Raised in a German family we ate a great deal of white cabbage but mainly red cabbage. Red cabbage cooked with an apple, sugar, vinegar and salt and pepper. It was sweet. We usually ate it with a roast, beef or pork, gravy and mashed potatoes. I usually fix my white cabbage as you did. Thanks Tipper for sharing this wonderful meal!
When I was trying to get my credit cards paid off to build up my credit rating so I could get a mortgage, I'd have this or a very similar meal about 4-5 times a week, usually with stewed potatoes and turnips on the side. Took me a couple years but I got it done! Thank the good Lord for beans, potatoes and good cheap produce!
I like how Matt often leans towards the non-electric, mechanical way of doing things. When you said he likes this old pressure pot, I just nodded a little bit 😄. Wishing you and your family health & wellness in 2023. Thank you sharing!
@@CelebratingAppalachia When I married I got a pressur pot. My sweet mother in law was scared of it !! She said it might blow up !! She cooked pinto beans every day !! Eight kids ! Then as they married she always had even more at the dinner table !! I miss her sooo much !!
Love fried cabbage!! My husband was Ukrainian and he loved a dish called Haluski. It's 1 head of chopped/fried cabbage, 1 pound of fried bacon cut into bite sized pieces and 1 bag of boiled/drained egg noodles. Once everything is cooked add altogether with salt and pepper. It's delicious!
My grandmother made fried cabbage that way. I've never made it because I wasn't sure exactly how she made it. I remember her always frying fat back and serving it with the fried cabbage. I'm sure this is how she did it after watching this video. Now I will be making it this way. Thank you for bringing back a great memory of my grandmother's cooking to me. She was a great cook and woman. She contacted polio at the age of 3 and was in a wheelchair the rest of her life. But she didn't let that stop her from doing anything. And her kitchen was the heart of her home. She would cook and feed so many people. Family, friends and church families. Her home was full of love and she was loved by so many.
My daddy is from Sylva, NC. He got me hooked on fried cabbage. Over the years I've put different things in it. I use onion & garlic powder with Tony's Cajun seasoning. It's so good!
Tipper, Thank you for the trip down Memory lane. My Mom made it just like you! This was always served with pinto beans made just like your husbands. Corn bread as well. " The cornbread was NEVER sweet. Your videos are like I was standing next to my Mom talking and helping. I miss that so much. My Mom and Dad passed away 30 years ago. Your videos mean so much. God Bless you and yours.
Born and raised in western nc...love fried cabbage! Bacon grease, onion, salt, pepper and a pinch of sugar. Hard to beat with soup beans and cornbread!💙
Cabbage is my favorite veggie and many people look at me like I’m nuts when I say that. Its such an under appreciated vegetable. Even just watching this made me feel all happy and content 😂❤🥬🥬🥬
It’s remarkable how universal fried cabbage is. My very Italian family does virtually the same thing, but starting with pepperoni instead of fatback. We do add onions and garlic, too, and a bit of a herb like thyme.
I love your channel so much, I also love that you film with your household noises going on around you - the occasional murmur of voices or the television - its so soothing as it reminds me of childhood, watching my Mum cook and learning by that whilst the rest of my family wandered in and out. I wish I could show your videos to my Mum but she passed away thirteen years ago. She would been a fan of your recipes and heartily approve of your way of life. Thank you for giving me that memory.
This reminds me of my Slovak grandmother making haluski, fried cabbage with bacon and egg noodles, for my sister and I growing up. It's a recipe that was passed down from her mother who was an immigrant from Slovakia at the turn of the 20th century. It's a recipe I still love to this day.
We ate at a Danish couple's home once, back in the 1970s. The elderly woman made a wonderful creamed cabbage. Wish I'd have watched her make it. 50 years later and I still remember it
Delicious! I love cabbage. A tradition in our family is to fry up left over vegies from the previous day. My favourite is cabbage, potato's, and any other vegie that is left over with some butter or oil in the cast iron frying pan. We call it 'bubble and squeak' (a British term) because it does bubble and squeak as it's frying. I really enjoy watching you share your preparations for meals with us. I get a lot of great idea's from it. Enjoy your evening. Blessings x
My Appalachian papaw would tell Tipper to add a little pineapple to that supper and they could "set around later and make Hi-wah-yun music together". Another tried and true, Tipper. Keep 'em coming sister.
Definitely how I was raised. I cook brown beans with chicken broth, add some ham, and fry cornbread for mostly me and my neighbor lady, Donna . She's 84 and doesn't get out often. A fine meal adding the cabbage but mom usually had fried potatoes and I did the years I raised three children. Just down home good supper there. ❤️
It's cold and raining here in Missouri so I fixed a pot of beans and made cornbread. So good. Leftovers tomorrow will be wonderful with fried potatoes and onions. I had cooked cabbage yesterday for dinner!
