After 20 years of growing collards, today I am canning them for the first time. No more freezer full of veggies. I am a retail butcher by trade and value my freezer space for vacuum sealed meat. Years ago I grew 4 - 30 ft rows of collards to sell to soul food restaurants. No more restaurants, but still grow 2 - 20 ft rows of collards. They are easy to grow and produce bigger and better quality leaves then store bought. Thank you Mamma T!
I just now done 6 quarts of collards, they are absolutely beautiful in the jars. My jars are full and beautiful. Have never been much on seasoned collards as we love them fresh and cooked with smoked neck bones but I must say these smell really good. I added chicken broth, garlic ,crushed red pepper and the onion. Im gonna have some happy kids lol.
Glad to know that I'm not the only one who cans collard greens. I remember one time, I canned the greens with some smoked neck bones, and the bones were soo soft, you could EASILY chew them. :-) I LOVE the convenience of having them anytime I want without having to go through the WHOLE production of cleaning and cooking them EVERY SINGLE TIME! LOL!!! Just take out a jar, heat it up, and it's GOOD TO GO!
I hear you on that! it is a long process cleaning them and all but when all that part is over i love it too the convenience of having them in my pantry so what i'm going too do is start canning them every saturday. because those greens go quickly in my house my adult kids come and shop at my place. i appreciate you watching my channel and supporting.
Heya! Great instruction. I’ve been canning collards for 5 years. I use smoked turkey legs or wings. For something that takes soooo long to cook and tastes soooo good, canning them really makes it a cinch to eat and enjoy whenever you crave it!!
I'm canning mine for the 1st time; using smoked turkey as well. Question- how long did u process urs? did u use the water from ur meat in ur jars? and did u cook ur onions and garlic b4 adding to the collards (I dont want mine to become soggy over time, and thx!
I am fortunate that my son grows an organic garden and I pick all I want. I fold the collard green leaf in half and take a knife and slice the stem off and leave it for composting. When I pick a garbage bag full, I saw someone put them in their washer on the gentle cycle to wash them with a couple drops of soap and then add vinegar to my rinse cycle. Works GREAT, saves a lot of work. Thank YOU for your recipe and walk through the entire process. I never thought about putting the rings in the boiling water, helps to seal better.
thanks for watching. and i grow my own vegetables and when my family has eaten all the collards that i have grown and canned i will go buy some from the market. hey if you like washing your greens in washing machine and it's easy for you that is wonderful. but for me i wouldn't hear of that i would be thinking about all the germs in that machine and my mind would wonder off with that.
I love you lady!!!! A little hint for others is adding white vinegar to the wash water REALLY HELPS getting dirt grit grime & pesticides off your greens when washing them...you crack me up cause I wash them 6 to 8 times as well...hugs & thank you!!!
I hope you're still canning! This looks so good! And you definitely saved a ton of money, especially these days! Those jars would go for over $2 each today! Getting ready to can some greens tomorrow!
I made my first batch of greens using your recipe, several months ago. I never got to can them, because my family ate it all up. Now I'm back, because it is time to have another go, this time, with LOTS more greens! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for this video! I’ve been canning for about 5 years or so but never done greens with meat in them. So I needed this. I gotta get my New Years greens cooked and canned in half pints since there is just two people in my house. I always say my canned stuff is like having a healthy and cheap McDonalds in my cabinet. When I get home late and we are hungry I can open a jar of chicken and some vegetables and we’ve got a good dinner. I’m definitely subscribing. Thanks again!!
I'm just getting interested canning and since collard greens are fresh in the fields I thought I would start with them. I'm so happy to find your channel. Thank you for sharing your skills and knowledge.
Bona Appetit! Thank You! When I first started gardening, I grew tree collards, I'm growing collards greens this season. I like to add smoked turkey necks, and drum sticks, I cook it in a 5 liter pressure cooker. My Grand Mother, who raised me, she would always cook great meals. I remember all the holiday special dinners, and especially on New Years day, we would meet and we would enjoy black eyed peas, (Hoppin Johns), corn bread, hush puppies, dumplins, and of coarse collard greens, I remember her story she shared when ever she made her collard greens, my father would fight with his brother over who would get her pot liquor. We had a apple tree and she would make a delicious apple pie, and her lemon meringue pie was her specalty.
Just a safety precaution, my ex worked for our local cooperative extension. They said never put food stuff in a garbage bag because they have chemicals in them for bugs and smell. I would research this to be safe.
