Instructions

In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine rhubarb, strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice.
Allow the mixture to bubble gently; then reduce heat to medium-low. Stir occasionally until thickened (about 1 hour).
If refrigerating or freezing, transfer hot jam into clean mason jars.
For water bath canning, sterilize jars while cooking the jam.
Fill each sterilized jar with hot jam, leaving ¼ inch headspace; secure lids.
Process jars in boiling water for 10 minutes before cooling undisturbed for 24 hours.
Check seals after cooling; refrigerate any unsealed jars.