Both of my parents were raised in south Georgia during the Depression, and this is how we ate while I was growing up, and I love it all. I call it "Depression food," when my Yankee friends in NC ask about things like collar greens, fried pork chops, cornbread, etc. Love your videos. Keep it up.
The biggest message I took from this video, aside from teachin' me how to fry cabbage, which is why I'm here to start with, is that you have children that understand that if they don't like what Mamma's cookin', then they are free to cook for themselves. My Granny stood by that in her kitchen and I learned to cook at an early age as a result. Many parents today would bend over backwards to cook exactly the way, and the foods, that their teenage kids demand, even at the expense of letting their own meal get cold or over cooked. How does one learn/grow from that? Love your channel and your videos and.....Matt's plate has me starvin' right now! LOL
We had the same thing for supper yesterday. We also had a chunk of tenderloin in the crockpot and my husband loves smoked sausage in his fried cabbage. God bless you and your family!
This is my second time to watch this video lol. But I live this kind of cooking. It’s takes me back to the time when I helped my mama cook when I was a young girl. I learned to cook by watching and helping her. She passed away in 1998 and I still miss her. But, I have my wonderful memories and watching this video brought those memories to mind. Now I know that I’ll soon be making this exact meal. Thanks for the reminder and for sharing this video.❤😊
There was a song on the radio when I was a kid called "gimme some side meat and cabbage". Mama made fried cabbage when I was little and she alway shredded it like slaw and put cinnamon in the dish. One of my favorite memories is coming home to a supper of fried side meat and potatoes and gravy. I haven't seen fresh side meat in years at the grocery store. We did have ham and beans, fried potatoes and onions with.a side of cornbread. Life is good. I like the idea of breaking the corn bread and putting the beans over it.
Frying up your cabbage and leave it kinda crunchy, Daddy would call that cookin it just enough till it got the flavor of the stone. Thanks to you and your family for bringing back so many memories
My mom grew up in Wyoming and my dad was from Muskogee Oklahoma. So many of the meals I have watched you prepare are the same as many of the meals we had growing up. I have enjoyed watching you and your family prepare these foods and and being reminded of my connection to my parents.
We make this often. Love seeing the different methods everyone uses. My hubby is an appalachian, his Mamaw helped to settle the National Park. Funny I bought a cabbage today, LOL
Cabbage is so versatile! Fried cabbage w/ any kind of pork is delicious!! I just made cabbage soup using ground beef. I'm gonna try a new recipe next week... oven-baked cabbage.
Halfway to the British “bubble and squeak” recipe! I think they put it in lard and add some chunks of cooked potatoes. They also let it get crunchy on the bottom and turn it to brown the “other side”. Ooo girl, I’m such a fan of cabbage having been raised in a Scandinavian family. Makes me want some right now! Thank you for sharing this recipe 💙
I lived in England and never had it but tried it a few years ago and I failed somehow. Still on my list to try. Maybe a Texas version of Bubble and squeak :)
Thanks Tipper! Grew up on this and still love it! Cornbread, fried cabbage (crunchy) and "pintos". Pot of pintos to be exact, with onions on top. I love the thick pintos though. My hubby will not eat these so I usually eat myself, he grew up in the city and I did not for most of my life. You are right, this meal is great anytime! I love to have cucumbers with it in the summer.
Thank you , mrs tipper Im making fried cabbage like my grandma and daddy did on his farm in McCalla,Alabama. Where I grew up . Now in Texas the past 15 yrs . I miss my daddies fried cabbage & Fat back , Im using bacon tonight & onion with hamburger meat steaks . God bless you Mrs josette Montgomery County, Texas 🙏
We called it fat back or strick meat in my family, my moma( raised during the depression) used it cabbage and with a big skillet of cornbread, fried potatoes and pinto beans..with sliced onions and if the garden was in season we had fresh tomatos and cucumbers! Coming to you from the hills of Tennessee!!
Your definitely sent from heaven above!! Everytime I turned around my Grama would be feeding my oldest son cornbread mushed up with pot liquor ! He is now 35 and 6'4" .
My goodness that looks GOOD!! Fried cabbage was a big part of my childhood dinners. My Mom would slice and fry up a whole can of SPAM and serve each plate one or two slices of the meat with fried cabbage alongside. Usually there was a lettuce and tomato salad as well. I can remember being so small sitting on a chair up to the table that my eyes came to just above the table edge looking at my plate with that lovely supper on it. Have always loved fried cabbage.
My mom, born & raised till age 10 in Clay County, Manchester, Ky, would fry white cabbage. She heated bacon grease, then put cabbage in skillet & poured the hot bacon grease over it & cooked it a bit. When I saw your kilt lettuce, I remembered mom making something like like it but I thought she used cabbage. This video shows what I really remembered! She’d add bit of salt & pepper. I just remember how good it was!!! Thanks for all the trips down memory lane! We lost mom in 2010. I have her recipes! I’ve been making soup beans & cornbread! Also been making her biscuit recipe in her handwriting! Good ole days for sure!!!
