Steps:
- Prepare home canning jars and lids according to manufacturer's instructions for sterilized jars. Keep jars hot until filled. Always use new lids.
- Place berries, lemon juice, butter and pectin in a large pot. Bring mixture to full rolling boil, stirring constantly. Stir in sugar. Return to a full rolling boil and boil exactly 1 min., stirring constantly.
- Remove from heat and skim off foam. Quickly ladle into the hot jars, leaving ¼-inch of head space at the top. Use a damp cloth to wipe any drips from the top and sides of the jars. Cover with hot lids and tighten rings firmly.
- Set the hot jars on a rack in a canner or in a large pot of boiling water. The water needs to cover the jars by at least 1-2 inches. Boil the jars for 10 minutes.
- Remove the jars from the boiling water and set on a towel or rack to cool overnight (but not more than 24 hours).
- When cool, check the seals. The lids should be down in the center or stay down when pressed. Store in a cool, dark, dry place. Unsealed jars should be refrigerated and used within 3 weeks.

Steps:
- 1. Place sugar in an ovenproof shallow pan and warm in a 250°F (120°C) oven for 15 minutes. (Warm sugar dissolves better.)
- 2. Place berries in a large stainless steel or enamel saucepan. Bring to a full boil over high heat, mashing berries with a potato masher as they heat. Boil hard for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
- 3. Add warm sugar, return to a boil, and boil until mixture will form a gel (see tips, below), about 5 minutes.
- 4. Ladle into sterilized jars and process as directed for Shorter Time Processing Procedure .
- Tip: To make a small boiling-water canner, tie several screw bands together with string or use a small round cake rack in the bottom of a large covered Dutch oven. Be sure the pan is high enough for 2 inches (5 cm) of water to cover the jars when they are sitting on the rack.
