    I Need to Learn about Canning

    That's an easy one.   Put your stew in a pot and get it warm to hot..    Fill your jars to about 1 inch from the top. Pressure can at 15psi for 90 minutes.    If you don't have a pressure cooker, I STRONGLY suggest an All American.. Most other pressure cookers are consumer rated low quality...