Fried cabbage is my favorite since I was a kid. I grew up eating it the exact same way. Get a plateful and put pepper sauce on it. And if my Memaw made hot water cornbread…… I could eat it forever. Me and my grandfather would fight over the last of it. Now it’s a favorite of my kids as well. Now I want some……
@@kevinknight470 I'm going to put hot water cornbread, hot water dumplings (slick dumplings), collards with cornmeal dumplings and biscuits in with things that are very simple in every way but, some people make them good and others not so good. A recipe for hot water cornbread is cornbread with hot water to replace the egg and dairy. Mine's never the same twice, sometimes better than others but, never the best I've ever had. I'm pretty sure not as good as Sheena's Memaw made.
I fry my cabbage with onion. I start the onion first. I also add a bit of water, put a lid on the pan and let the cabbage and onion steam so it is very tender. At the end of cooking I remove the lid, and cook down all the water. The cabbage and onion develop a glaze that is sweet and delicious.
I love the end of the video, at my house, turn all the lights out, except the one over the sink. My Dad said "The kitchen zink". If anything gets dirty up, you better clean it up before Mama gets to the kitchen in the morning.
I love watching your show. I am from Hamilton, AL, in the country,, and we do fix some of the same recipes that yall fix! I think it's bc alot of our ancestors settled down here that were from Appalachia and they brought down their recipes not to mention the 14:02 language that alot of us still use! You have a lovely family and my prayers are with you all and Miss Cindy at this time. Today is June 20,2023, but I've been watching yall for a good while now! I find your show to be very comforting. This is the first time I've commented. I hope you will continue to put up your videos of yourself and your family. God bless you. Nancy Colvin
That looks so good. I have found that in my old age, I am 70. that foods don't have the same taste to them as I remembered them to have in my younger years. I find myself longing to cook the foods that I used to and have them taste the way I remember. I am physically unable to use some of my pots and dishes all by myself so my husband and son help me get them from the cabinet and put them in and get them out of the oven. I'm hankering for a big pot of vegtable beef soup, with cole slaw and cornbread on the side, but oh Lordy by the time I get it ready I'm too wore out to eat it. So I guess i'm warning all you younguns enjoy your food while you can. How did I get to be such a grumpy OLD thing !!! LOL Love you all.❤
Every time I watch Matt make his plate I think, where the heck is he going to put all that?! But a hard worker needs a big meal. This looks so delicious, thank you and sending love from Ohio!
It must be their way down there but how much is on his plate seems reasonable for a man, it's not even piled up. What amazes me is the little amount of meat they eat with many of these meals they make!
Yum yum looks sooo good! Maw maw always cooked her fried cabbage in bacon grease. Nothing better than fried salt pork. The bean soup and that skillet cornbread just make it a perfect meal.
When my family had cabbage for supper, it was a big pot of white cabbage wedges, whole white potatoes and a usually small piece of smoked pork. A day or two late, the leftovers would chopped into pieces and fried in an iron skillet with lard or bacon fat. I liked the leftover dish better than the fresh boiled meal.
Its a staple around East Tennessee, my dear ol' Dad called it Thunder & Lightning! Add some sliced vidalia onions and don't forget the corn bread and the Chow Chow !
I was raised in the south and this IS a feast! We usually have a few potatoes fried up and ham with ours, as we had a smokehouse. But definitely the pinto beans (every now and then "northern" beans), sliced onions, tomatoes and a big wheel of cornbread to go with the cabbage. Good eating!
Don’t get no better. I was raised on soup beans, cornbread and fried potatoes. Of course we loved our cabbage,green beans and mommas canned corn. Sixty years later I still love all of this for supper. And, I can afford to eat about anything I want within reason.
My very favorite meal….love soup beans and cornbread…I fry cabbage with onions and shredded carrot, big sliced tomatoes in summer and corn on the cob…yummy
One of my favorite cabbage meals is boiled cabbage, boiled eggs, cucumbers, and saltine crackers....I craved this when I was pregnant and my daughter loves it, too 😊💜
I grew up on this kind of southern food and still cook it to this day. So good! I don’t like hot spicy food either but that fried cabbage and the rest of the food looks so yummy! Hugs from the southeast coast of Florida.
Thanks for this. My mom would occasionally make fried cabbage when I was a kid, she would fry it in butter with just a little added water, and when it was cooked she would put a little colby cheese on top to melt. So good!
I thought I was the only one that loved raw cabbage. I ate raw cabbage and a few petite carrots for lunch. I keep it in my refrigerator for a quick snack. Same with cucumbers, but not as much as the raw cabbage. I LOVE IT!
