Total Time 2 hours 5 minutes

Equipment

  • 1 Pressure Canner
  • 8 Mason Jars

Ingredients
  

  • 3 potatoes peeled, cut into small pieces
  • 3 carrots cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 onion diced
  • 1 flat beef brisket with seasoning packet
  • 3 cups Water
  • 1 cabbage cut into small pieces

Instructions
 

Preparing the beef brisket

  • Trim off excess fat from the beef brisket before starting the canning process.
  • Removing fat helps prevent greasy circumstances that hinder effective vacuum sealing of the lids.
  • Lowering the fat content reduces the risk of fat going rancid in the jars and causing spoilage.
  • Do not rinse the meat after removing fat to retain the flavorful brine that naturally sticks to the meat during cooking.
  • Ensure the canning jars and lids are thoroughly cleaned and sanitized before use.
  • Use a dishwasher or briefly boil the jars and lids in water for cleaning.
  • Maintain a safe and clean environment throughout the canning process for optimal results.

Pressure Canning

  • Use pressure canning to store corned beef in jars for longer preservation.
  • Arrange the jars in a pressure canner, ensuring a secure and efficient process. After that, boil and steam the canner for 10 minutes to evacuate air from the chamber.
  • Maintaining consistent pressure for 75 minutes allows the canner to work its magic. Then, let the canner cool naturally until the pressure drops to zero.
  • Refrigerate jars with loose lids, and store properly sealed jars in the pantry.
  • Wash the greasy exteriors of jars with warm, soapy water.

Notes

  • Ensure there is sufficient liquid in the canner. Inadequate liquid can result in undercooked food or canner damage. Add enough water according to your canner's instructions.
  • Leave recommended headspace when filling jars to allow for expansion during processing. This helps prevent jar breakage and ensures safety.
  • Double-check jar seals after processing. A properly sealed jar should not flex when pressed in the center, ensuring the preservation of your delicious corned beef.
