awhile back they sent you some and you loved them. My husband even noticed the differance in the lids helping me put them on the jars. I am 100% hooked !!! Thanks so much for all that you do teaching us and showing us products that are game changers in our food prepareness :) You are much appreceiated.
I have so many ball lids that I cannot justify buying more right now. The way people committed on how ball lids are not as good as the new company lids, I thought great, I bought defected lids. I just canned ugly chicken, chicken broth and brisket. About 20 pint jars. All the jars sealed !!!!! I have been keeping an eye on my jars I canned one to two years ago and so far no fails. I will someday order the new lids but after I use a lot of my ball lids 😁
I have found that my Ball lids do well with water bathed products like fruit and jam. So I'm going to use my Ball lids for that stuff and ForJars lids for my pressure canning. Win-win!
Christine, I'm in the same situation. I have a good supply of Ball lids and haven't had any problems with them. Last November Food Lion had turkey on sale for $.29/lb. I canned 128 pints with only 2 jars that failed to seal. All are still sealed. As I replace my supply of lids, I'll take a look at recommended alternatives to Ball.
The ball lids are more than sufficient. These for jars lids are just the new popular lid on the block and it doesn't change anything about the Ball lids. I think people are very heavily promoting them because of the referral kickback they get and the fact that the lids do the job fine. They're too expensive, in my opinion.
I've always done raw pack, but this sounds interesting. My chicken always falls apart when I make chicken alfredo. It would be nice to have a chunk of chicken instead. Thanks for the ForJars info and discount. I ordered back in Canuary when they were on sale and used your code. I couldn't believe the price and they arrived in 4 days. Thank you so much!
I like it when you give us suggestions for meals your going to make with you canned protein. I usually have something planned for it, but I like to get new ideas from you and you've given us some good ones.
I have always done raw packing until today. I had gotten a couple whole chickens on a sale, and I had some chicken legs in the freezer that I had gotten on clearance, and I needed to get them out of my freezer. I baked them in the oven and then canned up the chicken and used the broth from the roaster to put over the chicken. It looks so good! I will definitely be doing this again.
I can’t thank you enough for the info (and discount code) for the ForJar lids. I ordered 100 of each size and they arrived in 4 days. And they feel like good quality ones too.
I went to Kroger’s today and bought two big packages of chicken and four roasts. I cut my chicken and beef into chunks and precook too Leisa. I just made a chicken pot pie tonight and when I added in a pint jar of chunk chicken, those chunks spread up nicely. I would of had to use two pints of chunk chicken if I didn’t break them up. I didn’t want to do that. One pint, I pulled it apart and every bit had chicken. Im using my four jars tomorrow!! Very excited……
Good advice about getting ready for garden harvest NOW. Went by local Walmart this week. Most of the jars they had last week are gone. Still have a good supply of Ball lids, water bath canners and even a Presto 16 qt pressure canner. Wish I had bought more jars, than I did, the prior week. Now doing jar inventory checking at the two nearest Walmart stores. As to hot packing I usually do a par-boil and cook until about 3/4 done. I usually can whole chickens or leg parts/quarters with the broth produced by boiling. Just started doing some raw packing. Faster, easier, but I miss the broth. Often, I can finish filling the canner with excess broth. Unseasoned, it still works well for making gravy and it is an extra boost when adding broth base or no salt boullion, in my case. Thanks for sharing. Sealed jars on a counter are always pretty regardless of how the contents were packed!
Ok that's some pretty chicken! 💖 I've only done raw pack but will definitely give this a try. I'm interested to see the difference in texture. I've canned roasted turkey and love how that comes out. Thanks for showing this technique. I've learned a ton from you! I love how you dont stress about the little things as well. That just gives me more canning confidence. 🥰 Thank you!
I"ve canned my chicken both ways. Just depends on how you want to use it. I have ordered from For Jars. I"ll be getting my second installment soon. I stocking up. Thanks for these videos.
My freezer went out last night so I have a lot of chicken to can. I’ve only done it ugly chicken style but I think I’ll try the hot packed method. Perfect timing for your video. Thanks for sharing this video.
I cook as is, from frozen, than cut up and place in jars while still warm, far less oil and “white blood” gunk…I also added Italian spice mix for flavour in some of my jars ..love pre-cooked chicken canning…it’s far far more appealing in the jar also!
Leisa I’m going to do this never thought about cooking in oven-how much easier! I also love the lids, I had 2 fails on Friday using up my Ball lids, I’ll be glad when they are all gone. Great video, thank you.
