This simple recipe calls for only a few ingredients and will have you enjoying summer fruit all year.

Every year, we put up jars and jars of jam and preserves. Jam is one of the best places for new canners to start—there aren't a ton of ingredients or a lot of prep work, they come together quickly, and taste far better than what you'd find at the grocery store. This blueberry jam recipe has been a go-to  in my family for years, and I'm excited to share it with you today. Let's make some blueberry jam!

I mean, is it not the most ridiculous-looking thing on the planet? It's a chicken. Standing up. On a beer. But then I took one taste, and I didn't care how silly it looked while cooking—that was a dang good chicken! By cooking the chicken on a can of your favorite beer (or hard cider—like I do here—or honestly, any liquid in a can), you not only keep the chicken moist and juicy, but you also get to impart all kinds of delicious flavor into every meaty bite. You also get to drink half a beer while you're cooking (it's part of the recipe!), which I'm not mad about.

This jam is pretty much life-changing. It's sweet, tangy, fruity. I know some people love the smooth, clear results you get with making jelly, but this jam is packed full of rhubarb chunks and strawberry pieces. I love that you can actually see the fruit when you spread it onto an English muffin. This jam makes my breakfast happy.
