I just checked the cans that were made on 09 January 2014. The chili is still holding up with no popped lids. I ate one a couple days ago and there wasn't any loss in quality that I can tell. On that batch, I used Mexican peppers and should have cut off the stems.
Today, I'm canning pork. This is my second attempt, but the first with the pressure cooker. The water bathed ones didn't last. Between that and chicken, I believe that I lost 11 cans to contamination?

The Pressure canner needs to have it's #8 O-ring replaced before each canning session. I tried to re-use one, but it was warped and was leaking pressure from the pressure guage hole.
Today, I made chili with 3.77lbs of ground beef. Right now, I'm trying to hold 10psi of pressure and it's doing that with a 4 setting on the flat range top.
