Here in the South, if you tell someone that you "love them better than biscuits and gravy", it meant true love. If someone tells you that they don't like biscuits and gravy, cut them out of your life. You don't need that kind of negativety. Thanks Santee for the video as always.
In Northern England, especially associated with Yorkshire, a similar batter mix called Yorkshire Pudding is served with thick onion gravy as a starter. The idea is a cheap filler so you eat less of the expensive bits afterwards. Truly delicious though.
@@51WCDodge I've had the honor of eating that. Thought it was great. However, the other options contained blood sausage, and I wasn't willing to try that at the time.
@@ArizonaGhostriders Ah you mean Black Pudding? For those not aware, frsh blood from the slaughtered pigs is mixed with oats,fat and spices, then slowly cooked and made into sausgae. I'm suprised that wasn't on the Old west Menu. very nutrious high in protein and fryed tastes delicous.. Keeps well. The old joke about any sausage, you may like them, but don't ever ask what makes them.
As a kid growing up in the 40's my breakfast (prepared by my grandma) consisted of a couple of fried eggs, a bowl of oat meal, two or three slices of toast with apple-butter and a glass of milk. Breakfast of champions! Grandma thought breakfast was the most important meal of the day.
Howdy, Santee. New old west enthusiast here. Well, fairly new anyway. Lived the ranch life in my younger days and wish to return to it one day. Love the videos and love the simpler ways of days gone by. Your videos give me a glimpse into a time to which I feel I belong. I tip my hat to you, sir.
I wonder what the old time cowboys would have thought of hot sage sausage for breakfast. I make my own from ground pork bought at a Mennonite farm, and I don't stint on the sage, black pepper and cayenne. The cream gravy I make from it is excellent on grits. And the sage sausage and gravy (on rice) is good for suppers, too. I know that line, "Slap some bacon on a biscuit, we're burning daylight" is from The Cowboys. Love any movies with John Wayne in them!
Yeah...in the morning on a ferry full english breakfast without beans.....I can't eat beans anymore....there were times when tomato beans was the only food I could afford twice a day ......
Hear hear! I don't often get to indulge in a breakfast such as that but I always enjoy it when I can. A good stick-to-your-bones kind of breakfast is just what a soul needs sometimes.
For breakfast according to Grandma when she was growing up with her aunts and uncles, her Grandma and Grandpa (my Great Grandma was a single mom, because my Great Grandpa died in mining accident). Breakfast was key for a good meal of the day. My Great Great Grandma made a spread toast, coffee, eggs, bacon, and pancakes. Because most of the family had to work in the morning. My Great Grandma had a lot of support from her family. There were eight siblings in her family. My Great Great Uncle used to work in the cargo ships distributing grain. He was supposed to rake the grain to even it out, while wearing mask. It was back breaking work. This was in Superior, Wisconsin near Duluth. A newspaper mentioned Great Great Grandpa Kelly, did what many people did back then and moved out west.
I just happened to make a pot of coffee (Folger's 1850) and was sippin' outta your cup when I found the new video. I still remember the old days in PA when we'd have fresh speckled trout for breakfast with bacon & eggs in a cast iron skillet on a wood stove left over from the 1850's.
Sitting here drinking my coffee and enjoying my bowl of oatmeal I guess times change but breakfast will always be the same .. thanks again Santee for another excellent video as always
As soon as you said you had your skillet too high, I rotated my phone to type out a comment suggesting Kent Rollins channel, but you played his clip before I even typed a single letter. Love that guy.
I still make hoe cakes. It's a great way to have cornbread with out heating up your oven. Good for breakfast with honey, bacon, and a cup of your favorite coffee.
Any video that starts with a clip from "The Cowboys" gets an automatic thumbs up... well... to be honest, Santee's videos always get a thumbs up... On bacon, up until the 1920s, it was considered more of a lunch and dinner meat used to garnish other dishes. We have Edward Bernays to thank for bacon being paired with eggs and a short stack. He was hired by the Beech-Nut Packing Co. to help increase sales of bacon and he came up with the idea of selling it as a healthy meat that got people going in the morning. Bernays is also responsible for America's love of bananas, thanks to a campaign he started for the company we know today as Chiquita after WWII. He also did work for the cigarette industry, which at the time would not be seen as a big deal. During WWII, he did work for the US government in the Public Information Service and also for the Army and Navy. Bernays is not all that good of a guy though. Contrary to what you might read about him on Wikipedia, it was Bernays that taught Joseph Goebbels about propaganda. While they are right that he didn't directly "work for the Nazi party," to say he had no influence or played no role is a lie. He was also a strong proponent of eugenics and abortion and worked on campaigns promoting both, as well.
