Green Tomato Mincemeat image

This makes about 30 pints of mincemeat. Have on hand 30 pint canning jars with brand-new rings and lids. Reusing old lids is not recommended. A delicious way to use green tomatoes. The recipe came from my grandfather, and our family has been making it forever! Use straight from the jar for pies, cookies, muffins, or cake.

Yield 120

Number Of Ingredients 13

8 quarts green tomatoes, minced
8 quarts minced, cored apples
½ pound beef suet
6 pounds brown sugar
1 cup distilled white vinegar
2 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons ground cloves
2 tablespoons ground allspice
2 pounds raisins
32 ounces candied mixed citrus peel
7 large orange, peeled, sectioned, and cut into bite-size
2 lemons, finely chopped

Steps:

  • In a very large stock pot, combine green tomatoes, apples, suet (or oil), brown sugar, vinegar, chopped oranges, chopped lemons, raisins, and candied peel. Season with salt, cinnamon, cloves and allspice. Cover, and cook over low heat for 3 hours.
  • Sterilize 30 (1 pint) canning jars and lids according to manufacturer's instructions.
  • Ladle filling into the sterilized jars, leaving 1/2 inch head space. Wipe the jar with a clean, damp cloth. Cover with jars with lids, and screw on jar rings.

I made this green tomato mincemeat for the first time last year and it was a hit. I used a mix of green and red tomatoes, and I added a little extra sugar to taste. It turned out perfect. I've been making it every year since.
