- Wash 5 half-pint jars. Keep warm till needed. Prepare lids as manufacturer directs.
- Remove the cover from the pot of pears and sugar. Over medium-low heat, gradually heat the pear mix, stirring constantly and gently, till the sugar is completely dissolved. Stir in the butter. Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the mix to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer gently for 5 min, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
