Response to Using a Gas Grill or Camp Stove for Canning??

Howdy, Jan! I have used our propane grill (w/attached burner) for canning in the summer. If you'll be using the pressure canner outside, be sure to shield it from the wind - the temperature fluctuations will affect whether your jars will seal properly. Water bath type canning should be okay - the jars are surrounded by boiling H2O, and an occasional breeze shouldn't affect them too much. Happy canning! Judi
