We show how to pressure can beef stew using a tested recipe from Bernardin out of Canada. Once you get the veggies prepped, it couldn’t be easier! It is a lovely addition to our food storage in preparation for winter.

For onions light a candle and place it next to the cutting board. The flame from the candle absorbs the oxygen that has the chemical that makes you cry.
I have noticed that Vidalia or sweet onions don’t make me cry nearly as much as regular onions. I can make it through a whole onion or more before I start feeling irritation. So I only use sweet onions now for that reason alone.
I truly enjoy your videos. Would you do a session on what is in your long-term pantry.
Hello. Do you think I could replace the potatoes with turnips?
Yum. I cant wait to make this!! Thank you RRHomestead😊
once you peal the onions run it under cold water! no crying then!!!
I dont can so im wondering if you can do all this prep and freeze it instead? Thanks!
Thank you so much to you and your husband for these wonderful videos. I love the details explanation you provide.
Try soaking your onions in water for two hours before cutting. Helps me greatly.
I love hearing the ping of those jars as they seal!!
This makes me want to make beef stew, farmer’s soup and pea soup (Habitant Soup – from Bernardin).
We also like having meals in jars for busy days and every day too.
Thanks for a great video
Hold match in your teeth.the sulfur should absorb the fumes.
Try putting your onions in the fridge. It seems to work for me!!
Vidalia sweet onions do not make your eyes water.
Hi would love to have your recipe. Thanks
That’s funny. I don’t know who writes these recipes. I made some banana nut muffins today that were supposed to make 24 minis or 12 regular size. It made 12 regular size and 24 minis.
My favorite thing to can. Tasty and an easy meal..
I like this easy stew recipe. Thank you for sharing it.
That is beauty in a jar!.
So, if I wanted to leave out the celery, I could substitute the same amount of mushrooms?
I just bought 2 chuck roasts on sale ($4.99/lb, reg. $8.99) that I actually, at first glance, thought were some kind of steaks! The meat market guy said that they cut them small (each of these was about 2.5 pounds) because the larger ones weren't selling. I wonder why?🤔
It just works for me to store my onions in the fridge that prevents my eyes from tearing up. It is probably a bad thing to store onions in a fridge, but I have not noticed a difference in taste.
Why do you cook the ingredients to a boil then pressure can for 90 mins, doesn't that make the veggies mushy?
What if I don't have another pressure canner?
When using a pressure canner do you still do jars finger tight,or you actually tighten them?
I have arthritic hands, all that chopping wouldn't be possible. Wondering if you or someone in comments have a recommendation of a machine that would do this. Pam and Jim have gotten me back into the cooking and canning mode. Wondering what might be good for me. I absolutely love beef stew and would love to can a lot of this. Thanks!
Very nice!
Pam, how would you handle the remaining stew mixture if you only had one canner? Thank you. 😊
Put the onions in the fridge a bit before cutting to get them cold. Cold doesn't put off the fumes.
did you sensor my comment like the liberals sensor people? What happened to the 1st amendment
I see so much dangerous information on various internet forums – I send folks your way anytime they ask for recommendations.
I saw your "test" videos of the Nesco pressure canner and wanted to ask your advice on using it for canning meats and raw pack veggies, (green beans and peas particularly). Any advise you can offer would be very much appreciated. I'll be doing applesauce and a few apple butter pints this coming week as well. Thanks so much!!!
This gives me courage to try canning stews and soups! Tomatoes, green beans and corn are the only things I’ve had any experience with, and freezing stews and soups. But since storms are more frequent now, I think it is time to switch to canning these things for us.
I just made some, can't wait to see how it turns out.
Thanks for this! I use a lit candle nearby and it seems to help with the onion 🧅 fumes.