@@ArizonaGhostriders Thank you, sir. Yeah, old Bernays is an interesting figure from the early to mid 20th Century that most people never heard of. He was one of the big figures in the early 20th Century progressive movement. Other figures in that movement include Margaret Sanger, Woodrow Wilson, and playwright George Bernhard Shaw. Wilson is another interesting guy, of the not so good variety. He was an extremely racist person. Prior to Wilson, the US military had been fully integrated. He segregated it because he didn't believe blacks were capable of fighting along side whites. He used some pretty colorful language to get his point across, which would probably get someone banned on UA-cam if they repeated it.
Great, and just right for breakfast time here in Germany... Just had my coffee and your video with it - now the coffee alone will not do - I got hungry and I had to laugh so much about the scene with the lumberjack knocking the tree down with his head and Bill watching in amazement 😅😅😅😅😅 Thank you for that wonderful, informative and funny start in my day!!! 😍
Man I truly learn so much through these Always been a huge fan of cowboys and western history Man I love eating bacon and scrambled eggs with cornbread and a coffee while watching your videos!
My grandma's traditional southern breakfast that she would make for the full table of 5? Buttermilk biscuits made with lard, bacon, country ham, white gravy made from the the fried bacon and ham, and some red eye grave made just for her using some coffee and pork drippings. Simple quick breakfast for a "I gotta get to work/school quick' breakfast was bacon, toast, and grits. The big breakfast was a weekend thing..we'd come up to her house (she lived right next door) for breakfast and then go back again for Saturday and Sunday dinner. I still make biscuits with lard when I make them by hand..if I'm too sick or lazy to do that I use a package of Bisquick buttermilk biscuit mix...though I have cut back on the bacon to try and lose some belly, I buy a pound of it then vacuum seal it and pop it in the fridge..I'll have bacon about maybe twice a month.
Yes sir .. good video .. for me when I'm on the trail .. tortillas and peanut butter .. and coffee gotta have my coffee .. jerky sometimes too.. and coffee .. oatmeal if I have time .. hardboiled egg also... and coffee ... packed cooked bacon before too .. did I say coffee gotta have coffee lol
I knew a guy in the Army who supposedly had "the fastest hand in the west..." I'm pretty sure they put him out on a "section eight." Hope that wasn't you... 😨
Great video Santee 👍👊🤠 You never disappoint 🍻🤠 Growing up on the Family Farm with my grandparents both being born in the early 1900 you had Hard work & Great cooking both grandparents grow up on farm's and my grandma she could cook, we raised beef cattle so we had alot of beef. Breakfast was always big 😋 My favorite was steak n eggs & hash browns 😋 Yes she spoled yes 👍 My grandpa always ate 6 eggs in the morning he lived to be 100 maybe the eggs helped 🤔 He still lived at home to. Maybe all my grandma's great cooking helped to 👍 🤠 LATER PARD 🤠 🦅🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🦅
I'm from the other side of the pond. We usually just have a couple of slices of bread or cereal for breakfast here. So imagine my surprise when the cheap Motel (who needs expensive hotels when you just need a clean bed and a bath) I and my friends were staying at in Memphis had an electric kettle with gravy and a tray of biscuits. I saw the other gests had that, but my friends chose the bagels instead. However I thought "when in Rome" and all that, and did as I saw the other guests did. And my goodness, that was a real treat to start the morning with. I think they just reheated the gravy though, because for every day they served it, it got thicker and thicker. But yeah, I loved it, and all of the other delicious food I tried while there. Was kind of sad the days they didn't have it, and I had to settle for the boring bagels with marmalade.
@@ArizonaGhostriders Actually never tried Grits since we only had breakfast at the motel, and there were only two options Well the days they reheated the gravy. Otherwise we were stuck with the bagels. Would like to try next time I visit the US though.
