CHICKEN OR RABBIT

-----------------------------------------------------------

PROCEDURE: Choose freshly killed and dressed, healthy
animals. Large chickens are more flavorful than fryers.
Dressed chicken should be chilled for 6 to 12 hours before
canning. Dressed rabbits should be soaked 1 hour in water
containing 1 tablespoon of salt per quart, and then rinsed.
Remove excess fat. Cut the chicken or rabbit into suitable
sizes for canning. Can with or without bones.

Hot pack--Boil, steam or bake meat until about two-
thirds done. Add 1 teaspoon salt per quart to the jar, if
desired. Fill hot jars with pieces and hot broth, leaving
1 1/4-inches headspace.

Raw pack--Add 1 teaspoon salt per quart, if desired.
Fill hot jars loosely with raw meat pieces, leaving 1-1/4-
inch headspace. Do not add liquid.

Adjust lids and process.
