NEIA | OK we've done a lot of canned meat in the past and have always done it in the oven. I know that is not the way it's supposed to be done but we have never had a problem. I'm doing some for a friend and thought lets do it the correct way so I bought a new 22 quart pressure cooker. I put 13 pints of canned beef in it. The way the book read I was to put 2.5 quarts of water then cook for 1hour 15 minutes. When I was done it was out of water and I had one jar broke. I had the 10# cap on it and we are about 1000 altitude. It would pop the cap on and off consistency and I did not time the cook time until it began to steam- about 10 minutes in. The bottom of the cooker is warped out and will need straightened or returned. How much water should I have I put in?
