Pears are usually ready more towards September here. Peaches are late here because of all the rain we've had. I make my applesauce and apple butter in the crockpot. So easy! Some I do unsweetend, some sweetened and spices added. I think I may try peach and pear butter this year.

Someone mentioned Spaghetti sauce. I have my grandmother's recipe for sauce and I think it might have ground beef in it. Do I have to do it in the pressure canner if I put the meat in? I always thought you have to do any meat that way but I know tomato products can be done in the water bath.

Tomato products, you can just add extra lemon juice to make sure they're acidic enough to water bath can.
Not so much with meat. So yes, you need to use the pressure canner for sauce with meat in it. I've tried it a few times, but haven't perfected the canned recipe enough (using my MIL's recipe, she simmers on the stove for hours to meld it, but pressure canning pretty much simmers it for that long anywho, and yeah, it's just one of those things I haven't messed around with a ton yet - after a few batches of burnt-tasting sauce, I shelved the project for a bit).
