Hobo Casserole -- Fantastic Comfort Meal

[@pwalker2202]

I can’t wait to make this. I’m recently widowed so I think I’ll make 2 out of it and freeze one. I could watch you guys all day long! Can’t believe I’ve known about you until here recently but I throughly enjoy each & every video! You both are such an inspiration to others with your faith, long marriage and family. Please keep the videos coming! 🙏🏻🤗🙏🏻

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much

Great casserole. I live by myself and only eat at home. With this one and most recipes you share with us, I always take some to my neighbor who is 85 and doesn't cook. She loved this one.

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much Judy

Glad to hear that you share with your neighbors. As God says love they neighbors as thyself. JoAnn from Mississippi

The Hobo Casserole looks awesome! I remember seeing Hobos when I was growing up in the 50's and 60's. Sometimes they would walk down the alley behind our house looking for food on the garage cans. My father explained to us that there was a difference in Hobos and bums. He said the Hobos would travel from town to town on the trains looking for work and odd jobs to make a little money. During the depression era many of them had homes and families in other towns and would try to make enough money to send some home. They weren't seeking hand outs and were willing to do any work they could get. The bums were just beggars and didn't want to work and mostly begged for money to buy alcohol and/or drugs. He taught us to respect the hobos.

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much, your dad was right. I wish that I could have said it that good in the video.

[@cumberlandquiltchic1]

I remmeber we had them In 70s. They’d ride the rails . Our town had one, delis nobles was his name. He came in my dads business and was nice , my dad would give him food or probably a little $ but he’d sweep up etc Seems most smalls towns had one.

[@realitycheck723]

This dish looks delicious. I love one dish casseroles, great for leftovers. For the last four years I have loomed (“knitted”) winter hats while watching tv and donated them in late fall to homeless shelters. I applaud your work in connection with the homeless. Keep up the great meals!’ Audrey from Alabama ❤

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Wonderful! Thanks very much

[@StevieCorradi]

I live in Washington State. In the 50's and early 60's , we would make hobo stew in a three pound coffee can at the end of our driveway. Just us kids. The stew was fantastic. We also had hobos the lived down the railroad tracks. The one man my mom gave food to would tell us kids to never go near the camp. I love this kind of food. Also enjoy your channel.

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much

[@shelbylynnwilliams8520]

The casserole looks delicious. I liked hearing the hobo stories and also the difference between hobos & homeless. You are spot on. I appreciate you typing out the recipe.

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

It was delicious. Thanks very much

[@terrycowley966]

Wow that sizzle when you took it out of the oven! I'm going to have to try this just due to your enthusiasm, Calvin. Hobo stories always remind me of that old Roger Miller song. Completely different situation to the homelessness of today💔

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much Terry

[@susanhickman1746]

A very nice “down home styled hot dish “. I enjoyed watching you do the prepping and then, cooking and assembling your casserole. I can see this is the kind of meal with many possibilities for variety of different ingredients to keep it interesting! Thx for sharing. Susan

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks so much!

[@Sandra-ij9fk]

I had to make this in home ec in jr high. We called it poor mans casserole. My father and uncle road the rails when they were kids ( they didn't have a home). So much love and respect for them. Great video Calvin

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much Sandra. I bet that your dad can tell some great stories.

[@daveanddeb5629]

Calvin, you cook as well as Marie. I'm sure she brags on your cooking too. I read some of the comments about the difference between hobos and bums. I don't remember SeeIng too many hobos growing up but I would hear about them every once in awhile from my grandparents. Now a days there are too many begging for a hand out. Not in our tiny town but in the larger city near by. Our church has what we call homeless bags that are filled with food and essentials, that way they get something good.

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much, that is a good idea that your church has

[@MaryAnderson-xs5wd]

Thanks for helping the needy. God Bless!

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Fantastic! Thanks very much

[@venuscruz6075]

Since I don't eat meat, I think I will try this recipes with cooked lentils and then saute the onion and pepper. For the cream soup....I will make a base with oat milk, and then top with my plant based cheese recipe. I think it will be tasty. Thanks for the idea.

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Great idea!

[@janicecanfield9211]

👋 kids, again. Call me nuts but I could smell this dish !!!! Looks Tony the Tiger great to me. I'll make it ! 🤗 🤗

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

We really enjoyed this meal. Marie even went back for seconds.

