Daily Pastured Poultry Move. Plus, Smoked Ribs and Campfire Baked Potatos. Homestead VLOG

First thing to do is move the chicken tractors. Then fill up their feed and water. But most of the day we are going to relax and take it easy. We are smoking Ribs and cooking baked potatoes in the campfire. Let's grab the Allis Chalmers and grab some firewood.

Idea: They make aluminum/metal carts which hold to garbage cans each....that would work well for your feed cans....easy to move!

[@lorenmeyer5290]

♡Have a wonderful week!♡

[@letartcircuitrider118]

It is great from time to time to step back and rest from all the work you and Rebecca are doing, and to enjoy the benefits of raising your own food source. Great video views...have a great weekend. Hay days are coming.

[@johnj9920]

Another enjoyable video! Keep up the good work!

[@ericbarnes9303]

Love y’all’s setup. Y’all are living the dream

[@stevemartinez6757]

Man that supper looked delicious! I could almost smell and taste it! Those are some really nice days. Take some time off from working and just enjoy each other's company and relax. I can't imagine a better day.

[@teresasmith2038]

Evan and Rebecca love y'alls little slice of heaven there. I know it's been a ton of work, but it sure looks peaceful.

[@Tomhohenadel]

Morning Evan and Rebecca. What a gorgeous Thursday morning. . Thanks for the video

[@DavisFamilyLife]

Ribs look delicious! 😊😊😊

[@duaneklein4924]

The farmstead looks good on you two! I know why you really built the new shop...you need more freezer space for all that great food you are raising. Ribs, baked taters, made me hungry! You have to relax and enjoy everything you two have built. You both work hard and it’s so true that on the farm there is always one more job to do. So glad you enjoyed the holiday! Love your channel, thanks for taking us along!

[@CountryViewAcres]

yes, we will need another freezer

[@Tonetwisters]

MUCH agreed.

[@hillsidefarm7355]

Looks delicious !

[@helodriver20]

Nice job Evan. It’s nice to see all the extra attention given to the B-Roll. Lots of work, but such a great product. Your Memorial Day looked great. #WeRemember

[@Bex-rg8pj]

[@csnanny1882]

Love those ducks.

[@roscoejones4515]

Didn't realize you had an Emergency Backup Dog! Looks like a great Memorial Day, well done.👍

[@jarrett2800]

3-2-1 method on the ribs work perfect every time..

[@debrabeam5474]

Those potatoes and tins looked delicious! I could vfc tell your ribs were so tender 😋😋. God bless 🇺🇸❤

[@farmcentralohio]

The ducks and chickens have trained you well.

[@Robe999]

Evan Your a Legend , thank you for sharing this its great seeing the country life and how much work is required , a huge Hi from Perth Australia

[@jeanniearnold7906]

That is one beautiful slab of ribs.. Yum yum.

[@carlfoltz4244]

Sir, please consider wearing eye protection when driving the tractor through the overgrowth. You can easily get smacked in the eye and damage your eyesight. I speak from experience..

[@Tonetwisters]

Those steers are good-sized critters, in this episode! Those ribs! What time's supper?!? :-) And good for you on the lighter work day around the ranch! Thanks for sharing your day with us, Evan! Porky pig looks super delicious, by the way.

[@coyotiess]

looks good have a nice meal!

[@pampilgrim2274]

Good morning, Evan! The chicken tractor is GREAT!! The hanging feed and water work so well. They not only save time and extra work, they also appear to be saving feed.

[@alanmcclorey8047]

great video

[@bgrassguitar]

Man, those ribs looked good! Love your place. You all are doing great!

[@jasontaylor9871]

Watching ya'll eat I can see who sneaks a little food under the table

[@jerrygibs8120]

What s blessing to watch you and Rebecca growing your farm and animals. Becoming as self sufficient as our great grandparents and grand parents is a goal that many more want to pursue. Watching your channel inspires me and thank you for your endeavors to succeed. It all motivates many. Blessings to you both. ☝️🙏🙌💪👍👉...

[@Tonetwisters]

100 K soon! I enjoy your videos.

[@jennifercockrell3374]

I love and watch all of your videos; but I especially love the videos that you make like this. Such a beautiful place. Those ribs looked awesome. I've never had baked potatoes cooked on a camp fire and I hope to try them out real soon.

[@margaretbedwell58]

Now that was a Memorial dinner....it looked so good, I could almost taste it. Thanks for taking us along on your day it looked like a perfect day. I'm not much of a fisherman although I used to go once in awhile with my late husband. I mostly fed the fish. LOL. Y'all have a Blessed day.

[@dalelusk622]

good cooking , yall good

[@kirbyholton1082]

Good looking ribs. Although I prefer mine dry, but I will baste mine at times. Love your channel.

[@T_157-40]

Perfect!

[@Smacker3801]

when the cicadas are out and singing, that is a good time to fish for bass, never fails...

[@robinpearson4583]

Evan, When you feed the chickens, if you just put food at the end you're going to move the tractor, I think this will keep the chickens nearer you, so that they don't get hit by back of the chicken tractor as you drag it to the new location. Once you finish moving the tractor, then completely fill the full length of the feeder trough.

[@bobjoncas2814]

...good one, bon appetite..

[@danielheartsill4269]

At some point wrap sweet potatoes and cook them that way. Sooooooo good.