I just want you to know that you slung a craving on my husband. I came home to fried cabbage with bacon and onion, cornbread, pinto beans, and kale that we grew last year and froze. He said “Instead of taco bowls for supper, we’re having hillbilly bowls”. Ha! Comfort food is great.
I fry cabbage all the time, but we use beef tallow since we don't eat pork. SO yummy! My daughter and I love just cabbage and onions with tons of garlic cloves, salt smd pepper. We also like our cabbage a little crunchy. 💗
In Belgium, we like our white cabbage in a white sauce (Bechamel sauce) with a pork sausage and boiled potatoes or mashed potatoes. With the drippings of the meat we add some water and nutmeg, pepper, salt to tast and bind it with a corn starch slurry. Serve with a dash of mustard.
Being from Minnesota and Dutch/German/Scandinavian hereitage on the farm we have cabbage so many ways and almost with every meal. You can fry it like this and add egg noodles and butter to make Haluski, a Polish dish from my wifes grandmother. Oh my god I was almost drooling at Matt's plate fried cabbage and beet pickles, my mouth is still watering. YUM!!!!
I always made cabbage and noodles for my girls when they were growing up. It still remains their favorite food and is requested when they come home to visit! Such an easy meal.
That's one great meal. For the ones who have never tried this, is missing out. My mother had the same pressure cooker that y'all have that Matt cooked the beans in. For my cabbage all I do is melt bacon grease in the skillet and add mr cabbage. No salt no pepper. It comes out so sweet. Good eating !!!!!
My grandmother who would have been 103 this year she grew up in Eastern Kentucky . Her family moved into Kentucky early 1800's and she cooked a lot like this ~ my grandmother cooked her cabbage in butter, Chicken broth, salt, pepper, onion.
That looks so good! Cabbage is one of my favorite things! When I was young I would have my mom cut out the heart of the cabbage when she would make coleslaw, and I would chew on that. I haven't had fried cabbage but I love to have baked cabbage. I just mix in saltine crackers, and evaporated milk to chopped cabbage, put a few dabs in butter on top the salt and pepper and bake it till it's done. It's just one of those recipes that relies on just how long you like it baked.
I get a weird craving for fried cabbage at times. As a kid I had soup beans, fried cabbage and corn bread often. A Russian Jewish lady I went out with few years ago did not think Americans ate cabbage for some reason and was amazed at how much I liked it. She would make fried cabbage with a little sauerkraut and bowtie macaroni mixed in.. She would drown it in sour crème and fresh dill. Was amazingly good!
I cook my cabbage cooked a bit soft and then turn it up high and stir fry it until it chars just a bit. It gets kinda sweet tasting. So good. We will do a Korean inspired version with pork or chicken and seasonings. We use hot chili oil for frying
That is a fine Southern Meal! That is something my Mama made alot she was from Floyd County Ky. Family was German English Scott And that was a meal 🙂 we would have a lot. God Bless y'all
This exactly how I cook my cabbage except I add just a pinch of sugar along with salt and pepper. I’m with you Tipper! It’s one of my favorite things and it’s just as good the next day
Great video! I fix fried cabbage with onions and smoked sausage with a stick of margarine! SOMETIMES add a broccoli, cauliflower and carrot combo to it! Cornbread completes the meal!! Like it well done! Thanks for sharing!! Peace and Blessings!!💅❤️🔥💓🙏🙏
@@leggiemeggie5837 Yes, even thinly sliced potatoes! Potatoes, cabbage, carrots and even a can of sweet peas during the last stages of cooking is just Scrumptious!! You can combine almost any veggies you like and get great results is what I have found!! Happy cooking!! 💅💅😍😍💯💯🤗😋😋
I like my pinto beans with chopped raw onions and corn bread broke up in the bowl. Man, off to the store tomorrow to get cabbage, pinto beans and corn bread mix. Thank you, I don't have to think up a dinner for tomorrow. I also love a big bowl of cold slaw and crumbled crackers in it.
I Absolutely LUV Fried Cabbage!!! My best friend from Ohio taught me how to make it!!! I can eat a plate of it and nothing else for dinner!!! I haven't thought about making it for a couple of years!!! Thank you for reminding me about it!!! God Bless!!!
My aunt in Pittsburgh introduced us to halushka, a Polish fried cabbage dish. Cabbage and onions fried with copious amounts of real butter, when done blend buttered egg noodles. It became a wintercamp out tradition with my son’s scout troop. The boys all learned to look forward to it. Thanks for all you do, Tipper.
I'm from SW Florida and this is how we ate growing up, my family on both sides have been in Florida since early 1800,s but came from the Carolina North and south Carolina so we did lose our way of eating thank the Lord cause it's some good eatens.
