    Im trying to wait seven days....Hawg, is it necessary?
    I did add some vinegar, and loose pickling spices, and kosher salt, boiled the hell out of it, and poured it over the eggs and peppers and onions.

    I don't water bath mine. There is no known safe waterbath method that makes them any safer to leave out a room temp than how I do them which is refrigerated and keep refrigerated until gone. Waterbath will continue to cook you already hard boiled eggs which will make the yolks very dry.

    As to how long? I rarely make it much more than about 4 days and then have a sample. I seem to enjoy them the most early before the the egg white firms up from being pickled for several weeks. RubberDuck seems to be able to wait for 2 to 3 weeks but I never make it past 4 or 5 days at the most.

    You ever hear of that one?
    My brain is hurt, so I remember, three cook, because four raw doesn't match...now im confused

    Now I have the 2017 green beans done for the year. Right around 80 quarts total. More apple to turn into sauce and spiced apple rings Saturday.

    Here's another example if anyone cares:
    8# ground beef
    A variety of vegetables (corn, green beans, carrots, onion, potato)

    While it is technically a stew, it is the basis for several other meals.
    1-2 jars for shepherds pie.
    1 jar combined 6 packs ramen= 6 meals
    1 jar combined 2 boxes hamburger helper= 6+ meals

    Etc, etc....

    Edited to add: My rough and quick calculations say when combined with two cheap boxes hamburger helper or generic equivalent, each jar will feed 6 people for about $5.
    That doesnt mean buffet all you can eat, but it will be filling and provide proteins, carbs, and vegetable goodness. Basically, it is a meal stretcher.
    I fear the nation I loved may be gone. The best I hope for now is to die with honor in the coming civil war, and that my grandchildren be spared the pain of a tyrannical government.
