Canned Dry Pinto Beans

I saw a canning post on Facebook of a great idea and thought I would try it. Never heard of it and I don't know why, its simple. I went to Walmart and got some dried pinto beans from the bin. You know, the one you scoop out what you want and a piece of pork side meat. Very inexpensive and should be good this winter when I don't have all day to cook pinto beans.

 Dry pinto's (because I like them best). You can use any dry bean you like. 

Pork side meat. 3.26 for this piece and it was enough to put into 14 quarts. I just sliced it into 14 pieces. 

I measured 1 cup of dry beans per quart and a piece of meat. The instructions I got was make sure they are dry. NO PRE SOAKING!!

Fill with water leaving about 1 inch of head space. I also added a teaspoon of salt. Serialize your jars, lids and rims before putting into pressure caner. 

The end result is beautiful called pinto beans. They look even better the next day. This pic is just out of the caner. Enjoy!!!
