    My grandma would take a WHOLE chicken put it in a crockpot and put a WHOLE jar of what she called Sweet and spicy peppers. Let it cook several hours until done. Then you have sweet and spicy chicken. It also make GREAT sandwiches the next day using the left over cold chicken.

Ever since I heard this saying I have loved it: anyone can count the seeds in an apple but only God can count the apples in a seed. You know, gardening keeps my sense of wonder so alive. A tiny seed produces a big plant and food and lots of it. And the food includes seeds for more food! God is so smart!

    My niece's 5-year-old (starting when he was 4) loves watching the "Kevin and Sarah Channel". If he sees me watching another UA-cam channel, it never fails that he will watch for a few seconds and then say, "That's not Kevin and Sarah. Let's watch Kevin and Sarah build something." He especially loved your last chicken tractor build. Sometimes I will randomly pick another channel just to watch him tell me it's not Kevin and Sarah. When he has the remote, he knows exactly how to find "Kevin and Sarah".

    I love to brush the liquid on chicken then throw on the grill. The smokiness of the charcoal pairs with the heat of the jalapenos so well. When cooked, we add a few more to the top. I also like to add a few red ripe jalapenos or bell peppers to give it a little extra color and is perfect for gifting at Christmas with the red and green.

    You know so much about gardening and canning. You will never have to go hungry, that for sure. My dad always had a great garden. I’m going to remember to put that fabric down on the garden from now on. I’m going to tell everyone I know that puts out a garden to do it too. Your garden looks amazing! It looks even better with that fabric put down. It kinda makes your garden look like a parking lot with amazing vegetables growing through the pavement. I had never seen it done until I started watching your channel. I noticed that you were even barefoot and still had clean feet 🦶.

    This year the first batch of pickles peppers I did I about choked to death and then had a cough for about a day and a half. I’ve been making my friends and family masks. So the next batch I wore a mask and it made a huge difference!

      I got a mask from Harbor Freight (P95) that is used for oils and aerosols. It works great. I had the same problem It was under $20.00 and so worth it.

      I feel your pain. My first year growing jalapenos I prepared and froze poppers - OMG I could hardly breath - I bought a bandana with flames and peppers just to wear for pepper projects. It helped but not as much as actual mask.

    • @mikefinley4367
      @mikefinley4367 3 роки тому +1

      As a former medical professional, unless a mask provides a firm seal around your nose and face it is useless against airborne viruses, you and airborne pneumonia. Also, the masks used are consider only effective for a short time as your breath create moisture and renders them ineffective. If you don't eat jalapenos regularly and become sick, they can be great for causing a immune response. I make chili with jalapenos in a five at crock and slit three habanero sinking them until they fidolve. It is usually more heat than many can handle but it helps purge you.

    • @mikefinley4367
      @mikefinley4367 2 роки тому

      @Chris B When sick with a cold or flu, it works best to eat the full strength of the peppers or make a high protein chili where you eat the fluids of the peppers. Hot enough to make you sweat, if your stomach can handle it . I have had drips of sweat literally run down from !y scalp. Allergies are a different matter than being sick. The jgetmsvof sickness can be driven out by this but a allergy is not caused by germs.

    I always find your videos helpful since we just live a few hours north of you. When we can, we always heat a small pan of water to boiling, turn it off and place our new canning lids in for 5 minutes to sterilize them and prepare the rubber seal. Also, with water bath canners, we always had a rack in the bottom of the canner so the glass jars didn't sit directly on the metal bottom of the pot. The water can then circulate under the jars being processed. That said, we discovered the Back to Basics steam canner a few years back and will never go back to water bath canning. (Foods requiring pressure, of course need to be in a pressure canner.) Steam canning is much easier to set up, requires less water, and heats up the kitchen less. Glad you're enjoying the Show-Me State. We're pleased that you moved here!

    • @LivingTraditionsHomestead

    My new favorite for cowboy candy is on grilled cheese sandwiches!!!! Also, when I sliced the peppers I had to buy a mask from Harbor Freight that is used for paint spray, ect. It's a P95 mask for solid and oil aerosols. I had problems with slicing because of the fumes and it affected my lungs for hours. I finally asked a lady in my class that makes pepper jellies professionally and she suggested the mask. It was under $20.00 and sooo worth it. Also, my original recipe calls for 2 Tablespoons of mustard seed. My peppers aren't ready yet. Still small :( Thank you for your wonderful videos.

      SILKS Family Farm You can leave it out, but after the first year, dirt and weed seeds will blow onto it and germinate and grow down through. Also, some will grow up through as well, especially in the holes where the pins are poked to hold it down. Also, it’s a good idea to amend the soil underneath with some kind of organic matter every year so the soil doesn’t compact too much.

    We add a couple of tablespoons of the syrup to our potato salad, use the syrup to can pineapple chunks. We call it cowboy pineapple. My husbands favorite is cowboy onions. Cook onions in the syrup until soft and then can.

    You mentioned doing your first batch of cowboy candy without cooking your peppers. That’s exactly what I did the first time I pickled banana peppers. Lol.
    Absolutely love all your videos. I was raised in that area on 100 acres-but my husband and I are just getting started on our own small homestead in Louisiana, after doing the corporate “expected thing,” (me) and the military (him). I want my children to grow up like I did, and understand how to do for yourself.
    I’m learning a ton from you, and remembering so much that I had forgotten. Thank you for sharing your wisdom! Bless your family!

    As soon as you said you were making something sweet and spicy with jalapeños, I knew it was going to be cowboy candy. I learnt what it was through another homesteading UA-cam couple at Simple Living Alaska. We’re not fans of super spicy, but I know that this recipe, minus the extra cayenne, would go down great on burgers in our house.

    Hi Sarah, congratulations for your awesome harvest!! Dear, if you want your jalapeños to abound more, perhaps you'd like to try experiment with a twist: we usually add sliced carrots, sliced onions and garlic to our jalapeños when we can them. The vegetables absorb some of the heat and taste delicious. We stirfry all the vegetables before filling the jars. You can also add bay leaves, thyme and a little salt to the mixture. We find it delicious!

    As a new gardener, I find the biggest challenges are: 1) Exactly when to harvest peas, beans, cucumbers, etc. 2) How to properly cook them. 3) How to freeze the excess for later cooking. As it is harvesting time for you, and if it is of interest, perhaps you could do some videos on those topics. Thanks!

      I do this with so many foods, including roughly mashed avocado with a swish of lemon juice. Found this to be the only successful way to freeze avocado. Cubes thaws out to be no different to fresh avocado in texture and taste.