Hey Leisa, awesome video as always my good woman! So i went to forjars' site to have a look at lids. Really great deal until the shipping is factored in!!! It was almost 40$ to ship on a 58$ order! I would have hoped for free shipping on orders over 50$. I can go to my local Canadian Tire and get roughly the same amount for bernardin for a few bucks less. Grrrrrr....i wanted to try the forjars lids and 58$ for 100 regular and 100 wide mouth would have been a sweet deal😠
Might have to order those lids after I run out of my Ball lids since lately I have only been getting 11 lids when I should be getting a dozen!!! Thanks for the discount code! Love your videos!
I raw pack and add seasonings. I think raw pack tastes better. I’ve done it with added liquid and the the other way in my opinion tastes better. Don’t be afraid to add salt and pepper and other flavours you like.
I'm waiting for my first order of 200 ForJars lids to arrive and am going to order another 200 (or 400?) the first of April. Thanks for the demo on using them to hot-pack-can cooked chicken...great idea to 'bake' it before filling the jars. Thanks again, Leisa. :-D
After I used the suttons10 code and completed my purchase … first time customer … the website immediately offered a coupon code … 20% off the whole website … with a 20 minute timer … then it expires… is that because it’s my first order or does that happen all the time??
The canning jar lids… for jars… where do they originate? I didn’t find much info online when ordering… hope it’s An American product/business. Enjoy your channel - appreciate your genuine humor, fun wit, and generous teaching …. With admiration and many thanks!!
According to the information on Amazon they are made in China. I couldn't find anything on their site, either. It's in the "more information" section when you select a lid size to order at Amazon.
@@oldtimerlee8820 💩… that’s a bummer… thanks for the Columbo assist on digging up that info. I trust Leisa’s experience and recommendations … I prefer to support American business 🇺🇸…
I've heard that some folks parboil the chicken breast instead of baking it, using the water afterward to add to the jars. Have you done so? What were your results?
Q? HOW THE TEXTURE OF THE CHICKEN AFTER DOUBLE COOKING ? IS IT CHEWY OR RUBBERY. DOES THE CHICKEN LOSE IT FLAVOR MORE IN WATER ? CAN YOU DO A COMPARISON TASTE TEST ON CAM WITH YOU AND PHIL. WOULD TO HEAR HIS OPINION. THANK YOU
I just found your channel and subbed up and have watched lots of your videos....l have a question on not so ugly chicken i have a chicken base to make broth is it acceptable...love your channel and thanks
Thanks again for a wonderful video....... I have a question????? Can you use store bought chicken broth in place of water in this recipe or in place of homemade chicken broth for other recipes?????????????????????
I did hot pack chicken drumsticks, they look pretty good but i did have less liquid in the jars than when i started and the water in the canner was chickeny if thats a word lol. Does that mean i didnt tighten my lids enough, or did i do it too much? W hot water bathing I'll get the odd jar where that happens but ive never actually figured out the answer😊
How is the texture? Since it is twice cooked does it get tough or dry? PS: I have 1 square jar that I inherited when someone moved and I use it to hold red lentils; looks pretty
I cooked my chicken 2/3 done as USDA recommends. It was beautiful but DRY. Adding it to a sauce is a perfect solution. BBQ sandwich or Asian Bowl w/ Soy Sauce and hot oil over rice or quinoa are two of my favorites. Teriyaki and Hoisin are next on the menu. I hope this helps.
I had some siphoning in my jars. They all sealed but the water went down about 1/3 in the jar. Does it mean I didn't get all the bubbles out and did I fail?
If you are hot packing meat chicken, beef or pork. And you run out of time for whatever reason can you store it in the refrigerator and heat it up the next day too finish hot packing it?
I was wondering why you wipe all or most of the jars and never move the place where you wipe on the cloth. I use a paper towel and move it, refold it or whatever it takes. Hope this makes sense.
Me 3. Holiday sale prices are the times to stock up on turkeys, fresh (not cured) hams, and all the other applicable items that can go on the pantry shelf. Seems that every season and most holidays have specials, along with the traditional seasons of harvest for fruits and vegetables.
