Check a pint-sized jar for cracks. Submerge it in simmering water for 5 minutes. Wash a new, unused lid and ring in warm, soapy water.

Meanwhile, toss venison, garlic, salt, and pepper in a large bowl until evenly mixed.

Put the venison into the sterilized jar along with the onion and bell pepper. Wipe the rim with a clean, damp cloth, then seal with the lid and ring.

Place the jar in a pressure canner filled with water as directed by the manufacturer. Cover and bring to a boil with the pressure valve open. Boil for 5 minutes, then close the pressure valve. Bring to 10 psi, then lower the heat to keep it at that pressure. Process for 75 minutes, monitoring the gauge so it stays at 10 psi. After 75 minutes, turn off the heat and let the canner cool until the gauge reads 0 psi.
- 5
When the pressure has dropped and the canner is safe to open, remove the jar and place it on a rack to cool. The jar will seal with a pop as it cools; refrigerate the jar if it does not seal. Properly sealed jars may be stored in a cool, dark place.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products
easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.
The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.
Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.
For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
