The first to disappear from any of our dinners are typically the delectable beef cubes that offer a variety of flavors. If preferred, it may be served with white Jasmine or Thai sticky rice on a bed of lettuce, onions, and tomatoes.

Dr. Amy Shepherd
Love this recipe. I added 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla and used 1/2 and 1/2 strawberry and raspberry jello. It turned out great.
Tyler Fernandez
My husband loves it. I made it yesterday. It is very delicious. Next to make I will try less 1 cup sugar as the gelatin have sweet in it. But it is very very good jam.
Richard Raymond
I make this every year when the rhubarb is on. It is our favorite. I like to use different flavors of red jello. Our favorite is cherry.
Dr. Kathy Cohen
This is fantastic! I packed in 10 cups of rhubarb and I chopped it in my food processor. Then I cooked it for an extra 10 or 15 minutes. I also didn’t want to keep this in the fridge or freezer so I canned it in a hot water bath for 5 minutes. Will definitely be making this again.

Worked great to use up last seasons rhubarb. Jelled, soft texture.
Michael Jenkins
I finally remembered that this wasn’t the recipe I wanted to make. I did make this with no changes ans it was tasty and easy, but now I remember that the recipe that I wanted had pectin in it, not jello. Better luck with next years harvest.
Brian Pitts
This is a fantastic recipe. The car combination of rhubarb and pineapple is sensational. A very easy recipe. The constituency is beautiful. Not to runny but not to firm. Just perfect. I’ll be making this again
Andrea Velasquez
I didn’t have strawberry jello so used raspberry and only used 1 cup sugar and also used low-sugar sure-jell which made it too thick and seemed too sweet too. My mistake. It still works.
James Beasley
Was easy to make and loved the taste
David Hess
Only change I made, was to only make one jar. Friend gave me one + cups. It’s wonderful. Can’t wait for my rhubarb to grow.
Christopher Martinez
I split the fruit…5 cups rhubarb and 5 cups frozen strawberries
Amy Crosby
This recipe is awesome!! I added the vanilla as well and wow! Yum Yum!!
Scott Jacobs PhD
Made just as recipe stated and turned out great, thanks for sharing your recipe.
Alexis Robinson
Absolutely delightful. Just a little too sweet, though, so I will reduce the sugar next time. Perhaps a quarter or third of a cup.
Shannon Watson
We loved this recipe as is & thought it got nice & jam like. After chilled, it was even thicker. Once we made it & accidently drained the pinapple juice. Definitely thick then. We have also increased the cooking time by 10 minutes, still turned out great. We have froze this too & it was super! Fantastic jam recipe, we will be making every rhubarb season! Thanks!
Paul Wilcox
I would TOTALLY recommend this recipe. Easy to make, way lower in sugar than any other recipe I’ve ever seen! Nice tartness, a bit sweet, very yummy!
John Jones
This was my first time making rhubarb jam. It is so simple and it tastes GREAT!!
Victoria Andrade
This is super easy and very tasty too, but I would have to agree with others that it could be a little thicker. Not quite runny, but not as thick as I would prefer. Definately using this recipe again though 🙂
Susan Chavez
Very good I’m very pleased with this recipe and everyone that i have given a jar have only said good things about it and have asked for the recipe.
Tyler Mills
Amazing!!! This was my first time making jam and canning and everything turned out perfect! I made this as gifts for my bridal shower and it was a big hit! I followed the recipe exactly for one batch and cut back on sugar for the second. Both were Amazing and the color is absolutely beautiful on toast! Next time I might try some with apple or blueberry or both! Thank you for sharing!
Paul Schmitt
What a great and easy recipe for jam and it tastes so good on toast or ice cream. Its a delicious way to cut my rhubarb yield every spring in half. Thanks for the recipe!
