This channel has helped me understand why hearths were so important. It was basically your stove. Yes, the fire itself was used to cook over, but see how much of the cooking she does by bringing coals onto the heart and putting pans over them. The bigger the hearth, the more you could cook at one time.

[@shuvmesumknowlegde]

Yes its also called a dutch oven

[@marykopydlowski6037]

My grandma made several dishes at the cabin in the fireplace. I was too young to really learn anything

[@karenegan1688]

I thought it was very clever. I didn’t realise that hearths were used in this way and it makes so much sense.

[@opybrook7766]

Not exactly but close 😀

[@DonPatrono]

after all, the saying "home is where the heart is" originally was "home is where the hearth is" a hearth warms the ambient, allows you to make basically every type of cooking (boiling, stewing, frying, if you have a dutch oven even baking...), heats the water for your ablutions, even provides light in the evening.... a Hearth was truly the heart of the house

I loved cooking on a fireplace. I still think the food tastes better. I worked in a historical village for 15 years. Brought my kids up there Your videos bring back great memories.

[@nessamillikan6247]

The only problem with cooking on a hearth is that everything you eat is basically smoked. It's hard for me to imagine now since I love the taste of real smoke flavor, but I can imagine that many people got worn out by it.

[@victorianidetch]

We all know Justine will slay anything she attempts.

[@mconcho1812]

I love this....I am Mexican American and embrace both cultures. While I was visiting my family in Mexico I was taught by my family to cook in a hearth such as this and later they upgraded to stove. It was so interesting to think that this is how it was in Conquistador era. We have really evolved to more easier and quicker way of living and eating

[@johngallagher2313]

A most interesting channel. In my years of wandering in the Ozark mountains of Arkansas I have often found old homesteads long abandoned with little remaining. I often wondered about the people that lived there and their lives. Your channel is a glimpse back in time.

[@merrymaya]

When I lived in rural Montana, I’d see the old cabins falling back into the earth & always wondered about their history! Loved photographing them! Have a beautiful day!🍂🦃🍂

[@THX-vb8yz]

Same here in northern Michigan (Harbor Springs), I love wondering back woods of old trails and come across old sawmills and homesteads.

[@jennymowery79]

I lived in the Ozarks in Missouri as a child our closet neighbor was two miles away. I lived with my mom my auntie and my five cousins we were all close in age . My grandparents lived a bout a half a mile away up on top of a big hill we lived in "the cottage" an old two story three bedroom house. I was in kindergarten and would take schoolbus. Neighbors had horses and cows. We would go exploring and play til started getting dark. We loved the frog ponds and empty barns the creeks and climbing the tallest trees we could it was really wonderful. I lived there in Rogersville til I was in second grade then my mom got married and we moved to Springfield. I don't remember ever going to a grocery store the whole time I lived there in Rogersville. I only went into town to go to school. I remember a lil gas station my mom would stop at and I'd sometimes get a piece of candy. Even though I was only there for a few years it was most definitely the best time of my childhood it was wonderful.

I used to be a Civil War re-enactor and cooked all these things over a campfire. It was so much fun and the soldiers in my unit always gobbled everything up. Great memories!

[@voyaristika5673]

We bought a meal at a re-enactment cooked by a couple who attended different venues. Everything was 100% authentic as grown, smoked, cooked in 1860s, except for one minor exception I can't remember. I was totally unprepared for how DELICIOUS that food was. It was all cooked over the fire, including the raspberry pie, tarts. Just thinking about it makes me so hungry!

[@GeckoHiker]

I'm tired, too. And I cooked using a microwave, food processor, stick blender, and an electric range today. Justine is an Early American cooking champ!

[@Sokmnkee]

She's the REAL cooking ninja!

[@BloodInTheStrawberries]

If you want to shake things up a little and cook 18th century foods but only have modern equipment then you might like this channel if you haven't seen it: kzbin.info

[@GeckoHiker]

@@BloodInTheStrawberries Yes, I follow Townsend and Son, too. Thank you! Edit: I have 19th century pioneer cooking equipment, handed down in the family. Cast iron skillets, dutch ovens, some later enamelware, wooden butter churn, things like that. I can cook pioneer food, which was very plain--and traditional Native American meals--all over a campfire. Not reenacting, just life, camping, hiking, etc. I think of the main part of my ancestry as Earlier American. In our daily lives we garden, forage, fish, hunt, and sometimes prepare meals like nut soup, pine bark flour flatbread, acorn cakes, roasted cattail roots, succotash, venison stew, and masa tortillas. There is a video on KZbin of a woman processing acorns the traditional way. I use modern gadgets whenever I can. I like to understand the origin, history, availability, and preparation of all foods.

[@brothersofliberty2437]

Closest I come to cooking like that is my brick firepit. But yeah. In the kitchen I use electric griddle, an electric skillet, I had a manual egg beater/mixer, oven, stove, pressure cooker, and deep fryer but can never imagine doing a whole dinner like that. Although watching this channel I would like to try it on my fire pit.