Not only does it save tons of money, it'll taste better than any can that you can buy at the store! And you know what's in it! This is my first year canning greens and I'm gonna use your recipe! Thank you for sharing!!! ❤
Another thing I like about you..your videos are so real...just like you and me are in the kitchen together and you are teaching me face to face. I wish more people was like you.
Finally I have found someone canning greens...LOL. I can't believe I just now found your channel. I'll be growing collards and turnips this fall, and can't wait to try this. Thank you SO MUCH for this video!
Hi MomaT so glad you're feeling better! I grew up around canning & freezing but other than snapping beans or peeling apples & pears I really didn't participate hands on...wish I did becauae I definitely believe it's the way to go! I do know a little bit about how to freeze veggies by blanching them! You're awesome at what you do! tfs 👍😃
Thanks it seems the infection didn't want to let me go! i was drinking way too much soda and sparkling water and no plain water. i do freeze some things as well and their is nothing wrong with that except when i loss power i lost hundred's of dollars of meats and from that point on i started canning, it was a hard lesson to learn. so thank you so much for watching! you are awesome as well. have a very blessed day!!
Great video, I've only caned tomatoes, green beans, corn, potatoes, and tomato juice. Now I'll be canning some collards, turnips greens and some spinach. I love them with cornbread too!
Thank you Rick i really appreciate you watching. i hope too can me some green beans this year out of my garden buckets my fingers are crossed lol' canning greens make my life just that much more easy.
Just found your site. Really like it. I have been canning for a loooong time. I also cook greans, beans, meats, squash, tomatoes, well I guess I should just say everything. I love canning because it is so good as so ready. Open, heat and eat. I do roast and everything. I however learned that when pressure cooking, it isn't necessary to have your jars hot, nor heat your lids. I have never heated my rings. I take them off after 24 hours after they have sealed. I wash them before and after they have canned. To me, there really isn't much you can't can. I have done hamburger, sausage and everything. I love it.
i'm just a clean person and i will triple wash things so every person have their on way of doing things and i agree with you i can everything and love the term eat out but it's eat in. lol
Hi just ran across you. Thanks we are doing a garden and have the pressure cooker, books and a lot of mason jars to can our food. I wanted to can green oh my so glad you showed me how 🤩
I didn’t know you could can them but am headed to the kitchen now- I have got them off the stems and washed them 7 times now! Do I need to add sugar to these?
Mamma T..Very good video..Your instructions were spot on..if folks follow what you did exactly..they will have a perfectly safe and delish jar of greens..now I gotta go hunt me up some greens for canning..or better yet..what time is supper? You and yours Have a good one...Doug
Thank you so much for this video. It is exactly what I was looking for. Collards are my favorite greens and I've just begun learning to pressure can. I am glad you are feeling better.
You are so welcome! and i appreciate you for watching, and collards are my favorite greens as well . keep learning to can because its the best thing you can do for you and your family.
I canned the Collard greens and they turned out beautifully. I processed them 75 minutes and they did lose some juice for some reason but over all I am very pleased..
Mamma T, those look absolutely delicious! I'm pretty new to canning, but I've done chicken, chicken bone broth, tomatoes, black-eyed peas, potatoes & carrots, and balsamic onion jam!! I'm going to can green beans tomorrow, and you've got me thinking about collard greens, now!! Yum, yum!! Great video! Thanks!!
Thank you Joanne Donovan you should can some collard greens there is nothing like your own Collard greens and beans and a flock of other foods it just taste better. i appreciate you watching my videos.
@@MammaT Hello! Yes, I did can them, got 36 pints. I followed your recipe and I liked them quite a bit. I've never had "southern style" before, just cooked them up with bacon or something as I've only grown them a few years. Your instructions are for sure the best on TH-cam. :) I watched several and saw right away you were the woman to follow. :) I hope you and yours are staying safe.
Yummy! My mom used to cook the best collard greens. I do have a question though. Why is there more water in the second canner full? I noticed it was almost over the jars.
Beautiful. I "almost" stopped looking when you only did a single stack on the first load (just because of the time it takes to cool down the canner and process each load). You totally kicked butt though when it came to the 2nd round. Canning is infectious. My youngest, when I first canned green beans, asked what was in mine and I said "green beans, water, and salt", and he promptly threw away every other can of green beans that had more than 3 ingredients.