The video made me smile, Im sure this was recorded earlier, We had crispy pork belly, fried cabbage, some left over pinto beans and a salid to night. I always fry some onion till its almost brown, and use soy sauce instead of salt in the cabbage, seems to bring out a little sweatness. Thanks for the great content as always. Its been a while since I seen anyone serve sliced sweat onion with dinner.
We love cabbage anyway it can be cooked...our favorite is sour cabbage it's a Eastern European recipe. However it's used in cabbage rolls..excellent recipe!! 😋😋
Tipper, I truly enjoy watching your videos, especially when you are cooking. I lost my mother 20 years ago and she cooked in the same manner as you. I love fried cabbage! There was always a pan of cornbread or hot, buttered biscuits on the supper table. My mother had a southern accent, which, of course, I haven't heard in 20 years. Listening to you speak is like being back in her kitchen. Thank you for that. :)
Tipper,it all looks heavenly and I love pickled beets and fried cabbage...I believe tomorrow I'll be havin' what's on your menu good Lord' will. And I look forward to much more of your channel. Tomorrow it's bean soup & fried cabbage with the fixin's ☺️ keep up your awesomeness and originality!
Oh my goodness! That is a meal fit for a royal family! I love to crumble my cornbread like that and put my beans over it. yummy! And fried salt pork makes for some good eatin’! I usually boil my cabbage but I am going to try frying it like this! Looks delicious!
Fried cabbage was a favorite growing up. I still enjoy it so very much. We always cook ours with rendered salt pork fat and then chop the salt pork and toss it back in with the cabbage about halfway through cooking. So yummy.❤❤❤
Raised in a German family we ate a great deal of white cabbage but mainly red cabbage. Red cabbage cooked with an apple, sugar, vinegar and salt and pepper. It was sweet. We usually ate it with a roast, beef or pork, gravy and mashed potatoes. I usually fix my white cabbage as you did.
Thanks Tipper for sharing this wonderful meal!
Love red cabbage cooked that way!! I enjoy it with pork schnitzel and potato dumplings and mushroom gravy!!
Agreed! I like red cabbage cooked that way.
I absolutely love cabbage cooked this way, we have it quite often with pork or a sauerbraten or roast with mashed potatoes or dumplings
That sounds delicious
Thank you for the recepi♥️danke für das Rezept

They also let it get crunchy on the bottom and turn it to brown the “other side”. Ooo girl, I’m such a fan of cabbage having been raised in a Scandinavian family. Makes me want some right now! Thank you for sharing this recipe 💙
I always wondered what "bubble and squeak" was. I used to watch "Two Fat Ladies" cook and they spoke of that often.
That sounds so good 😀
I sometimes put potatoes in mine.
@@jimmiemabe6512 I loved that show!
I lived in England and never had it but tried it a few years ago and I failed somehow. Still on my list to try. Maybe a Texas version of Bubble and squeak :)
You make simple but delicious food on your videos. Wish I could sit down at the table and enjoy it.
Thanks Tipper! Grew up on this and still love it! Cornbread, fried cabbage (crunchy) and "pintos". Pot of pintos to be exact, with onions on top. I love the thick pintos though. My hubby will not eat these so I usually eat myself, he grew up in the city and I did not for most of my life. You are right, this meal is great anytime! I love to have cucumbers with it in the summer.
Thank you , mrs tipper

Love those memories! Thank you
We called it fat back or strick meat in my family, my moma( raised during the depression) used it cabbage and with a big skillet of cornbread, fried potatoes and pinto beans..with sliced onions and if the garden was in season we had fresh tomatos and cucumbers! Coming to you from the hills of Tennessee!!
Your definitely sent from heaven above!! Everytime I turned around my Grama would be feeding my oldest son cornbread mushed up with pot liquor ! He is now 35 and 6'4" .
My goodness that looks GOOD!! Fried cabbage was a big part of my childhood dinners. My Mom would slice and fry up a whole can of SPAM and serve each plate one or two slices of the meat with fried cabbage alongside. Usually there was a lettuce and tomato salad as well. I can remember being so small sitting on a chair up to the table that my eyes came to just above the table edge looking at my plate with that lovely supper on it. Have always loved fried cabbage.
My mom, born & raised till age 10 in Clay County, Manchester, Ky, would fry white cabbage. She heated bacon grease, then put cabbage in skillet & poured the hot bacon grease over it & cooked it a bit. When I saw your kilt lettuce, I remembered mom making something like like it but I thought she used cabbage. This video shows what I really remembered! She’d add bit of salt & pepper. I just remember how good it was!!! Thanks for all the trips down memory lane! We lost mom in 2010. I have her recipes! I’ve been making soup beans & cornbread! Also been making her biscuit recipe in her handwriting! Good ole days for sure!!!
