Every once in a while, I want sausage gravy and biscuits but I don't want to have to dig it out of the freezer and thaw it so I don't make it. This is genius.

Thanks so much Leisa for standing in for That 1870's Homestead during their family emergency. I have learned so much from you about pressure canning safely. Just goes to show that even at 81 yrs old you can still learn new things. I feel so much better knowing I have things on my shelves to feed us if there is an emergency and we can't get to the store. Bless you.

Had a power surge here in September. It took out my fridge/freezer, water heater, and air/heat. Though I've water bath canned for years, I never graduated to pressure canning. That power surge gave me the nudge to buy a pressure canner and have begun putting my proteins on the shelf. All these recipes have been great inspiration. Thank you

Thank you for all of your educational videos Leisa! You've inspired me so much! My daddy is the one who introduced me to you in March 2022 as I was caring for him in his last days. He told me to watch your videos, learn and get to canning! You are a blessing sweet friend!

I panic about the grid system too. I lived and froze through the Texas grid system failure for 8 days. Hubby and I are in 70's but learned this too can happen to you! This is why the pantry inventory this year was PARAMOUNT to getting my protein shelf stable now, instead of later. Thank you Leisa for giving us courage, knowledge and incentive to can year round.

I'm in Texas too. We only lost power for a few hours here and there. The greatest thing was having beef stew and soups canned up! I just needed to heat a few minutes. I love having shelf stable food!

This is fantastic. Canning ingredients is a life saver! Tonight I had to run our youngest child to a birthday party, so my daughter opened up canned beef, canned potatoes, canned beans, broth, and tomatoes and made an amazing hamburger soup. She was so grateful for the convenience of canned ingredients and had supper on the table in 20 minutes. I’m so thankful for this collaboration, my pantry stability is growing weekly and I’ve learned soooo much!!💗

I adore my meat chopper! Got one at the Dollar Tree, and I loved it so much I bought a spare! It makes cooking any kind of ground meat so much easier. I don't know how I didn't realize ground sausage could be pressure canned. Now that I know I am adding that to my list! Thank you for putting together this Canuary series!

I just paid $4.39 a pound for ground sausage on sale, UGH! So I have canned this and actually mix sausage with ground chuck to make my chili. It is so good. This was actually the first thing I ever canned during Covid when I found your channel. You gave me the courage and now I have helped family members that have canned all their lives and have never canned ground sausage before! So now I can dubb it ugly meat, but it is so good!!!!!!

Thanks so much Leisa for stepping in for Rachel & Todd. That's what family does. Yes we are a canning family that celebrates Canuary!

The real star of this show is the Meat Chopper! I was introduced to one about 5 years ago and it was life changing! Thanks for sharing!

I think I'm the only one that wasn't impressed with the chopper 🤦‍♀️. I think I'm just too old to change my ways. 🤣

Canned sausage sounds like a great idea. I'm still learning and Canuary has been great for instruction and inspiration. Thank you for putting together the collab and to you and ForJars for providing prizes. Honestly, I'd watch anyway, with or without prizes.

Thank you for this VERY important way to make our food shelf stable for be prepared for a grid down situation. I have canned for over 30 years and only started canning proteins in the last couple years. I was raised canning and this was just something our family had never done. I love having shelf stable protein! Thank you for organizing Canuary! It really helps so many of us. We are never too old to learn!

I love your commitment to safety. I really appreciate how you take the time to explain why certain practices are unsafe.

Thank you Leisa for stepping in when needed, so we don’t miss an episode of the very wonderful Canuary. ❤

I haven't been a huge fan of ground sausage until the last couple of years, it's so versatile. Having it in jars would be even faster for meals than frozen.

We are a busy family of 6 and learning to safely can chicken and ground beef has been a dinner time saver! We can hit up the sales and have it at the ready. For some reason I'm still keeping my sausage in the freezer through - why haven't I done this yet?! Thanks for the inspiration on this and all the Canuary episodes!!

Thank you for teaching us the tested way. It helps as a newer pressure canner user to know what is known safe. It gives me a good base line to work off of.

We canned 20 pounds of ground sausage and about 30 pounds of ground beef last summer following your video directions and they both turned out great. I am glad to see this video as it is a good review. Thanks so much for your teachings.

That’s amazing. I hope to one day be as skilled as you and many on here. 😊

Going back over all of these videos to make sure I have all the recipes, and that I've commented on every one of them because I really don't want to miss a chance at these wonderful prizes! I'm canning a lot of protein because it's honestly the hardest and most important thing to have shelf stable as far as store availability and price. Canning my own and saving freezer space has been the biggest priority because other things are cheap and easy to buy, so they are further down on the priority list.

