I promise that none of my personal chickens were harmed in the making of this program. Ride your carriage over to our 2nd channel Frontier Patriot to see us eating all of this. It was amazing!! ua-cam.com/video/OCmHpTSG6mY/v-deo.html
The whole time you were preparing the beef pattys I kept thinking, “Please make gravy from the renderings!!” And then you did and my little Mississippi, Southern heart was so happy!! 🥰
This was a real eye opener for me. I had no idea that people had access to many of these ingredients 200 years ago. My Grandmother was born in 1920 in rural Kentucky and she taught me a lot about how they lived and they did not have many of these things. She said that things such as oranges and even bologna were considered a real treat to get. It looks like things were that way because they were money poor and not because those ingredients weren't around.
The area people they lived in determined their food. Some areas just didnt grow certain foods. One of my grandmothers was close to the sea, so fish was plenty but beef was a treat for her.
My dad and two other siblings were very poor in Cincinnati. Raised by a single mother in the 1920’s. They ate lots of bologna and some type of butter on bread.
I just came to the realization that my mother cooked many recipes just like this, but in a very modern kitchen. She almost never used measuring cups. It was all by eye. I always love seeing things that turn out to be much older recipes than I was aware of and it's always a treat to sometimes know exactly what they'll taste like. Historical cooking is such a treasure trove of surprising economic/sociopolitical exploration of the time. You do wonderful living history work providing snapshots of the past for history dorks, like me😁
When I see Justine I stop everything and watch. She is so patient when she cooks. You really put love into your meals. Ron is very lucky 🍀 to be with you and eat meals with you. Thankful for your endearing love of all things frontier.
You're so peaceful when you cook! You make me feel like I could just go to my kitchen and do this. It would be such a different scene, everything on fire... 😄.
I love your videos, I have been dealing with the loss if my mom and having health problems and cannot be in the sunlight or under any type of lights and it's depressing but your videos calm me and help me through my day! 💖💖💖💖💖
I always find it fascinating watching you prepare meals from that era. You have such a wonderful presence about you and your videos are calming. Much love to you ♥️
I only recently discovered your channel and am a huge fan . Now I'm ending most of my days watching you cook 19th century recipes while sipping a little bourbon and listening to the asmr quality of your audio. Thanks so much for keeping the authenticity of how these dishes were prepared. I have fallen in love with your fire place and the versatility you've shown in being able to prepare so many different foods with it. This is the most peaceful part of my day. I'm grateful.
I live in the midwest and my grandmother, mother and now I still make those hamburger patties with mushroom gravy...but with mashed potatoes....so good!
Michael and I really enjoyed the chat tonight!! Y'all are very wonderful friends!! I can't thank you enough for making my birthday so special! Thank you for your thoughtful gifts! My flowers made the trip back and still look and smell so good! I will never forget this birthday!! We are so excited to learn more when we come back for Pioneer Days! From the bottom of my heart, I can't thank you enough ❤️
It's very nice to see you keeping the old tradition way of cooking alive, otherwise these practices would sadly die out. We hope you enjoyed your meal and thanks for sharing and greetings from England Beth and Simon ❤️ 👍. New sub here 👍.
That smile when you snuck a piece of chicken is the cutest! And reminds me of myself and the little things in life 🥰 I love your videos and your channel
Love your cooking Justine. Thank you so much for the lovely videos. Relaxing. I love the sounds of your bowls, spoons , iron pots, wood, fire crackling etc. Lots of work. Looks delicous and healthy. God bless you. 💗➕💗
My grandmother was born in 1885 my mother was born 1920 I am 59 and we had meat cakes all the time for supper but I didn't know how far back this recipe went. Makes amazing gravy. We are Acadian from East coast of Canada
@@ahoycaptain5065 Her comment had been edited AFTER I posted my reply. Her original comment said, “My grandmother was born in 1800 my mother was born 1920…” It DID NOT say “1885”.
I love the peace of this lifestyle. As much as I love the luxuries of modern day technology, I feel like this inspires me to live more simple and more in tune with nature. I love historical re-enactments. I actually live relatively close (about an hour or so) from Plymouth Plantation in Massachusetts. Those were the best field trips we would take as students; I wish I lived close enough to work there as an actor, how fun would that be?! 🥰
Thank you and Ron and the rest of the group for these UA-cams. I love history, any kind, and this makes me appreciate it even more. I have ancestry from the Mayflower and Jamestown and more. To be a little fly on the wall of many of my ancestors to see how they lived. Blessings to you and Ron. ❤️
I get warm and cozy feelings from these videos. Listening to the fire crackling and the sounds of the cooking just make me feel at home. Thank you!! Food looks amazing!!
