Bringing Celeste on board was a genius move. A complete newbie asking questions that a seasoned canner wouldn't even think to tell you, assuming everyone already knows that, is the perfect combination. Please bring Celeste on more often.

Celeste is adorable! And she did a such a great job! Asked some really smart questions.

Thanks to Celeste for being our newbie representative. Easy to come back to this video and rewatch as I begin the canning journey.
Thanks very much Pam and Jim. Much appreciated.

Oh my goodness, perfect timing! Welcome Celeste! I just canned Chicken yesterday for the first time in my All American 921. Canned 6 pints, raw packed, for 75 minutes at 10lbs of pressure. Followed all instructions to the tee in my USDA Guide book. One of the jars didn’t seal, but the others look good. I am still struggling with getting over my own nervousness of opening a jar weeks or months from now! However, these videos are so extremely helpful for us newbies! Thank you!

I've been canning for 60 years and I still learn new things about it from your videos. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

Isn't this a fun video! I always love it when Miss Pam says "I am so excited!" because she truly looks so excited 😊
Jim is always finding such great deals 👍

I am so glad you invited Celeste . She actually asked questions I have thought of while watching your videos. It was a great help.

PRO TIP: As you're building pressure in your canner, remember to dial back (lower) your heat as you get closer to your desired pressure. Newbies often will maintain the same initial high heat until they reach their desired pressure, then they'll lower the heat but will be surprised to see that the pressure is still rising. That can lead to panic and fear, possibly leading them to do more drastic or dangerous actions like removing the canner from the heat source without lowering pressure, or removing the pressure regulator. Both of which can lead to siphoned liquid or broken jars.

Great to have a newbie on board because they will tend to ask the simple, basic questions that we can tend take for granted.

I am getting the nerve to start canning. I have everything to start. Just a little scared. Watching you is giving me a big boost to start. Thank you!

Celeste is adorable and I hope she returns in future videos! Loved her questions. Thanks Pam! ♥️.

My favorite video so far!!! As a woman about her age, I felt like I was being taught and mentored alongside her. So many of us long for Titus 2-like mentorship. In a way, this video satisfied that longing to be taught by godly and wise women. God bless you for soldiering on in this important work!

I want to personally thank you for all the videos. I bought a $40 dehydrator at Ollie’s and it hasn’t stopped working since I bought the dehydrator. You have given me such confidence to do these things. Keep up the good work.

[jeffriffel]

She was great. Having a rookie to ask questions will be helpful for all viewers new to canning. 👍👍❤️❤️❤️

[cstone]

I remember how nervous I was on my first-time pressure canning. The more I canned the less nervous I was. Great job Celeste!

[GBucPigBob]

#BringBackCeleste. She asked some great questions and really represented all of us Newbies very well.

I truly love you Pam.I feel so safe and secure with all I learn from you.Thank you and Jim for all you do for us out here ❤. I too love science.

[deborahnarendorf]

I always learn something from you. I am a retired RN and am a strong believer in sanitizing food prep surfaces. However I had never hear of Steramine. I have ordered it. Thanks for the tip.

[cherietucker]

I am just a little jealous, Celeste! I would love to spend the afternoon with Miss Pam learning to pressure can meats. I watch her videos and always learn something new.

[monikaforster]

I had a super good laugh in regards to the “kitty litter scoop”. Celeste, you were a wonderful guest! I have never done meat in the pressure canner! I am so going to try this!
