[@laurengracepop]

Anyone else watching this in 2021?? No? Just me? Must be the current 10 week lockdown Im in and needing more Jamerrill to keep sane lol

[@savedmefromthedepths]

Im up at almost midnight with my 19 month old. Binge watching your videos. He loves your videos when he is sick. I think he enjoys your calm voice. I know it helps keep me calm when he is running a 40°C fever and is really sick. So thank you for your videos

[@gcrew2488]

Glad your foot wasn't broken! Thank you for your videos. You seem to take things in stride and roll with the punches, no matter what kind of chaos or craziness happens. :) You are truly an encouragement to me!

[@SweetlyHome]

Oh Jamerill, you're encouragement is just a bright spot in my day. I found you about a year ago as I was looking for videos on THM and have watched every video before and after. So happy to know you will be uploading all week. So looking forward to it! And funny enough, I noticed your hat. :) I'm going to the Gaylord Opryland this summer and I cannot wait! My company is holding their annual convention there. Seeing your hat made me so excited! 😄

[@ptebo7219]

Great to see you back vloging, have miss you. Your new home is beautiful, so happy for you and your family....enjoy & blessing, this is the day the Lord has given us.

[@chenningpeng2981]

Wow - I loved this. So many great ideas for meals. You are so calming, Jamerrill. You encourage me to think about shopping and meals simply and to enjoy it more! I love your new kitchen, too!

[@sandlappersue01]

Thank you so much for sharing! Daniel has grown so much. Your new home is beautiful. Have a great week in the Lord!

[@kristinfitzgerald2910]

so glad to hear you didn't break your foot! always love homeschool videos... gets me inspired and motivated! we're about the start "kindergarten" over here and I'm excited and nervous all at once!

[@LifeWithMrsB]

Great haul! I seen your picture of your bacon! Looked fab! :)

[@AmbersFamilyof4]

You are one of my new favorite vloggers. Your personality is contagious!

[@anitakern4138]

I love you so much. You are so calm with your little people.

[@natalie5672]

Jamerrill, I would be so happy to see daily vlogs from you. You are such a blessing to me and you have such a calming spirit. I was battling some anxiety this morning and seeing your video helped me. :) we are thankful for any and all videos you do, even if you don't stick to your "plan"! :)))If you would consider it, I know a lot of moms including myself like seeing sped up cleaning videos or laundry videos etc; helps to motivate and let us know that we are not alone in our daily chores.

[@ThriftedLiving]

Do you have a spiralizer? Spiralized sweet potatoes are SOOOO good! So is spiralized zucchini! Just a suggestion! :)

[@officeadministrator9316]

So glad to see you back on youtube!!

[@nikkimasters8153]

I'm a young mumma (22) to a 3 year old little boy named Noah - I just wanted to let you know that I find so much inspiration in you from the way you hold yourself to raising your kids to your role as teacher mother and wife and your faith in The Lord you are truly very encouraging an I'm so grateful you have chosen to share your trials and tribulations as you walk the journey of life on earth. So aside from the praise i did wanna mention yes cook bacon in the oven!! Not only dose it free up the stove for beans eggs fried tomatoes and so on it actually taste so much better ! And for questions for Tuesday porch chats, I'd really enjoy a budget update how you budget per week/ how you know what bills come out of what pay and also how you save for each of your kids. Loads of love from your friend in Australia xx

[@mariansmartt]

So happy I found your channel. You just warm my heart every time I watch one of your videos! So happy this is working out so well for you! I am now a faithful Jamerrill fan!

[@mildredlane3717]

I love how u let the kids get full at meal time and will cut down on snacks.

[@jennyb6181]

Love watching you! I have a small family of just my 18 month old son and myself. Love seeing the deals you find !

[@SodbusterLiving]

YES! Bacon in the oven! I even do it where I crack an egg on top and pull it out and we have fried eggs and bacon all done in the oven. BOOM BABY! ;)

[@jessicarter7077]

I am soooooo blessed by ur vlogs..I'm a hs mama of 4 in nc.....one day we have got to meet! bless you dear and ur family!