I can only imagine how long it took before the beet stains weren't on your hands. Everything looked so good. I am looking forward to seeing what your garden will look like.
Another interesting video. Enjoyed it. I do not want to be taken as critical as I certainly do not intend this comment as such. I would have thought people on the frontier would have cooked a lot more basic food on a daily basis. I am almost 69 and in my lifetime country folks ate lots of beans, pork and chickens sometimes and beef occasionally. Cornbread was almost a daily staple or biscuits at times. Mostly just basic foods that stored well long term or were inexpensive and could be bought in quantity. Wild game whenever it could be obtained. When I was young people still ran hogs in the woods and lot's of country people had smokehouses and had annual hog killings. I expect people in the early 1800's had to be very similar. Just an observation based on memories of my past.
Justine used to work as a maid in a big home as you can see from the older videos. As such she is quite partial to cooking and is comfortable doing so. It's a hobby as there are people today who enjoy cooking too and make elaborate meals at home while others are ok with just a pizza.
They seem to live just outside of town which is on a river (so lots of trading). Ron isn't a farmer in the "middle of nowhere." His main occupation is woodcutter, so they buy most food. I am surprised Justine and Ron don't keep at least a kitchen garden, though. Justine loves her spices, and they are pretty easy to grow and dry.
Agreed. First thing came to mind was must eliminate anchovy, only because I am not partial to any type of seafood whatsoever. Oh, and I also assumed that anchovy and chicken wouldn't pair well.
Of course the cook has to sneak a bite now and then. You have to get something for your labor! That whole meal looks delicious! That was enough food to last me a week! Great job!
My mom would take ground beef and form patties around raw chopped onions. Then she would wrap the patty in a slice of bacon and secure with a toothpick and then fry them.
Its so nice to see you making actually recipes. In the movies it looked like the only food people ate was stew and fried chicken. Or some kind of dried beans. Your recipes are delightful..
Although, to be fair, it's not like there were a lot of other distractions back then. No phones, TV, radio, internet, commuter jobs, kid extracurricular activities, etc. Probably not even a lot of books. So they devoted their time to very basic things like food preparation.
That looked delicious. And I'm sure it tasted as good as it looks. A seasoned cast iron skillet can't be beat. I watch Townsends as well, and I need to get some mushroom ketchup and try some of these recipes. Thank you for sharing,
My mother, rest her soul, was Pennsylvania Dutch and born in 1927. She made many beet dishes, which I fondly remember, many using the beet greens, too. One was much like this one with onions, greens, and vinegar. Another, pickled beets, using cloves, a bit of sugar, and apple cider vinegar, was my absolute favorite. Then, when the beets were gone, we used the pickled beet juice to pickle hard boiled eggs! We had many hens and the surplus of eggs were used many ways, and especially in ways to preserve over winter. Pink eggs, yes, delicious, yes, great childhood memories, yes! It is a shame that many people today don't like beets or have never eaten them. Loved the video, amazing that this one was so familiar and resembled many meals our family had when I was a child.
Find this peaceful and calming. Thank you. My family on my dad's side came over on the Mayflower. Makes me think of my ancestors living in American then.
The beets and onions look amazing. One of my favorite treats is to cook beets (boiled) then peel them, slice them and eat them as-is. Golden beets are my favorite, but they're not as easy to find.
Hi, Justine! How would the raw beef and other uncured meats have been stored back then, or would the meat have been purchased and used the same day? I really enjoy your videos :)
@@lyssalouise2705 That's right! :-) In the 1800s the main way to preserve meat was to have it smoked, dried as "jerky," or salted. Preserved meats included bacon, salt pork, smoked ham, dried or corned beef, and smoked, salted or dried fish. Vegetables could be kept in a root cellar or pickled in a solution of brine and vinegar.
You would have kept it on ice (some people even had ice houses. Ice was shipped up from norther, colder areas), dried it, used it up within 2 days, salted it or put it in a crock and sealed it with a fat cap made of butter or lard then tied a hog's bladder over the jar.
My grandmother lived in rural area before WWI. They had cellars in the ground around 10’ deep. They kept meat there , it was salted and covered with clothe sprinkled with vinegar to keep the flies away. It could stay fresh 2-3 days. Under ground temperature was much lower.
Wow, all of this looks delicious! 😍 Love watching you cook, the sound of the fire is always so relaxing. Also love how you show the actual receipts at the end, they are so interesting to read! ❤️
This video sounds and smells amazing! It felt like I was about to be served dinner. Thank you for sharing this beautiful video. God bless you and your family.
