Modular aquaponics systems are making aquaponics accessible to universities, small business, and individuals who want to provide real value in the form of organic fish and vegetables to communities and their families. Plug-and-Play aquaponics systems allow people to set-up abundant food-producing aquaponics farms in their backyard or even indoors. Indoor aquaponics is a growing trend.

Pressure Canning Pork Chops and Hamburger Patties with Cream Soups

Ready to try something new? Some people think you can't can meats with cream soups but as long as you pressure can them for at least 90 minutes and they seal they are fine and very delicious. This is an old video that I had music too and I removed the music to meet YouTube's rules and am reposting it. The only thing we did not like was the canned ground beef by itself. The texture is very different and my family didn't like it. A lot of people do but we didn't. I won't can that again but I will can pork chops and hamburger patties in cream of mushroom soup over and over again.

Canning Raw Meat with a Pressure Cooker

We canned 10 pint jars of raw ground beef. It took 11 minutes to steam, 8 minutes to jiggle, then the standard 75 minutes. 40 minutes to cool down.

We had test-canned two jars the previous month. We opened one a couple of days and it tasted great! Very moist and tasty; way better than fresh meat fried on the stove!
