Sorry guys, I didn't see this until now. I have no idea what kind of grapes. They were mostly green. Guess we'll have to try something next year. A lot of people wanted to use them to make wine, but no one ever did.Quote:

I have a cousin in Montrose that grows concord grapes. She juiced them and filtered the juice then gave each family member a pint of it. I made jelly with mine using low sugar pectin and about half the sugar regular pectin needs. Turned out great. I also went to Costco and picked up a big bag of organic blueberries and made jam out of them. Between the strawberry, strawberry rhubarb, mixed berry, grape, and blueberry jam I should be good until next spring.
I went to Nazars several times looking for it. Asked them, walked back and forth through every isle, they must have thought I was crazy. I even showed them this thread. I ended up buying it on eBay.
Done! Yes I know it is not thanksgiving but like I have said before they only come on sale once a year. 16lb bird was $8 and should give us 8 pints of canned turkey. A pint is more than enough for the 2 of us for a turkey dinner. So Littletex (the wife) will de-bone him tomorrow and I will can him up tomorrow night. Like chicken I can turkey covered in a mix of broth/chicken bullion and water. He almost looks too good to can. http://i884.photobucket.com/albums/a...e570Medium.jpg
Damn, Jerry. Someday I hope to grow up and be as awesome as you are. I bought two extra turkeys last Thanksgiving so I could try this and they are still sitting in the deep freeze. I guess I should throw them out and wait for the next sale.
BTW - That turkey looks damn good.
