Shelf life of canned meat

[Deleted]

For you folks that can your own meat.... chicken, beef, venison or otherwise, what's the typically shelff life, if stored in a cool, dry, dark space?
I plan on really going to town canning this year on the deer meat.

Last week I ate a can that was at least two years old. Found it in the back of the shelf....I wouldn't worry about shelf life......

I can everything I can. (Oh, that was witty) I never have enough canned venison left over from 1 year to the next. I have seen venison stored 3 years with no problems. I put everything in my root cellar . The temp down there is a constant and I never had a freeze out. There is a old saying when canning," when in doubt, throw it out." My apples are still as good as the day I got them. No mush or soft spots and still tart.
