I have lost my jar lifter and have limped along all winter, burning my fingers, but now that spring is here, I really need one. When I look for them in the store, it's just as part of a set and it's more $$ than I want to pay (I don't need the other items!) If anyone has one they'd like to trade, I'd love it! Thanks in advance! :)

I friend uses one of those silicone oven mitts. She just reachs in, and graps the jar. Also, she uses it for corn on the cob, that she boils!!! |

It happens to me all the time! You just have to laugh & go on-now you will have one to pass on if someone else needs one!

Well, the joke's on me. I finally broke down and purchased one to can chicken, the next week my daughter found my old one, in the back top cupboard. Ah well, now I have 2 again :)

We just got 2 Menard's here in Wichita and they are a steal on canning supplies. I bought a lot of the 1/2 gallon jars to make ginger bugs, and Kombucha.
I want there to be no peasant in my kingdom so poor that he cannot have a chicken in his pot every Sunday.

Sheila I also saw them for sale at Tractor Supply. Really nice quality with heavy blue rubber gripper.

We just bought one for my mother-in-law at Walmart. They had a canning section, and you can just get that one piece. Also saw them at Ace Hardware.

Oh Shiela, I could not find the lifter, it could still be packed away somewhere. But, I sure will keep my eyes open when I go to Goodwill and to yard sales this weekend.

Okay Sheila you are talking about the jar lifter for lifting your jars out of the canner right? Just want to be sure as I have not canned in a long time. I do have one and if I can find it you can have it, I will look and let you know.
