I heard they caught a guy at an airport with one today... Bet he would make you a good deal on it. Not even blown up yet.

Unless you are of middle eastern descent and you are trying to bring one into the country thru Detroit from Saudi with pages missing from your passport and a story that crumbles like a house of cards in the wind.

You other guys are too quick for me - takes time for the zeros and ones to get from down here to up there.

Getting to where you can't take your pressure cooker anywhere any more.

My mother, grandmother and great grandmother canned everything they could fit into a mason jar my entire adolescent life and they never used a "pressure" cooker. They did use a very large pot half full of water to heat the jars full of food before sealing the jars with the proper Kerr/Mason lids. How is the pressure cooker used?

I have a 20something quart and it takes forever to get up to temp/pressure. I can do 7 quarts in mine at one time and that pretty much fits our home use/hobby needs.
They say everything happens for a reason.
For me that reason is usually because I've made some bad decisions that I need to pay for.

What you are referring to is known as cold packing, I just did that with a batch of homemade salsa over the weekend. Cold packing is only safe with foods that have a lot of acid like tomatoes or pickles or some fruits, other foods need to be hot packed in a pressure cooker to insure safety.

Do you mean a presure cooker that holds 30 - 40 quart jars? If so WOW! thats' a lot in one cooker. I can venison in what I thought was a large cooker that holds 8 quart jars. FWIW I got all mine by calling into the local radio station's call in for sale and wanted program. A lot of people buy them and then use them once and get rid of them, the most I paid was $20 and they were all $100+ cookers. I guess it doesn't hurt that I live in the town that Mirro was located in that built preasure cookers for years so everyone seems to have one in the basement.
AHF, a pressure cooker is safer than the methon you describe and it makes things like meat extremely tender so you can use poor cuts of meat and get tender great tasting meat.

Thanks for the education. Now I'll try to talk Mrs. AHF into learning how to can.

just wanted to be able to do as many in one batch as possible instead of having to do a bunch of small batches.

If you can find one, Roger, the All American is as good as they get. I bought one (21 quart) on eBay a few years ago for $130.
