Another canning adventure

ELK!!! A friend of Luke’s got an elk a few weeks ago and wondered if we would be interested in canning some. She gave us the jars, and the meat. We just had to put the meat in the jars and then pressure can them. It was pretty easy. One jar didn’t seal so we made it into taco meat and had tacos for dinner. Not bad. Not bad at all.

These pictures look gross---the flash made the meat look much darker. We made 21 quarts so far and this weekend will probably do at least that many again. Elk are BIG animals.