Guess what I had for breakfast this morning! Yep, bacon, hash browns, and eggs topped with a healthy dose of Tapatio! Delicioso. Gracias Santee for another great episode.
Elderly farm lady made fried bread as a breakfast food for family and farm hands, from something her grandmother taught her. Lard, yes lard, from day before used and bread dough with honey or sugar added, bacon chunks, chopped ham or chicken or whatever left from night before, occasionally with nuts and fresh fruit, raisens, dried figs, or whatever she had around added. In summer, when I'd go their with my friend, her great grandson, to do some work, she'd have platters of this concoction, that would vanish as soon as put out. Farm hands would grab a few extra to eat mid-morning. She made other stuff, but fried bread is what I fondly remember. Never really eaten anything like it since. She'd drop blobs of batter in very hot lard, making them about size off a fist. I don't even know what it's called other than fried bread as she referred to it. Tried making it once, with absolutely no success. Anyway, does this sound familiar to anyone? Does it have a name?
Waffle Casa 🤣 It was just like when your friend tells you a joke in elementary school in the lunch room, and you blow milk out of your nose... Except I was having a bourbon and water. It was great to see a cameo of Kent Rollins. Besides Arizona Ghost Riders, he's one of my favorites. 👍
I fix my breakfast generally around 4:30am eggs, ham or bacon,bicuts sometimes sausage gravy, or French toast or omelette with fried potatoes. In the field working by 6am, logging or milling lumber if not overtaken by heavy rains, I serve on our local flood board. Sometimes I restore old items.
Howdy again Santee & Co. ! Here in Dixie we love our grits and our gravy biscuits . One food peculiar to the Carolinas and some parts of Georgia and Virginia is livermush . There's a similar food from Pennsylvania called scrapple . Both consist of ground up hog parts bound with cornmeal and seasonings . Tastier than it sounds . I'm hungry now , all Ive had today is a couple of peanut butter and banana sandwiches . See Y'all down the trail !
Love the old cast iron skillets my mom still cooks everything with the one handed down to her from her grandmother there is a big difference in the way they cook love old stuff.
Hey Santee! I love pork sausage gravy and homemade biscuits and I am from the south...of New Jersey that is! Lol! I also love dried beef and milk gravy over fried potatoes for breakfast or for supper! Love the Cowboy Kent cameo! After he showed how to make "Cowboy Coffee" on his channel I drink my morning brew no other way! Thanks for another great video. Take care & God bless!
Santee, you've now made me hungry. My idea of a good country breakfast is country ham, red eyed gravy, fried eggs, grits and fried apples with drop biscuits. Grew up on that staple. Mostly eat on holidays now.
Santee love this... Watched it right before breakfast this morning lol.. good timing to add this one.. nice planning on you. My Son that is not interested in watching your videos watched it and was lhao and wants to watch more.. so you got a new fan from him. Post office should be finished I less than 2 weeks (building only but not the landscape). Can't wait to share.
Very practical if you are doing a lot of camping or shows. One pan cooking with easy to keep ingridients. Of course hard work outdoors always improves the flavour:-)
Breakfast is my favorite meal. I'm a firm believer that God put chickens on Earth specifically to provide humans with eggs, they will lay unfertilized eggs that will not hatch, why? To provide us with one of the most delicious meals around. Great video Santee, now I need to go up to the coop and gather some breakfast!
AZ Ghostriders sub count has been growing. soon you'll be at 100k! This is a great channell keep it up Santee! we call it hot-water cornbread in the cast iron skillet.
Hi I'm from England and new to your channel and absolutely love it. Keep up the excellent work and im binge watching all your old videos. Insightful and funny.
Good video. I loved the "old" movie footage. I also appreciated the Kent Rollins cameo! (I kinda thought he'd have a bigger part, or this might be one of them Fancy, crossover episodes. 😦) Always fun. Thanks Santee!
awwww..... when you said "mush" I teared up a little. My dad used to grind his own back in the late 60's, in an orange cast-iron grinder, and continued to eat it most mornings until he passed. I hadn't thought of that grinder in decades ! .... that being said, there is not enough brown sugar in the world for me to eat that cra* for my own breakfast ! ha ha ha.. I miss my dad, but I don't miss his evil grin every time we had breakfast together at his house, and he would say-- every single time he had bowl of mush in his hands-----, "just sprinkle a little brown sugar on it" ha ha ha. Thanks for a good memory this morning Cheese !
