How I Make Primitive Acorn Pancakes
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 жов 2024
- My favorite way to prepare acorns is definitely to prepare pancakes. The wild ingredients I use are NOT available in stores, yet they are very healthy and nutritious. This is truly a meal money can’t buy. If you have access to acorns where you live then I highly encourage you to collect them during the next harvest season. I have several other videos showing how I collect and prepare acorns so I encourage you to watch them.
This is my last video production at the Hut. I’ve been making videos at the Hut for about three years and now it seems that it is time to move on to somewhere else. I hope you will continue to follow my journey of exploration, survival and bushcraft in this great Earth.
Thank you!

You have developed a whole culture there. You have a comfortable house, fresh running water, supplies of fuel, and plenty to eat.
If I had to name your culture I would call it Neolithic rather than Primitive. (That's a NICE house!) That turns out to be a much closer approximation to how the old California Indians lived than we could otherwise picture. And you show us they lived well.
Do you realize just about the only things I've seen in your videos that might be anachronisms are the machine-tanned breechclout and a poodle? OK, the smreka was probably made of a different fruit but there were millions of people; you know somebody tried it and they liked it. Spanish brandy made them forget their recipes. I find that plausible. What I don't find plausible is that you could find a tree bigger than a telephone pole where you are, cut it down and cut log sections of it and then hollow it out like you did your stone metate with the basketry rim and then split another section into boards, all without iron tools. It would seem to be easier for you to make a ceramic vat, if you already don't have several. (You might. At your cultural level they are quite useful)
I am astounded at what I'm learning from you. Now I know why that Cherokee ghost showed me his drum. He wanted people to hear it.
Working with bone gets more and more refined with practice.
Acorns can be real food for long term settlement. By the way, what you said the California Indians did, having families go to where the trees are when the acorns are at their best, New Mexico Indians still do with certain stands of pine trees where they go to get the pine nuts. It's still a profitable activity.
Just remember; if it thunks, it isn't tight enough. Trucker's knots make all the difference.
Great comment Pete! Very large sycamore trees grow here. Cutting one with some tools would prove to be quite a feat! Using fire to cut and hollow it would be more likely. I'm going to start a new settlement in a new location. It will be much better. I invite you to follow along.
@@ChadZuberAdventures You know I am waiting to hear your drum. I looked at Mound Builder pottery last night, and found one footed pot that was perfect for a water drum. I checked the rim for any dents, and there were none. The leather protects the rim of the drum from rimshots. If someone had abused it there would have been chips. I think it's 1,000 years old. You already have a pot that is nearly that shape, but footless. Oh yeah. Make your drum. Taste the magic. (it's really all physics but looking at the world through the boom of a really big water drum can be understood well through a magician's perspective.)
I will do it! I just need some time to get set up at a new place. Please! Please keep reminding me! I really want to make the drum like you described.
I should write of my experiences with making large wooden powwow drums out of hollow logs. I watched a Mataponi Indian in Virginia get a slice of living oak three feet around and eighteen inches deep. He then carved the outside beautifully. He then drilled the inside to where the drum was an inch thick. As soon as it dried, the next day almost, the drum turned into kindling as it shrank.
Learning from this, when I got a hollow log of old growth oak about two feet in diameter and four feet tall I debarked it and cut it into two cylinders and reamed out the hollow until the walls were thin enough that my nerve failed me. That left walls about three to four inches thick. Then I finished the top and bottom edges. I talked with other local powwow drum makers in that area and found that they do the same. Including the part about their nerves! It means their drums are heavy, 20-50 lbs or so. But they hold up. I made four of them. (If you have a big drum, including a big water drum, and you are going to a powwow, bring your drum. Drum failure has been known to occur at powwows. When you can sing with the water drum you may be invited to play. I certainly was.)
Wow! How long did it take to hollow out one trunk? I may try to hollow out smaller logs. Just cutting it down will be the big challenge.
