Success!!! I was afraid to try, but I did it! I have canned non acid veggies before, but never meat. My grandma used to can meats all the time and now I am brave and will venture out to other meats. Chicken is next! Thanks Sharon, this was so easy and turned out great!

I've always wanted to try to can beef, and am glad I found your recipe. It was easy to follow, and they all turned out beautiful. I made the hot broth and thought that helped to flavor the meat in the jar. Outstanding!