@@bettywhittington9654 According to Amazon, they are made in China. Click on a lid size and then on more product information. I checked several size offerings and the all stated Country of Origin is China.
went n checked on my canned meats, all my corned beef went bad, some hamburger turned white at the top. Haven't opened up yet to dump, will do that tomorrow. Now I'm leary of canning any, hope my chicken is ok, did all correct time. 🤷♀️
@@SuttonsDaze its sealed but doesn't look right. I know the time was right, not sure what I did wrong but to be safe will throw it out. Thank you for your reply
Well, its a new company so years are not an option at this point. But they have held up beautifully for 4 months. Both canning and vacuum sealing. I am very impressed.
@@SuttonsDaze , I ordered some, just in case. So disappointed with balls/kerrs! Have to check the brand new jars, because some of the glass rims have bumps on them and won’t seal. Others have dented lids, like you said
Haven't tried any of the Forjars lids yet. I would like to know your opinion on Pur brand lids. I bought some a year or so ago when I could find no others. Hadn't got into them yet as I had other lids to use first. Thanks for the video.
I like it hot packed or raw packed. But I have found that I prefer to add a little broth to my raw packed. I just end up with chicken sitting above the liquid, drying out, if I don’t. Why?
I have a question please. I didn't grow up eating home canned food. When I raw packed my chicken the taste was exactly like I opened up a can of chicken. My family is not a fan of that taste. We're using up what I made in things like pot pie where the canned taste gets covered up. My question is if I cook the chicken and then hot pack it with chicken broth will that reduce or eliminate that canned taste?
Question: i canned my first bone in chicken now, 5 quarts. The seals are good BUT i THINK juice bubbled out of 1 of the jars not sure which one because i can feel the greasy chicken juice on the jars. Not real bad but its on them ...Are they STILL GOOD ?? Seal seems great, look good. 🤷♀️
@@oldtimerlee8820 I do, and did. But I was told it would be contaminated….Idk…I didn’t believe it, but then….people get you thinking and then I got worried, so I thought I’d as my Queen of canning….♥️. Thank you Oldtimer Lee…I appreciate your comment…🤗
I have stocked up on my forjar lids. May purchase more. Thank you for sharing this video. I am planning to can chicken this weekend. I actually bought chicken breast for $1.98 a pound at Sam’s where I live. I feel I scored. I even bought Chicken thighs (with bone) for .98 cents a pound. Can those be canned?
Sutton Daze hey, I’m newer to canning, I’ve only been doing proteins. I think I’ve over filled my last batch of raw chicken and a few didn’t seal… my question is I canned them late at night, removed from canner and thought they would be fine . Well a few didn’t seal , it had been six hours since out of the canner. I immediately put them in the fridge and left for work , do you think the meat is alright to eat? Thanks I really enjoy your videos. ❤️
Since the canning time would be 75 minutes why would the chicken need to be completely cooked? When hot packing beef it doesn’t need to be completely cooked. I am new at this, so sorry if this is a dumb question.
If you could take a big can of chicken in the supermarket and remove the label and have it in a clear can it would look exactly the same as ugly chicken! When you open it up it shreds it doesn't stay in chunks. I make chicken salad with it but I also make chicken salad with ugly chicken. Any chicken that shreds you are paying a whole lot more to buy it in the store or even to hot pack it. You lose chicken it shrinks and it doesn't shrink to that amount when it's canned raw. You can also make chicken nuggets out of raw pack chicken there are a million and one uses! I think people want hot pack chicken because it looks nicer and looks don't matter when the poop hits the fan!
When you put the chicken and the water in the jars, were the jars hot? How hot? Do I need to keep everything 120 degrees or whatever? I wish I had mom's jars. :) I am going to buy some lids and the canning book. Thank you!
@@kittymullins504 When I can potatoes I have been known to eat them cold from the jar. Oh, are they ever good cold just like that, but that is just me!!! LOL!
Thanks for doing this one Lisa I know it hurt your soul. I do like to do around of not so ugly chicken there are a couple casseroles that I like to make that I do like the chicken a little chunkier or occasionally some things but since it is chicken and it is already cooked I can use it either way one way or the other and you're right this does take more time and energy so if I've got a free or Saturday afternoon or something I might do this if I don't get it done it's no big deal. But yes like you said if it's hot packed it does seem to stay in chunks a little bit better. I'm one like you I don't care what it looks like in the jar as long as it's food and edible especially if it's meat
I have a question? I was canning Turkey sausage until 3:30 AM I took my batch out. 6 hours later I noticed 1 jar didn't seal. So being out on the counter un- sealed for 6 hrs when I woke up, should I discard it? Can I Re-Can it? Is it still safe to eat? I put it in the refrigerator right away?.