The amount of hard work that goes into what you do is incredible!
If you only knew...
@@ChadZuberAdventures I can only imagine! And even then I know I'm way off, however, I wish I were closer so I could offer help!
Hi
I love watching this right before bed. It's so calming and it also philosophical perspective of what you really need in life.
Being on this adventure has really shown me exactly that. Really everything we need to live is provided by nature. I'm glad that idea is apparent to you and others.
I want to live like that
Hi
Seeing the mans face and eyes you can tell he’s found peace, and comfort, not having to deal with the problems of society, I pray one day we all find the same peace and compassion for each other and the things we love to do. Also thank you so much for sharing these videos with us all, it’s a blessing to see.
Too late. The rest of humanity is driven by greed and dogma
Hi
Wow, just recently stumbled across this gem of a channel, got addicted to it very fast. Its not just the things you learn, its the puristic way the videos are, combined with the sound of nature, its almost hypnotic. Every video takes me away into a calm place, forgetting all the rush of daily life around me. I even measured my pulse going slower! A very artisan style it is. Love it, thank you Chad!
Thank you for such a beautiful comment!
Hi
As soon as you hear that iconic drum beat at the start of Chad's videos, you know it's going to be good.
That's a water drum. The northern type made of a hollow log that holds water in the bottom with a tanned hide as a drumhead.
@@petehoover6616 big Brain man go brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Pete, I need to make one of those drums
@@ChadZuberAdventures I took a Shamanic Journey some time ago. I met a man playing a drum who said he was Cherokee (I am not Cherokee) and that he was showing me his drum for a reason. His drum was a 5-gallon ceramic vat (they are common items) with tanned deerskin for a head but the interesting thing was the tension; he had used strong cord and pebbles as grommets and used trucker's knots to increase the tension.
I copied that drum and have it still and have played it often. It is much larger than the pot drum used in peyote ceremonies.
I have never seen anyone else play a drum like this one.
The drum must be about 1/4 full of water to work. The drum is firmly planted on the ground and when played the water sends the sound through the earth and up into people's legs if they are near.
If you youtube search for water drum you will find one guy who makes the same thing out of a tree log. He is making a wooden bucket.
You don't have any wooden buckets but you do have self-made ceramic dishes all over the place that would work. Small ones do well.
One issue with a water drum is that it's more of a verb than a noun. If you make one you will see what I mean.
Wow! Thanks for the detailed description. I am really interested in making one. Do you really think clay could work?
I can watch this guy's videos for straight hours, its so impressive what he does
Extremely impressive, this guy is a lot of my inspiration for my outdoors videos
Thank you so much guys!
Hi
me to!!!!!??
its amazing!!! so much to learn from him..
Der Typ ist mutig und ausdauernd bzw hat viel Geduld ! Es geht ja auch nicht anders in der Wildness! 👍
Wow der erste deutsche Kommentar denn ich hier jemals auf diesen Kanal gesehen habe

@@rejectmodernityembracemanhood 👍😂
Ja bin echt beeindruckt von Chad.
Würde auch gerne so leben aber ich bin in diesem bürokratischen drecks Loch Namens Deutschland gefangen 😢
Your videos are awesome. Made me live my life. Those videos taught me nothing is impossible. We can survive in any situation with help of nature. Thank you so much.
Love from nature.
“How I cook better than Gordon Ramsey with only a tree branch”
I wonder if Gordon Ramsay would do a show at my kitchen
@@ChadZuberAdventures probably not 🤣
@@illegallyblonde232 lol
@Alif Syakir Ahmad orang indo nyasar gais wkwkkw
Chad is going to have problems with Gordon Ramsey..
This makes me grateful for what i eat
ACORN BREEEEEEEAAAAAD!!!
I'm beyond glad Chad has considered my suggestion for food! Truly, a true Chad among primitive UA-camrs. Take this from someone who essentially eats whole wheat flour, but honey is perfect for such a dense food.
