Just out of curiosity I did a little bit of searching on the topic. Botulism toxin is killed at 185 degrees after 5 minutes. The spores are killed at 240 degrees. And a pH of 4.6 or lower prevents botulism toxin growth from the spores.

Things to keep in mind for safe canning. USDA has a canning guide if anyone would like to do more reading on it. Don’t just take my advice. I wouldn’t want anyone to get sick, so I encourage people to learn the right way.

You only need to pressure can low acid foods, like snap beans or carrots. For pickled in vinegar stuff, water baths are sufficient.
