We use a vacuum sealer and canisters. I highly recommend a good vac sealer. I also use an American snack master dehydrator to dry fruit meats and veggies. Then I vac seal them.
I've been canning meatballs in tomato sauce, pulled pork in BBQ sauce. I use small jars so we can eat it in a single sitting and not have to refrigerate leftovers.
Thanks for the info.
