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. Your cooking is solid. I could do some basic meals to keep us fed. ❤

[@saran3214]

I learn a lot from watching these videos. I never knew the shovel was for getting the coals, I always used it for getting the ash out. And the masher thingy I have, but use for crushing pills. I did not think to use it for mashing potatoes, I use the wavy wire masher and wind up with lumps, not anymore after watching Justine.

It's a big Thanksgiving Day Feast. So I'm glad that Ron's back to give her a hand. I saw how very very tired Justine is with all this Thanksgiving Feast cooking she's doing on her own. I'm just glad to see Ron back so he could help her finish cooking their big Thanksgiving Day Feast together as a couple.

[@LizzyTwifehomemaker]

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

[@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.

[@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.

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.

[@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.

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!

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 😊

Don’t forget chopping wood! Especially with winter coming soon

stocking the larder for the winter ahead as well she needs to do that or they will starve, canning, pickling, whatever what will they eat

Justine you gave away your "condition" when you stood at the fire 🔥 rubbing your tummy. I had guessed this when you were just a fair maid. What would Lafayette say? What would Lucy say 🤣🤣🤣

[@carlacosta56]

I would like to see you guys and visitors eating what you cook and clean up the mess after you make some recipe 😉

Happy thanksgiving. Unfortunately it’s not happy for me. Please pray for me I’m still struggling after losing my job for declining the vaccine. I’m a single mother with two autistic children. My husband passed away three years ago around this time. I’m so ashamed of my situation. It is only because of the kindness of strangers me and my sons still have a home and food. Im still suffering from depression. And stressed because of all the debit I’m in. I’m so behind on rent that i’m facing eviction next month. Please keep me in your prayers. I have faith God will provide!

Watching the two of you together makes me thankful for my husband, my son and my home. How thoughtful of you to invite your landlord to share your abundant meal. Everything looks tasty! Happy Thanksgiving to my Early American friends.

[@mrs.g.9816]

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!

[@dianehoote8829]

New to your channel and I love it so relaxing love watching you cook in that Era! Beautiful cabin happy thanksgiving 🦃🍁🍽

[@tobiastogerin3598]

As a trained Chef in Germany I saw this video with delight ! Times have changed meanwhile, but to cook these dishes today, we would do it the same way - just with a modern way of heating.

[@alexandersupertramp151]

Happy Thanksgiving, Ron and Justine! That was a feast for us viewers too and we're very grateful! Thank you! :)

[@chelleymarie2312]

Beautiful meal,Justine! Looks absolutely delectable! Happy Thanksgiving to ALL the members of “ Early American!”

[@TappersTay]

You are living my whole dream, I've always wanted to have my own little cabin in the woods with a loved one once I'm a proper age. I love yalls channels! The ASMR is so pleasant and relaxing. The atmosphere is so cozy and very unique. I barley see any KZbin channels or videos like this and the food looks so so delicious! Keep up the amazing work ♡

[@justjenna6062]

I am so excited for this video , I love your videos, the sounds are so satisfying and the food you make looks so professionally done, I am a history nerd so I am into this stuff.

[@Kim-ri1hg]

I thought I had it hard on Thanksgiving Day! I was dead on my feet from cooking and I didn’t have it nearly as hard as you did Justine!! You did an amazing job at cooking Thanksgiving dinner over the hearth. ❤️

Will this be at 5 eastern standard time? I live in Maryland that is why I am asking. I was watching a video from the Townsends yesterday. Left a comment saying I would enjoy a joint video with you and them. Happy Blessed Thanksgiving everyone. This year our 43rd anniversary falls on Thanksgiving this year.

[@EarlyAmerican]

Hi Mabel! We use central standard time here so for you it would be 3 PM east central time. Thank you for doing that maybe if enough of us poke Townsends with a big stick it'll help them to notice us lol.

[@EarlyAmerican]

Also happy 43rd anniversary I wish you many more!

[@janicem9225]

@@EarlyAmerican I think it would actually be 5 Eastern Standard time there, because they're an hour ahead of us, here. I have family and friends that live in Virginia, and West Virginia, and when it's 4 here, it's 5 there.

[@janicem9225]

It will be 4 pm here Central Standard time, so it will be 5 pm there, because you're an hour ahead of us, there.

[@countrystyle5076]

@@EarlyAmerican yes. I know Ron's dream....

[@blw6468]

Amazing to see how every day task's were done.

[@GrannyGooseOnYouTube]

Oh I loved this! Your French neighbor is a gem....glad he came by to enjoy your wonderful meal!

[@bnghjtyu767]

The sound in your video is so rich through its simplicity it's very satisfying unfortunately there's no smell.