*ua-cam.com/video/qjUGC4jNR6Aj/v-deo.htmlsjdj*
I'm glad that you're glad! I rarely eat whole wheat because I notice a big difference in digestion compared to acorns. The acorn flour is definitely superior to wheat. I love acorns. I just wish they were easier to prepare.
@@ChadZuberAdventures Next logical step would be to find a way to finely grind your coarse grind acorn flour.
The most primitive way to grind grains or in your case, acorn flour, is a Mealing Stone, or what the Aztecs called a "metate".
It's still incredibly tedious, but it should get the job done at refining your flour.
That would certainly make it more fine although it's really not necessary. We'll see if I get that advanced.
Lo más creativo y primitivo (en el lado bueno) que he visto muy buen video
Haven’t checked out your videos in ages, I remember when you were just starting to build the hut! You’ve come a long way, glad to see you’re still at it
Thanks Matt! It's been quite a journey.
Tarzan 2.0 is back, playing MINECRAFT SURVIVAL WITH GOOD SHADER PACKS.
luv it, be safe Chad!
Hahaha
This video is a good example of what needs to be shown on TV. Chad Zuber's content deserves to be shown on official channels. Thx for the hard work
I appreciate the good vibes
Please keep on making more vids we love it♥️♥️♥️
You are very creative and knowledgeable Mr Chad, great👍. Greetings from Indonesia 🇮🇩
Thank you and greetings to you too
@@ChadZuberAdventures Yes, you are welcome😁
I can’t stop watching his videos they’re sooo good.
Você merece um programa no Discovery! Muito inteligente! Parabéns!
I love you carol lima muy hermosa
Você é o rei da sobrevivência. Parabéns pelos ótimos vídeos e pelas técnicas que nos passa!! Um abraço!!
Obrigado amigo! Um abração!
Where there is a perfect pancake flip, there is life. There is hardship in everything except eating pancakes. Love from Korea🇰🇷💕
Thank you!! Haha! Greetings to you!
Hi
I really like watching your videos , it's like meditation 🙏
Thank you!
You deserve much more recognition for what you do and the work you put in your videos, I find them very relaxing.
I really appreciate that. I'm trying to do better.
I hope your content never stops, your chanel has the Best videos that i enjoy and like to watch
I'm so glad you are enjoying them.
Im literally obsessed with your channel. Keep on doing your thing!!!
Thank you soooo much!
Your the best
I can’t wait for the new journey
That was a wonderful three years! It's always hard to leave something behind, but I believe that Chad has this strength. And this will be one more lesson on how to keep going in this life. Looking forward to new videos and wishing best of luck from Russia!
Yes, it's been a great experience and it's going to get better.
This is amazing! I don't know how I forgot about this channel but I've shared it back to all my friends all 3 of them.
Thanks! Damn, you have more friends than me
Amazing! Thanyou for these videos they're so interesting!
Thank you!
Who else won’t ever need this knowledge but finds his videos cool
Everyone who reads this comment I hope they have a wonderful week!
You too
As easy as you've made ALL of this look, I can't even begin the fathom the hardships involved in doing what you're doing. These videos make me want to quit my jobs and live off of a secluded piece of land so bad, but here I sit at my desk... unprepared and certainly not ready for such a task. Thanks for sharing so we can live vicariously through you!!! :)
Some how that made me feel better
it's so beatuiful.
Waiting your next videos Chad.
Thank you!!
Guinness world record must honor this man.. 3 years in wildlife is not a joke
Здравствуйте !
Очень интересные видео у вас !
Желаю вам всего самого лучшего !
Здравствуйте! Спасибо большое!
Muy chévere lo que haces, saludos desde Colombia.
Muchas gracias! Saludos!
I have to say, I am genuinely sad to see the hut go. I really was hoping and looking forward to many more improvements, experiments and Ideas at that site, plus the hut itself is a nice build. I do hope you are planning on building more such structures and produce videos!