[@lindzexposure9347]

Praying for your foot recovery! You're such a blessing.

[@Mary-pw1ki]

I almost could feel how that foot hurt when you landed on it. Ouch! Good on you for trusting God through it all. Thanks for sharing your life with us.

[@jeramiedean292]

I'm looking forward to more videos! Your schedule for the week sounds great!

[@GreenMama93]

Jammerill, you are such a blessing to us moms out in KZbin land! I would LOVE to see more videos from you, Lord willing. As for bacon in the oven, YES! Once I discovered this method I never went back 😄😄

[@lynnwilson2371]

Absolutely so thrilled to have you back on regular basis on KZbin. You have inspired me in so many ways… I am actually launching my own blog by the end of May. I am a mother of two boys and one is adopted with several special needs and My husband has epilepsy. My life is a little different than most so I felt that there's probably others out there that could benefit from some of the things that I live with daily. I also write for a blog for my job where I work at a Christian conference center on every day daily devotions for women and I will also be posting these on my own. Thank you again for all you do and thank you for sharing your wonderful children with us as well!

[@BlessedJess]

Bacon in the oven is the only way to go!!! So easy and perfect every time!

[@kscholz1231]

YES! Bacon in the oven is a lifesaver!!!! I used to be an ag teacher - each winter I would hold a HUGE community benefit breakfast where HUNDREDS would come - farmers, local factory workers, family & community members, etc and we'd make & serve the 3rd & 4th graders breakfast as well. :) Anyhow, one of my students mom would help me each year and she said hey, let's do the bacon in the oven - say what?!?!? With hundreds of lbs of bacon to cook I was all in, lol! Needless to say all you have to do is lay parchment paper on cookie sheets and bake away!!!! Just turn the oven to a high temp (400ish) and keep your eye on it - it comes out fabulous every time and no more grease pops!!! Hope this helps and works for you, just remember to keep your eye on it, it will turn fast once it gets goin! Ps: I am SO GLAD to see you back to videos, i LOVE your videos, I get so excited when I see a new one posted! 💗💗💗

[@EpicParkCast]

Hello! Really been praying for you during your move and for your neck. Kudos to you for enjoying your large family through it all! ~ Sarah

[@Charis6540]

[@Mrs.Winegarden]

[@MamaPeg1381]

[@kazbarthemagnificent2052]

[@faithful7485]

A video every day??? I love your videos so much. They are so encouraging and motivating. I'd love to request your banana bread in the bread machine for a cooking idea. I completely understand your busy daily life, but if your in need of a quick segment I'd love that. Lol. Hope your day shines!

[@chrislynnporta638]

New to your channel but loving it! Binge watching episodes now that my son is asleep lol

[@jennymartin4213]

Yay so excited for daily Vlogs!

[@godlyglitchgirl]

nice haul,hope everyone is feeling better soon

[@GothicaBeauty]

I broke my foot as a child & never knew I’d done it until about 20yrs after doing it. You can feel were the bones have thickened whilst healing & it doesn’t help that i have wide feet.

[@heidigodsoe8886]

exciting update....Look forward to the upcoming videos!

[@chanelrose1660]

Glad its not a fracture and that youre feeling better Jamerill

[@itsMeNicki]

I just adore you. As a homeschool momma of 8 I love watching someone I can relate to :)

[@michellehofer8418]

[@candacen136]

Thanks for sharing. I have been buying bags of beans and crock pot cooking them and freezing especially since summer is approaching and it is cheaper... Have a great Mother's Day!!

[@LexieH90]

I just love your videos! So glad I found you, you truly are encouraging!

[@queeniesnailcourtlong8743]

I just love your channel! I have just bought the Healthy Mama books and started reading everything. They keep saying in the book that it will get easier. I am excited to start losing weight. I have Fibromyalgia and I am hoping by losing some weight it can help me.