I started canning meat this year as I was also worried about loosing our freezer contents. We have 3 full freezers and I've been trying to can my way through a bunch of meat whenever I have a bit of time available. Thanks Leisa for setting up Canuary and helping out Rachel and Todd when they needed to step away. Thank ForJars, I love your product! I'm almost through my 2nd 100 and have had no failures.

The canning QUEEN strikes again!! All this shelf ready food makes my life so much easier and food security is a beautiful thing. Leisa you never cease to amaze me. Anything I can get out of the freezer gives me peace of mind ❤

Following your videos and trying to learn, I canned my very first large batches of meat-beef chunks, chicken, and ground beef. I was scared to death of losing 40 pounds of meat but EVERY SINGLE ONE sealed and turned out perfectly. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and safe practices. As a newbie to canning, I truly appreciate you and your commitment to this channel. :) I am building confidence in my ability to do this. I also have purchased For Jar lids after such good reviews. Thanks again, from another Lisa

I had to create a whole nother account. It just amused me to see the old name again. I completely understand your fear of doing it wrong when learning. I have only been doing this for a few years and I was absolutely paranoid lol. My first project was broth and I was afraid to use it for awhile because I didn't debubble. One thing that helped me was getting a jiggler because I would sit and stare at the gauge. Congratulations on having every single one seal!

@@lisapop5219 How ironic on the name!! my very first (and only -until the meat)canning session was potatoes because if I ruined them it was not so expensive. It was only semi-successful after a lot of siphoning because I wouldn't leave the temp alone. My fault. After re-processing, it was successful. I waited 6 months before trying again. Thanks for the vote of confidence!

I love that you not only tell how to can ground meat, but why it is not safe to raw pack it. I am a relatively new canner. I was gifted my uncle's old national no. 7 after he passed, and I have been trying to put all kinds of meals on my pantry shelves, so that even when I'm sick, or after I'm gone, I can still be feeding my family the foods they enjoy the most. It goes beyond convenience for me, for sure. It is one thing I can do for my family that will last quite awhile. I'm working on building my year's supply, but knowing how and why some things work and others don't is important so that everything I put up is safe for the people I love.

This collaboration has been awesome. Thank you for hosting it and thank you For Jars for sponsoring it.

We have ice storms here in the midwest where I live. Having canned goods on my shelves makes me very happy to know i dont need to leave my warm house to go panic shopping. Love these vids Leisa!

You are definitely by far, one of the best preppers to really explain the ins and outs of canning. I absolutely love your channel. I only just discovered you a couple weeks ago, been trying to catch up on videos in between prepping, shopping, stacking and preserving. Until recently the only thing I ever canned was vegetables from the garden in summer and fall, then the canner would be put away until next harvest. We'll not anymore, I'm now canning meats, and the canner is being used quite frequently when I find a deal in the meat department. Thank you for being real and teaching us more.

The first time I wanted to make tacos for dinner and reached instead for a jar of ground beef (already seasoned with onion, garlic, and cumin) rather than take a package from the freezer, go through the thawing and cooking process, I was hooked on canning Taco Meat. I see all the benefits of having canned sausage right there beside it. Thanks, Leisa! I have a 4th project coming up! And thanks also to ForJars making all this possible. Lovin' it. 💟

Lisa is so good at teaching the basis and making everyone comfortable canning meat. Thank you Lisa!

Thank you, Leisa. I've only canned meat in recipes, never alone but will do so now. I just love Canuary. Thank you to For Jars, (BEST LIDS EVER!) for sponsoring, and all channels participating. Sending love and prayers to Rachel and Todd.

This has been an awesome collaboration Leisa. I love ingredient canning, I call it my fast food for quick meals. I have a pampered chef meat chopper that has been a total game changer for browning ground meat. Thank you for giving us the approved method for all canning. 💕

Love having sausage on the shelf. It's nice to be able to suddenly decide to take someone a breakfast casserole and be able to just whip it up and head off to bed without the extra time and mesd.

You are seriously a canning goddess! I always learn from you and feel safe with your knowledge. Thanks for filling in for Rachel and Todd ❤ It feels like family to be watching all these Canuary and For Jars videos!

Thank you so much for putting together this collaboration. This is my first year and I have enjoyed watching everyone. I have learned a lot also. I’m going to start canning again this year after being away for 20 years. I lived in the mountains and couldn’t raise a garden without a greenhouse but have moved so I will get back at it. Sausage is a great idea. Thanks again!