Why do you say that you do NOT add liquid to raw pack chicken, but in another video, you added hot water to raw packed, bone-in chicken (to get bone broth)? Did I misunderstand - please clarify. I'm confused.
I did this method today and looking at the comments, I too am interested in the texture of the chicken pieces. I cooked the bones of the chicken legs in a pot for broth. i deboned them so I could put all boneless chicken in the jars today. It was nice to use the broth to fill my jars. I didn’t put any seasoning in today.
I also have learned a ton of information from you, Lisa. thanks a lot. When I go into the pantry and see my pretty jars of food I thank you and God for the ability to have these jars of ready made food that I actually like. Not like so many of the frozen foods that are available. They look good but just don’t taste good, and have too much salt and other seasonings.
Thank you for educating me so I could have my food on the shelves, for me to eat when I’m ready that cost much less than ready made frozen food.I do enjoy using rotisserie chickens for lots of things.

Thank you Leisa. I think this method looks prettier but it does seem to take longer. I may try this method to be able to compare the texture.
Well it does look nice in the jar, but more work. Thanks for showing the option of hot pack.

How long does it last being canned
18 months is optimum
Yes damaged lids and they don’t always seal. I started using forjars and all have sealed.

Is the time for ugly and hot packed chicken the same 75 pints is it 90 for quarts
Yes
Thank you
Canning season is all year long for me.
Me too
Me 3. Holiday sale prices are the times to stock up on turkeys, fresh (not cured) hams, and all the other applicable items that can go on the pantry shelf. Seems that every season and most holidays have specials, along with the traditional seasons of harvest for fruits and vegetables.
Are Forjar canning lids made in the USA?
Yes
@@bettywhittington9654 According to Amazon, they are made in China. Click on a lid size and then on more product information. I checked several size offerings and the all stated Country of Origin is China.
went n checked on my canned meats, all my corned beef went bad, some hamburger turned white at the top. Haven't opened up yet to dump, will do that tomorrow. Now I'm leary of canning any, hope my chicken is ok, did all correct time. 🤷♀️
Something was not right.
Pressure, time, seals came loose?
If they are sealed and the part above liquid changed color, thats normal.
@@SuttonsDaze its sealed but doesn't look right. I know the time was right, not sure what I did wrong but to be safe will throw it out. Thank you for your reply
How are the lids holding up over the years?
Well, its a new company so years are not an option at this point. But they have held up beautifully for 4 months. Both canning and vacuum sealing. I am very impressed.
@@SuttonsDaze , I ordered some, just in case. So disappointed with balls/kerrs! Have to check the brand new jars, because some of the glass rims have bumps on them and won’t seal. Others have dented lids, like you said
Haven't tried any of the Forjars lids yet.
I would like to know your opinion on Pur brand lids.
I bought some a year or so ago when I could find no others. Hadn't got into them yet as I had other lids to use first.
Thanks for the video.
I have not tried them
How long will pectin last beyond the best by date, Since you mentioned stocking up?
Depends, I use Pamonas Universal Pectin which has no expiration date. Beyond that, its a wish and a prayer
@@SuttonsDaze where do you buy that, please?
I like it hot packed or raw packed. But I have found that I prefer to add a little broth to my raw packed. I just end up with chicken sitting above the liquid, drying out, if I don’t. Why?
I have a question please. I didn't grow up eating home canned food. When I raw packed my chicken the taste was exactly like I opened up a can of chicken. My family is not a fan of that taste. We're using up what I made in things like pot pie where the canned taste gets covered up. My question is if I cook the chicken and then hot pack it with chicken broth will that reduce or eliminate that canned taste?
It's worth a try.
"No harm no FOWL?" lol
Question: i canned my first bone in chicken now, 5 quarts. The seals are good BUT i THINK juice bubbled out of 1 of the jars not sure which one because i can feel the greasy chicken juice on the jars. Not real bad but its on them ...Are they STILL GOOD ?? Seal seems great, look good. 🤷♀️
Yes, if they sealed they are goo
@@SuttonsDaze their sealed and good to go. I can't thank you enough ❤
I boil my chicken Leisa, and use the juice for broth to fill my jars. Is that Ok? I was told not to do that? Thank you.
Yes, that's good
@@SuttonsDaze whew! Thank you!
Absolutely OK. For more info check out The National Center for Home Food Preservation canning chicken
Hope this helsps.
