View Full Version : Canned Elk Chimichangas
Bassman 09-28-2010, 06:41 PM I ran out of chimis awhile back and didn't have any pulled pork in the freezer. The next option was to open a couple of quarts of canned elk to make my chimichangas. I make these by the dozen and store in zip lock bags in the freezer. Just take out what we want, heat up some Stokes Green Chile Sauce w/pork and smother the chimi adding a few drops of Tabasco green sauce.
Piled on the elk meat, one of Tracey's poblano peppers and a handful of grated cheddar.

Letting them cool off so I can freeze them.

Jerod, I just cube up the elk in about 2"X2" chunks and pack in quart jars. Add 2 cloves of garlic, one teaspoon of salt and pressure at 15# for 1 hour.