Yes, I'm planning to build a much better settlement! The hut will still be here. I just won't be doing videos at the hut.
Esperando ansioso las nuevas aventuras!Saludos desde argentina como siempre,aqui volviendo a ver tus videos despues de 15 dias de sufrir el covid con mi familia..
Thanks for sharing this great video. I hope you had a Happy Easter. Cheers, Chad!
Yes, ir was a great day! How was your Easter?
Another master piece from our dear Chad!!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😍😍
I feel like this dude really does live there and not just when he makes a video
Alright I’m all about learning something and I have to try acorn cakes. There are PLENTY of different types of berries and acorns where I live. Great vid thanks
Awesome! Acorns and berries are great together!
Amazing video, very much effort!
You should go to Australia and gather honey there. Some of the bees don’t sting down under.
You should also make a boat or raft. Then you could travel very far!
Always happy to see your video!
Thanks! I really don't use honey much. But I like the beeswax for making candles.... I made a boat last year. Did you see those videos?
Just discovered your channel yesterday with the three years compilation. Now on a binge-watch journey.
Next video: How to make a computer with acorn
hahahaha serious man you make a good videos
Thanks man!
Hi
Thanks to this video I've went to the woods and one single stare of mine was able to make an entire hive give me all it's honey.
I really love your videos Chad. Many loves from Turkey
Thank you my friend in Turkey!
I love cooking , and learning the ways of primitive people .... ur a perfect mixture of both .... quality videos which not clickbaot ... awesome XD
Thank you, I appreciate it.
Es increíble todo lo que se puede hacer sin tecnología, sigue así:v.
Se puede hacer todo lo importante
Gracias por este lindo vídeo amigo,se me hace más llevadera la cuarentena acá en Chile y me relaja.Realmente los hotcakes de harina de Bellota y frutos silvestres debe quedar deliciosos 💪💪💪👏👏👏👏😀
Gracias por acompañarme en este video. Me encanta comer hotcakes de bellotas porque siento que contienen mucha nutrición de una calidad mucho más de cualquier producto parecido de la tienda.
Just like great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great grandma used to make.
Hahaha! That was a long time ago.
I am beyond impressed. This, with a bit more clothing, is near the simple life I long for. We press our thumbs and forefingers into a diamond to blow start fires, but I'd bet your bamboo tube would be great with a slitted cap.
More clothing coming soon!
Muy buena idea de los panqueques 🥞
Very good idea of the pancakes 🥞
Me encanta esta comida
Only b.c kids will remember those times...
Is anyone getting any asmr vibes from this man and his food making
Totally ASMR
amazing living
Yes
I love the way there’s no voice so you make your own in your mind
Damn he looks so sad🥺I wonder what he's thinking while he waits for it to cook
Awesome
Como mujer le admiro lo que haces para tener todos los incredientes elaborar lo que se come realmente un buen ejemplo como puede sobrevivir con esas frutas felicitaciones buen canal 🌎🌴
Yo también lo admiro
This is amazing! Absolutely amazing!
If this is the last video at the hut,what a kind of adventure you lookin for now? have a nice return Chad!
New hut!
@@ChadZuberAdventures same kind of nature? can't wait for the next video man :)
Different location and different nature
Amazing content like always Chad,your videos inspired me to go again to the gym and eating healthy food after spending years of bad habits in eating and broken routine. I really see the world with another eyes now and you helped me a lot without even knowing what it makes it even more exciting. Keep up your epic work bro'.✌.
Thanks so much for sharing this with me! Messages like yours are what fuel me the most to keep going. Stay strong and if you are on IG you can send me a direct message and maybe I can share with you more specific tips.
Приезжайте в Россию, здесь тоже экстремально! Добро пожаловать!
This is better therapy than money can buy
The way his chest moves when he's grinding the berries is scary. Like some alien monster wants to crawl out from inside his skin.