[@janicecanfield9211]

@@SouthernCountryLiving seriously ? Marie doesn't do that ! Ok, moving this one waaaaaaay up on the to make list !

[@sueblinn6343]

That meal looks fantastic just the way I love to cook. And Calvin love to listen to your stories as well. We have very few homeless here but when the trains were here they would live down by the tracks no one bothered them at all. They just stayed awhile and moved on. So can't wait to try this meal.

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much Sue

[@DottieLewis]

Never heard of this type of casserole before, but it sure does look delicious, Mr. Calvin. Will have to give it a try. Thanks so much. I pray you and Mrs. Marie have a wonderful week.

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

It was very delicious. Thanks very much

[@shirleysmith3068]

I am definitely making this tomorrow. Thanks for showing us exactly how to put it together!!

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

You are so welcome!

[@normarutledge]

My Mother when I came home for lunch from my job I would ask her what she was cooking it smelled delicious she said it was stone soup so with eyebrows arching upwards I said really because I didn’t see no stones in but she told the story and great story it was. I’m sure if anyone who lives down south or maybe other places knew or knows what stone soup is. I miss listening to old folks stories. Have a great week ❤️

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

I don't remember stone soup but I will check on it.

[@normarutledge]

Don’t know if you ever watched Little House on The Prairie but there was one episode. Laura Ingalls was sick so her mother taught her class at school. But Ma Ingall’s told a story about this one man in the community had one potato, so he started going door to door asking if people had any vegetables but nobody would oblige him mmm. So he went to the middle of the town and built a fire put his kettle on and some water put a little salt in. People kept watching him & started to feel bad for him until one might have brought a carrot, one a onion, then pretty soon others started bringing things to add to th kettle it turns he really didn’t ha e a potato but a stone but someone did bring a potato. All he had was a stone but by the time everyone came an added something the moral of the story always be kind to Other with home or homeless because you met know whether you might find yourself in a situation like that. If you have something to spare please 🙏 share. That’s how Stone soup came along because others started bringing things all he initially had was a stone and that’s what he throwed in his kettle. Alway when you buy & it’s where you can buy two of everything you never know what circumstance you may be faced With

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

@@normarutledge very nice story. Thanks for sharing that with us. I've don't remember ever seeing that episode.

A lot of them do not want to be in shelters, or in organized apartments that are subsidized, because there are rules that must be followed. What a great cook you are Calvin. Also, you look so handsome with your haircut. Marie is a very fortunate woman!

[@marthadescoteau5994]

Loved your old hobo stories. I remember back in late 50's, there were always kids dressing up as hobos for Halloween. Think I would have some cornbread and maybe green beans with this. Printed your recipe and will probably make this next week.

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much Martha. We really enjoyed this meal.

[@briannas.2335]

Your channel has been such a blessing to me. I have a eating disorder where I'm scared to try new foods. So I've been finding it more and more difficult over the last few years to find food i like. So much food i liked before has gone down in quality. You've given me so much to try and I've really been enjoying it so much. Thank you.

[@normarutledge]

Looks delicious Mr. Calvin. Enjoyed your Hobo story there use to be this little old man that would hang around the shop. He was always walking somewhere but the odd thing about him is he wasn’t per say nasty but he looked like a bum and not that clean he never had a vehicle but people would always especially back then those that knew him would. You would have thought he was nasty and always picking at his skin but when he needed a little a little money people would always give him something to do but when he passed away my Dad found out because the man lived by himself but he did have family close by but he had a speech problem because he died at home I believe or got sick and died at home or hospital but when people those that knew him he must have had a will or not but when they started searching his house to their surprised he wasn’t as poor as he seemed they found where he store money in canning jars in thee block foundation of his house almost a half of million he had saved his entire life. The old saying never judge a book 📖 by its cover. Your recipe looks delicious 😋 ❤️🙏✝️

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Interesting story, thanks for sharing

[@DellaKay1]

Calvin you are quiet the chef. I will definitely be making this version of the Hobo casserole this week. I have never put Cajun seasoning in mine. But I can tell by the taste test it is delicious. I love casseroles and simple comfort foods. Marie’s plate looked scrumptious with the fresh vegetables. Another great video. Thank you for sharing with us.
