Canning Raw Packed Chicken and Announcing The Ugly Chicken Cook Off!

My breast's chicken are frozen but my freezer is too full. Can I thaw out and after make your recipe of "ugly chicken"??

Can I use the chicken thighs instead of the breasts? They're cheaper here in Australia than the breast.

I bet you don’t think the price increase is normal any longer.

So you don't add anything to the jars, other than the chicken?

Hey! I looked in my usda canning book and it doesn't say that you can't use thighs as well. It looked like you just used breasts so I wanted to see if you have canned chicken thighs before? I keep boneless skinless in the freezer and am looking to get them shelf stable now since its cold out and its an easy way to heat the house lol. Thanks!

So how long should this stay good? I did batch early 2020 but I opened one smells not off but not right and tastes little bit like metallic but that could be the chicken itself it was free range they normally taste gamey. Idk what do you suggest?

luv your channel!thank you!!

Chicken breasts are non-existent now in my area and I have only able to find thighs at the local grocery stores. Can they be canned with the bone in? Thanks!

I DID IT I DID IT, I made ugly chicken. Thank you, thank you for all you do 🥰🥰🥰

Ooooh… I cant wait for this cook off !!!!! Thanks Leisa, and friends xo

So looking forward to seeing all the recipes! I don't have ugly chicken on my shelf yet, but I want to use up the Costco brand canned chicken. And we're sick of chicken salad, lol!

Well! I have not canned chicken yet. I just got my Instant Pot Max canner two weeks ago. Three weeks ago, I was certified legally blind. SO……I will can chicken, beef, and pork at least. I need EASY meals, and you have convinced me that ugly chicken will make that happen. In April I will be learning cooking skills at our local CenterFor The Blind. By May, I will be ready to rock! Thank you. I really, really need this.

Um, is this cook off in 2022 or was it done in a previous year? I see comments that were made several months ago. Gulp. I should have looked at those first. I wish YT videos showed the upload date. If it was done in a previous year, I will get in my way-back time travel machine because I really, really want to be in on this!

Thank you well explained

In Canada, $1.99 use to be the sale price, now 3.99 is the sale price!

I just put 5 qts in the canner. I packed them really tight ( I didn't have enough to do 6 qts. ) I did leave 1 inc head space so hoping I didn't over pack them and they all seal.

Hello Sutton. I cook meatballs one of them leaked is it still good it’s sealed good. Thanks

4 of my ugly chicken didn't seal! Can I turn around and freeze it?

When you pressure can ugly chicken,how long will it last on shelf?

Did all of those jars seal.?????? Thanks for the video.

Hello there from Australia. I was watching Mike Pratt's canning chicken with the bone in and he played a short video from you (Suttons Daze) about can you easily take the flesh off the bones after being processed. You made a statement that you can, can it (the chicken with the bone in) for less time than for clean chicken. I was wondering what amount of time that was. Thank you for your very informative videos as they work for us in Australia as well. I thought that was an excellent idea to feed ones dog with canned meat...Jo

I just bought thighs for 1.28 /lbs. canning today. Pork shoulder was 1.88/lbs. Higher than last year or even two months ago but I bought it anyway to can. Beef London broil is 3.48/lbs. Cheaper than hamburger.

I was given a mom's mason jar and it's my favorite. I agree, all made should be round.

Hello! Do you can roasted chicken?

My first time canning was tonight. It was Ugly Chicken. As I was removing the pints from the canner one of them fell onto its side in the canning water. It took a minute to get the jar turned upright and out of the canner. It didn’t look like any canner water went into the toppled over hat…….all jars seemed to have sealed. Do you think it will be eatable? Thanks!

WHen the chicken comes out and you show it. It looks like it is boiling inside the jar. Is it boiling or cooking? How do i know if the chicken is being overcooked inside the jar etc??? Thanks for the info

Made my first batch of ugly chicken last night. Cannot wait to try it!

Hello, just wondering how to use the pressure canner with out a dial gauge? I saw on sale this week. It only has the weighted gauge.
Thank you. MerriLyn ❤

How long will this last on the shelf? Thanks you

Hello! I am not sure you will ever see this comment but I canned chicken in quarts. Breast and thigh. It didn't create enough liquid to fully cover the meat. The top exposed piece has turned dark grey in every jar. I am tempted to toss them all. Google says it's ok but not very pretty. Has this ever happened to you ???

Is the grip easy to use with arthritis?

I got a chuckle out of “ so inappropriate “ I know it doesn’t take much for me. Just found you ! So glad I did.

B/S chicken breasts are almost as much as steaks in the Los Angeles area. I couldn't afford to do this.

Can you can chicken thighs the same way? Still fairly new to canning and learning.

You have made me a believer. I am such a southern cook, believe in spices but I get it now. It’s what I know. But now I see that I need to start with the basics. I have 10.5 pounds from chicken in my freezer. It will all be ugly chicken. I’m learning! A bit late but I can always use these recipes with what I have.
G Thank you.

Hi and thank You for a great video i Wunderbaum what are You doing with second round in the canner ? Do You chance to cold water again ?

❤hi,when you get chicken in a can, you can't see through the can...if you could, it would look like it does in the jar.❤😊.

I have a question I truly hope u can answer. I have canned boneless skinless chicken breast, skinless bone-in chicken breast each was AMAZING. YOU OPEN IT UP OH, IT SMELLS DELICIOUS AND TASTES DELICIOUS AS WELL! THAT BEING SAID: I have canned chicken legs and chicken skinless and bone-in. All of it is raw packed no water added done it by the rule. Have done it in quarts and pints. Some reason the dark meat like chicken thighs and legs turns out BAD! YOU OPEN IT UP AND THE SMELL WILL KNOCK YOU DOWN! I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY! IT HAS THIS WEIRD SMELL I CAN'T PUT MY FINGER ON IT IT KIND OF SMELLS LIKE METALLIC. It's not a slight smell it's EXTREMELY STRONG SMELL. Have you ever encountered this before? Do you happen to know what might be going on? Now the only chicken that I have in my pantry is chicken skinless breast, boneless and bone-in. My favorite part of chicken is dark meat and I don't know why this is happening 😭... I hope u can help me figure this out.

I just used a can of raw packed chicken I had made a couple of months ago, and oh, boy, I definitely have to make more. The salad was delicious, just what I was missing in my salad.

How many minutes do you can it for

I just canned some ugly chicken but I evidently didn't get enough raw chicken in my jars since its about half of the jar?? how do I know how much to put in each jar?? Thanks

This sounds like a great set of videos to listen to. I expect to find d lots of ugly chicken recipes. Not that ugly but delicious.

That's what I want is recipe of the meat I can can not wait until May 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Where’s the Beef? My fav. I love meat. Ty

Oh my gosh!! Wish I could find chicken for $1.99 a pound NOW!😢

Oh no! I'm canning for the first time, yes, newbie here and I just realized my first mistake. I warmed my water first. Does that make a huge difference? I watched your video once and did my canning and decided to watch it again and caught where you said you used cold water to start.

Thank you for sharing this! I have been wanting to get some gb on standby besides the freezer. ❤❤

After getting over the initial look of the ugly chicken I have about 60 pints canned. So easy to do.