Love it. A very good and informative video. Throwing in Kent didn’t hurt either. The true reason is my fascination with living history. If you want a Cowboy breakfast you need to know what Cowboys had available and used! (Much like your bedroll video). In all honestly, I always search your page before I acquire additional Cowboy gear. Shape, spurs, leather, etc. Keep up the good work! Arty Redleg (did I mention the thrift shop video?)
Good video Santee. Homemade biscuits and gravy is one of the few things I can make without risking burning down the kitchen. I use an old military recipe for the gravy.
Where’s the Kona Coffee, my God no coffee ☕️in the morning 😜, that’s a crime against humanity 😁😝, (think you already did it, if so it was awhile ago, but one on coffee (and substitutes, “chickaree” for it) and the importance of it back then. Another Great start to the weekend, Thanks. 👍🏼❤️🇺🇸🤠
Nice video. Thanks for your effort. I have to wait breakfast until tomorrow. I might try the hoe cakes. So far I heard about them but never tried. I often have some bannock. Meanwhile it does not get too dark too often. Bannock and honey or bacon and eggs and some cowboy coffee is a decadent breakfast. Having it outdoors lifts it up a notch. I might regret that I did not try the hoe cakes sooner.
I see the mug made it again with AGR logo at the start, but does Bill know its over his head sits the AGR logo as timber falls? Really enjoyed this one mid day here in Michigan and I had to whip up bacon and eggs to satisfy breakfast cravings...Well done!!!
Santee, you got me to thinking. All this talk about food made me think about the types of kitchens they used back in those days. Do you have info on what they looked like and how they did all the cooking and prep in the Tavern and Bar Hotel settings when they are cooking for many? Thank's Santee
Howdy Santee. I'm enjoying the Saturday morning western immensely. @ 2:31 you highlight Quaker Oats in the newspaper. My eye was drawn to the next newspaper entry. Have you any information on that story?
@@ArizonaGhostriders a google search merely brings up football and electric workers. I reckon this is a subject I'll just have To ask God about when I see Him. I appreciate your perspective. I was thinking there had been some type of deadly disaster. Your assessment makes sense also. Maybe more since it wasn't front page. Jesus keep you and yours safe, healthy, and prosperous according to His grace. Take care. I'll see ya on down the trail. Unless i go backcountry. :D
Hi Santee love your pinned comments there funny as, I love how you call them biscuits over here a biscuit is a Cookie period, I assumed porridge would of been popular as oats are cheap id think, can't beat bacon and eggs 🙂 even better I recommend Bacon with Pancakes Banana and maple syrup all in one roll it up and enjoy the tastiness 😁💙 have an amazing week mate
To us 90-140 years seems like a long time, but if you think about it the old west wasn’t actually that long ago. It’s amazing to see how far we have came in terms of technology and ways of life. Loved the video santee. Any idea what a lunch and dinner may look like in the old west? And how often was dairy consumed? Was milk added to coffee for example?
My favorite fact on food in the old days is that there was usually 4-5 meals served throughout the day: breakfast, lunch, dinner, 2nd lunch, supper (at least according to some old family diaries). It also points to why some people say dinner rather than lunch because lunch used to be a snack,
You can use whatever bacon you want. I have a few friends that don't eat pork so when I make quiche or something that requires bacon I use the turkey bacon.
The thumbs-down are breakfast haters. Sad, really.
I don't hate breakfast, but don't like to get up early either 😃
I heard that if you don't like breakfast, you might be communist.
Depends if it fried cake with liquid sugar than no
That's unamerican. The way I was taught, if you're only gonna have 1 meal on a given day, make that meal breakfast.
@@chrisjaybecker breakfast or fried cake with liquid sugar

@@RideAlongside after Santee, of course.
Me, too.
I don't know how the gravy is out west but in the south we like it so thick that if you have any left over you can use it for caulking.
HAAH! Well, that clip I used with it coming towards the camera is some peppery thick gravy alright.
In Northern England, especially associated with Yorkshire, a similar batter mix called Yorkshire Pudding is served with thick onion gravy as a starter. The idea is a cheap filler so you eat less of the expensive bits afterwards. Truly delicious though.
