@@carlam.9529 It is $4.00 USD. I bought the e-cookbook, and I think it is well worth the money.
@@carlam.9529 My pleasure. Have a great day.
Love your channel-grew up in the foot of the Blue Ridge mountains in VA just north of the NC border. Had a lot of the same food from my grandparents and loved it. Glad I found your channel!
Seeing that bowl you mixed the cobbler in unlocked a memory deep from my childhood! I wonder what happened to that thing..
I loved this video lol.
Thank you for sharing your recipes with us Hun & your home grown & canned pickled beets look so good. They've always been one of my favorite veggies.
There's nothing like the beautiful sound of cornbread batter hitting that hot oil in the skillet lol.
Have you ever tried pouring a little bit of cold cream on your black berry cobbler?
It'll make you reconsider your ice cream option with your cobbler lol it tastes so good with a little bit of sugar in it with just touch of vanilla.
I also like to do my roasts & stews with root veggies like turnips, parsnips, rutabagas, carrots, potatoes, onions & garlic, sometimes mushrooms, I also use McCormick Montreal Steak Seasoning to season my meat & I like to quarter my garlic cloves, cut slits into both sides of the roasts & stick a garlic quarter into the slits in the meat & 2 or 3 bay leaves in with the roasts & stews.
I also like a little Lee & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce on top of my roasts & a little in with the water in the bottom.
It really boosts the flavor of your roasts & stews & veggies.
I clean, peel & cut up my root veggies in nice big chunks put some on the bottom of the crock pot, season them with Montreal Steak Seasoning & then put the roast on top of them with the rest of the veggies around the sides of the roasts.
The drippings that are left make a perfect thin gravy to pour over the root veggies & slices of roast.
The root veggies have a whole different taste after cooking all day with roasts & stews.
When you do roasts & stews like that it retains the vitamins & minerals in the root veggies instead of losing them all in boiling water.
It diminishes the sulfur taste in the turnips & rutabagas & it just brings out their sweetness & has such a great flavor.
I created this years ago & ever since then I've never made any other kind of roasts or stews, my kids all grown now, always ask me to make them when they're here.
Please, if you ever try my recipes for my roasts & stews let me honestly know what you think about them.
Fall is just around the corner & these are definitely Fall & Winter comfort foods & are especially good the next day if you have any left that is lol.
With my 5, 1 girl & four boys the big pots would be empty by the end of dinner lol, especially when I made my big pots of greens & cornbread lol.
I can't wait for this extreme heat to go away so I can make these again lol.
This is the perfect meal for a a cold winter day. I love stewed turnips, the whole meal says summer. I really enjoyed you and Matt cleaning up the kitchen together. I can tell he helps you in the kitchen too. Much love and prayers for you and your family
Thanks so much 😀

👋♥️🙏♥️👋I love the combination of your veggies and a tender delicious roasted meat. Turnips and green beans OMG. The best of the best and added carrots goodness wish I’d have been there with y’all to have the delicious repast. Love y’all. You are a blessing to see always. 👋♥️🙏♥️👋J
i love to see the two of you moving in the room together so comfortable. my husband died a long time ago. thank you for sharing this beautiful meal with us. every blessing.
That is sweet when a man helps wife in kitchen. My son-in-law helps my daughter. He is an extra son for me.
A few things....OH MY to see that cobbler still bubbling and releasing steam made my mouth water! When you had to get the crunchy side from the cobbler, I could feel the texture go from my memory to my mouth! Peach is my favorite! Lastly to see the deer hunter help with dishes just warms my heart. My sweet man helps me too and we catch up then relax together after a long day or do a few chores that just can't wait for the weekend. Supper looked delicious!
My grandmother grew up in East Tennessee and this is an exact meal she would often cook. I miss her so much. When I cook this stuff with my kids, I feel like I am telling a story about her.
Got to love a man who washes dishes.
I don’t think there is anything as internally satisfying as feeding a hungry, hard-working husband after a long day. Wonderful meal, Tipper!! God bless 💕
So glad to know I am not the only one that loves raw turnips! I absolutely live them raw or cooked and the greens cooked with some bacon or fat back mmm Doesn't get any better!
I do love them 😀
@@CelebratingAppalachia the short ones are good too. 😉
@@CelebratingAppalachia I ate raw growing up. The cabbage core to. I wouldnt have anything to do w cooked turnips but begged for a raw one. Yum. I do like turnip greens mixed with mustards. Yumy
I love raw turnips too.