Dunno about u but it seems pretty normal
It's just a pectoral muscle in action
@@ChadZuberAdventures Have you experienced Facehuggers recently? Hahahahaha
What are facehuggers??
@@ChadZuberAdventures they are alien spiders with a tail and cover your face and infects you then a baby xenomorph bursts out of your stomach
I love your videos, keep u the good work 💪
Thank you so very much!
Love this channel and how knowledgeable you are in regards to living out in nature. I was wondering something which you've most likely explained in previous QAs, but why do you never speak in your vids?
I speak in some videos. It's a different style to not speak. More cinematic. The natural sounds are emphasized when the tongue is silent.
I will miss the little hut but I'm excited to see what you build at your new location.
Chad wife: honey can you make jimmy breakfest im so tired today...
Chad: yes of course.....
The breakfest:
Haha! Then Jimmy goes hungry
Greetings from Russia. I think your recipes for food will be needed to survive in this country.
I think so too!
I'm really curious about the taste of those healthy pancakes.
prolly taste like shit
@@villiamspencer1554 no need to be negative man he just curious
They taste pleasant to me however most humans would not like them because they lack a lot of sugar.
@@carmonaandrea i was just being funny, i would also like to try them
@@villiamspencer1554 not funny didn't laugh
Impresionante todo lo que haces amigo y tanta sabiduría, eres digno de admiración.
Muchísimas gracias por tu comentario
Chad zuber i have a question how do you make sure the food you make is sanitized and ready for human consumption.
Fire
Fire is a good way to sanitize. Remember, this is not a downtown city slum with high concentrations of humans. Most infectious diseases are found in urban areas.
extremely calming videos!
People out there can learn alot from you
If they want to
@Chad Zuber I myself have learned alot
I'm so happy about that! Keep learning!
@@ChadZuberAdventures do you still have your puppy that used to be in your videos with you
Yes, he's at home with the family. He's coming back soon.
You are just addicting to watch, love your videos
I bet these Acorn Pancakes taste really good!
They're pretty good
Cool!
WOW! Your getting better at this and those look great. Let God bless you, chad.
Also, after reading desc, are you really leaving the hut? You would be missed. Or is just a small trip
Thanks a lot! Yes, the hut is finished. I'm going to move to another place and create a new settlement there. You will see in the near future.
@@ChadZuberAdventures Alright, the hut has been great, but you do what you want. Can't wait to see how it goes.
This dude is on a whole nother level
Will you make primitive syrup, or harvest some in a video in the future?
There are many trees that are sap producing that taste delicious including fruit trees!
@@Nsaf_UKR Thats awesome! Sometimes you dont need to look that hard to find some tasty foods in nature huh?
I would like to but I'm not aware of sweet sap trees in this region.
Primitive dude is back, nice
When i'm too lazy to make cookies mehhh... ^^'
I don't have all day to make two pancakes, but it's fun to watch you make them.
Can someone tell me, what let’s play ep he gets full enchanted netherite armor pls
I'm always glad to see you in good health👍🙏 bon appetit Chad
I'm sure that it's was very tasty 😋

Hola Chad, me pregunto: ¿Todo lo grabas y luego vas a tu casa a editar y subir los vídeos?
Así es. No hay de otra.
O valla si te respondio😱😱
@@kevindanielsotelosanchez8700 yo también me quedé sorprendido la verdad xd
This video shows our ancestors didn't need any gym equipment to stay fit, internet to be connected to the world and money to buy anything. And we - modern human even can't imagine life without them!
I have an idea / challenge for ur next vid - why dont you try and make a mrimitive blade out of stone or bone and try and cut ur hair lol
I made a small one recently. I didn't do a video. I use it as a cutting tool. You'll see it soon.
@@ChadZuberAdventures ok :)
@@ChadZuberAdventures have u tried cutting ur hair in the past??! Lol 😆
this, is the beauty of life

You are the first one congrats xd
