Apple pie filling went great – Thanks!

I recently was gifted about 55 pounds of apples. I have plenty of jelly, and just did not want to make juice out of them. So I decided to make apple pie filling.

I searched this sub and started to see the nightmares people had experienced making pie filling. I read everything I could, and incorporated the safe ideas I found so I could see this come to a satisfactory conclusion.

I am proud to say that yesterday and today I was able to preserve 13 1/2 quarts of pie filling. Yesterday's are done, and today's look good (although rings still on till tomorrow). I am thankful for all the suggestions people made to those who had failures and I cannot wait to use these this winter. Have 7 quarts of applesauce cooking down now from the remaining apples since I figured I have enough pie filling.

Thanks!