Canning is infectious! i just love doing it! and your youngest son was so right to throw out the store bought can green beans Lol!! thanks for stopping by my channel i appreciate it. tfw
I sub'd to it. Looking forward to seeing what you do. I "got in trouble" because the husband says that I've "canned enough", however, 500 jars ain't gonna last a family of 4 a year, so he's just gonna have to suck it up and build shelves! Have you tried the chicken pot pie recipe in the new Ball Book? It's AWESOME
Thank you! maybe if you talk him into making more shelves you can make a video on it, and wow that is a lot of jars you can, you just inspired me to do more. and no i have not tried the chicken pot pie in new ball book i'm going to buy the new ball book this weekend. what are some of the things you have can?
I have blackberry jam, black & blue jam (it's to DIE for - tastes like a sweet tart), vegetable soup (2 different kinds), bone broth - chicken and beef, tomatoes of all sorts, salsas, corn relish, a bunch of dried beans, and a bunch of other stuff. It's pretty crazy. Since Thanksgiving, I'm down about 50 jars. I'll pick up a bushel of green beans from Sprouts when they hit .88 a pound, and do 32 jars at a time - oh yeah, and I have about 80 jars of applesauce right now for eating and baking with :). My new favorite though? Yellow mustard. EASY PEASY and so much better than store bought.
Well i definitely need too catch up because my grown kids come and grocery shop and i need too get going here. but it all taste much better then the store bought stuff. did your hubby give in too new shelves?
Jewelottica thank you!! and i mix turnip greens in my collard greens also. my great aunt made hers this way and she was 98 years old when i learned from her.... tfw i appreciate you.
Thank you Mamma. I am so happy to have found your channel. It is good to know you are feeling better. Throughout you mentioned cornbread. I need a good recipe. Since Three Rivers is no longer available any longer, I miss good cornbread. Could you do us a video? Thank you again for this and your other video's, I am watching them all and taking notes. Love to you, Patty From Tennessee
Thank you Bliss and yes i love me some greens also! it took a couple of hours two pick and wash them and i had help separating the bad greens from the good greens! a lot of work but well worth it.
Definitely no easy task I Can Only Imagine I wish I can go and pick fresh greens this is the time when I miss my g ma she used to have a garden and we used to be able to get fresh greens and other vegetables
Yes grandma's are missing but you can learn to grow your garden just remember what granny did and keep trying til you get it down i grow in pots and buckets and i did pretty good this year except my corn. take care bliss and have a great day.
Know what I would love?[and I love everything you do] I know that you can save money by canning if you have a garden, but do you think that you still save money by buying sales and canning? and hhow inexpensive to make it worth it
Hi Antique Autistic that's a good question so let's break it down a little i will start with flour well you see my store have a pound for $.79 well that look like a great buy but if you buy 50 lbs of it the price would be $39.50 now take my bulk buying when i buy a 50 lbs sack of flour cost me 11.00 so you see i could buy 150 lbs of flour and still would pay less then their sale price! which my price would come out to be 33.00 for 150 lbs I hope this help. tfw
Hi enjoyed your video. If you take your 15pound pressure gauge off as soon as it hit zero, your lid may not get stuck....and also before you run the canner, you should grease the lid/canner at the metal/metal contact...
We have tried collard green but they where nasty. Just the greens with slt and pepper. So the next time I am at the store I'm going to try a small bunch for dinner and see how it goes. foot note Vaseline around the top will help stopping sticking on the all American canner :) will subscribe and let you know about the taste KEEP CANNING!
Your welcome! those greens are pretty good when you don't feel like cooking them yourself! but the last time i bought some they had sand in them still as if they didn't wash them enough so i started canning my own plus if i can greens every other weekend i would have enough for a whole year just from me canning a couple of months. thanks for watching....
Thank you pjb31apb you should can them up! i canned fruit cocktails that i cut up myself i can things on a daily but i don't film it when i should! tfw i appreciate you
yes just cook the greens a bit longer and then cut your beets up and put them in jar and cann them with the greens according too your town 10 or 15 pounds of pressure for the time specified for your potatoes. thanks for watching.
One more thing: the first thing I ever canned was fresh green beans. I learned the hard way that removing the rocker too soon can siphon all the juice out of your jars. So in addition to burning you, cracking your jars, etc, it can also make your stuff gross. Lol!!!!
If I bring beans and corn bread, can I come over for dinner? Lol! Thank you for posting this. Commercially canned greens have way too much salt for me. I can’t wait until next fall. I’m canning me a big box of greens. Yum!
