Mine hold 14 qt. jars or 19 pint jars.

It also has a pressure gage and a weight to control pressure. I only pay attention to to the pressure gage to know when the pressure has dropped to zero before I open the canner. On the high end, I trust the weight over the gage.

Ill do that, i didn't know it would affect it that much, it came with almost no information in the manual

This might help you and you might find it cheaper elsewhere I don't know but it'll get you up to 15 pounds for about 13 or $14

Well it sure is not the same 23 qt. Presto I have as I have nearly a 100 page book with all the settings for different foods, water boiling the whole thing. Mine came with one weight and then once you hit the desired level you adjust the heat source to maintain. My gauge shows that over 20lbs. is dangerous. Mine also states not to be used on open flame. I bought another 16 qt. granite wear pressure cooker I use with my turkey fryer unit and propane.

Cotton, ya know how us women are always telling men to read the instructions? Turn it around and tell your wife to read her canner instruction booklet LOL


Cotton, don't do it..Angela must be mad at you or something!!

Ask yourself if you want to be right or if you want to be happy!!!

Ten pounds is fine for meat just longer duration, ten pounds ninety minutes, 15 pounds seventy five min...or that's what I was taught and have used for years

It is amazing how little flame it requires to maintain pressure once the desired level is achieved. I will say I tried canning outdoors and the breeze made it very difficult to maintain a desired pressure.

Your elevation above sea level has to be figure in your pressure and time.

I use pressure cookers often. It was a staple in the kitchen growing up.

Meat. 10 to 15 lbs of pressure for 90 minutes. Wide mouth quart jars. I pack in raw cleaned up meat. One large table spoon of Beef Base paste or Au Jus paste . I like the Au Jus better. That is it. Venison, Black bear, Beef all come out great. Works great on black Bear, the fat ends up at the top of the jar. Discard it, heat and eat.

At our elevation, the table shows 12 pounds. I use to mess with trying to maintain 12 pounds on my dial gauge. Now I actually just use the 15 pound weighted gauge. Way easier as far as adjusting. No difference in quality, that we could tell from meat done at 12 pounds.

Tac20, you can still use your 10 pound cooker for simple meal pressure cooking. One of my favorites:
Throw a Deer neck in there with an onion and a quart or two of water. Cook it at 10 pounds for 45 minutes. Remove bones, add some boiled Or frozen vegetables and canned tomatoes to the meat. Awesome fast stew. It’s also a great way to make meat for French dip sandwiches or pulled bbq venison.
