The reason too much headspace is bad is because the processing time to push all the air out is based on the headspace more headspace = more air = it may not all push out = risk. Love your recipes!

Just a tip - (I have a Victorio also.) If you heat your tomatoes up for a few minutes before running them through the strainer it gets the pulp off better so you don't have to put the tomatoes through twice.

That’s what we always did with ours. We put the giant canning pot on the stove with the burner on low and started quartering tomatoes into it. Once they got good and hot we would run them through the strainer.

I loved my Victorio, made quick work of processing our tomatoes. We oven roasted our tomatoes and this machine blew through all the peels and seeds in record time. Thanks for the video!

Rachel....you inspire me...I made some red pepper relish today with my thrift store food ninja...the same store had an 18 quart roaster for 6 bucks...I grabbed it up and can't wait to.slow cook my tomatoes...I don't have as many as you...but...I had to have the roaster like yours!!!!..you and Todd are awesome!!!

I love watching you both work together. He is such a big help for you. I can see by what you have on the table, that you have a lot of work ahead. My garden got started a little later and I don't have as much as you so I have more of a break in between, I didn't get as many tomatoes planted this year as last so that will limit on what I get to actually make with my tomatoes. Next month will be busy when I get to finally harvest my sweet potatoes.

Yum yum yum!!!!!!! We love making home made BBQ sauces!!!!! It's fun to play around with different flavors. Retired corporate chef of 27 years and I love watching yawl in the kitchen. God Bless yawl from central Texas.

There is no such thing as too many tomatoes. I had a lot of "left over" plants after planting up my polytunnel 26ft x 60 ft (hoop house) that I put into a new outdoor garden bed, and they are actually doing really well too, and everything out there is a bonus. All three BBQ sauces sound phenomenal, decisions, decisions!

I LOVE my Victorio Strainer! use it for so many things. huge time saver, I have had mine for 20 years. Still works like a dream

I have a Squeezo Strainer which my mom bought for me 40 years ago. Love it for both tomatoes and apples.

Love that you use the drill! Necessity is the mother of invention.

Guys they sell a motor that you can attach to that unit. Also it works much better if your tomatoes are cooked. I know at this point it’s too late for that. But that’s the best way I have found to use that unit. So glad you’re doing a barbecue sauce video I’ll be making it soon.

It's so good to see people canning again, great video

I'm so happy for your harvest! What a great problem to deal with and making BBQ sauce is great idea for preserving.

I just found your channel and I absolutely adore you two! You remind me so much of my husband and I. You have really inspired my canning journey. I can't wait to start canning my tomatoes from my garden this year!

Great video and I too love how you both work together. I bet your kitchen smelled so good. Enjoy your videos very much. Thank you both for sharing

Rachel, you are adorable and a joy to watch. Thank you for sharing your gardening and canning adventures with us.

I can smell it from here. It's wonderful. Thanks for the recipe.

My 2 favorite all time BBQ sauce canning recipes were Apple Butter Fire Ball , and Peach Habenero Bourbon. Followed by a sweet hot Plum BBQ sauce. All delicious and using what I had. I don't drink hard alcohol, but had some odds and ends here at the house. Great way to use them up. And the sauces were complex and delicious

Long time watcher, have always wanted to comment and say hi, but now I have something maybe helpful to add. For other years when you don't have bumper crops of tomatoes, you'll have to try rhubarb BBQ sauce if you haven't yet. I tried a recipe from one acre homestead (on KZread) and it is so good. And up north rhubarb is way easier to grow than tomatoes! I'm growing in Alaska and trying to maximize my 90 day growing season, and one way I'm doing that is by trying to focus on things that actually want to grow up here. I love seeing all the things you do, you inspire me!

I have a Weston tomato press and I love it! It looks pretty much like your Victorious. Thanks for the bbq sauce ideas!

I really hope I get enough tomatoes to do all the things!! You are an inspiration! Thanks!

It is so hot here that this is the second year without tomatoes here in CA. Some year I hope we have the bounty like you. I can dream

Oh this sounds delicious!!

My hubby makes a bbq sauce with blackberry jam. Amazing. Yours also look soooo good!

They all look so good

Yum!!! I am excited for you and hope to get some tomatoes to do something with this year.

A yummy video, thks for the 3 variations.

How exciting to have so many flavors!!

I’ve watched and enjoyed your videos for quite some time and only recently realized you’re from Michigan. I love the channel!

Great recipe ideas for barbeque sauces. Right now I have loaded tomato plants just hoping they ripen before frost hit. Never really know in Colorado. If all goes well I'll be making salsa. Happy for your tomato harvest. Love your channel.

The cherry sounds good on some ribs and the mustard would be great on wings.

Thank you for drill idea!