All the prep work and cooking reminds me of being at my maternal Grandmother's house for Christmas. All of us "women folk" would be in the kitchen helping Grandma prepare the meal. We would have carrots, corn, turnips, turkey, gravy, and for desert, Grandma had mince pie and apple pie. We children would sit at a card table, while the grownups would sit at the big dining table! Such fond memories! Her woodstove was always hot, and we kids learned how to use the tongs for lifting the iron top on the stove. That was back in the 1960s and 1970s. Gosh, seeing Justine prepare everything by herself made me wish that I could go there to help her! No wonder she's so tired! Poor dear! I wish you all a happy Thanksgiving!

[@bluelagoon1980]

Many women did. The coals on the hearth and long full skirts were a dangerous combination. Even cook stoves were a problem. When kitchens, cooking utensils, and recipes started being standardized, one of the things they did was put the stove in a sensible place so you didn't have to walk around it all the time as you gathered and prepped your ingredients.

[@wyntersteele1a]

Honeyyy, I was thinking the same thing.

[@GillianMcGeorge-Cruikshank]

Its a shame most of school stopped teaching baking, cooking, canning, sewing, basic math, cursive writing, grammar or spelling. They don't teach financial responsibility or budgeting. Our schools replaced skills needed to survive, especially in today's economy with gender and sexuality issues. If a war comes to North America today it Will be much worse than the great depression as most Canadians donot know the basic household skills. On top of that butter is 8 dollars a pound, sugar and flour is so expensive. Maple syrup is 15. For 500 ml. Most people hear do not shop bulk, dont realize how much they can save. They could shop in bulk as multi family shoppers. God bless channels like this.

It’s the clothing, it just makes her look that way. When I wore my costume, my mother-in-law would say, “that’s not very flattering”, and I would say, “no, but it’s authentic!” That’s the sign of a good reenactor!

I have learned so much from watching you. We have a wood stove as our back up heat and in past storms where we have lost power we have cooked on it, made coffee, stayed warm, heated water, etc. IF we had to, we could cook over an open fire, as well.

[@permiebird937]

Lovely Thanksgiving table you've set. How funny your landlord turns up just in time for dinner. Sweet video. One tiny note, back in the day, a working class housewife would usually have a second task at hand, like knitting a sock, mending a shirt, making new clothes or preparing food for storage for times she wasn't actively cooking. Doing something along those lines would add to the ambiance, give your viewers anticipation as we watch how some projects develop, and would be in line with a working class housewife's busy day. Women without a maid spent a lot of time keeping their household's textiles in good repair. Any time Ron is at home and not cooking, he would have a second task like carving, casting musket balls, or mending leather items. It was the only way everything got done. Nice video 😊

Justine, this is wonderful! This is the first year my family is not having a feast meal tomorrow as my mom is in the hospital due to C*v*d. We're all sad. My step-father is sick too, but we pray her lungs to get stronger and a miracle happens and by the end of the week we hope and we pray she will be home with us! So seeing this warms my heart. I can't wait for our feast to come, and I am even going to send her this via email so she can have something to watch in the hospital! 😊

My dad was also hospitalized for a week due to COVID and double pneumonia, he's healing now it's been a few months but we're so grateful. I hope your mom goes home soon and you all enjoy your Thanksgiving feast!

I enjoy watching your videos soooo much!! Seeing how the cooking utensils/pots were made from that era is just amazing!😊

[@catherineluthultz5494]

I've been waiting for this .. Y'all did not disappoint me. I loved it. Your so good at living that time. I can't wait for the next one. 💋❤

You think they live like this in real life? No way. They have to have a modern home somewhere, right? One thing is certain, they definitely use a supermarket. Who would have that much sugar on hand and so many spices at that time - only the rich. This is a commoner's cabin.

[@catherineluthultz5494]

Well of course not. Don't you get it ? They are doing these videos for the public. And how do you know if they don't have the money for sugar ? They said in the video that Ben killed a duck. So just enjoy the video and don't judge.

Wow! Lots of work. And all the wonderful foods. I remember Mom made and baked three pies the evening before Thanksgiving, but she made the other side dishes while the turkey was roasting. It took at least 8 hours for my mom to roast a 24 pound tom turkey in our Welbilt oven. The windows would steam up, and the house was filled with sage, rosemary, bacon and other great smells. That's how I imagined the cabin would smell!

I can't wait. You inspire me. So glad I found you.

What a feast! So much food to prepare from scratch! I realize this is for Thanksgiving but just preparing meals took the whole day! A lot of hard work but how rewarding, healthy & simple.

[@billieboybuddha4238]

I wish you Americans all a wonderfull Thanksgiving! God bless!

[@user-io8gx9ob4q]

Just found your channel and I am in love! How wonderful to find some thing like this to watch in such a crazy, fast paced world. While Hollywood is constantly trying to think of the next crazy, jaw dropping form of entertainment I’ll be here watching this. 😅🥰

[@blaze2001]

Happy Thanksgiving from my family to yours!!! You guys have such a warm inviting spirit. I just watch the videos for the sense of family and community. Also I'm cooking right now too. I'm roasting chicken, making candies sweets and collard greens. Oh and mac and cheese.

[@badarock177]