Yep, just exactly as the other comments state : as a brand new canner, I am Soooo Loving this Canuary Colaboration !! I, too, am learning a TON , and I too, had thoughts of the grid going down our freezers running out of power from our gas generator, and all that food getting spoiled, enter canning ; having not grown up in a canning family, I am Beyond Thankful for you, for all the contributors, for your content, and for Forjars !!! From CT

We love our chopper tool. Last year I gave everyone on our list one of them and they were all like, “Eh.” I told them to just use it, then talk to me. Now all of them love it so much that they cannot live without them. Haha. Thanks for the great tutorial on this-another good one to put on my to try list (once I get a pressure canner that is).

I just cleaned out my freezer and found 8 pounds of sausage. This video has given me hope for my sausage! Thank you so very much!

I have enjoyed watching all of these lovely ladies work in their kitchens to share wonderful ideas and recipes. Thank you for initiating a sense of community and starting a movement towards self sufficiency. I appreciate the concern of safety especially for people that are new to canning. Happy Canuary!

Thank you for having this wonderful canning collab! I’ve canned the beans that are to help remove the gas factor, excited to see how that turned out! I’ve learned so much this month, my first time watching Canurary! I have sausage in the freezer, love how you presented this video. I’ll be trying this one out asap. You are very much appreciated 🙏😊!

We lost our fridges & freezers after Hurricane Ian and didn’t get power back for 11 days. LOVING learning about making shelf stable foods. Another Canuary item I’m excited to try! Thank you Leisa & For Jars!

Yes, Yes. Another great option for breakfast. Thanks for all the support for us Canuary newbies and returnees. We are a biscuits and gravy home, this will make it easier to choose any day of the week instead of a weekend! Love the videos. I already have put up 102 jars this month and need to order more forjar lids already.👍

Thank you Leisa! Great way to make our sausage shelf stable! Appreciate all you do for the canning world!

Thank you Leisa for putting together such a wonderful canning collab! I'm enjoying collecting new ideas and recipes from folks I'm already familiar with, as well as new folks I wouldn't otherwise see! Bravo, my Dear!

Love you girl! You are my mentor even at 70 we can still learn.

Thank you Leisa for standing in for Todd and Rachel. This video was as always great information which as being new to canning I truly appreciate. I will be using my canned sausage for bicuits & gravy, tacos and a multitude of other recipes. Thank you again.

I’ve never canned sausage Belford. I have done ground beef and making sloppy joe is so much easier with it on my shelf. I’m definitely canning this for my biscuits and gravy.

I appreciate all the knowledge that you share with us! 🎉 I’m really enjoying all these Canuary videos and it’s giving me confidence to do more of my own canning!

I’m starting to think you’re reading my mind. I’m planning on canning ground beef and taco meat for the first time. Sadly I don’t have any sausages. Looking for the perfect recipe to make my own sausages. Thank you !!! I hope all is well with Rachel.

Thank you for always doing safe and approved canning methods. Your ideas of how to use what you can is also wonderful. I’m looking forward to doing this as well as SO MANY other shared ideas this month. I also have the meat chopper and love it. It’s amazing how well it works.

Thank you so much for putting this together. All of you have taught me something new. My hope is to eventually try all of these recipes that everyone has shared. God bless all of you.

Thanks for standing in for Rachel and Todd. I pray anything thing is ok with them. I love having ground beef or pork on the shelf. So much easier to get a meal on the table. Thank you!

Thank you for explaining everything you do. I actually canned a few jars of ground sausage from processing one of our pigs. I ended up seasoning it with taco seasoning since my family loves taco night! I used my ForJar lids and they all sealed beautifully.

Sausage gravy in a hurry when you have unexpected visitors....LOVE IT!!! Thank you again!

As a brand new canner I’m definitely realizing the importance of shelf stable proteins!

Another recipe going into my Canning Bucket list!!.. And definitely Safety first!!. Especially when it comes to families Health!! Thanks Leisa for the collaboration and for offering an awesome end of the month random... along with Forjars!! that pretty amazing!! :)

I never even thought about canning sausage. I didn't eat enough supper so I feel like I can smell this.

This is my first year for watching Canuary. I have never pressure canned meat, but I am inspired!!!!

I've never canned sausage but I have canned ground beef. Yes the meat chopper is amazing. Thanks Leisa for the collaboration.

I have pork sausage in my freezer and I agree about not wanting to rely on the electric grid. I also like the convenience of using already cooked sausage. My kids like pizza on Friday night and this will make pizza night much easier and faster. Thank you for Canuary and teaching us the correct way to pressure can. Blessings!

