Similar to what we do only we buy our tortillas! Truly enjoy your content! Good stuff

[@bamahomestead6323]

My nanaw Crocker always kept a tin of pork lard/bacon drippins next to her stove. She never had leftovers cause we ate it all! She fried chicken in a huge cast iron deep skillet. Everything was made from scratch including loaf breads & pies. To make flour tortillas she smashed the balls of dough out. No rollin' pin needed. They had a coal furnace in the basement and oil lamps. I have a photo of her & gramps taken before they headed west to Springfield, MO in their Ford model T. They were the salt of the earth. Survived the great depression & 2 world wars. I miss the America I once knew.

[@deem3204]

My grandma was from New Mexico and I can assure you, she ALWAYS had a tin of lard/bacon grease on her stove as well. Gosh she made some yummy food. Good times.

i really glad Mr. Kent decided to share all of his knowledge and experiences with us here on KZbin. Its very nice to see something so wholesome and for some reason i just enjoy listening to him tell his stories and share his experiences. I'm a 33 year old guy who is doing alright in life but I really do miss my father and grandfather. They were cajuns (I live in louisiana) and lived similar lifestyles to what Mr. Kent talks about with his life stories and such. Thank you for all of these uploads and stories.

My great grandmother used to wake up every morning, except Sundays, and make homemade tortillas and lunch. Oh the GOOD ol’ days….

100% agree on the secret ingredient being Bacon Grease! We were told this a few years ago by a "professional" tortilla maker at a Breakfast Taco place in South Texas, USA. It makes all the difference! Thx Kent & Shannon for another great video!

[@CowboyKentRollins]

That it does, thanks for watching

[@randy-9842]

Thank you so much! She has a great eye and the Good Lord blesses us with a great picture

[@bigfamilyaffair]

I don't use baking powder in my homemade tortillas because my mom never did and I learned from her. I use the brown Manteca from my local Mexican market and reserve the bacon grease when I refry my homemade pinto beans. I love to sprinkle cheese on top, cover it, and let it melt. I loved your video and that (Bertha) stove!!!

Super fun video! And it looks like you got a storm blowing in.

[@robohippy]

The wood lathe is the best Christmas present I ever bought myself. Mostly I made bowls, but any excuse to use the lathe, which includes rolling pins. So, I am at a show, and a woman from Mexico came up to me and asked if I could make a "Palote" for her. Turns out this is a traditional smaller rolling pin that dads would make for their daughters before getting married. Generally they are smaller, like 9 to 12 inches. Some like straight cylinders, some like tapered to both ends like what is called a "French" or pastry rolling pin style. I still make some, and as I said earlier, any excuse to play on my wood lathes...

Lard (pork fat) is a fundamental in authentic tortillas. Bacon grease is the smokey version of it. Game on!

[@paladonis]

A few comments and compliments: 1) I love the sepia filter that you are using Shan! Gives a cool Old West look to it. 2) I think you were looking for Chili Powder or Paprika, Kent. Though I use a blend of Mexican Oregano (not Italian), Smoked Paprika, Chipotle Chili powder, Cumin, salt and pepper. (fresh garlic and onion so I forgo Onion powder and garlic powder) 3) if you REALLY want a treat, fine dice some hatch green chilies into the tortilla dough. (Though the box shredder you used would work great and I am stealing that idea!) 4) Lastly, if you REALLY want a round shape, use the outside ring of a springform pan like a large cookie cutter. Thank you for all the wonderful things You, Shan, and the Taste Testers do!
