Often canning jars will have a raised line (near the shoulder of the jar, if it's the type of jar where the glass curves in at the top) but otherwise I leave a good inch or so of space at the top to allow for expansion.Kirstenhttps://www.farmfreshfeasts.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4689405125611757524.post-32411963222674076352023-10-29T16:46:41.414-07:002023-10-29T16:46:41.414-07:00How fill do you fill the jars yo keep them from cr...How fill do you fill the jars yo keep them from cracking in the freezer?

A couple of good sites to start with are the National Center for Home Food Preservation http://nchfp.uga.edu/how/can_home.html , Ball jars canning website http://www.freshpreserving.com , and Food in Jars http://foodinjars.com .<br /><br />Good luck!Kirstenhttp://www.farmfreshfeasts.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4689405125611757524.post-35808049713804094742016-11-19T11:28:57.714-08:002016-11-19T11:28:57.714-08:00Sharon,

I have to do this next month when my tomatoes finally succumb. I usually get four or five pounds of them, just before the first frost.<br /><br />I still have a few packages of venison in the freezer. This may be the perfect complement to venison sliders. I do a mean pulled venison with slaw and BBQ sauce.