I Love the cooking episodes and the new (old..lol) ideas for meals that I can try out on my own! No wonder Ron is hungry all the time! Your meals look delicious! 🌞
This looks delightful. Please also show us how to maintain that fireplace. Because this is fascinating, the way a fireplace is used for cooking. Old skills that were never passed down 😂 but hey it is useful knowledge. You never know.
Justine, you always look so pleased and at peace while working. Why, you make hearth cooking look easy! I would love to try making the ground beef dish with that gravy. Lotsa love to you and Ron, and happy spring!
Boa tarde! Eu sou nova nesse canal mas já estou amando cada detalhe da casa , da maneira que essa jovem prepara as comidinhas, e a simplicidade da decoração é um charme só, e a paciência dessa jovem de conzinhar é muito lindo, com a ajuda do esposo é muito bom, só sinto uma coisa que como só falo a língua portuguesa porque eu sou do Brasil ai fica difícil entender o inglês, mas gosto de cada detalhe dessa casa .
Oh those beef cakes, my grandmother used to do, but she uses along with the meat, onions, bell peppers, a cube of beef broth and salt. She calls it "hamburguinhos"(Little Hamburgers). I would never imagine that it was recipe with almost 200 yrs old! Nothing is new under the sun...
I don't know why but I never really thought of early American cooking as being particularly sophisticated. I've been pleasantly surprised to see just how sophisticated the recipes I've seen thus far are/were.
A lot of the food they make and eat in this series is a lot more sophisticated than the gross stuff my mother made in the 60s, 70s, and 80s, before many Americans turned back to using fresh, seasonal ingredients instead of eating things like canned-soup casseroles and boxed processed food, lol.
These Beef Patti are like Kebabs Popular in Middle East ,India ,Pakistan,Iran Turkey And Rice with butter is Like Ghee(Clarified Butter) Rice or pulao In India And Pakistan OMG!!!! So Similar even with European and Asian Countries
Es un encanto ver a esta hermosa mujer como cocina , se ve tan sencilla e inteligente para las labores del hogar , es muy hábil ... Contemplando el fuego me imagino y es así las comidas quedan muy ricas al prepararlas naturalmente , yo también vivo así en el campo rodeada de la naturaleza desde mí infancia es una vida sencilla , tranquila y muy bonita ....gracias por mostrar este video ,me encantó lo conservaré 🌾🐑🔥🍞📖☕🏠💐💐
I literally addicted to this Channel and this way of living. My wife and I are raising our kids to homesteading and living off the land. We harvest and process our own meat and grown our own crops. We to fully live out of our freezer and pantry and watching this helps inspire us to live by our roots
I accidentally found your youtube channel and i'm in love with it. i've watched all the videos within 2 days 😄💖 this reminds me of little house book series ( Laura Ingalls Wilder) which is my favourite. Hope you guys have children soon 😊 so that it would be so much interested to watch. I love to watch drama videos. Thanks you guys and Good luck ❤❤❤
Looks good. You can also make your salad dressing first and then pour it over your salad. Wisk together 1/4 cup of apple cider vinegar, 1 tablespoon of mustard ( dijon or yellow), chopped garlic, 1/3 cup of olive oil with salt and pepper to taste. This make a great salad dressing !
You're doing a great thing, sharing this with us! Thank you so much. I have a question for you - how do you handle preparing so many dishes and keeping them warm/pleasant until they're all done? Without modern ovens and burners, it seems tricky!
Funny, yesterday I got one of the hens out of freezer camp. Half got fried, half will get baked, the neck, back and wing tips went back to the freezer to await parts of one or two more hens to make stock and chicken and dumplings.
Speak 4 yourself- haha I'm 54, and since being diagnosed with celiac disease 3 years ago, I cook everything from scratch, no box meals in this house, including all gravies!!😂😂😂

I didn't know you had another channel😍
I’ve watched a couple videos now and they are amazing, but I need to know about your chefs knife. Please give me details.
What was used for refrigeration during the 1800s?
the fire must of been going alot back then.alot of wood must of been use.
Hence the saying “keep the home fires burning!”
Thank you for not adding music!! The sounds of you cooking are delightful! Love both of your channels and wished I lived near by!
gd you s doze is
It's very relaxing lol
Yes! I put it on when I'm cooking and I feel like I'm cooking with her
Music is a distraction from this art of cooking. And it is an art

Yup sure love good gravy
My Asian heart is not happy
My mother made chicken gravy from the renderings and haven't had gravy like that since.
Oh yes gravy should be made whenever possible. Lol. I love it.

It all comes down to what you can afford. And oranges have been grown in the U.S. since the 1500s.