Lol! yes you may come over for dinner. i agree with you on too much salt in store bought canned greens i hope you enjoy your canned greens next growing season that's if you can keep them on the shelf. Lol! they don't last that long in my house my family eat them quick as i put them in pantry.
I have never bought a can of greens that I liked. Nothing like homemade greens that was canned by home canner. Do you boil your jars after you washed them. Love your video :-). I have never canned anything except what I did in home economics class in school. But, I have been around a folk that did do canning. I just never got into it
Thanks for watching. and i did put oil on the rim off my lid but it still get stuck. you should try it because it's delicious and save plenty of time for next time you want too eat them. my greens never stay in my pantry very long i have adult kids and my house is the store Lol! and i love collard greens as well.
After 20 years of growing collards, today I am canning them for the first time. No more freezer full of veggies. I am a retail butcher by trade and value my freezer space for vacuum sealed meat.

Very enjoyable video. Made me hungry! I'm canning my collards this week.
did you can your greens and if so how did they come out?
@@MammaT Hello! Yes, I did can them, got 36 pints. I followed your recipe and I liked them quite a bit.

I am sooo hungry for greens now! Can’t wait to can some!
QUESTION?? Can you fry your bacon first?
And could you use smoked ham hocks or smoked turkey legs & wings???
Yummy! My mom used to cook the best collard greens. I do have a question though. Why is there more water in the second canner full? I noticed it was almost over the jars.
Love collards!
Enjoyed your video!!! Thanks!
Hey Moma T. I’m planning on canning some mustard greens. Thanks for your help.

Thank you Mamma. I am so happy to have found your channel. It is good to know you are feeling better. Throughout you mentioned cornbread. I need a good recipe. Since Three Rivers is no longer available any longer, I miss good cornbread. Could you do us a video?
Thank you again for this and your other video's, I am watching them all and taking notes.
Love to you,
Patty From Tennessee
Thank you Patty Mier for watching my videos and sure i will do a video on great cornbread.
Great news, Three Rivers Cornmeal is available again. Cornbread and collard greens....whoo mamma.

I just fixed me a mess of mixed greens. I had 8 pints I can't wait for cold weather.
Love this! Thank you for sharing! I am planning on growing lots of collards this year and had a hard time finding someone who regularly cans it. Yay!
Glad it was helpful!🙂
You Remind me of my grandma when she was younger fr fr she had the same hair style an red lipstick always cooking in the kitchen lol
Love that! i get that a lot Lol! thank you for watching.
thx so much for this video! Q- my altitude is 10. Should I process for 70 min as well?
75 minutes per official guidelines for pints and 90 for quarts to kill botulism.
Oh I sure wished I had found this last week. I canned my first collards last week but I sure did not season them well nor did I pack the jar. :(
Can a little bit of baking soda be added to the greens? Or would this cause any problems? Thanks!

Thanks for the sub! and like i will do the same.
welcome back!!!! I luv greens....I never knew they could be canned how long was the cleaning process
Thank you Bliss and yes i love me some greens also! it took a couple of hours two pick and wash them
and i had help separating the bad greens from the good greens! a lot of work but well worth it.
Definitely no easy task I Can Only Imagine I wish I can go and pick fresh greens this is the time when I miss my g ma she used to have a garden and we used to be able to get fresh greens and other vegetables
Yes grandma's are missing but you can learn to grow your garden just remember what granny did and keep trying til you get it down
i grow in pots and buckets and i did pretty good this year except my corn. take care bliss and have a great day.
Excellent teaching! Just found your channel. 😍
welcome too my channel and Thank you. and i appreciate you watching.
Mamma T
Your so welcome.
Know what I would love?[and I love everything you do] I know that you can save money by canning if you have a garden, but do you think that you still save money by buying sales and canning? and hhow inexpensive to make it worth it
Hi Antique Autistic that's a good question so let's break it down a little i will
start with flour well you see my store have a pound for $.79 well that look like a great
buy but if you buy 50 lbs of it the price would be $39.50 now take my bulk buying when i buy
a 50 lbs sack of flour cost me 11.00 so you see i could buy 150 lbs of flour and still would
pay less then their sale price! which my price would come out to be 33.00 for 150 lbs
I hope this help. tfw
glad your feeling better i remeber eatting canned food when i was little. girl i use to love the pear preserves tfs we are not going no way
Thank you Tiyan!! yes pear preserves are really delish i appreciate you tfw.
Your welcome
Hi enjoyed your video.
If you take your 15pound pressure gauge off as soon as it hit zero, your lid may not get stuck....and also before you run the canner, you should grease the lid/canner at the metal/metal contact...
