No Pressure Cooker, Will It Work?

Due to some circumstances, I will probably not be able to use a pressure cooker.
My question to you, is there any chance in hell that I can be successful without using a pressure cooker? What's the best way to go about it?

Search around the board. When I started out I steamed PF cakes in a pot on the stove. With some success and a lot of contams. My advice get a PC.

The only jar I've seen with contamination had been PC'd. Steaming/boiling BRF jars is fine. You're more likely to get contamination during inoculation.

Thats what i was about to say, steam sterilising is fine for the PF tek, if you get mold in your jars and u have sterilised properly (90 minutes) then its gotten there during incolution or somehow managed to get passed the dry verm barrier.
I bought myself a pressure cooker thinking it would get rid of green mold, my first batch in the pressure cooker, 3 out of 4 contammed with green. Since then i moved to using a glovebox and my last batch had no mold.