That reminds me of some biscuits Benny Hill once sung about "It melted like butter in my mouth but settled in my stomach like cement".

It was great to see a cameo of Kent Rollins. Besides Arizona Ghost Riders, he's one of my favorites. 👍
Thank you!
I fix my breakfast generally around 4:30am eggs, ham or bacon,bicuts sometimes sausage gravy, or French toast or omelette with fried potatoes. In the field working by 6am, logging or milling lumber if not overtaken by heavy rains, I serve on our local flood board. Sometimes I restore old items.
Very cool!
Howdy again Santee & Co. ! Here in Dixie we love our grits and our gravy biscuits . One food peculiar to the Carolinas and some parts of Georgia and Virginia is livermush . There's a similar food from Pennsylvania called scrapple . Both consist of ground up hog parts bound with cornmeal and seasonings . Tastier than it sounds . I'm hungry now , all Ive had today is a couple of peanut butter and banana sandwiches . See Y'all down the trail !
Enjoy yer vittles, Victor!
Now I craving some bacon and eggs
Can you smell it?
Love the old cast iron skillets my mom still cooks everything with the one handed down to her from her grandmother there is a big difference in the way they cook love old stuff.
So good to cook in.
@@ArizonaGhostriders yes sir very true. Thank you for all you do.
Hey Santee! I love pork sausage gravy and homemade biscuits and I am from the south...of New Jersey that is! Lol! I also love dried beef and milk gravy over fried potatoes for breakfast or for supper! Love the Cowboy Kent cameo! After he showed how to make "Cowboy Coffee" on his channel I drink my morning brew no other way! Thanks for another great video. Take care & God bless!
That is awesome! Kent and Shannon are all kinds of special.
Great job Santee! Always the right amount of humor along with a good side of history, breakfast for the brain.... Outflippinstanding!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Santee, you've now made me hungry. My idea of a good country breakfast is country ham, red eyed gravy, fried eggs, grits and fried apples with drop biscuits. Grew up on that staple. Mostly eat on holidays now.
So good!
Santee love this... Watched it right before breakfast this morning lol.. good timing to add this one.. nice planning on you. My Son that is not interested in watching your videos watched it and was lhao and wants to watch more.. so you got a new fan from him.
Post office should be finished I less than 2 weeks (building only but not the landscape). Can't wait to share.
Thanks, Michael. Glad I converted him. Have him watch the 2000 Mile Trek one with the gunfight in it.
Love the lumberjack at 3:34 !
LOL!
Now this is makin me curious on tryin out or makin these old western breakfast treats and meals.
Great video!
Another added for research!
Very practical if you are doing a lot of camping or shows. One pan cooking with easy to keep ingridients. Of course hard work outdoors always improves the flavour:-)
Awesome! Thank you!
Good stuff! Get Kent back on here too please!! He's awesome!
Will do
Breakfast is my favorite meal. I'm a firm believer that God put chickens on Earth specifically to provide humans with eggs, they will lay unfertilized eggs that will not hatch, why? To provide us with one of the most delicious meals around. Great video Santee, now I need to go up to the coop and gather some breakfast!
Thanks for sharing! Enjoy your huevos, amigo!
The smell of Bacon and eggs cooked outdoors. Enough to turn a rabbit into a carnivore.
@@51WCDodge It's been my experience that rabbits are omnivorous. Had a pet cottontail once caught him eating on bbq'd racoon.
@@patrickgriffitt6551 There is an English film The Curse of The Wererabbit. Did he cast for it? :-)
@@51WCDodge Also an American film "Night of the Lepus". No he got big and I set him free. He was a young orphan when I found him.
Great job Santee.
Oh how I do love me some biscuits and gravy yeah buddy
Me too!
AZ Ghostriders sub count has been growing. soon you'll be at 100k! This is a great channell keep it up Santee! we call it hot-water cornbread in the cast iron skillet.
Yeeehaw!
Just found this channel a few days ago. And its very educational.
Thank you!
👍
Hi I'm from England and new to your channel and absolutely love it. Keep up the excellent work and im binge watching all your old videos. Insightful and funny.
Awesome! Thank you!