I grew up in a seaside town in the 1980's and even then we had very little beef as it was too expensive but plenty of seafood.
@@lindaSee89 usually the butter was made out of bone lard
I really enjoy your videos. It’s nice to just hear cooking, and no talking / no music. Peaceful. Thanks!
Your videos always make me happy. This one was no exception!
What a feast! Looks so delicious!
You know, when I get hungry, I'll watch one of your videos while I make food and eat. It makes me feel less alone.

Burn the house down

Eu sou nova nesse canal mas já estou amando cada detalhe da casa , da maneira que essa jovem prepara as comidinhas, e a simplicidade da decoração é um charme só, e a paciência dessa jovem de conzinhar é muito lindo, com a ajuda do esposo é muito bom, só sinto uma coisa que como só falo a língua portuguesa porque eu sou do Brasil ai fica difícil entender o inglês, mas gosto de cada detalhe dessa casa .
Oh those beef cakes, my grandmother used to do, but she uses along with the meat, onions, bell peppers, a cube of beef broth and salt. She calls it "hamburguinhos"(Little Hamburgers). I would never imagine that it was recipe with almost 200 yrs old! Nothing is new under the sun...
I don't know why but I never really thought of early American cooking as being particularly sophisticated. I've been pleasantly surprised to see just how sophisticated the recipes I've seen thus far are/were.
A lot of the food they make and eat in this series is a lot more sophisticated than the gross stuff my mother made in the 60s, 70s, and 80s, before many Americans turned back to using fresh, seasonal ingredients instead of eating things like canned-soup casseroles and boxed processed food, lol.
@@zamaz99 some of us still enjoy hamburger helper and casseroles LOL. Still love jello molds, too!
This couple ate very well. Everything always looks delicious!
That all looks so delicious!! I love watching your videos.
These Beef Patti are like Kebabs Popular in Middle East ,India ,Pakistan,Iran Turkey
And Rice with butter is Like Ghee(Clarified Butter) Rice or pulao In India And Pakistan
OMG!!!! So Similar even with European and Asian Countries
Everything looks so good. I haven't had beets in a while and now I will have to make some. I love them pickled!
I never cared for beets by themselves, but reading your post reminded me of my grandma's pickled eggs in beet juice, and now I really want those!
Yes! Pickled eggs with beet juice are the best.🙂
That looks delicious Justine. Ron can cut wood all day long on that kind of meal!
Es un encanto ver a esta hermosa mujer como cocina , se ve tan sencilla e inteligente para las labores del hogar , es muy hábil ...

It looks delicious. Thank you, Justine.
I literally addicted to this Channel and this way of living. My wife and I are raising our kids to homesteading and living off the land. We harvest and process our own meat and grown our own crops. We to fully live out of our freezer and pantry and watching this helps inspire us to live by our roots
I like the way she cooks. Calmly. No hurry.
All looks yummy, nice job, Justine!
I am more intrigued to watch the vid everytime I saw the caption with year. Happy to discover you channel.
I accidentally found your youtube channel and i'm in love with it. i've watched all the videos within 2 days 😄💖 this reminds me of little house book series ( Laura Ingalls Wilder) which is my favourite. Hope you guys have children soon 😊 so that it would be so much interested to watch. I love to watch drama videos. Thanks you guys and Good luck ❤❤❤
Looks good. You can also make your salad dressing first and then pour it over your salad. Wisk together 1/4 cup of apple cider vinegar, 1 tablespoon of mustard ( dijon or yellow), chopped garlic, 1/3 cup of olive oil with salt and pepper to taste. This make a great salad dressing !
You're doing a great thing, sharing this with us! Thank you so much. I have a question for you - how do you handle preparing so many dishes and keeping them warm/pleasant until they're all done? Without modern ovens and burners, it seems tricky!
You can put them on a brazier or by the fire to stay warm or put the lid from a cast iron pot over them to trap in some heat.
✨ What A Feast ~ It Looks Wonderful ✨
Can you just cook for me every day 😩 Ron is so lucky lol love you guys! 💕
Funny, yesterday I got one of the hens out of freezer camp. Half got fried, half will get baked, the neck, back and wing tips went back to the freezer to await parts of one or two more hens to make stock and chicken and dumplings.
By the way Justine, I love that blue and white crock, did you get that from Kandye's shop? If so I will need to order one.
I love how they knew to soak the rice! Properly prepared food is something that has been lost to us now
The old rule of thumb used to be, if it's hard before cooking, soak it!
Speak 4 yourself- haha I'm 54, and since being diagnosed with celiac disease 3 years ago, I cook everything from scratch, no box meals in this house, including all gravies!!😂😂😂