[@heatherkoczan8722]

I always bake my bacon in the oven. I just lay out on a cookie sheet and bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes. Time may vary based on thickness of bacon or how crispy you want it. :)

[@denisemarinas4082]

I love your grocery hauls! 💘 and you're a great mom to your 7 kids! Godbless ya'll

[@melissan9199]

Baby D. sounds soooo cute talking in the background! YOu are looking good mama in the hat. Thanks for sharing your menu plan and haul with us...hope everyone is feeling 100% better and your foot is also...have a great week! XO

[@OneBookMore]

I have been cooking my bacon in the oven for several years now - it is so much easier and less messy, too! I line a baking sheet with foil, then put a cooling rack on top. I heat the oven to 350 degrees, lay the bacon on top of the rack, and just let it go. I start at 25 minutes and give it a check - I really just keep an eye on it until it's done. Sometimes I will flip the bacon once if it's particularly thick, but otherwise you don't even need to do that! If I am doing multiple baking sheets, I will make sure to move them around once or twice during the cooking process so that everything gets equal heat. I let the baking sheets cool off completely and the grease hardens up - then you just fold up the foil and toss it. So easy!

[@paigedewart]

I only cook one lb of bacon at a time, but I always bake it. It's so much easier! Takes about half an hour on 350 degrees to get it extra crisp like my family likes. I just lay it out on cookie sheets and don't over lap to help it cook evenly and crisp. I would definitely recommend it!

[@debora3377]

Praying for you, Little Momma. Hope you are feeing better.

[@yasmine6761]

Always excited when I see a new video from you!!

[@DanielleDignin]

It's just me and my daughter and I bake our bacon in the oven too....I have had it stick to the pan if the bacon is thin but it is so much easier to cook in the oven than on the stove... I usually bake it at 350 for 6 minutes, then check and flip, then 6 minutes and check, then if it needs more time I check it every minute or so, that way it doesn't burn. it's way less mess than having it splatter on the stove and I can cook more at one time.

[@whitneymichelle8300]

bake it! put it on a cookie sheet, bake it till it looks pretty done and *I* broil it for just a few seconds to make it good and crispy! This has been a lifesaver for me numerous times.

[@dmack144]

I also raised seven children and always baked my bacon. For that three pound pkg, you'll need to spread it out on a couple of large baking sheets lined with parchment. Bake at 375-400 until it reaches the doneness you prefer. Probably 20 minutes or so. Give it a stir with a pair of tong every so often. I never worried about it all laying nice and flat on the sheets, and mine is usually curled up. Flat bacon is for families with one or two kids. lol

[@petagayejolly7577]

Love all the videos coming in. Would love some updates on how homeschool is going. Do you have a homeschool room in the new house? And what curriculum do you recommend.

[@christinegoyette3337]

Looking forward to the new video schedule. Also love your spiritual encouragement videos for us Moms too. Thanks as always!

[@ellaanne4071]

You have the best videos you inspire me to be more organized. I don't know how you do it, with 7 kids! I have 1 boy who is 3 and one in the oven I can't even handle it!

[@cupcakeprincesskiss]

Great video! I do the same thing with cooking a lot of a couple meals a week and then we have leftovers or I make the leftovers into something new. It saves so much time and sanity! :)

[@chanelrose1660]

I really want to see the living room and the upstairs of your house!!

[@brittanymcguff]

We always bake bacon in the oven. I do a cookie sheet filled at 350 degrees for 10 to 13 minutes. Comes out perfect everytime!

[@ConsiderMeCoffeed]

Yay! I hope your new schedule works! Your such an encourager and I love your videos.

