Good food in the farmhouse | Cook with me 

Yes! I use lard and/or butter for literally everything, I literally weigh the least I’ve ever weighed without being on a “diet”, and feel the best I’ve ever felt. Amazing!

I was raised that you stay away from “manufactured foods” so being raised on a farm we utilized the whole animal. Lard, tallow, butter…these were healthy fats. None of my family had heart issues from eating this way. I am 100% with you on “real” fats 😊

You talk about your sisters farm a lot and how you source a lot of your meats and such from her. Would you ever consider making a video touring her farm and interviewing her about raising animals etc. ? P.S. my mouth is watering looking at that cheesy bread!!!

Such a credit to you to raise children who not only want to eat real food, but even want to help MAKE it… good job 👏

I loved seeing your daughter in the kitchen cooking with you. Just a caution for you-I noticed her leaning up to get spices above the stove. I am a burn nurse and we see so many burns from women reaching up to get things and catching their clothes on fire. I don’t want your family getting hurt

I can remember my Grandmother making pies and always using lard in her pie crust, they were so delicious and flaky. PS: I’m 70 so that was a long time ago! 😊

You probably already do this, but I'm in love with this trick I just found - parboiling potatoes before frying. AMAZING! Crunchy crispy on the outside and fluffy soft on the inside

I don't know why people can't understand that natural is always healthier. Things God made were meant to nourish or bodies. Everything looks fantastic!

110% agree with you about lard Lisa ! Love animal fats ,no bad seed oils in my house!

Ribs are one of my kids favourite pork cuts! And yep, lard all the way :)

You can also keep that pot roast on the stove all day on low, rather than in the oven. Either way.

Very well said about the lard. Seed oils/vegetable oils are so toxic and not many people realise. Loving your channel!

Great video! Saw someone else's comment about inviting your sister to a podcast because she is a farmer and butcher, so raises organic meat to sell; sounds like a really cool thing to check out, would help support her business, too, and help her have a bigger market? Pretty cool idea

Carrots, sweet potatoes red onions. Sauté on a pan with avocado oil, rosemary and little mapple syrup!! Salt, pepper! Delicious!

Can you post your recipe/directions for your pot roast on your blog? I love your roast but don’t make it often enough to make without watching your video before each time. Your recipes on your blog are easier to find that searching for videos. Thank you for ALL you do! Such an inspiration!!

we used to cook on lard in my childhood, and then as everyone did, we switched to oil. first sunflower oil, then olive oil. some years back, I bought a thub of lard, just to mix it up a bit. ... never thought of going back

Everything looks so delicious! A little tip for you..if you will flour the roast before you brown it, it will make its own gravy as it cooks in its juices throughout the day. :)

Many years ago I learned that lard wasn’t as bad as was assumed. But now, for several years I’ve been vegan for many reasons including how it breaks my heart to see the explodes and slaughter of any animal. So lard is not an option. I try to cook with as little oil as possible when I can because no matter how you look at it; oils and lard aren’t getting a halo 😇 as the healthiest ingredient added to food. So all those different fats being added to foods after a while is why the United States has a huge problem with obesity and overweight issues which lead to other health problems. My daughter also loves cooking and baking from scratch, but with organic vegan and natural foods. But no matter our view on cooking, It is great that the next generation is learning about healthy eating and cooking from scratch. 😃👍 Thanks for sharing.

Ok recipe idea , use the sourdough starter and leftover buttermilk salad dressing to make....biscuits? Something else? I have a lot of buttermilk dressing to use up!

Be careful out there in the weather you are facing . Stay safe

I loved johanna's Brown blouse

Ribs are actually really good on the instant pot and then finish under the broiler with sauce.

All of that food looks amazing!! What a blessing!

Looks so fabulous!😋

Everything looks so delicious Lisa! Thank you for sharing!

You outdid yourself with this one! Every single meal looked amazing, and the photographs were beautifully done!

Everything looks so delicious 🙏I love your videos

These all look so tasty!!

That is good old comfort farm food ❤. I love how effortless you make cooking look .

I am so looking forward to seeing these updated kitchen cabinets of yours!!!