@@oldtimerlee8820 I do, and did. But I was told it would be contaminated….Idk…I didn’t believe it, but then….people get you thinking and then I got worried, so I thought I’d as my Queen of canning….♥️. Thank you Oldtimer Lee…I appreciate your comment…🤗
I have stocked up on my forjar lids. May purchase more. Thank you for sharing this video. I am planning to can chicken this weekend. I actually bought chicken breast for $1.98 a pound at Sam’s where I live. I feel I scored. I even bought Chicken thighs (with bone) for .98 cents a pound. Can those be canned?
Yes they can
Sutton Daze hey, I’m newer to canning, I’ve only been doing proteins. I think I’ve over filled my last batch of raw chicken and a few didn’t seal… my question is I canned them late at night, removed from canner and thought they would be fine . Well a few didn’t seal , it had been six hours since out of the canner. I immediately put them in the fridge and left for work , do you think the meat is alright to eat? Thanks I really enjoy your videos. ❤️
Absolutely, they are good on the counter for 24 hours. Once in the fridge, for a week
What is a years worth of lids?
How many jars to you can a yeat?
Can i can raw chicken thighs with bone in and skin on?
Yes
Are the forjars lids rated for more than one use for canning ? With better quality and more gasket material … what do you think?
If you want multi-use, tattler and harvest guard are your lids
@@SuttonsDaze thanks!
Can you use skin on chicken breast, cut off the bone but canning the skin with the meat ?
Yes you can
@@SuttonsDaze Thank you
Since the canning time would be 75 minutes why would the chicken need to be completely cooked? When hot packing beef it doesn’t need to be completely cooked. I am new at this, so sorry if this is a dumb question.
Hot packing any meat requires it to be par cooked. nchfp.uga.edu/how/can_05/strips_cubes_chunks.html
If you could take a big can of chicken in the supermarket and remove the label and have it in a clear can it would look exactly the same as ugly chicken! When you open it up it shreds it doesn't stay in chunks. I make chicken salad with it but I also make chicken salad with ugly chicken. Any chicken that shreds you are paying a whole lot more to buy it in the store or even to hot pack it. You lose chicken it shrinks and it doesn't shrink to that amount when it's canned raw. You can also make chicken nuggets out of raw pack chicken there are a million and one uses! I think people want hot pack chicken because it looks nicer and looks don't matter when the poop hits the fan!
When you put the chicken and the water in the jars, were the jars hot? How hot? Do I need to keep everything 120 degrees or whatever? I wish I had mom's jars. :) I am going to buy some lids and the canning book. Thank you!
I have a question, when you can chicken do you have to boil it 10 mins when you open it or can you use it cold
You can eat it straight out of the jar
@@SuttonsDaze thank you so much, I've been told it had to be boiled before consuming, I want it for chicken salad...love your videos by the way ❤
@@kittymullins504 When I can potatoes I have been known to eat them cold from the jar. Oh, are they ever good cold just like that, but that is just me!!! LOL!
hello gtsy ive done this befor going to try ugly chicken next
how many pounds of chicken did you start with to get 9 pints canned?
Approx 9lbs
@@SuttonsDaze Awesome. Thank you for the response!
Thanks for doing this one Lisa I know it hurt your soul. I do like to do around of not so ugly chicken there are a couple casseroles that I like to make that I do like the chicken a little chunkier or occasionally some things but since it is chicken and it is already cooked I can use it either way one way or the other and you're right this does take more time and energy so if I've got a free or Saturday afternoon or something I might do this if I don't get it done it's no big deal. But yes like you said if it's hot packed it does seem to stay in chunks a little bit better. I'm one like you I don't care what it looks like in the jar as long as it's food and edible especially if it's meat
All canning jars SHOULD be square!
I have a question?
I was canning Turkey sausage until 3:30 AM I took my batch out. 6 hours later I noticed 1 jar didn't seal. So being out on the counter un- sealed for 6 hrs when I woke up, should I discard it? Can I Re-Can it? Is it still safe to eat? I put it in the refrigerator right away?.
It's good on the counter for 24 hours before you must put it in the fridge or use it
@@SuttonsDaze can it be put back In a canning process with a new lid ? Or should it be used?
I appreciate all your help 😊❤
@@AnneMarieBibby1966 Either /Or If you re-can it, do the hot pack method with added liquid.
@@SuttonsDaze thank you 😊❤
Why do you say that you do NOT add liquid to raw pack chicken, but in another video, you added hot water to raw packed, bone-in chicken (to get bone broth)? Did I misunderstand - please clarify. I'm confused.
