Tips

  • You can use any cut of meat; processing time remains the same.
  • Ensure vegetables and potatoes are packed down tightly.
  • After debubbling, top off the broth again to maintain headspace.
  • Wipe jar rims with vinegar before adding flats and rings fingertip tight.
  • Processing time for quarts is 90 minutes; for pints, it is 75 minutes.
  • Rebel water bath time is 3 hours.
  • Processing times are always at 10lbs of pressure if at or under 1000 ft elevation. Anything higher needs longer processing times + potentially more weight.