Love all of these meals! Yes, they really are comfort foods in the winter months!

Everything looks so delicious! Thanks for sharing all the meals Lisa! And for your sour dough recipes!! I love them!

Good morning 🙏😊 I absolutely love to watch you cook! Always such good ideas and advice. Thank you for great information Have a blessings day 🙏

lovely! thank you !!!

Looks delish

Ty Lisa. This was great.

What an amazing meal; looks delicious and will be making it

Ok, my mouth is watering following this video 🤤 everything looks so good! Thanks for sharing for the inspiration 😊

All of these recipes look SO GOOD! I need to go shopping now.

my mouth is watering that roast looked so delicious

Fab yummy southern comfort food! Shout out to your precious, talented mini me.

love the idea of adding yolks to the mac n cheese. always looking for that protein boost!

The roast, mashed potatoes, carrots and gravy made my mouth water!!!!

hey girl- You have done it again😉 yummy food. Love the video. i enjoy watching the process. Y'all have a great weekend🥰

Love watching you cook!

Thank you for the beautiful meals and new recipes! You did a great job. 💕

I could smell the roast cooking from here 😊 My mom made “a big dinner” on Sundays for our very large family AND any family that stops in to visit.

The easiest ribs you’ll ever make. Put the ribs with spices in your roaster or slow cooker whatever they’ll fit in and cook until their fork tender then take them out put them in a pan cover them with barbecue sauce and put them in the oven under the broiler and or in a hot oven until they get bubbly and crispy on the edges. Nothing to it

I want to live at your house! That bread,omg…the soup looks divine and I would love to dine on everything you make without a doubt! Great video!

These all look sooo delicious Lisa. And kudos to Johanna 👏🏻👍🏻😊. 🧄🥔🥩🥘

That pullapart bread looks amazing!!!! I gotta try it!

You are a real good Cook. And very blessed with the recources AS you mentioned. GOD Bless your Family ✨🏡✨

The pull apart bead looks awesome!

Everything looks absolutely delicious 🤗💕

That is such a great southern meal! Comfort food.... we also love cubed steak too.

Hi beautiful Lisa always happy to see you. You look so pretty. Your girls are so big. Blessing to all

Gorgeous vlog as usual 🌱

Good morning beautiful. Wow you simply amaze me with everything you create. That soup looks so good and definitely adding the sourdough pull apart bread to my to do list. You make sourdough stuff seems so easy. I'm still in the learning phase. Wish there was smell..a..vision button. Mmmmmmm I'm salivating. Thanks for sharing this with us beautiful.

My kind of food! 😋

Yum.

The fried chicken dinner looks delicious! my daughter would want to eat that too :) I've been making more and more soups as well. My daughter simply love soup and it's so easy with my slow cooker. I recently saw a pulled pork soup recipe somewhere. We usually eat pulled pork or chicken with sandwiches, but will try it with potatoes as well sometime. Better option for winter then bread which I find more of a summer meal somehow.

I just love your sink and stove.

Every meal looked absolutely delicious!! Sadly, I would go back for seconds each time! Maybe thirds😊

We render our own lard and tallow....the best for cooking!

Always such dilishous looking food, i love how you feed your children real food, such a good mama

I haven't seen lard in years I thought they took it off the market. This food looks really good.

Great job

That actually is gravy. Looks lovely

I love your sink I like old fashion items! Plus your video so down to earth.

Hi Lisa! I'm new to your channel. Definitely loving all your content! So inspiring! And, just WOW! Your stove is phenomenal!

HAPPY FRIDAY Lisa, family, and all the fur babies. LOVE the way you cook. I told you previously I am the youngest of 10; 5 boys and 5 girls. I am 61 yrs old now(TO GOD THE GLORY). My mother had certain staples she used. One was Cheer laundry detergent, Lard, and just plain old homemade foods THAT were just delish. I do have to ask Lisa, are we having another blessing? SHARED TO THE BURGH

Yes, you cook the food that I grew up eating and it is Wonderful. It's the way my parents ate. Delicious flavorful food. None of this tasteless zero calorie food that some people call healthy. And by the way, I am not the least bit overweight either. I use butter, lard, whole milk and cream as well. This life is meant to enjoy. Why not eat the foods we love. I mean, you make your own cheese, bread, yogurt, and you ferment food. It seems that everything you use is organic. I think your family is lucky to get to enjoy all the amazing things you cook. Well done you.

