Carrie Underwood is pressure-canning her and her family’s food. The country superstar often shares what she has been baking or growing in her big garden near her Nashville home on Instagram Stories. Recently, she posted some of what she was canning on her Instagram.
She Posted A Video
She posted a video with Stevie Wonder’s “Isn’t She Lovely” playing in the background, showing what she had been pressure canning. She picked up many jars to show what they contained, including Elk Venison, Baked Beans, Lentil Carrot Soup, and more.
Carrie captioned the kitchen video clip, “Been getting a lot done with some of the wild game in the fridge…and then some! So nice to have ready-made food on the shelf waiting for us! Much of these were from various @canningdiva books. I took liberties here and there to make them my own, of course!”
Several of her 13 million Instagram fans reacted to the post. One fan wrote, “It’s a lost art.” Another fan commented, Wow!!! That’s a lot of canning!! I’m impressed, Carrie!!” One more fan said, “Your creativity never ceases to amaze me.”

Underwood recently said in an interview that she loves Beyonce, who is making a splash in country music with her new album, Cowboy Carter. Carrie talked with Yahoo recently and said the genre has been broadening its fanbase.
“All Part of The Same Family”
Carrie told Yahoo, “There really is something for everybody now. One of the great things about country music, and this is true for music in general, is that every genre has really just broadened itself. If you like things that are more traditional, you can find those.” She added, “If you like things that seem more pop, you can find that. If you like things that can cross over into other genres, you can find something that you love.” She said that it’s “all part of the same family,” and she will “always welcome that.”
Loves People Like Beyonce and Post Malone
Underwood also said that she loves people like Post Malone, Beyoncé, and Jelly Roll, who are “artists first and foremost.” She noted that they kind of “weave in and out of different genres of music,” and she thinks that’s “really cool.” In fact, Underwood recently played concerts opening for a non-country act — Guns’ N Roses — and covered a few rock songs at those shows.
“I Try To Keep Up”
In the same interview, Carrie said that she actually watches American Idol when she can; it’s the show that made her a household name in 2005, when she won. She said, “I try to keep up as best I can.” She noted that she thinks “it’s all great,” adding that at the end of the day, it’s “giving people a shot at their dreams.”
After being named the new American Idol, Carrie was joined by fellow contestants onstage during the American Idol Finale: Results Show, which was held at the Kodak Theatre on May 25, 2005, in Hollywood, California.