My goodness Tipper! You have had a very busy day of uploads. Thank you for your dedication to sharing mountain heritage, you & your beautiful family are a gift to all of us! Sending everyone lots of 🤗,💜 & 🙏🏻 for a healthy, happy & Blessed week ahead!
Thank you Rebecca! I was experimenting with the short ones 😀
@@CelebratingAppalachia the short ones are good too . I use lard in my cornbread.
@@CelebratingAppalachia
Practice makes perfect.
Now THAT’S what suppers ought to be! And those crispy edges are just divine.. 💯🇺🇸❣️
And you know it was super good when your husband walks into the kitchen & provides a
good post-supper burp. Lol 😆
😀 Thank you!
Yes, I know that post-supper burp too...makes a good wife happy. I think it will be one of the sounds I will miss if Cliff passes before I do.
Southern cooking, for sure! ❤️
😀 Thank you for watching!
loved watching Matt wash up the dishes while you cleaned the rest of the kitchen! noticed he got the coffee pot ready for morning! you got ya a real good man there...loved the blueberry cobbler making. I've tried turnips in a veggie soup, really couldn't tell the difference between the turnips and the potatoes. Always put onions in my roast, too. thanks for sharing supper with us!
Thank you! He's a good one!
As do i Onions a must !!
Yes, Matt helped even though he worked a public job all day. I'm so glad God blessed your Family. Love turnips and rutabagas. I bet those turnips would have been so good in the crock pot with the Roast too.
That whole video is just so sweet makes me wanna cry. Yal are so nice to bring people into such a simple but lovely event in your home. Just a story book! ❤️🥰
You are so kind-thank you 😀
Thanks Tipper. That looked like a wonderful meal! And watching Matt do the dishes made my day. I love turnips and was going to tell you about the time I was sneaking a turnip out of my neighbor's garden when I was about 10 and getting caught. He was nice and said any time I wanted one to come and get it. But then you made the upside down blackberry cobbler and it brought back memories. When my hubby and I got together for our first Thanksgiving I made one from blackberries I had picked from almost at the top of Cullowee Mountain.Those blackberries were huge! They were as big as my thumb and sweet as could be. So I canned as many as I could. Needless to say he was impressed with the cobbler. That was over 36 years ago. To this day he says it was the best cobbler he's ever had. Much Love
Love that!
Jan penland I snuck in my neighbors garden to get carrots all the time when I was around 10 or 12
I was finally able to watch to the end. So sweet when your husband complemented you on the lovely meal :)
😀
Definitely one of my favorite meals: pot roast with carrots, potatoes, and onions. I do like my turnips mashed. Love fresh green beans. You are a wonderful cook! ❤️
This has been a regular meal my entire life by me, my momma, grandma, great granny, & now my daughter. The extra long cooked green beans with bacon/fatback and a bit of onion are SO good! Its a shame people don't know how yummy they are & I love getting people hooked on our way of cooking them. Only differences are we roast our fresh beets, turnips, & radish in the oven instead of using the canned ones. I also add creamed corn to my cornbread to make it super moist & melt butter over the top right out of the oven. I always add brown gravy mix to my roast while it's cooking❤
Wonderful video Brought back many memories of my Aunt Bertha and her cooking. Thanks for your gentle ways and lovely voice.
How could we love Matt more? He even helps Tipper with dishes, Wow.
This time of year our garden is covered with 3 feet of snow. I'm so happy for you, Tipper, and a little bit envious, that you are still able to harvest your fall crops. What a treat that must be! Few things are more satisfying than growing your own food and eating it fresh. We love turnips and rutabaga, but ours were harvested in late October before they were buried in snow. They're still ok, but nothing like eating them fresh. Thank goodness the girls bombed their vocab test!
One of my earliest memories is going with my dad to my great grandmother’s house. We pulled some turnips and their tops. I remember how dad cut me one right there in the garden. The chilly air and the crisp sweet raw turnip. Dad would peel them and leave the stalk on them to be eaten like a turnip lollipop. Grandma Beat would make them soupy too. She would add a tad of sugar, salt and a right smart of pepper. We would eat them over biscuits. We always said Grandma Beat could cook shoe leather and we would eat it. She was the oldest of ten and had to start cooking at ten years old to help her mama. Thank you for bringing back precious memories once again. Have a good week.
What wonderful memories 😀
Nice to see your husband helping ! What a beautiful meal !
Love all the different vegetables you included in the meal.