Fried cabbage is my favorite since I was a kid. I grew up eating it the exact same way. Get a plateful and put pepper sauce on it. And if my Memaw made hot water cornbread…… I could eat it forever. Me and my grandfather would fight over the last of it. Now it’s a favorite of my kids as well. Now I want some……
😀 It is so good
Hot water cornbread! I know I like it and I don't know why I don't make it. I do make cornbread often.
Hi Sheena, what is hot water cornbread.? Thanx for sharing.😃
@@kevinknight470 I'm going to put hot water cornbread, hot water dumplings (slick dumplings), collards with cornmeal dumplings and biscuits in with things that are very simple in every way but, some people make them good and others not so good. A recipe for hot water cornbread is cornbread with hot water to replace the egg and dairy. Mine's never the same twice, sometimes better than others but, never the best I've ever had. I'm pretty sure not as good as Sheena's Memaw made.
Cabbage, wether chopped, coleslaw, cooked, sauerkraut or mild kimchi is so awesome. Thanks for sharing.
I also like big chunks cooked in homemade vegetable soup...and cabbage rolls
I fry my cabbage with onion. I start the onion first. I also add a bit of water, put a lid on the pan and let the cabbage and onion steam so it is very tender. At the end of cooking I remove the lid, and cook down all the water. The cabbage and onion develop a glaze that is sweet and delicious.
I always fried up bacon and chopped it into chunks, and then added the cabbage on to it, stirring it in. So good!
A splash of some type of broth is good too, your cooking makes me hungry and ready to get in that kitchen and throw down! Love country and soul food!
I love the end of the video, at my house, turn all the lights out, except the one over the sink. My Dad said "The kitchen zink". If anything gets dirty up, you better clean it up before Mama gets to the kitchen in the morning.
I love watching your show. I am from Hamilton, AL, in the country,, and we do fix some of the same recipes that yall fix! I think it's bc alot of our ancestors settled down here that were from Appalachia and they brought down their recipes not to mention the 14:02 language that alot of us still use! You have a lovely family and my prayers are with you all and Miss Cindy at this time. Today is June 20,2023, but I've been watching yall for a good while now! I find your show to be very comforting. This is the first time I've commented. I hope you will continue to put up your videos of yourself and your family. God bless you.
Nancy Colvin
You guys have a different cooking stove in every video.
So happy we get to celebrate Appalachia and I’ve learn so much from you guys! Thank you
That looks so good. I have found that in my old age, I am 70. that foods don't have the same taste to them as I remembered them to have in my younger years. I find myself longing to cook the foods that I used to and have them taste the way I remember. I am physically unable to use some of my pots and dishes all by myself so my husband and son help me get them from the cabinet and put them in and get them out of the oven. I'm hankering for a big pot of vegtable beef soup, with cole slaw and cornbread on the side, but oh Lordy by the time I get it ready I'm too wore out to eat it. So I guess i'm warning all you younguns enjoy your food while you can. How did I get to be such a grumpy OLD thing !!! LOL Love you all.❤
Thank you Joyce!
Every time I watch Matt make his plate I think, where the heck is he going to put all that?! But a hard worker needs a big meal. This looks so delicious, thank you and sending love from Ohio!
It must be their way down there but how much is on his plate seems reasonable for a man, it's not even piled up. What amazes me is the little amount of meat they eat with many of these meals they make!
Yum yum looks sooo good! Maw maw always cooked her fried cabbage in bacon grease. Nothing better than fried salt pork. The bean soup and that skillet cornbread just make it a perfect meal.
When my family had cabbage for supper, it was a big pot of white cabbage wedges, whole white potatoes and a usually small piece of smoked pork. A day or two late, the leftovers would chopped into pieces and fried in an iron skillet with lard or bacon fat. I liked the leftover dish better than the fresh boiled meal.
Yep... IMO boiled cabbage is good if you boil it in water used for cooking corned beef... but otherwise fried is the way to go.
Its a staple around East Tennessee, my dear ol' Dad called it Thunder & Lightning! Add some sliced vidalia onions and don't forget the corn bread and the Chow Chow !
Amen for the chow chow. Il
Liv NoEast....Cleve. O. Hard x finding it. Amish make it. I order now. O.mg. With some white beans. Wow
I was raised in the south and this IS a feast! We usually have a few potatoes fried up and ham with ours, as we had a smokehouse. But definitely the pinto beans (every now and then "northern" beans), sliced onions, tomatoes and a big wheel of cornbread to go with the cabbage. Good eating!
Don’t get no better. I was raised on soup beans, cornbread and fried potatoes. Of course we loved our cabbage,green beans and mommas canned corn. Sixty years later I still love all of this for supper. And, I can afford to eat about anything I want within reason.
