How to make and can bacon bits

I was looking up different things to can the other day, other than just fruits and veggies. While searching the internet I stumbled across this cool little blog called rural revolution. The woman who writes the blog is an Idaho house wife and had some things on her blog about canning that I never thought of before, like canning bacon bits. Here's how it's done.

You start with a pack or so of bacon ends. I've tried it with the regular bacon and it doesn't come out the same. 

Next cut up the bacon ends leaving a little bit of fat.
Once the bacon is cut up,place all of the bacon into a large sauce pan and cook until crispy but not over done. 
You may need to drain the bacon while it cooks and of course again when it's finished. 
When the bacon is done spoon the bacon into clean jars,tighten the lids, and can in a pressure canner using10 pounds of pressure for 75 minutes.