Thanks for the tip! but i did grease my lid and canner but i think it has something
to do with my high elevation I'm in the mountains.
I REALLY LIKE THIS.. this is al new to me.. xoxo JB
Thank you for watching! i can because it save me money.
We have tried collard green but they where nasty. Just the greens with slt and pepper. So the next time I am at the store I'm going to try a small bunch for dinner and see how it goes.
foot note Vaseline around the top will help stopping sticking on the all American canner :)
will subscribe and let you know about the taste KEEP CANNING!
wow, I have never seen your channel ever before. it looks good.
Thank you Tammy Henderson and welcome too my channel.
Where do you buy veg. In bulk? I would love to buy collards and turnip greens also in bulk.
try your local market.
Very good MammaT!! I love your chanel! Like 14
Thank you! i appreciate you watching, and have a great day.
This is great! Thank you 😊
New subscriber here. Thank you for this much needed video.
Thanks for subbing! i will sub as well and thanks for watching
greens is a wonderful vegetable to have in the pantry.
TFS!! I needed to see this because I buy Glory canned greens🌞💜👍
Your welcome! those greens are pretty good when you don't feel like cooking them yourself!
but the last time i bought some they had sand in them still as if they didn't wash them enough
so i started canning my own plus if i can greens every other weekend i would have enough for a whole
year just from me canning a couple of months. thanks for watching....
I Water bathed my collards, do you feel thats ok?
Welcome back!!!! I am thinking of pulling out the camera this weekend. I have pineapple, oranges and grapefruit to can up...#youinspireme
Thank you pjb31apb you should can them up! i canned fruit cocktails that i cut up myself
i can things on a daily but i don't film it when i should! tfw i appreciate you
Mamma T good day to you , do you have any suggestion on how to can beets with the greens together ?
yes just cook the greens a bit longer and then cut your beets up and put them in jar and cann them with the greens
according too your town 10 or 15 pounds of pressure for the time specified for your potatoes. thanks for watching.
Hey Momma T!!! Watching you in November 2022!!!
One more thing: the first thing I ever canned was fresh green beans. I learned the hard way that removing the rocker too soon can siphon all the juice out of your jars. So in addition to burning you, cracking your jars, etc, it can also make your stuff gross. Lol!!!!
Hello Mamma T, Thanks for the upload, a wonderful video my dear friend, all the best, john
Hi my friend john i appreciate you and thank you for watching.
If I bring beans and corn bread, can I come over for dinner? Lol! Thank you for posting this. Commercially canned greens have way too much salt for me. I can’t wait until next fall. I’m canning me a big box of greens. Yum!
Lol! yes you may come over for dinner. i agree with you on too much salt in store bought canned greens
i hope you enjoy your canned greens next growing season that's if you can keep them on the shelf. Lol!
they don't last that long in my house my family eat them quick as i put them in pantry.
I live in Washington State (native Tennessean). Not a huge collard-growing area. Might have to hit up my produce buyer friend for a case in the Fall.
i'm in Washington state as well! but i was born in Texas. so i know what you mean.
thanks for the video
O Gee thank you for watching! i appreciate it!
I have never bought a can of greens that I liked. Nothing like homemade greens that was canned by home canner. Do you boil your jars after you washed them. Love your video :-). I have never canned anything except what I did in home economics class in school. But, I have been around a folk that did do canning. I just never got into it
Thank you for watching my video and yes i boil them and wash my jars the next day as well
i just don't show everything in sake of time.
Where do you get your greens from I like bulk
i LOVEEEEEEEEE your hair!
Thank you. and thanks for watching.
keep it up momma T, your fabulous!
Thank you Terrance for watching i really appreciate it.
and thank you for the compliment.
Thank you
Yor forgot to oil tbe lid a little.😊grest video tnough. I'm going to try this! Love collard greens.
Thanks for watching. and i did put oil on the rim off my lid but it still get stuck.
you should try it because it's delicious and save plenty of time for next time you want
too eat them. my greens never stay in my pantry very long i have adult kids and my house is
the store Lol! and i love collard greens as well.
No need for oil.
What is the brand and model number of the pressure canner? Thanks.
How was the texture? Are they soggy? What about the taste?
the texture was very good! and no they where not soggy! and they taste amazingly good.
How long can you keep a can before it goes bad? Please and thank you!
well it's just like anything else in a can a good year but i never make it that long
my family eat them pretty quick.
