Canning gelatin-poultry fat

I just canned up yet another big batch of ground turkey!

I got a lot of gelatin and fat left over and am wanting to he less wastful and diversify.

Is it possible to safely can the fat and gelatin together?

Or perhaps just the gelatin?

To be on the safe side then skim off the fat.

This might help:

canning fat doesn't kill all the bacteria in the process, then that means that no food with any fat should be canned.

Thank you again! I’ll try to start using the search function. It’s been awhile since engaging on any forums for me. 🙂

I went and did another batch of ground turkey. I canned up the gelatin and fat. Hoping it doesn’t kill me!

I was going to use it in rice dishes and maybe some gravy. I did pint jars at 75 minutes.

Thoughts? The good, bad and the ugly?! Lol