Chicken fried chicken is a staple here in Texas! Yours looks delicious!

Lard is excellent! Especially when it’s home made!

If you wrapped your ribs in foil and added a couple ice cubes, it would fall off the bone. You can brown it in YNt oven too before or after if you like it browned.

Chicken fried chicken is probably my favorite meal. Haven’t had that creamy chicken soup though, I’ll have to try it.

Winter roasts are my favorite foods of all times. I'm a meat and potato kind of gal. Your house must smell delicious all the time.

Oooh sundried tomato, basil and mozzarella stuffed bread should be delicious too!

Looks DELICIOUS!!!!!

Lisa, as you where talking about pork: two things. A pork loin cooked in your sauerkraut in crock pot or dutch oven low and slow, is to die for delish. The pork can be shredded when done. It is wonderful with applesauce. I like a berry applesauce even more. Mashed potato on the side. The pork must be cooked in the sauerkraut for this meal.

My doctor actually recommended lard over many modern seed oils. Her words were “the dose makes the poison” but we are learning that over consumption of fried food are not good for many people; but the overuse of seed oils is becoming a concern. Between frying, dressings, condiments and baked goods the ‘old ways’ are starting to give us some insight into health, movement and modern agriculture”.

Thumbs up to the lard Lisa.

You can also use a pork loin roast to make a tomato ragu with carrots, onions, celery, herbs, and some tomatoes and red wine, bake it low and slow in a dutch oven then serve with pasta and it is DELICIOUS!

I’m coming over to eat. This meal looks so delicious. I think I could eat soup everyday. Thank you for sharing. Cheryl

So that chicken schnitzel ( the breaded one ) is actually pretty good I make it like every month at least 2 times. but I do it in the oven, brushing them with my olive oil, Sweet Paprika little cumin and dry oregano and just baking them in a cookie sheet 12 - 15 minutes turning them around and 10 minutes later they are done. It is delicious no matter how you cook them. 😊

The fried chicken cutlets freeze beautifully !!! They make an easy chicken Parm or chicken sandwich for the future. I try to make extra whenever I fry chicken like this because it is such a long and messy process!

Your meals make me so hungry. I want some! I want a plateful ! Have you ever thought about marketing your foods in food stores ? Your breads, soups look great.

Making pulled pork sandwiches tomorrow! Don’t have a healthy bbq sauce but I’m picking my battles 😂 at least I’m making some SD rolls for the buns! So excited!!!

Hi Lisa- great recipes- I am making chicken fried chicken this weekend for sure!

Both my mother and grandmother would use proper lard when both my dad and grandfather would butcher a pig. They would use the lard frying chicken, making pastry, and making biscuits. My mom would also use a little when cooking green vegetables, especially string beans. So good! As usual Lisa, your recipes looked delicious! Wholeheartedly agree, garlic butter is soooo good!

I love watching you! You are such an inspiration, thank you! Have you tried starter in your soups and gravy? I recently used some in my creamy potato soup and loved the flavor it gave. My family loved it more than the regular flour and butter roux.

Thankyou so much Lisa I’m definitely going to try the chicken soup and tear and share loaf it looks delicious. You are a fabulous mama and homemaker 🙏

When we get a half I put the less liked cuts in a special place and start using them first. The heart gets thawed right away.

Looks great

Your cooking pots are beautiful. Where did you get them from? Thank you so much for sharing and making your videos, I've learned a lot!

I make my roast gravy this way but we pinch up bread and pour it over that. It would be delicious over your sourdough bread.

Chicken fried chicken is a southern staple. With white gravy.

Delicious

Your bread looks delicious.

Ok Lisa this just makes me want to go cook everything that you just made! How delicious and nourishing! I have a son who has a dairy allergy so sadly he misses out on butter but everything looks so so delicious. I might have to stop at the store later and get the ingredients
