I am sorry, but oven canning is extremly dangerous. You will put yourself at a serious risk for botulism. The only safe method for canning meats is in a steam pressure canner. One man,who lives here locally, just recently was near death by eating improperly canned venison stew.
CANNING MEATS Bear, beef, lamb, pork, veal, venison
PROCEDURE: Choose quality chilled meat. Remove excess fat. Soak strong-flavored wild meats for 1 hour in brine water containing 1 tablespoon of salt per quart. Rinse. Remove large bones.
Hot pack -- Precook meat until rare by roasting, stewing, or browning in a small amount of fat. Add 1 teaspoon of salt per quart to the jar, if desired.
Fill jars with pieces and add boiling broth, meat drippings, water, or tomato juice (especially with wild game), leaving 1-inch headspace.
Raw pack -- Add 1 teaspoon of salt per quart to the jar, if desired. Fill jars with raw meat pieces, leaving 1- inch headspace. Do not add liquid.
Adjust lids and process.
Recommended process time for STRIPS, CUBES, OR CHUNKS OF MEAT in a dial-gauge pressure canner. pints, 75 minutes at ll lb. pressure, quarts 90 minutes. In a weighted gauge canner, use 10lb. pressure unless you live at elevations higher than 1,000 ft. then use 15 lb. pressure.