Good video. I loved the "old" movie footage. I also appreciated the Kent Rollins cameo! (I kinda thought he'd have a bigger part, or this might be one of them Fancy, crossover episodes. 😦) Always fun. Thanks Santee!
Glad you enjoyed it. You know, I might see if he's up for another one. Maybe frontier lunch...hmmm.
Johnny cakes may be a corruption of the term journey cakes, according to the Townsends' channel.
So I understand.
Could smell the coffee brewing while watching this one. Went back and re-watched your coffee video.....Pass some more SOS please !
yes! SOS
awwww..... when you said "mush" I teared up a little. My dad used to grind his own back in the late 60's, in an orange cast-iron grinder, and continued to eat it most mornings until he passed. I hadn't thought of that grinder in decades ! .... that being said, there is not enough brown sugar in the world for me to eat that cra* for my own breakfast ! ha ha ha.. I miss my dad, but I don't miss his evil grin every time we had breakfast together at his house, and he would say-- every single time he had bowl of mush in his hands-----, "just sprinkle a little brown sugar on it" ha ha ha. Thanks for a good memory this morning Cheese !
You're welcome. Yeah....the best way to eat it is with heavy cream and sugar, thus defeating the purpose.
wow some of these food choices for breakfast actually look really tasty
Yes they are.
up north here the traditional breakfast was bacon, onions, ground mule deer and sour cream served over potatoes. i still eat it almost every morning
Sounds great!
Not quite the same as in Belgium! 😃😉 and thanks again Santee for the education 😃👍
My pleasure!
As always great job.
I appreciate that
My favorite subject! Food!
Good choice!
Love it. A very good and informative video. Throwing in Kent didn’t hurt either. The true reason is my fascination with living history. If you want a Cowboy breakfast you need to know what Cowboys had available and used! (Much like your bedroll video).
In all honestly, I always search your page before I acquire additional Cowboy gear. Shape, spurs, leather, etc. Keep up the good work!
Arty Redleg (did I mention the thrift shop video?)
Shaps … spell check got me.
Glad you enjoyed it
Good video Santee. Homemade biscuits and gravy is one of the few things I can make without risking burning down the kitchen. I use an old military recipe for the gravy.
Grind the bones of the enemy??
@@ArizonaGhostriders er......no. However that might make it taste better.
@@Squib1911 LOL!
It you for these wonderful videos
You're welcome!
Why this Channel don’t hit millions of Subscribers?
Santee sure should.
Thanks.
I'd be happy with 100k
Where’s the Kona Coffee, my God no coffee ☕️in the morning 😜, that’s a crime against humanity 😁😝, (think you already did it, if so it was awhile ago, but one on coffee (and substitutes, “chickaree” for it) and the importance of it back then. Another Great start to the weekend, Thanks. 👍🏼❤️🇺🇸🤠
I did one on coffee, yup. That was the first one with Jerry.
Nice video. Thanks for your effort. I have to wait breakfast until tomorrow. I might try the hoe cakes. So far I heard about them but never tried. I often have some bannock. Meanwhile it does not get too dark too often. Bannock and honey or bacon and eggs and some cowboy coffee is a decadent breakfast. Having it outdoors lifts it up a notch. I might regret that I did not try the hoe cakes sooner.
Outdoors does make a flavor difference.
I see the mug made it again with AGR logo at the start, but does Bill know its over his head sits the AGR logo as timber falls? Really enjoyed this one mid day here in Michigan and I had to whip up bacon and eggs to satisfy breakfast cravings...Well done!!!
Thank you. Breakfast can be served all day. Well, unless you're Michael Douglas.
Santee, you got me to thinking. All this talk about food made me think about the types of kitchens they used back in those days. Do you have info on what they looked like and how they did all the cooking and prep in the Tavern and Bar Hotel settings when they are cooking for many? Thank's Santee
I'll have to look into it. Seems I came across the info on my restaurants episode, but can't remember the details.
Between you and JEDi… 😂🤣
Thanks for making the Old West fun for the grandkids.
You bet
Still loving your short vids dude!!!
Thank you!
As my stomach is rumbling! Thanks 👍.
Any time!
Living here in Arizona, I found out about from Kent Rollins hard tack video.
Thanks for visiting, Jim! Welcome to the channel.
Great job sir
Thank you!
Howdy Santee.
I'm enjoying the Saturday morning western immensely.
