I used the chili recipe in the Ball canning book that starts with 5# of meat, then added about 6 cups of cooked beans... I ended up with 12 pints and a nice dinner that night. =0) Next year I think I'll double the amount of beans.

I don't know if this will be a help to anyone, but here's the pressure canner loaded... I can double stack in my canner, with a rack between the layers of jars.