Thank you for hosting Canuary year after year! I enjoy seeing what everyone else eats and how they prepare their food as well.

Love this collaboration of canners showing us new to canning all the possibilities canning has to offer! Thank you!!

You have such a wonderful way of explaining the canning process and the reasons behind the safety measures! You inspire me to can protein. Thank you

Absolutely love the backslash behind the stove and the way it reflects off the cook top. I love having meat on my shelf to make last minute meals. As a busy family it has saved me several times.

Thank you Leisa. I will be doing this with ground beef. I will be so glad to make my beef shelf stable and reduce my dependence on the grid. Thank you For Jars for sponsoring Canuary! Julia

I canned sausage years ago. I never remember the sage being bitter. Everyone loved it.

This looks great! There's so many possibilities for this. By the time I get all the Canuary things done and canned, it'll be time for Canuary 2024 - there are so many great things to can! Thank you for all these recipes and collaboration!

This is amazing. I had a small chest freezer go out and it was a nightmare to get it all into my other refrigerators. Love Canuary!🥰

I made sausage gravy and biscuits for dinner one night last week. I LOVE the meat chopper, I have wanted one for years and finally broke down and bought one! I will definitely be canning sausage to have a quick meal!! Thank you again so much for putting this collab together.

German here. Pressure canning my ground & browned pork meat and raw packed pork meat while this video of yours is playing. Usually we Europeans use the all-glass WECK-jar system for canning, but I've found that they aren't as good for pressure canning as they are for water bath canning. Reason: The separate rubber gasket often gets pushed out, even when using 3-5 clips during the actual pressure canning. So my go to jars are generic glass jars with twist-off lids. Anything from pint to quarter size. Useable for all canning methods, super-reliable, and cheap, too.

All I can think of when watching this is "sausage gravy in half the time, yes please!" So many things to can, so few jars in my inventory! lol Thanks for sharing!

As always, love your videos! I've not canned pork before but after watching your video I'm going to give it a try! Thanks Leisa for this collaboration and all the others contributing...giving us all the inspiration we need for self sufficiency, love it!

Thank you Leisa for "Suttons Daze"!! You have taught me 90% of all my canning!! I Love watching and learning from those whom have knowledge. You have been so helpful in all my success. Canuary & Forjars has kept me busy this month. I am trying to do every recipe I have been watching.

I like having the meat canned for easy meals. We are always so short on freezer space that canning the meat is more efficient.

Thanks for hosting Canuary 2023. I have never pressure canned before so I am hoping to win the canner and start stocking my pantry shelves.

I’ve also trying to do a freezer clean out so canning the sausage is a great idea. Wonderful for chili and lasagna! Thanks so much for the video and for all your work on Canuary and for introducing us to Forjars!

I never knew you could can meat at all. Opening a whole new world for me.

What a great video. I love the idea of having pork sausage on my shelf. We lost all our food in two freezers during a 4 day outage so I will definitely be doing this! Thank you for all that I am learning during this collaboration.

Praying for Rachel and Todd! I Loved canning my ground sausage for sausage and gravy over biscuits and adding into spaghetti sauce. I love having the cooked meat ready on my shelf. Thank you for sharing!

Thank you Leisa for another great video. We love pepperoni & port sausage on our pizza. Having the sausage on the shelf makes it so much quicker to put together. Time to thaw & can more up!

Prayers for Rachel and Todd!!! ❤️

I just scored $1, 1 pound rolls of Bob Evans sausage recently at our local grocery store, and man oh man, you know I scooped them up by the handful! I ended up with 73 rolls, 73 pounds of sausage in the house. I was tickled pink. Just finished up yesterday, getting it all processed and on the shelf. You did a great job explaining, Leisa! Thanks for that! :) I keep trying to get the word out that I am not a nut for canning my meats, it is so convenient for us, and my freezers are no longer over flowing, which is a great thing going into the new year.

I don't know why I've never thought of canning ground pork. My daughter absolutely loves biscuits and gravy. This will make making her gravy so much easier. Thank you for sharing.

I've canned ground beef , venison , pork for BBQ, stew meat, meat for chili, tacos, and ground Italian sausage for pizza. Hadn't thought of canning breakfast sausage. This is going to be a nice addition to my proteins. I have 3 shoulders waiting to be made into sausage. This will be a good way to add some freezer space. Thanks for adding some ideas for those of us who are seasoned canners. Never to old to learn new ideas.