I love watching you cook, so sweet your husband helps you clean up. Good man.
I'll say... Matt can put down some vittles! Great to see him show his appreciation for your great cooking.
Thank you Neil 😀
@@CelebratingAppalachia 🍴😋👍 always look forward to that down home cooking!
That was so nice to watch and seeing Matt eating and helping you was real fine ❤
Hey Tipper and Matt. I love turnips. I'm the only one in my family that ate them so only got them at Thanksgiving. I have to say that meal is the definition of "real food". Be well and God Bless. (Matt was right about the ice cream LOL)
Thank you John 😀
I have never had a turnip! Ever! I really want to try them but they are very expensive here. A 5 lb bag of potatoes is 2.99, turnips are 10.00 a pound!
Have y'all ever had a rutabaga turnip? My Mother cut the up and cooked them with some bacon grease. She mashed them like potatoes. They are hard to peel, but great to eat.
I also lie ketcup on my turios
I love that you say "supper."" I'm always asking my adult daughter when she got so uppity that she called the evening meal "dinner." Lately, every time she forgets and says "dinner," she laughs and says, "Excuse me, Mom. Supper!" Your green beans look exactly like mine! I use "middlin'" to season mine. We have to find someone in the community who kills hogs to get it, but I always have it. It's so good. Looks pretty much like what you used. That's the exact cobbler I make. Such a beautiful meal!
I have never said dinner in my life, was and is eating supper...lol. must be a west virginia meal...
@@stevespencer6064., it's definitely an Eastern Kentucky thing too!
Thank you so much! I'm 64 and my Mother always said supper.
You've given me the courage to try cooking turnips! my husband loves them but I don't have fond memories of eating them as a child, I do'n't think I ever had them prepared nicely. I"m gonna try now!
Sometimes I add rutabaga to the turnips.
Thank you SO MUCH for sharing your evening meal with us Tipper. I needed that. I miss my family. Grandpa & grandma passed and the entire household scattered. I miss just the common family meal like this.
❤
I have not eaten turnips since I was a girl at my great-grandmother’s house in Delaware. Your videos so often transport me to another place and time in my life. Thank you!
That's great to see Matt helping clean up after dinner. Especially after a hard day at work.
Thanks for bring us along for super. It looked great and I felt like I could almost taste the different foods.
Glad you enjoyed it 😀
My Mom's Daddy was from Estill. Now I know why I love this kind of country cooking!
And that blackberry cobbler looked good 😍 Very nice of Matt helping clean the kitchen up
I love seeing you harvest food from your garden. I live in a condominium so I don't have a garden. I love to see yours so much.
My grandpa and l would eat Turnips in the field,while checking on the cows', Bring back memories ', l am almost 88 ', All l have is memories, Loving my Lord',
Tipper, I love cooked turnips too! I will tell you that my first exposure to turnips was a bit different. Maybe some of your other viewers enjoyed them this way too. When I was a small child, Daddy would wash a turnip real good and cut the top off of it. Then he would take a regular teaspoon and start to scrape the white "meat" out until the spoon was full of juicy turnip and then he would give me that bite. Then he'd scrape out a bite for himself...back and forth until the turnip was just like a little empty bowl! I thought this was grand eating! He taught my daughter the same way when she was little. She carried that "recipe" with her into her adulthood!
Love that Rita 😀
The truest statement you have ever said from the garden taste better than any you get from a store.
It's so rewarding to grow food 😀
I think that’s it’s Neat the way Matt helps you with the Dishes.
Made me nostalgic, hungry, and laugh all in the same video....lol😊
The first time I ate turnips was as a young man. I volunteered to help do some firewood and general cleanup for a brother & sister that lived together at the base of a mountain in a small house and they never had electricity. They were in their 80's and it was amazing how well they did without electricity. As a show of gratitude she cooked us Corned beef (venison) & cabbage with turnips along with fresh baked bread from the cookstove, then washed it down with fresh milk from the springhouse. I've always liked that meal ever since and it reminds me of them. Many times I feel us "modern" folks could sure learn a thing or two from the generation that had to live like that, and thrived. They had one cow and several chickens and a couple of ponds filled with small but delicious fish. Watching your videos bring back so many memories from peoples past. Thank you for sharing your stories with us.
This would have been Sunday dinner in my family. Weekday suppers were simple affairs prepared in under an hour. If my mother had cooked like this during the week I'd have never moved out. Come to think about it, if I'd cooked like this during the week I might still be married. LOL!
