Welcome from Washington state!

Well I'd reported that fraudulent site selling canning lids for a horrendous amount while pretending to be Ball back when it was brought to my attention. I actually got a reply back from Ball today. The website is gone now.

The canned crab is supposed to be kept refrigerated. I'm not sure why, but it warns to on the cans and ia sold in the fridge at the store.

Oh that would be a good deal. I'd stock up on however many cans would fit in the fridge. I still have 2 cans left from the $3 off they had at Costco. Now I need to make some crab cakes.

Chuck roast was on sale so I smoked one for dinner. I think it turns out better than the oven.

Froze, not canned, but put up 4 lbs 6 oz of cleaned razor clam meat. That will give 4 meals of chowder. Or we'll batter and fry them. Good any which way. I'll have to look up canning it in pints. The long time during processing time will get it past the tough stage.

It's easier to just use fat strips, or bacon, when larding. I prefer rendered fat as it fully dissappears. I have used butter before. It can get messy so make sure fat is very cold for best results.
