Canning Turkey

Four jars of turkey meat and three jars of broth.  I also froze two large containers of broth.

I had three turkeys and I always put away what is leftover.  I put bones and all in a very large pot and simmer for about an hour or so.  Then I cool it off and carefully separate meat from bones.  Jars are ready in hot water and I let them drain and then I stuff them with turkey and fill in with broth.  All broth goes into jars also and goes into the canner.  It is cooked for 1-1/2 hours at 10#.
The turkeys were:
1-baked with cajun seasonings injected
2-deep fried (which went home with my daughter, I kept the carcass)
3- breast that was smoked with a spicy rub and mesquite chips.
The end flavoring was incredible!
Later, I make turkey & dumplings or turkey noodle soup out of it.
