All American Pressure Canners

I received one of these as a birthday gift.... we recently started raising our own meat and I wanted to can meat and make my own stock, despite what my Newfoundland friends said.. I was not going to risk normal canning methods.

I got one of the bigger All American pressure canners and despite my initial fear (my mom had one of those old fashion exploding kind lol) it works like a charm.

Love it.

I forgot to add in my previous post that I have had trouble only once getting the top off. My son took a screw driver and lifted up the top with it by carefully prying it up all the way around the top. It worked fine and the top came right off.

My All American good deal!
by: PFenton

A number of years ago, when my kids were little and I wasn't working, I wanted a canner really bad. Money was tight, and they were expensive so I resorted to freezing and drying most of our garden produce.

Then I saw an ad in our local paper for a garage sale and a canner was listed as one of the items. We went to look and it was still there. The lady wanted $25.00 for it and assured me that the book, a pan, and 2 racks were all stored inside. It looked huge! (a 16 pt capacity).

When we got home, sure enough everything was there like she said. I got out my Lehman's catalog to compare and to my delight, it was an All American just the same as sold in the catalog for $299.00!!

Imagine my surprise at my good deal and......with the gasketless seal it works like a charm even after all these years! Just finished a ton of salsa with the last of the peppers and tomatoes before our first freeze.

Love my All American.