Growing up, with my grandma.. this here, every single thing you made. My grandma would make on Sundays. Except, my grandpa had to have a fresh cut onion though.
Thank you for making this. It took me straight back to my child hood. I could seriously smell and taste this video... I miss my grandma
Pop-pop always planted a patch of turnips and one of kale after the summer garden was done to have for fall and early winter. I only eat turnips raw, peeled and sliced, but not with salt. I like their clean bitter-sweet taste as they come. Mom-mom cooked potatoes and turnips in two pots. Pop-pop would mash them together on his plate and pour some pot liquor from cabbage or green beans over the mash. I am envious of your glass baking dish. The molded decorations in the glass are beautiful , and, its a good, large sized example. The pot roast looked scrumptious. I was given gift certificates this Christmas to a local farm that raises and butchers heirloom breeds of cattle, hogs and sheep. I'm definitely going to get a nice chuck roast to make pot roast when I redeem the certificates.
Good! I needed an idea for supper! Thanks for cooking!♥️🌻☮️‼️🤗
You are so welcome!
Our southern heritage is so wonderful and so is our food !!
So very thankful I was born in the South 💗
Love n Hugs from the North Ga. Mountains
Tipper- I feel like I am back in my mothers kitchen when you cook. I didn't appreciate turnips until I got about 17 or 18 years old. But I sure love them now. And you said it right, "soupy" turnips are the best!! And we also, eat cornbread "daily". Matt washing dishes is really a blessing...
Thank you 😀 He's a good one to help out.
Ooooooo that sizzle! Fan the aroma over here.
😀
We grew turnips when I was a teenager. We would pick the tender greens and have a mess quite often and then we would eventually have turnip roots. I never liked them much cooked, but I loved to eat them raw. That looks like a really good dinner--your family is blessed to have you cook for them!
Tipper that looked like a fine meal. I don't recall eating turnips, but I love pickled beets. My momma cooked her green beans with salt pork & sliced onion. Now (in my 60's) I finally like cooked carrots. Funny how our taste changes. BlackBerry cobbler, yum. Also peach/blackberry when the berries are fresh. Thank you.
UA-cam needs to invent Smell-o-vision so that we can savor the great aromas coming from these homecooked meals.
I don't recall ever having turnips. But you've sure made me think about ordering some seeds & putting some in my early & late garden. Thanks so much, I absolutely love celebrating & learning about Appalachia with you ☕💐
Matt is brutally honest. A cabbage with dirt. Amen, Matt!
A lovely, charming southern family!
God Bless Y'all.
All of that real food looks really good!
this woman deserves her own tv show
😀
What a wonderful supper. And left over cornbread for the glass of milk later. Great video. God Bless yall.
I just love the way you cook because it takes me back to my childhood. You remind me so much of my precious mother. I miss her so much. Thank you for your videos.
I grew up in western Kentucky, my mom was born in Grayson County but did live in Louisville as a child, too. That's as far east as she ever got, but I swear she cooks just like you do. And it's always been delicious.
That looks interesting. Kinda funny what Matt said about the taste of turnips.
I was hungry before watching! Now, I am starving. Looks so delicious. I wish I could find home made pickled beets at a farmers market around here.
😀
I like cast iron skillets. My mom and grandma always used them. When i visited Valle cruces near boone NC i saw some at their local mercantile store. Love that place because they have all kinds of root beer candies. Your roast looks amazing.
As a young boy, I’d never eat the turnips, only their juice over cornbread. Now I love them both. Mashed turnips like you do potatoes are so good!
Wonderful meal. Thanks for the revioes.
that crunch and color on the cast iron skillet baked corn bread is just heavenly!!
Watching you cook brings back memories of watching my mother cook. I get so hungry for country food after watching your videos keep up the good work
My distant relatives moved from Appalachia to Texas in about 1865. We eat similarly prepared foods. During the week as a child, we did not eat meat but ate a lot of beans and potatoes and cornbread..
Tipper, you did a great job on that delicious looking supper. It looks very much like so many meals I've eaten over the years. Appalachian food is just wonderful.
Very pretty casserole dish and everything looks delious. We love turnips thank you for sharing ❤
My grandmother used to make these same green beans. They are good.
A feast fit for a king! Everything looked wonderful and especially appealing with this cold weather we're having!