@ 2:31 you highlight Quaker Oats in the newspaper.
My eye was drawn to the next newspaper entry. Have you any information on that story?
Hmmm, it seems a religious thing "Suffering Mortals were saved" I guess one could look up Linemans on 23rd washington and see what it was.
@@ArizonaGhostriders a google search merely brings up football and electric workers.
I reckon this is a subject I'll just have To ask God about when I see Him.
I appreciate your perspective. I was thinking there had been some type of deadly disaster. Your assessment makes sense also. Maybe more since it wasn't front page.
Jesus keep you and yours safe, healthy, and prosperous according to His grace.
Take care. I'll see ya on down the trail. Unless i go backcountry. :D
Hi Santee love your pinned comments there funny as, I love how you call them biscuits over here a biscuit is a Cookie period, I assumed porridge would of been popular as oats are cheap id think, can't beat bacon and eggs 🙂 even better I recommend Bacon with Pancakes Banana and maple syrup all in one roll it up and enjoy the tastiness 😁💙 have an amazing week mate
Oh that is a good combo. I'll have to try that. Yes, biscuits there are cookies in the British Empire!
Had a cactus omelet in Mexico (Ensenada) it was dang good too. Maybe old time cowboys ate that.
No doubt. Nopales was a thing back then, too.
Nothing like a good old well greased home style breakfast ^^ bacon for the win
You got that right!
Now I feel like trying some recipes. Hope there are some out there that account for modern cooking techniques.
Oh there are plenty.
Very entertaining episode Santee I enjoyed 👍👍
Thank you!
I’m not sure if they still have them in the US but here in the UK Quaker Oats are still readily available.
Oh yeah. It's a huge business.
To us 90-140 years seems like a long time, but if you think about it the old west wasn’t actually that long ago. It’s amazing to see how far we have came in terms of technology and ways of life.
Loved the video santee. Any idea what a lunch and dinner may look like in the old west?
And how often was dairy consumed? Was milk added to coffee for example?
Thank you, and we'll cover those meals. Supper too!
@@ArizonaGhostriders grubs up!
My favorite fact on food in the old days is that there was usually 4-5 meals served throughout the day: breakfast, lunch, dinner, 2nd lunch, supper (at least according to some old family diaries). It also points to why some people say dinner rather than lunch because lunch used to be a snack,
"Supper" was another meal.
Great video santee! Can you also do a video on slang in the old West?
Did one. "Words and Wisdom"
this is on as I'm teaching our granddaughter how to make corned beef hash.... from actual corned beef....
NICE!
Mmmmm biscuits and gravy
Yeeesssssss.
Another good episode Santee.
Much appreciated.
Ah, The Cowboys. The first western I will show my nephews once they are old enough to appreciate it.
Good plan!
I have a suggestion for a video, how about dressing the part of the old west or frontier doctors
yes!!
Amazing
Thank you! Cheers!
Thanks
Let's get some grub boys 😋 my belly is empty! But not for long Santee 😊 my Saturday is complete now!
I've been hungry all week. That's the problem with making a food video, dagnabit.
I know that in Arizona (since it's a hot state) some people take a pan and cook their eggs outside on the road/sidewalk
Pretty sure that's a joke. I've lived out here 20 years and nobody who's tried it has been successsful.
@@ArizonaGhostriders my father has lived in Arizona, and has said that some (not all I suppose) do it
Dante love your videos
Thank you!
My saddlebags would contain just coffee and bacon.
Two pieces of bacon between more bacon, wrapped in bacon, with coffee of course.
Sounds tasty
I should have had breakfast before I watched this. Great review
Glad you enjoyed it
"What's in the bag? I CAN'T READ!" Great commercial hahaha
LOL
I just learned how to make biscuits and gravy a couple days ago. My new favorite breakfast is biscuits and gravy and turkey bacon (I know, I know)
It's ok. Turkey bacon is not heresy. It's a suitable substitute.
You can use whatever bacon you want. I have a few friends that don't eat pork so when I make quiche or something that requires bacon I use the turkey bacon.
Looks cloudy right there... Wonder if they got a decent monsoon season this year?
That's all California fire smoke. Our Monsoon was the worst in a long time. We had over a month of extreme temps and very little rain. Sigh...
