I have canned a bit of venison in the past several years, but it was always cubed, whole meat. Today I canned sixteen pints of ground venison. It looks like it came out okay, and I'm anxious to give it a try.

Sixteen pints ready to go.

Never had canned ground venison, but I absolutely love frozen ground venison.
You got a nice little stash there.

Id be interested in hearing how the texture is.  I had talked the wife into doing ground venison with seasoning already in it like taco or sloppy joe but we never did.  As canning seems to really bring out salty taste. 

What process did you do?  did you cook the burger off before placing in the jar or did you raw pack?  is it straight venison or did you add some fatty beef or pork to the mix?

Ben,

It is a mix of three parts venison and one part fatty ground beef. I lightly browned it, maybe fifty percent cooked, still a bit of pink.  I put the hot meat in warm jars with about one inch headspace, then added hot bullion to the same level. Pressure canned for seventy-five minutes. I don't usually add liquid when canning whole meat, but the couple of videos I watched, recommended doing it with ground meat. I'll let you know how it is, once I've used some.

I can a lot of deer meat but never thought of canning burger. Thanks Coyote.