Thank you! Mrs. Georgie Webb, from our church, would bring stewed turnips to every pot luck. I would bring 7 layer salad (Pea Salad) and Cucumber and Onion salad. Since her passing, I have brought her stewed turnups; just as a reminder. God Bless and stay safe. EDIT: Fowl up a good cobbler with store bought Ice Cream- great.
"Tastes like summer" - that is exactly what I think when I'm eating my home canned peaches during the winter months!
Loved the No Bake Chocolate Oatmeal cookies. That is a keeper! Thank you.
That whole dinner looked amazing! You two are too cute together! Loved this video! Now I have to make a cobbler and turnips! Thanks for sharing!!!
Talk about marriage goals!! 🙌🏽
What a wonderful meal! Unfortunately I've found that I'm allergic to corn and I miss cornbread something awful. I grew up eating all the cornbread. Our special treat was to have some warm cornbread in a glass with milk, sometimes with a little sprinkle of sugar on top. Our favorite budget meal was fried cornbread with beans and greens.
You mentioned soupy potatos. I grew up with "souped" potatos. Boiled potatos were quartered potatos that were seasoned with salt and butter while cooking. Souped potatoes were diced potatoes put on to boil with salt, pepper, butter, diced onion, and a little milk. I had totally forgotten about them until you mentioned the soupy potatoes!
I like how Matt shows his plate to the camera all the time. He appreciates all of your hard work. You two make a very good team!
Thank you so very much for sharing about such a delicious home-cooked meal! It brought back so many memories. Growing up, we had "Greasy Beans," which was green beans stewed with potatoes and a meat, such as bacon or ham. For Thanksgiving, my mom made 'Turnip Sauce," which was turnips and potatoes mashed up together with milk and served with either gravy or butter. Both dishes were yummy - my favorite being "Greasy Beans !" Thank you once again and may you & your family have a blessed day!
There's nothing like a good, plain, home cooked meal. Very nicely done. Love from Baltimore to you and your family. 🥰🥰
You taught me something. I made corn bread the other day and I heated the iron frying pan in the oven before adding the batter and baking it. The bottom and sides got nicr and crisp and brown.
😀
Oh my goodness that all looks delicious 😋.
Yum what a great meal. You always make me hungry Tipper 🍇🥕
I'm from the coast of NC, we have similar recipes but I love watching your videos! Very informative and entertaining :)
Thank you 😀
I just watched the video that you used the new bbq from Christmas to make a most delightful supper. I had to chuckle as you had almost finished the meal and the two of you were naming and remembering all the treats you liked from youth. I didn't think you could eat anymore and then along came the ice cream with "gravy". It was such a delightful video. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you 😀
I love turnips now that's the meals that my grandmother use to cook every day when we use to farm
We never had turnip when I was growing up. When I was 30 years old, my step-mother had turnip as one of the sides for our Thanksgiving dinner and I have been in love with turnip ever since!
Always enjoy your videos. They are all a true blessing. I have my mom's Texas ware bowl just like yours. God bless you and all your family. Psalms 91:1
Sincerely.. Minister Mark from Culpeper , VA
Thank you!
My sister used to boil or fry turnips for supper. I never knew it was a southern food. I think they taste like potatoes and radish. Sister put a little butter on the top.
That looks like the perfect winter meal. I love turnips, they make a change of pace from having potatoes now and again. I also can my own beet pickles and am a beet fanatic, watching this made me sneak into the pantry and grab a jar as a bedtime snack
😀
Tipper, you left out one main thing!!!! The INVITATIONS! LOL,,, Mercy what a meal! I promise you, if you send them out WE will come! :) Each dish you made was amazing from the time you started it til it was sitting in front of us. Nothing beats home grown and home cooked.. You're the BEST and Deer Hunter I know appreciates you! Send us more yummies to enjoy please! :) ps You may have to explain to some folks when dinner is. LOL
😀
Sunday pot roast. My favorite !
😀
Sorry Tipper, you answered my question in your video here, I just stop when things pop in my head and type, LOL! Thank you so much for being kind enough to answer me earlier. Melissa Faith.
Glad to help! 😀
I so enjoy watching you cook, reminds me of my grandma, she was originally from Kentucky and my grandfather from Georgia.
That blackberry cobbler brought back memories of growing up N.C. , I would pick them & mom would make a cobbler or a blackberry sonker (not sure if I spelled that correctly) but I loved them both. Blackberries don’t grow up here. The meal looked like one my mom might would fix. 😋Thanks Tipper for the videos ♥️
That supper is the best of the best.
Your family are fortunate that you are such a good cook.
