Can you heat up the pouches for foods with meat in them? i.e. Chicken &amp; butternut squash

The way I do it is I put pouch In a bowl with warm to hot water for like 4-5 minutes and it heats it up. I do double check the temperature of the pure before giving in to my baby. You can definitely do it with any meat and veggies..

I have not done that but I'm sure you could. The only issue I can think of with that is you might have to adjust your cooking time a little bit depending on how much you use.

Not sure, however, I can't imagine it wouldn't work outstanding with a 5# bag !! I would put them in the bowl in stages, just like you do when adding eggs to a recipe....and warm probably works better than cold.....and you probably still need to add some milk or butter as you wish.

You can put anything in them. I used to put fresh apples, pears, oranges, frozen cubes of pureed foods such as squash and sweet potatoes; we even put ice chips in to help when she was teething. You can put just about any kind of fresh/frozen fruit or vegetable. Keep in mind these bags are very difficult to clean after a few weeks. I soaked them in hot water after every use and ran them through the dishwasher but food builds up in the seam. Even boiling them did not get it out. If you want to replace every couple weeks these are great, otherwise I would spend a little more for a silicone type.

I have put warm oatmeal in the squeeze bag and it seemed fine. I'm not sure it could tolerate piping hot puree, but if you let it cool a bit it would be okay. I guess you would just want to be careful of little hands touching the squeeze pouch with the hot stuff in it.

I read all of the content that was on the box of bags that I received and did not see it say that you could or could not reuse these bags. These are to be used with the sealing machine: Food Saver which uses heat to create a seal - not a zip type bag. You have to cut the bag open to get to your food after it has been steamed...... I suppose you could try it, but your bag will get smaller with each use, and the company probably cannot give you advise on reuse because they don't want to be responsible in case of bacteria left over from the previous use....

No, not at all. All of the food is vacuum sealed in bags that steams the food as it warms it in the microwave. Just be careful not to overcook. I have a 1200watt microwave and cook the breakfast for 1.5 min and cook the meat and vegs together for 3.5 min.

No!! Meats and some vegetables must be pressure canned. (potatoes, green beans). You can NOT water bath or steam can these. Refer to the ball canning website for more info.

I really don't see how it could. Heating the food and putting it in the jars, and then metal lids on it that seal as it cools.....I don't see how this would work. Maybe if you rigged something with tubing? Look it up on utube....It works great with the bags, and the plastic containers, though.

Like the other response states, this is just an easy way to fill pouches. You could probably use both together - Beaba to cook/purée and then this to fill pouches and store. Hope that helps!

You arent suppose to microwave them. I would assume meats would be ok to warm up in a bowl of warm water.

Yes, I freeze bread, rolls, pies, anything in them. I also put them in ziploc bags and everything comes out fresh. Take a hangar and when you use a bag, clip it to the hangar to re-use. I re-use all my bags but I clip them on hangars so I know that they are re-usable (nothing spilt in them etc.) I have been using for several years and have not been disappointed.

Yes you can. Just make sure everything is fully cooked all the way through. I'd use a meat thermometer just to be on the safe side.

Yes you can, it is a great product. I love it. this grill is very good for chicken, meat and fish. it worth it to spend the money on it. It is a good investment.

I'm sorry I don't know if you can cook the food in the bag!! I think you can but don't know for sure. I mostly vac. pak meat. I buy on sale and vac. pak in meal size.