My very favorite meal….love soup beans and cornbread…I fry cabbage with onions and shredded carrot, big sliced tomatoes in summer and corn on the cob…yummy
That sounds so good 😀
One of my favorite cabbage meals is boiled cabbage, boiled eggs, cucumbers, and saltine crackers....I craved this when I was pregnant and my daughter loves it, too 😊💜
I grew up on this kind of southern food and still cook it to this day. So good! I don’t like hot spicy food either but that fried cabbage and the rest of the food looks so yummy! Hugs from the southeast coast of Florida.
Thanks for this. My mom would occasionally make fried cabbage when I was a kid, she would fry it in butter with just a little added water, and when it was cooked she would put a little colby cheese on top to melt. So good!
We have fried cabbage, soup beans, kraut and weiners, and cornbread at least once a week! Love it! 🥰
I am Québécoise, we would cook the salt pork first, until it was crispy, then add cabbage and keep adding as it wilted.
I thought I was the only one that loved raw cabbage. I ate raw cabbage and a few petite carrots for lunch. I keep it in my refrigerator for a quick snack. Same with cucumbers, but not as much as the raw cabbage. I LOVE IT!
We make it cabbage fried in butter with sweet onion. Boil wide noodles. Add together and you get polish haluski.
Sounds great!
I just want you to know that you slung a craving on my husband. I came home to fried cabbage with bacon and onion, cornbread, pinto beans, and kale that we grew last year and froze. He said “Instead of taco bowls for supper, we’re having hillbilly bowls”. Ha! Comfort food is great.
I fry cabbage all the time, but we use beef tallow since we don't eat pork. SO yummy! My daughter and I love just cabbage and onions with tons of garlic cloves, salt smd pepper. We also like our cabbage a little crunchy. 💗
In Belgium, we like our white cabbage in a white sauce (Bechamel sauce) with a pork sausage and boiled potatoes or mashed potatoes. With the drippings of the meat we add some water and nutmeg, pepper, salt to tast and bind it with a corn starch slurry. Serve with a dash of mustard.
Being from Minnesota and Dutch/German/Scandinavian hereitage on the farm we have cabbage so many ways and almost with every meal. You can fry it like this and add egg noodles and butter to make Haluski, a Polish dish from my wifes grandmother. Oh my god I was almost drooling at Matt's plate fried cabbage and beet pickles, my mouth is still watering. YUM!!!!
I always made cabbage and noodles for my girls when they were growing up. It still remains their favorite food and is requested when they come home to visit! Such an easy meal.
One of my favorite meals. Can't get no better than this.
Thank you 😀
That's one great meal. For the ones who have never tried this, is missing out. My mother had the same pressure cooker that y'all have that Matt cooked the beans in. For my cabbage all I do is melt bacon grease in the skillet and add mr cabbage. No salt no pepper. It comes out so sweet. Good eating !!!!!
My grandmother who would have been 103 this year she grew up in Eastern Kentucky . Her family moved into Kentucky early 1800's and she cooked a lot like this ~ my grandmother cooked her cabbage in butter, Chicken broth, salt, pepper, onion.
That meal looks just delicious. I do add bacon back in my fried cabbage. Thank you for sharing Tipper.
Thank you Robin 😀
I love to fry cabbage with kielbasa sausage and onions. It makes a one pan meal. 2 pans if I make cornbread to go with it. GOOD STUFF!
One of my grannies would fry cabbage with hot peppers and linked sausages. I enjoyed watching you cook this. I hope your week is going well! Connor
That sounds good 😀
That looks so good! Cabbage is one of my favorite things! When I was young I would have my mom cut out the heart of the cabbage when she would make coleslaw, and I would chew on that. I haven't had fried cabbage but I love to have baked cabbage. I just mix in saltine crackers, and evaporated milk to chopped cabbage, put a few dabs in butter on top the salt and pepper and bake it till it's done. It's just one of those recipes that relies on just how long you like it baked.
Matt likes his pepper, reminds me of my mom. She sprinkled it on everything. This meal looks delicious, thanks!
I get a weird craving for fried cabbage at times. As a kid I had soup beans, fried cabbage and corn bread often. A Russian Jewish lady I went out with few years ago did not think Americans ate cabbage for some reason and was amazed at how much I liked it. She would make fried cabbage with a little sauerkraut and bowtie macaroni mixed in.. She would drown it in sour crème and fresh dill. Was amazingly good!