[@terry7521]

Can't wait for more videos! Such an inspiration! 💛💛💛

[@G2G2024]

Love your videos, especially your homeschooling info ones :)

[@Lugosifly]

Bacon in the oven is wonderful. With such a big family, I'm not sure how much you intend to cook at one time, but if you have more than one rack to put in your oven, you can definitely bake two trays at once. That's how all of the big restaurants cook their massive amounts. My family learned it from a friend who worked in them his whole life, and now we never make it any other way. Much less messy, you can do other things while it's baking, it's great. I do recommend lining your pans with tin foil, though. Just because grease isn't splattering anywhere doesn't mean you aren't going to end up with a lot of it! Also, baked omelettes are great for feeding lots of people at once. My family reserved them for leftover day, and you just take any leftover vegetables and/or meats you have, dice them up, throw them into a big baking dish, cover it all with eggs (and cheese, if you want, though in my family cheese was a personal preference, so we always left it as an optional topping), and they are wonderful. You can top them with salsa, sour cream, ketchup if the kids are into that, and it's a big breakfast that doesn't take a whole lot of effort. Or lunch. Or dinner. >.>

[@faylinameir]

300 (or 350 if you're impatient) in the oven for 20 minutes then flip and 20 more minutes for crispy bacon. If you plan to reheat in the pan, undercook it by about 5 minutes. You can freeze it and it works great. I DON'T recommend putting it on papertowels because that excess fat helps it reheat good in the pan or even the microwave.

[@daniellebudick9485]

Yeahhhh to daily videos!! I miss you when you aren't able to vlog (but understand). PTL, to no broken foot! Baby Daniel is soooo cute and getting so big!!

[@SmallTownStitches]

Love your videos! I love your large family. I have 2 kids and honestly don't know if it will ever happen. It's in Gods hands I guess. I would love to be a stay at home mom and $ wise it's not possible. I am schedule to start nursing school in the fall. I love the positivity you bring to KZbin. Something this world needs more of !

[@andriastafford812]

hey just a heads up to super easy to cook the bacon in the oven I cook it at 400 for about 25-35 mins depends if it's thick cut and also how done you like it. You just basicly get a cookie sheet and lay foil down and lay in down and cook I use a grated pan

[@Homeschooltogo]

Bacon in the oven is the way to go!! We line glass pans and bake it on 350 until it's crispy. Less mess and you still get crisp bacon. YUM!

[@lone6718]

Worked in food service for almost 20 years. Bacon in the oven is key for success. Bulk baking the bacon is great for sandwiches, but also great for saving the fat for later or using right away on roasting potatoes. 😋

[@kayla_renee123]

We cook bacon on a cookie sheet at 350° for 20 to 25 minutes I get thick bacon so thin may need to be less time but it comes out crispy we love it. We love bacon here.

[@marisaanderson4475]

I line the cookie sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup. Sometimes I put it on a rack so it drains the fat as it cooks.

[@rfamily2112]

Yes the oven !!! We have a small family but we love blt and other bacon I always do it in the oven it is quick and super crunchy

[@TheCJtheCregg]

My family has always cooked bacon in the oven and it works really well. We do it on the grill (broil) setting and still do multiple pans - you just have to swap the pans around on the shelves a few times and flip the bacon over once or twice. Very easy and a lot more of the grease drains into the groves on the cookie sheets, so you're not eating quite as much fat! We also used to make it this way in big commercial ovens at a ski club I belonged to years ago, and that was for 30-40 people at once! Definitely the way to cook bacon for a crowd!

[@StandingStill]

We do bacon in the oven spread them in a single layer on a foil lined cookie tin and broil them for about 10 - 15 minutes. Works great and you can cook about 12 - 15 pieces at a time.

[@mickeymuttbutt]

I love cooking bacon in the oven. I cook it on 350 for about 18-22 minutes depending on how thick it is. Also put the bacon in first then start to preheat your oven. Helps to cook it evenly.

[@Peggyanns]

When I cook bacon in the oven I put the bacon on a large cookie sheet. I also put a cookie sheet on top of the bacon. It stays flat that way and looks nice for Christmas morning breakfast.

[@pandora4078]

Hi..I just found ur channel a few days ago but ive binge watched over half of your videos..lol I loooove that ur a Christian and that you talk about it openly on your channel. Your video on scriptures for moms was such a blessing to me. Thank you for that...!! I actually want to comment on doing bacon in the oven..Ive got 6 people in my family and when we do BLT's its a lifesaver! You dont have to stand over the hot pan babysitting every piece of bacon. Each piece lies flat and its just so much easier. I recommend trying it at least once. :o)

[@waylonshumaker6564]

I always cook bacon in the oven now. I line cookie sheets with foil and just put the bacon on and bake at 400 for about 14 mins to 16ish mins. I just keep an eye on it. Then clean up is so great, just throw away the foil. Hope that helps!

