Canning goddesses! Help! They are blubbing!

[ohiofarmgirl]

ohmigosh.. ok so today i cooked up turkey and heated up the broth, stuffed 'em into the jars, processed per directions...and... and....

the jars are still bubbling....or rather... BLUBBING....as in blub blub blubblub

i'm kinda scared. i took them off the heat a LONG TIME AGO.

did i do something wrong!?!?!? should i take cover???? or just go get some ice cream and watch tv???

zoikes!

I vote for ice cream and tv, while one ear is pointed in the direction of the kitchen incase anything goes "ka-boom"

but I ain't no canning goddess....only thing I've canned was black raspberry jam.......

this whole thing is really interesting. and a little scary.

but i used one of the original broth's that i did before i left - it totally worked! it did the big ppppppffffffft when i opened it. yay!

Mine blubber for two hours sometimes. I try to smack them in the back of the head to get them to quit it, but it just makes it worse.

Seriously, happens all the time to my meats and even some stews and soups. I find great satisfaction in knowing that the temperature is so high !

Edited because spelling is my life.

Purty good ! Hugely busy. Loving my grandkids simply consumes me ! Today a FreeCycler donated two indoor fairy princess tents to my 3 year old who will be 4 on Saturday. She and her 10 year old sister are visiting tonight while their parents go on a date. The larger castle tent holds the toddler table and chairs as well as the play kitchen. The Tinkerbell tent is her "bedroom". Both tents came with sleeping bags, so it's VERY neat.

Oh, I should mention that she had asked Santa for "a dollhouse big enough to play in". I think these two tents oblige! It's very cool.

Thanks so much for asking BBH.

They blub because they are under pressure, which lowers the boiling point. So they will boil at lower temps. Cool, huh? Freaked me out the first time, too! I thought they would all explode!

I wonder why goat bucks blub? Are they under pressure, too?

oh Free you are a silly!

thanks for the tip - i knew there was some kinda scientific explanation -- my theory had some holes in it. 'demon possessed stock' just didnt sound right.

'demon possessed stock'

I wondered the same darn thing. Called my granny, cause I couldn't get on here. It fascinated my children. "Look! There it goes again!"