I’m actually planning on fried cabbage tonight. Thank you Tipper for sharing.❤
Love that 😀
I laughed, Just got done eating crispy pork belly, fried cabbage, left over pinto beans and a salid - Im plumb full but it look delicious
I cook my cabbage cooked a bit soft and then turn it up high and stir fry it until it chars just a bit. It gets kinda sweet tasting. So good. We will do a Korean inspired version with pork or chicken and seasonings. We use hot chili oil for frying
Sounds good 😀
That is a fine Southern Meal! That is something my Mama made alot she was from Floyd County Ky. Family was German English Scott And that was a meal 🙂 we would have a lot. God Bless y'all
This exactly how I cook my cabbage except I add just a pinch of sugar along with salt and pepper. I’m with you Tipper! It’s one of my favorite things and it’s just as good the next day
Great video! I fix fried cabbage with onions and smoked sausage with a stick of margarine! SOMETIMES add a broccoli, cauliflower and carrot combo to it! Cornbread completes the meal!! Like it well done! Thanks for sharing!! Peace and Blessings!!💅❤️🔥💓🙏🙏
I like mine with smoked sausage as well .. I add onions and bell peppers but I’m going to have to try adding the other veggies too 😊
@@leggiemeggie5837 Yes, even thinly sliced potatoes! Potatoes, cabbage, carrots and even a can of sweet peas during the last stages of cooking is just Scrumptious!! You can combine almost any veggies you like and get great results is what I have found!! Happy cooking!! 💅💅😍😍💯💯🤗😋😋
I like my pinto beans with chopped raw onions and corn bread broke up in the bowl. Man, off to the store tomorrow to get cabbage, pinto beans and corn bread mix. Thank you, I don't have to think up a dinner for tomorrow. I also love a big bowl of cold slaw and crumbled crackers in it.
Thank you Sherry 😀
I love my fried cabbage. A bowl of fried cabbage and cornbread is all I need. No meat necessary. Thank you for sharing!
I get so hungry watching you two cook and eat. Reminds me so much of my upbringing. Appalachia Forever!
In the Ozark Mountains we like to have fried potatoes with our beans and cornbread. And fried cabbage is a family favorite as well ❤️
I absolutely love watching your videos with my family! Your videos help me explain how I grew up. Using the same phrases I use “pat of butter”😂
😀 So glad you enjoy them
I Absolutely LUV Fried Cabbage!!! My best friend from Ohio taught me how to make it!!! I can eat a plate of it and nothing else for dinner!!! I haven't thought about making it for a couple of years!!! Thank you for reminding me about it!!! God Bless!!!
Love fried cabbage!!! Never tried it with cornbread and soup beans but you've made me hungry for it so I gotta try it now!
My aunt in Pittsburgh introduced us to halushka, a Polish fried cabbage dish. Cabbage and onions fried with copious amounts of real butter, when done blend buttered egg noodles. It became a wintercamp out tradition with my son’s scout troop. The boys all learned to look forward to it.
Thanks for all you do, Tipper.
I'm from SW Florida and this is how we ate growing up, my family on both sides have been in Florida since early 1800,s but came from the Carolina North and south Carolina so we did lose our way of eating thank the Lord cause it's some good eatens.
That is a real feast! It all looks so good and wholesome. Thanks for keeping up the traditions of cooking and enjoying with family.
The video made me smile, Im sure this was recorded earlier, We had crispy pork belly, fried cabbage, some left over pinto beans and a salid to night. I always fry some onion till its almost brown, and use soy sauce instead of salt in the cabbage, seems to bring out a little sweatness. Thanks for the great content as always.
Its been a while since I seen anyone serve sliced sweat onion with dinner.
Thank you Tom 😀
We love cabbage anyway it can be cooked...our favorite is sour cabbage it's a Eastern European recipe. However it's used in cabbage rolls..excellent recipe!! 😋😋
Tipper, I truly enjoy watching your videos, especially when you are cooking. I lost my mother 20 years ago and she cooked in the same manner as you. I love fried cabbage! There was always a pan of cornbread or hot, buttered biscuits on the supper table. My mother had a southern accent, which, of course, I haven't heard in 20 years. Listening to you speak is like being back in her kitchen. Thank you for that. :)
I'm sorry you lost her! So happy I remind you of her 😀
Tipper,it all looks heavenly and I love pickled beets and fried cabbage...I believe tomorrow I'll be havin' what's on your menu good Lord' will. And I look forward to much more of your channel. Tomorrow it's bean soup & fried cabbage with the fixin's ☺️ keep up your awesomeness and originality!
Thank you so much 😀
Oh my goodness! That is a meal fit for a royal family! I love to crumble my cornbread like that and put my beans over it. yummy! And fried salt pork makes for some good eatin’! I usually boil my cabbage but I am going to try frying it like this! Looks delicious!
So sweet! And Matt is a Peaceful soul
Fried cabbage was a favorite growing up. I still enjoy it so very much. We always cook ours with rendered salt pork fat and then chop the salt pork and toss it back in with the cabbage about halfway through cooking. So yummy.❤❤❤
This is one of our favorite combinations. You're so right. Fried cabbage goes well with so many things
I fry bacon and use the grease to cook my onions and cabbage in. I fry sliced polish sausage and jalapeño and mix it al with the bacon.
Sounds great!
Every time I watch one of your wonderful shows, I can taste the memories...thank you
