I am so happy I came across your channel today and have watched several videos so far. Not certain what it is, but I needed your warmth, talents, creativity and graciousness in my life. After losing my dear husband two years ago, I have just been floundering so to speak. And being 75, I cannot do things like I used to. I thoroughly enjoyed watching your family do amazing things. Heck I may even try making homemade bread again and grilling a delicious steak. Blessings to you and yours. ❤

That’s why I love coming back to your channel often.

My husband and I live on a little acreage in South Dakota and have slowly been making it come alive with life- vegetable gardens, perennial gardens, tree plantings, chickens, and of course our 4 sons! You guys inspire me and I am encouraged by the perspective you continually share- that this way of life isn’t easy, yet it is full and good and so wonderful to experience and share with those around us. ❤ Ps. I have that artichoke wine stopper too and it made me smile to see you have it too.

We finally added on to our back porch & doubled our concrete back patio so we could do more cooking outsie. Now, to move the chickens farther away so we don't have the flys so bad around the food. But we have horses in the pasture on the north and pigs at the neighbor to the south, so maybe we will just have drinks outsde around the fire pit. Ha!

Ok here's the salt debate....does seasoning your meat prior to cooking it, draw out the moisture of the meat?
@theelliotthomestead4 ай бұрын
For a short period of time, no. If left with the salt for way too long, then yes, the meat will eventually become dried out. But salting for a bit (think 30-45 minutes) before cooking helps the salt permeate the meat and flavor it deeply. Personal opinion, but it works well for us.