[@Julsinmaine101]

God bless you! You seem very organized..patience of Kobe..how long did it take for you to get this way?

[@farrahafm3042]

LOL I feel like we live the same life. My life is also full of antics.

[@ladymorawing1379]

I cooked bacon butties for 150 students at results day last August. I used the oven and baking trays and got perfect bacon that I could keep warm until serving. Remember the foil on the baking trays first!

[@CupcakeCorrine]

I look forward to seeing more of you! 😀

[@katieramsey1359]

I love your videos so I'm excited for any you are able to get out!!!

[@carloyngedenberg7377]

We raise our own pigs and I do my bacon in the oven. The best way I have found is to line cookie sheets with tin foil (for easy clean up), then set cooling racks on them and place bacon on racks.........400 degree oven for 20 minutes (keep cooking until they are as crispy that you like). Throw cooling racks in dishwasher....I love this method :)

[@rhoadestraveled]

Yay for daily vlogs!

[@karianne-haga]

My husband and I absolutely love bacon in the oven! We do it at 400 degrees and lay down foil on a cookie sheet for easy clean up! :)

[@rmstonge]

For the bacon, lay them flat on cookie sheets (with lips/sides), a little overlap is fine on the slices. Put them into a very hot oven (like 400-425) for about 20 minutes. Drain half way through for crispier bacon. If you have a baking rack that fits inside your cookie sheet, you can drain the bacon while it cooks by putting the bacon on the baking rack. The fat will drain through the rack and into the cookie sheet.

[@emilydsc]

I love making bacon in the oven! Such an easy clean up! I line baking sheets with tin foil, and place bacon right down on the foil. Place it in a cold oven, then turn oven on to 400, and bake for 23-25 min :) Daniel is getting so big, what a cutie!! Loving your lip color too!

[@sarahsparks3818]

I love your new kitchen.

[@equallyyoked1]

Hi!My husband and I have 4 kiddos and always bake bacon in the oven. We make 2lbs on 375 for about 15-18 min depending on how crispy you want it. I would just check it to see. Nice haul on groceries!

[@equallyyoked1]

+Rep Jesus oh, and we always line the baking dish (cookie sheet) with aluminum foil.

[@kalenastinson3390]

I do it in a big glass casserole dish and use another to elevate one side so the grease pools to the side away from the bacon lol, comes out perfect every time

[@kalenastinson3390]

+Kalena Stinson you could also do them in baking sheets and ball up some aluminum foil to elevate one end to drain the grease to the side! Cooks tons for very little effort

[@lizlane6490]

YAY! So happy to hear that you are going to try to vlog more! :) You are such an encouragement and I agree with you that it seems that the Lord's grace & blessing is on you during this season for this--because you have a great ministry of encouragement to mamas! And the world needs more of that! :) And I think part of the beauty of your encouragement is that you share things like getting noodles stuck in your drain pipe! I do cook bacon in the oven sometimes. I ususally use my broiler pan--I just don't like cleaning it afterward! But I guess cleaning up after bacon is the name of the game! Blessings on you! Glad your foot is better! I had a great Sharp Shopper haul this week, too! (Lancaster Co. PA)--woo hoo! I even took a photo and sent it to my sis in NC because I was so excited!

[@shemom4]

I only cook bacon in the oven. I lay the pieces on a baking sheet and bake at 350 for about 20 to 30 minutes, turning once. The mess is contained in the pan. I usually do 2 pounds at a time.

[@kristenkerr7126]

Yes bacon in the oven works out great! Just place it in a shallow cookiesheet. If you like it less greasy set your cookie cooling racks in the cookie sheet and put the bacon on top of that.
