be sure you have the pressure CANNER not just a pressure COOKER if you are jarring up meats. (Some can do both) Canning and cooking are different procedures.
Dont be afraid. Its time consuming but once you get the hang of it you will be so proud of yourself.
'but they're also realizing that the government can (and likely will) come for them next'. - Came here to say that.
Just thinking - If I was a business I'd RUN from NY state as fast as I can. They will chip away at the business until there's nothing left. Never forget they tried to take Trump properties
If I was the 'average guy' I'd leave too for my family's sake. Considering victims are jailed but criminals freed. I actually know someone charged with a crime they didnt commit because the other side has family that works for the judge.
Its not meant to just walk away and hide, but leave them the results of their actions.
Yes, I love pressure canning meat - or anything else. Heat and pressure kills any bacteria. Much safer than water bath canning. Just get a Ball canning book and follow instructions to the T. Dont try to hurry the process. I can plain meats, stews, meaty soups, even bacon, burgers, sausages. I dont have access to meat as you do so I buy from grocer when on sale and when I have a good bit I can it because I also worry about power outs. Happened to me in the past.
Lots of youtubes on it. My favorite is Rose Red Homestead because she explains the why and always takes no chances with her canning.
BUT in your case you need a pressure CANNER for meats or low acid foods not a pressure COOKER.
As for rotating, I do it with everything anyway but pressure canned meats are safe for AT LEAST 10 years. Mine never sit on the shelf that long.
I do hope you and anyone else here give it a try. I really think you'll be happy. Feeling a bit more safe and secure these days.
Consider canning your own. A lot of those packaged foods way too salty or low calorie. Though I do have some but when I can my own I can what we like.
My plan was - what do I go to the grocery store for? Meat, dairy, produce. So I watch for sales, make double/triple and can it myself.
Where are the hospitals? The doctors' offices? Schools or churches?
I suppose you cant buy more groceries than would fit into 2 bags. After all you have to carry them home in 15 minutes.
In the old days, places like this were called ghettos.
BUT...... Pelosi could get her hair done Fraudchi could go to ballgame with 2 friends (no one else allowed in) Gruesome could go to lavish dinners The Big O had a huge birthday party No distancing or masks for BLM rioters
All that is OK, right?
