If the can isn't bulging, it's probably good. SPAM lasts a lot longer than the chart indicates. Some sources I've read show upwards of 20 years.

I’ve been canning butter. My freezer storage is minuscule so I had to explore other options. The shelf life is 5 years. I’ve had some on the shelf for 2 with zero issues. We actually prefer the canned butter. It’s texture is great and the flavor is enhanced.

Who knew canned ground beef would have a longer shelf life than Spam?

canned burger isnt the greatest, plus all of it can last longer than this says

Fry it first. It makes all the difference. You can season it while frying. I season for spaghetti sauce, tacos, bbq, etc. When I first started canning I thought cooking it first was stupid, twice the work. But the difference in the end result makes the extra work worth it.

yeah i brown it, drain... its the high heat from canning it just turns it like taco bell meat... i really dont like it.

some of my favorite and chicken brest, and corned beef (this depends on brand)

Yeah I can't help but doubt that a bit.

Even a cursory look at old "C-Rations" makes me wonder about some of these.
