I have an opportunity to buy a large quantity of chicken breasts and I want to can them. However, I've never canned chicken (or any meat for that matter) and wonder if I should can in pints or quarts. I am just canning for hubby and I. I figure I can get about 1lb in a pint or 2lb in a quart...for normal everyday cooking I suppose quarts would work because I could refrigerate leftovers...but for a SHTF situation, leftovers could be a waste if I couldn't refrigerate them. I suppose a mix of quarts and pints would be best but your opinions would be appreciated!