Omg, rachel, your videos are coming in good! I'm feeling the same way, buckets and buckets of tomatoes and I'm like, wth do I do with these? I'm canning right along with you, every video sis! Goodness, haha

That sauce is beautiful. I’m having trouble keeping up with everything right now with a harvest in full swing. Good problem to have though. I just started some tomatoes to make this sauce. Thanks for the info and the great idea. So excited try the cherry one. Happy canning.

Super video, thanks for sharing ❤ always look forward to you guys😁

I have 2 Victorious. I love them. Yours doesn't have a guard around the funnel. I can imagine that is messy. I always thought you had to cook the tomatoes. I have never run through raw. I will try that. Girl you need steam canners. They are so much faster. U of WI proved their safety. I got 2 this summer at Fleet Farm and don't think I will ever use my water bath canner again. Thanks for the base recipe. I like to add rhubarb jam to my BBQ sauce. You got a good harvest.

Awesome! Sounds good and looks yummy!

Thanks for sharing! When I can outside I also put my jars into the cardboard boxes... But I lay down a tea towel or some paper towel in the bottom of the box first. I like to reuse my boxes for storage and I know you do too. I was worried if they got too wet, they'd breakdown sooner.

i so agree! Grateful yet overwhelmed! Juicing` taking care of a lot-ha! Healthy Yes!

I was inspired by this recipe and I made it today. I had 7 quarts of tomatoes so I adjusted the amounts, I assumed your large canner held 16 to 20 quarts, I used a combination of honey and brown sugar and 1/4 cup seeded habanero peppers instead of cowboy candy. (Wow - that was enough!). It turned out great! Thanks for your ideas!

Today at the thrift store I bought a roaster and a stick blender for processing my tomatoes into chili sauce and other sauces. Yum the bbq sauce looks yummy. Thanks for all the ideas. I can do it!!

I'm glad to see someone else measures like I do. 😄If you don't have a full jar and there's a large amount of air space in the jar, you run the risk of seal failure down the road. I just did bone broth and had 2 quarts, ham & chicken, that didn't completely fill the jars for the required headspace. I put those jars at the front of the rest of the bone broth in the pantry to use up right away. Just a thought, I don't know if you realize you can use your pressure canner as a steam canner. I've done several videos on this method. Use the required 2 inches of water in the bottom of your AA canner, double or triple stack your jars, precede as if you're going to pressure can and bring the canner up to vent. Once you've reached the point of venting, start your "water bath" time and allow it to vent for that period of time. So if you plan on water bath canning for 20 minutes, allow the steam to vent for 20 minutes and then turn your heat off and allow the canner to cool enough where no more steam comes from the vent pipe. Remove the lid and take your jars out. Saves you from filling the canner up with water. It's nice to see that you are set up to can outdoors as well. I do mine in the garage during summer months. And it's nice when you don't have power. I'm having fun watching you both, and yes, I'm a sub. You work well as a team! Have a wonderful day!

Bbq sauce looks so yummy! 😋Hope you guy's get power to stay on soon. The outdoor stove is a great idea. On my list to get along with a generator.

I have my grandma’s Vitorio😊 It’s so old and works so wonderfully

yet another recipe added to my list for next year!! You guys are A----mmmazing!

My tomatillos are so prolific this year. What do you think about a tomatillo/green tomato bbq sauce? I mean it will still have the vinegar so it should be fine to water bath or pressure can, right?

Yall are such a PRECIOUS couple

Your dogs are so cute licking the juice .

I love my victorio strainer and bought a electronic adapter for it but I love this version because the newer ones are more plastic spout.

I keep looking at Tod's t-shirt and i'm impatient to get mine in the mail 🤩

This video made me think of your video making apple cider vinegar. Which inspired me to do. And inspired me to learn to also make... cranberry, blackberry, blueberry, and raisin vinegars. So since you put vinegar and cherry juice in.... maybe think of making a Double Cherry by making some cherry vinegar? The black and blue berry vinegars were suggested to go in BBQ sauces. Just a thought. My friends call me a mad scientist... brewing, canning and dehydrating, etc. It is all science? right?

I use rosemary pesto to my base so good to put in baked beans.

I have white westies and usually when I'm using my mill they end up with a red dot on top of their heads from cleaning the floor as I'm processing. LOL I've used the same mill for years and it's quite a work out. I've never thought to hook up the drill do it. This year I purchased a large electric mill for myself and I can't wait to use it. I do make quite a bit of tomato juice, but now will be putting up some bbq sauce too. Oh, and I did score a bread machine on a sale page to help me save time making my bread too. Thanks for all the great tips!

Awesomeness

Hmmm- whatever works but I always thought the wide part of the plunger went down - it fits the funnel opening perfectly. I think it pushes the tomatoes through better. Anyway - nice video. Thanks for reminding me about the tomato powder - I forgot that tip.
