The only problem with buying large cans of MH or other meats is that you have to eat it all pretty fast once you crack the can open, especially in the warm humid months of summer.

Jerkey would hold out a long time too I would think. . Anybody have experience with long term jerkey storage?
Yoder's bacon is pretty good stuff and lasts 10 years. It is not as good as fresh cooked, but that is to be expected.has anyone seen canned bacon? they used to sell canned hungarian bacon at KMART about 30 years ago. the stuff would probably last forever.
I haven't found jerky to store well long term. There is fat in it and this it goes rancid.

I'm fairly certain that the SPAM we ate with fried eggs every Sunday morning back in the 70s came from the same batch that my Dad ate while aboard the USS Topeka during WWII....I stock spam, tuna,beef stew and jerky. Also chicken turkey soup.
This, it's better and cheaper making your own.I would second the getting a pressure canner and doing it yourself. Chicken Breast was on sale for $1.77/lb at Hannaford this week, run a canner load, 16 jars for 16lbs.
Home-canned meat lasts more or less forever, eventually it starts losing some structural integrity but if you keep it cool and out of the sun it lasts a long time. I've had meat that was 4-5 years old and still tasted fine.
Don't forget Salmon, Dinty Moore and Chef Boyardee.
