  • Smoke houses were used for smoking brain tanned hides, and meat and fish for preservation for winter consumption. The smoke house was already built, but Peter moves it to the 1700's settler's homestead. He discusses the history and evolution of the cast iron stove, including Benjamin Franklin's design. He also discusses Benjamin Thompson, better known as Count Rumford , who studied thermodynamics and used his knowledge to develop the Rumford fireplace, thereby greatly increasing the efficiency of open hearth fireplaces. After relocating the smoke house, Peter gives a tutorial on how to fasten the sash that was commonly used by the settlers. He then begins burning out a stump to use as a mortar for grinding food. He discusses the recipe for making traditional pemmican and other numerous methods for preserving food, including smoking, fermenting, dry salting and salt brining.
