It has been years since I canned anything. Last week i started again. 6 quarts beef and 3 pork. I have a small mirro (8 QT) canner that does 3 quarts per load. I did everything correct. 90 minute raw pack at 10#. Seals are good, etc. but with this canner there is no pressure gauge, just the jiggle thing. The food would cook and pressure would build then it got to a certain point the pressure would blow and go back to what I am assuming is the ten pound pressure the weight was set for.
There was not a lot of 'jiggling' going on. I think I am good to go. Everything sealed and looks like it always does. I know they say to restart the process if your pressure goes below the desired setting.. I dont think this happened but cannot be sure. I dont want to poison anyone. Is there any indicators I should look for besides just blindy warming it up and eating it?
Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks. Tiredude
