    Thanks Jordan, my mum recently passed away (she was only 50) and I’m struggling as a young 20’s to be able to stay within a budget especially for food for an entire household as my dad isn’t coping well with the passing of my mum and I’ve never had to have this responsibility. Your tips are helping us so much x

      @borkbork4124 2 роки тому +21

      I am sorry for your loss.
      When my mother moved away I started cooking for my dad and I because he has dietary restrictions. It is not easy, and so I have followed a lot of what Jordan has taught in this video and previous videos. We lived in a small 2 bedroom apartment for a few years so food storage and space overall was small. Always do what you can at the end of the day, so dont beat yourself up over making exceptions to the grocery rules. We still have a small freezer so only the big ticket items like meat and freezer meals are in there. Since, my dad bought a small house, so the kitchen got an upgrade. I am leaving for university soon so even though I am already equipped with this info, cooking for one will be a learning curve.
      Her best tip I have used is shelf cooking! It keeps me from neglecting any of the sale items I stocked up on from previous grocery runs.

    Where you live, do you have local farmers? We finally bought our first 1/4 cow from a local farmer. It was an incredible deal, such delicious meat, it’ll feed our fam of 6 for a year, and we used our money to support a local farmer and butcher. I can’t believe I waited so long to try this! Yes it’s an investment up front, but it is saving us in the long run.

    Being the holder of the family purse strings has never been a popular job, but with the uncertainty of supply and rocketing costs we have even more of a challenge and a dounting one at that.
    Never underestimate the peace of mind in a well stocked and organised kitchen.
    And you can make it look glamorous too X

      Look for under bed storage containers, space saving vaccum bags for out of season clothes, and over the door storage. These are some of the things that my family of 5 has done.

    • @KT_37
      @KT_37 2 роки тому +5

      Just like Quiana said vacuum bags are a life saver! Dollar Tree has vacuum seal bags for a $1 and during the holidays vacuum saver bags always go on sale.
      Out of season clothes vacuum seal them and store the vacuum sealed bags in suitcases. Tip I found to use every inch of space in the suitcase is put the empty bag in the suitcase then fill it and suck the air out inside the suitcase. Where do you put the suitcases of out of season clothes think of using a day bed with a bed skirt instead of a couch in the living rom because you would be amazed the amount of storage you gain!
      Old suitcases you can get very cheap or free. These are the absolute greatest storage tool.
      I use old suitcases as my pantry as well and store them under the beds that also have bed skirts. If you need more space under the bed buy bed risers and raise the bed up.
      I hope these tips help you

      When we lived in an apartment, We put our small chest freezer in our coat closet sideways so the cord was sticking out to plug in. Also the cleaning/bathroom towel closet in the hallway had laundry and cleaning on bottom but canned items on the rest of the shelf with the broom in the corner of the kitchen (those was the only two closets in the house).

      What I did, I make shelfs close to the ceiling. From Costco I collect STRONG boxes ( even if only one side is strong) I cut in pieces and with ducktape and regular tape created custom size boxes. I bought a contact paper I like from Amazon and make them look pretty. Evebody always asked where I get those wood boxes which perfectly fit my shelfs. I just smile. There I store extra food. Looks good , keeps organized, cost very low. If any box worn out, just make another one.

We've kept that for the past several years and I'm still finding bargains.

    More fatty beef ends up being way less meat after it is all cooked . So a pound of lean beef is still a pound of beef. A pond of 73% beef is 3/4 of a pound after it is cooked.

    Great video! Have you ever considered learning to pressure can? I can 25 to 30% of the meat we buy. It’s awesome! It’s all pre-cooked, it’s all shelf stable, so super fast to go from jar to table. Plus I never have to worry about electricity going out or a deep freezer pooping out on me and losing hundreds or thousands of dollars of food for our family. We are a family of eight and I put up 400 to 500 jars a year of meat and vegetables that I buy on discount at the grocery store. Cannot tell you how much money it saves you and how convenient it is. It’s a little bit of work upfront, especially when you have young kids to look after (ours are all 8 and under so the house is basically a zoo almost days lol) but it’s well worth it!

Do you cook it then pressure seal it?

With chicken, as an example, can be used in chicken stir fry, chicken salad for sandwiches, chicken pot pie, chicken soup...and the list can go on and on. Hamburger can be used in scramble hamburger subs, Shepard's pie, and spaghetti sauces. Canning meats free up spacez in the freezer and allows you to take advantage of sales.

      I have the same problem of lack of space, small house, no pantry, no garage. Raising our bed is not an option because we got an Ikea bed with drawers underneath for our clothes because our bedroom has no room for dressers. Luckily we have a basement, but we have to limit any storage there to things that can handle humidity, so no boxed or dry items. Most of the time, we can't even afford to stock up even if we had the space. It's tough.

    Just bumped into your page. Great tips!! My husband and I love Costco and when we come home with a produce, I immediately separate and store in the freezer. We purchased a chest freezer and put it in the garage. It comes in handy.

    Glad you’re back! I’ve definitely been stockpiling a bit lately. I agree to an extent with brands not mattering. With certain products I feel like they do, depending on where you shop certain stores brand items taste off.

