I packed this beef roast to 1 inch heads headspace and added 1 teaspoon salt. Pressure canned for 90 minutes at 15psi for my altitude. The canner water was clean so don't think it siphoned.

Is this ok to eat?

    The two on the side, yes. The middle was is on the border, you need to have at least half of the jar filled at the end of processing to be safe.

    This is called “siphoning.” You can avoid this in the future. Don’t heat your canner up too quickly. Don’t boil too hard when processing. If your canner weight is going crazy when processing, turn the heat down in small increments until the weight rattles per instructions. Wait until the canner is cool until you remove the weight and the lid.