[@mpyndur2552]

les pommes de terre à la braise , c'est extra , juste avec une noisette de beurre au moment de la dégustation !!! coucou de France ....

[@peggysizemore4207]

Hi Evan👋🏼

[@reax2237]

That’s livin right there!

[@JM-me1vh]

The good life!😀

[@EngineersHomestead]

If you haven't already, put some silicone around the handle of the feed can to keep it dry. We keep a similar one outside for cat food.

[@lionscircle4700]

My workplace safety program harps on us to push loads rather then pull them in order to reduce injury. I see how you move your chicken house. Maybe adding some wheels at the far end in order to reduce the load of dragging it could help. Maybe ATC/side by side opportunity to reduce physical wear and tear beforehand. love the show.

[@andrewwindsor5962]

From the other ones you use the tractor things put wheels at the back it makes it easier to move

[@fallingzeppelin69]

You can hear the cicadas in the background lol. We have them pretty bad in Indiana too

[@vincent7331]

🙂 nice 👍🏻

[@marksimonar1550]

Well when the grass seeds out it gets to gritty to eat and the goats dont like gritty food. Learned that about 30 yrs ago from my grandpa !

[@debbiebarnes2723]

Yummy 😋

[@joedorotik9159]

SWEET!!!!

[@happyhuntress9244]

Those ribs and baked potatoes look yummy. You may want to try corn on cob on the grill. I soak the ears in water with the husk still attached to cook... comes out moist and flavorful.

[@TonyT-lo2sz]

Have you heard of pink paper. Great for wrapping ribs to continue cooking .let the smoke in.

[@luby1234]

life just dont get better than that!

[@derekadams9856]

Hey Evan. I found how to set the slip clutch on your baler. Loosen the nuts on the springs just until the springs is just loose. Then tighten the nuts 1 1/2 turns. That will set the tension on the clutch

[@HillsideAcres]

Pond looks great, i think we are going to try a bottle of the blue dye to give it a blue tint in ours and help with some algae growth, would look really nice in yours i would think!

[@NEOATHS]

The dye filters out the sunlight for weeds growing from the bottom but it may not help for algae floating on top of the water. Copper sulfate will kill off algae or just improve water aeration or movement like a fountain just my 2 cents.

[@HillsideAcres]

@@NEOATHS That would make the most sense i actually just picked up a gallon of dye, curious to see what effect it will have on my small pond, i may look into a solar or windmill option for aeration as there is no power within about quarter mile of the pond.

[@rockingretirementoutdoors3249]

You can cut an angle on the bottom boards of your chicken trolley so it will slide better. I heard you say you were going to add some wheels, but just trying to help your back. Have a great weekend!

[@kcjones4211]

3-2-1 Ribs are the best!

[@roystonnetto2503]

if you anchor the trough at either end it wong swing when you move it forward.

[@johnsadler8637]

Good morning! Nice easy day at Country View Acres. Do you mind sharing your rub ingredients and process? Sounds like one of the 3-2-1 variants. What temps?

[@CountryViewAcres]

Yes, it is 3-2-1 ribs. 225 degrees Fahrenheit

[@jbraeslamb]

Ducks should have a small pond to wallow and wash in.

[@jimputnam2044]

You can get free pallets use them to set your implements on. Keeps them from sinking into the ground and rusting. Also makes it easier to hook up next time.

[@stevemartinez6757]

That's what I do. It also makes moving them around easier if you need to with the tractor forks.

[@TRINITY-ks6nw]

Amen brother

[@Bamaman14k]

What a picturesque setting. I have to say I am quite envious of your new tractor. I hope you all had a great memorial Day Rebecca and Evan, and the food look fabulous. What do you use as a dry rub Evan? I saw that on there and I'm always interested in new recipes.

[@rolandbordelon4556]

Evan, you should place a pan of water with seasoning in it. It prevents the meat from drying out

[@margaretbedwell58]

They didn't look dry to me.

[@montoyaj505]

Smalltown 442.... been watching all your videos I stated from video 1 and now I'm on video where you found the 45 duck eggs

[@CountryViewAcres]

You have a lot more videos to go. I think I have 556 videos now.

[@montoyaj505]

@@CountryViewAcres I enjoy your videos. My wife and I along with our two kids are moving to start out homestead on 10 acres in a little town called Vadito New Mexico you in the mountains. We have a river that runs though our property.

[@douglaskerr6813]

When's Rebecca going to join Bass pro tour? You gotta love a women who like to fish and eats ribs .Thanks for the video take care.

[@SIB1963]

Try putting the chicken feed only at the front of the troughs (near where you're pulling). That might keep the chickens up front instead of in back.

[@marksimonar1550]

Hey Even ! What about pulling the outdoor chicken tractors around with a 4 wheeler ! Its better then blowing your back out again !

[@varunbharadwaj3935]

Really nice homestead..I just wanted to give a suggestion..since u have so much trees and wildlife around just make sure u thin out the forest area and fence ur pastures around because the bacteria from wildlife can really do a number on ur life stock..I didn't have any idea abt this until I had to put down a horse and couple of my cattle

[@edithsavoy7156]

Put tin foil on the grill to keep it clean, when you're done cooking your food on it just roll it up and throw it away. No more scrubbing necessary.

[@jansmith8021]

I thought that was cicadas in the back ground, not here in Ohio yet well not where I live but heard they were bad in Indiana and Illinois!
