Hey friends. We do the same kind of prepping due to the rising costs of food. Love your videos. Keep sharing. God Bless and God help and bless AMERICA. People that love and appreciate their freedom in this Country of the USA should be praying hard for the future of their off springs. The crime rate is also rising in USA SCARY

Hey y'all Good Tuesday morning 🌻 I love the idea of the can potatoes 🥔. Baked beans from Walmart are good just like they are. Prepping for this meal is super easy, and I just enjoy youins both in the kitchen. 😊 Thank you for the tip. God bless you both 😇

I've never bought canned potatoes but I always thought they were already cooked! I can't eat rabbits, too cute.I guess as Marie said if I were starving to death maybe. lol God Bless. 🙏 p.s. Love the matching outfits!

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much Deb, the potatoes are already cooked but they are not real soft unless you cook them some more.

[@karensweet6530]

I love Brunswick Stew! I have my Great Great Grandmaws Recipe! It's the Best Stew you ever tasted and Nothing comes out of a can! All Fresh Smoked Meats and Garden Fresh Veggies! I make a Huge Pot of it and then I Can and Freeze it! I make it once a year! It takes alot of work but it's worth every second of it! It's our Family Recipe that's passed down! My 11 Great Grandbabies will get it when they're adults! Thank you Calvin n Marie! God Bless. 🙏🙏❤❤🔥🔥🇺🇸🇺🇸

Sounds great, thanks very much Karen

Glad you enjoyed it

[@clarissam4746]

Great videos! I am enjoying them all you both are doing a fantastic job! I am catching in up on all four years. I really appreciate the prepping videos in particular because I would really love to start a prep pantry but would not know how to were to start and how to make filling meals with items stored so thank you both for putting your time into the prepper meal series.

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@lynnetaylor6720]

I remember my mom would coat the canned potatoes in flour,salt, and pepper and lightly brown in a fry pan with a little bacon grease.

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Great idea, thanks very much

[@lynnetaylor6720]

I have 2 of those P38 can openers. The best ones yet. One I have my stepdad had when he served in the Korean war stationed in Germany. Over 72 years old and still going strong.

I'm a prepper too but my husband calls me a food hoarder. For years he bugged me about having extra food in the house but when covid hit and everything shut down he was the first one to thank me for my prepping LOL

That is fantastic. We were the same way.

[@sheryladams1964]

Everything looked so good. I didn't know what Brunswick stew was. We live on the Gulf Coast. Have to watch for hurricanes. We were without electric for 11 days... We have a gas stove so we could still cook and heat water. Most homes are all electric. The prepped pantry is wonderful to help feed family. Thank you for your tips. God bless you both.

Hi Marie and Calvin I've got one of the military can openers. Nothing worse than not being able to open a can. We have 80 degrees here in NE Arkansas. And the mosquitoes are out and chasing us. My son works at a Dollar General. A lady and her daughter had 2 shopping carts full. She said it is for her pantry. I am always so happy to see people thinking ahead. Now I know what to do with that can of potatoes. Thank you for the video. Anna.

[@SBooher1]

I remember those can openers Calvin was talking about. Little silver thing you could fit in your palm. I used one for years. Just clamp and turn. I love Brunswick stew but would rather have Marie's homemade than Castleberry's canned. Although, for hotdog chili, Castlebury's is the best!! Even in a hurry I'd have to add onions to the beans. I want onions with everything.

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Hey Calvin and Marie, I lived down East in Goldsboro, NC in the early 1980's. Brunswick stew is very popular there. I live near Charlotte,NC now. The way I was taught to make the stew was, You added B-B-Q chopped pork, chicken, beef, corn, Lima beans, potatoes, tomatoes, Texas Pete, ketchup. It is sooo good! I haven't made it in years. I need to do a pot of this soon. Hope Y'all have a blessed week with love and blessings.❤️❤️❤️

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much Susan. That sounds about how Marie makes hers.

[@harrietlivengood6793]

Good afternoon Calvin and Marie. I’ve never eaten Brunswick stew. I just make the old fashioned beef stew with carrots, onions and potatoes.That potato salad and cornbread looks delicious. God bless you both.

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much Harriet

[@thomastommy1192]

Awesome great video and choice of foods. I love potato salad and cole slaw. But I cook them maybe twice a year. In a million years I never would thought of using canned potatoes. I for sure will try this very soon along with the Brunswick Stew. I buy the Caslebury beanless chili for hot dogs but I never knew they made the stew until I saw it on your last video. Many thumbs up Stay well and safe. Btw, I love cornbread also.

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much

Hi Can’t wait to make the potato salad. Have never had the Brunswick stew. Might have to get it. Calvin the cornbread made me hungry. I like cornbread and spring onions.

[@gretaoverstreet8572]

I make quick stew with canned bbq pork, canned bbq chicken, canned bbq beef, canned diced potatoes, canned butter beans, canned corn, and ketchup. When our power is out, we cook under the carport on the grill or propane hot plate because our appliances are electric. We also keep several manual can openers because they seem to tear up quickly. Cans of stew are good over light bread and Spam is delicious floured and fried to eat between light bread, but the canned food( especially pork and beans and beanie weenies) are good straight from the can.

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Yes, to all that you do. We appreciate you watching our videos.

Great meal! Marie, have you done a video on German potato salad? I think my hubby would really like that. Would love to see you make your Brunswick Stew, too! I buy it every year from a local high school band that makes it to raise funds. I get several quarts to freeze. It's delicious!

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much Sharon. We haven't done a German potato salad yet.

[@debbieskitchen2]

Good idea. I never thought to make potato salad with the canned potatoes. Now when I want potato salad I know how to make it from canned. My Grandpa made the best Brunswick stew. He put chicken in his but no beans. If I had a big pantry I would stock up like you do too.

I see that you're trying to save your viewers some $$ with convenience in mind but not at the expense of taste. I would like to join you in this meal, but Brunswick stew just isn't available in the stores around here so I will have to listen in.

calvin why did you boil those potatoes that were in a can? They were already cooked sir?

In an emergency you wouldn't have to cook them but for us on this meal I like to cook them a little longer so that they are softer. Can potatoes tend to be hard straight out of the can .
