“With the exception of fermented pickles and sauerkraut, salt is an optional ingredient. Salt can be omitted for canning tomatoes, vegetables, meats, poultry, and seafood since the amount added does not contribute to the safety of the food.”
Assuming you’ve followed proper canning procedures for meat.

I might be wrong, but I don’t think salt has much to do with the safety of the product. It’s usually Optional and for taste.