    I love shopping at Walmart Supercenter. The store chain usually sold the large Plochman's mustard squeeze bottles. They're still sold by the Kroger store chain. The Walmart chain still sells the "French's mustard, Heinz ketchup, Kraft honey barbecue sauce & Mrs. Butterworth's pancake syrup" squeeze bottles that I occasionally buy.

    I live alone so I normally cook at least a double batch of everything and freeze individual meals that are ready to pop into the oven. I had my shoulder replaced a year ago and worked really hard over a 3 week time to get meals cooked and frozen. The day I had my surgery I had 104 meals in the freezer. There was over 20 different items. I also had cooked and shredded chicken that I could fix in a multitude of ways. Also, cooked ground beef in ziplock bags. I even made a huge batch of homemade scalloped potatoes in cheese sauce. I packaged this in freezer bags and froze them flat for easy stacking. I had beef and chicken enchiladas... several Italian meals. Meatballs and meatloaf ready to pop in the oven... a full package of French bread already buttered and seasoned with garlic. I always do this. I lay the pieces of bread on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper until frozen then store in a freezer bsg. Cooking for one surely has to be as challenging as cooking for a large family. Waste can be a real problem.

    Good to see you back, I'd wondered where you'd been. After becoming disabled and pretty much housebound I can't go out and shop sales any more and I miss that. I have to use a delivery service through Walmart, but still shop online for the best prices they have. I've found their house brand, Great Value, is just about as good as a brand name for the most part, and much cheaper. Target has free shipping for most things when the order is over $35, and some good, cheaper store brands.

BJ's is free delivery after $75 and free if your able to do curbside 🛻 pickup!. I'll look into Target here. I wish you the best & I'll have you in my prayers 🙏🏾

    5:10 I am studying food science and some of my peers are just NOW learning this!
    Food processing is all the same in regards to these simple ingredient items. If they have different ingredients, the label on the back is what will inform you of those details, NEVER the brand name or the hollow claims like “natural” and “clean.” If the FDA or other organization overseeing food quality does not define it, then the word or claim means nothing. And, those words like “organic” and “cage free” have very SPECIFIC definitions: I believe the USDA organic stamp demonstrates at least 95% of the product is organic, not 100%.
    8:29 Another example: The label on that meat “USDA Choice” IS a legitimate claim. Choice is the grade of meat. The top 3 are prime, choice, and select, prime being the highest.

    I'm obsessed with mustard and ketchup that I love to squeeze on my hotdogs, cheeseburgers and sometimes hash browns. I sometimes squeeze honey barbecue sauce on my hash browns. I love to squeeze mustard and ketchup into my small condiment cup and stir 'em altogether so I can dip my fries.

    More comfortable does like this please! Single subscriber so I am in awe if how you and others do it! I do not have a pantry so I have had to designate a couple of my cabinets for food storage as well as using a small rolling pantry type cart. I also keep a small freezer in addition to the freezer space in my refrigerator. It allows me to stock up when items go on sale. Although I am single I am absolutely fascinated by channels like yours and others similar to it. I just don't know how you do it! Definitely knowing your prices in your area is key to saving money. You have to know if prices you see on the large multi packs at a club store is a good deal or more or less than what you can get at your local grocery stores. And I definitely agree about haunting your local grocery stores for lost leaders and stocking up when a sale happens. Thanks Jordan would definitely love to see more videos like this!

    What I do for storage, I have containers I bought from dollar tree and I put snacks and other dry ingredients into those. They stack so much easier then the original boxes, and it saves room. For cold stuff, what I am doing currently because we just moved into a new house and it is still winter outside, I have my freezer stuff sitting in a tote on my front porch lol, but that is only until we get our other fridge/freezer from our old house into our new one. I also went to goodwill and bought this rundown old hutch that use to have glass on the doors but doesn't anymore, I have my canned foods and potatoes on the shelves and my containers of dried goods on top of it (don't worry, it is sturdy enough). In our new house (built in 1910), there is a small little nook that historically was used as a dining room, but that is not doable for my family, so we use it as our pantry (which hold the hutch and soon the fridge/freezer). In our last house, it was a 1970's mobile home trailer with absolutely no cupboards, drawers, closets, nor shelves when we moved in; we went to yard sales and bought a display shelf/case that I used for dishes, small appliances, and other dry goods. My husband used apple barrels to build shelves in a corner of the kitchen too, which we also used as shelves for dry foods. It took a lot of trial and error to figure out what was going to fit where, so we couldn't buy in bulk at that time (plus we ended up developing a mouse infestation, so I couldn't bring myself to buy bulk because it would all just ruined. Now we have moved into a house we just bought and I can bulk shop again). Now we live in a different house, that we just bought a week ago, and we have a lot more space, maybe not to some but it is for us. Which means it's not as stressful to find spots for things, unless my husband tries to take over a place for his random stuff such as the utility closet.

When I have kids, they will be independent and have rules and if the rules aren’t followed, there will be consequences. Great job Jordan!!!!

We live in a small home with standard to smallish sized closets and a small pantry, in an area where it’s too hot to utilize the garage or attic (well over 100 deg for most of the year) and no basements because the water table is too high to dig one. I also have littles with allergies so I have to be very cautious with where I squirrel things away! 😅
