can you tell me more about what you did with the potatoes?

I followed the directions in the presto canner manual. Basically I peeled the potatoes, rinsed them, cut into cubes, boiled for 2 minutes in water with a splash of vinegar, loaded into hot jars, added a splash of vinegar to each jar and topped with fresh boiling water, removed air bubbles, put on the lids, and processed at 10lbs for 35 minutes.

Beef ball stew. Like mountain oysters?

I don’t know what mountain oysters are. I took ground beef and used a small portion scoop/ice cream scoop to make little grain-free meat balls.

Oh ok. Mountain oysters are beef testicles. People eat them fried.

My tastes aren’t that exotic.
