Nothing better than fixing food you grew yourself or hunted and preserved your self. Y’all are eating like kings!

I have only grown tomatoes and peppers this year but they have done beautifully. If my Daughter was still with us she would be begging me to make her some fried green tomatoes. She loved them so much. Everything looked delicious and I am glad Matt got his fried green tomatoes.

I agree about your feast! I do like fried green tomatoes! And always cornbread! We don’t have a hunter in the family. I’ve not had a lot of Venison. When I got as growing up we had a neighbor that did have Venison. But she always cooked it rare. I don’t like rare meat.

What a wonderful supper, i felt like i was right there helping. I don’t know all that fancy cooking but know this type of just good old home cooking, as Matt says, I am fixing to hurt myself. Everything looked so good. I think we really eat our food with our eyes first then dive into the goodness. Tipper, thank you for inviting us to supper and an evening of family and wonderful food. God bless

"I'm fixin' to hurt myself"...Hahah!! "Fixin' to..." When I was a little girl, a family moved in across the street and they were from Ohio (I'm in TN). When the lady asked me how old I was, I replied, "I'm fixin' to be nine!" She had never heard anyone talk like that! She laughed about that for years. I had no idea that other people might find those words strange. What a delicious supper!

@Lwof1025 Год назад

Yum! I love friend green "tamaytas" and these videos! I am 3 generations from TN where my Maternal ancestors come from. Hearing your accent, some of the words, even the way you cook, reminds me of my Grandma. We called her Parents Mammo and Pappo, and Pappo was from TN. Seeing your videos really reminds me of my roots. Thanks for sharing everything.

@ouvickie Год назад

I love listening to you and Matt❣️ It feels like listening to my family. We live in central, rural Oklahoma, but we sound a lot alike, when it comes to a southern accent. My parents, both, grew up in rural areas, so many of your words and phrases are familiar to me. My granny used the word Cattywampus all the time. 😅 My maternal grandmother lived in SE rural Oklahoma and raised gardens and canned everything. So, when you talk, garden, can etc. it feels like I’m visiting with family.💞 Thank you so much for sharing your lives with us. It feels like home.🥰

@elizabethhamilton8388 Год назад

That sure is a yummy looking supper! My daughter is the fried green tomato eater in our family. She absolutely loves them. Matt is so funny after he makes his plate and says that he’s fixing to hurt his self. I know this will probably make me sound crazy to y’all but, I have had deer meat every which way you can make it and it still just taste too wild to me so, I don’t eat it but my husband and kids like it. If Matt needs a snack tonight, he will be up getting him some of those fried green tomatoes if him and Austin don’t finish them off first. Hope y’all have a great rest of the week. Hugs from the southeast coast of Florida.😎🦩🌞🦩😎

Wonderful supper! I canned beef this past February as we were getting a new beef for the freezer, and we still had leftover beef from the year before. That's the way to go. It will last a long time canned than in the freezer. Plus. it is so easy to heat up and it is SO good and tender. New potatoes are my absolute favorite! Always have potatoes in the house. Such a versatile vegetable. Thanks so much for sharing Tipper!

@robertgibson723 Год назад

Every day is a new adventure. We diced and roasted our new Yukon golds in the oven at 450 and they were yummy. We also had Swiss chard from the garden. Harvested the first red tomato and 2 crooked neck squash I grew from seed! Harvesting is a real reward! Thanks for the inspirations!

Matt said, you sure that’s all the green tomatoes we need??? I bet he’d of let you fry up that whole row! 😂 Goodness, that meal Looks so delicious! I love your cutting board. One day when Matt retires maybe he can make some cutting boards for us to buy. You could get you a brand made and burn it into the wood. That’s what I was thinking when I was looking at your board while you were cutting.

@gloriaswift3896 Год назад

I love, love, LOVE fried green tomatoes! When I was little my Mom (who was from southern Virginia) would make them and ask me what we should have with them for supper. I would always tell her, "Nothing Mama! Just the tomatoes"! 😃 I still like fried green tomatoes all by themselves today!! Tell Matt leftover fried tomatoes are great for breakfast too! Heat them up and put them beside scrambled eggs....YUM! 😊

Love me some fried green tomatoes. I cut mine into squares and then dribble a tiny bit of buttermilk over them, toss em around. Add white lily cornmeal mix and a tiny bit of self-rising flour. Toss to make sure they are dry. Fry in a deep cast iron dutch oven til golden brown. They are so delicious and do not absorb so much grease.

Tipper,next year when you plant your potatoes, put a few inches of dirt in your container then your potato seed as your potato grows a few inches add more dirt keep doing this until your container is full, they like a lot of dirt on them.

Nice to see Matt got his fried green tomatoes. That's pretty much how I make them. I didn't do too many tomatoes this year. Odd spring weather so I got a late start. Almost didn't even bother, it was so cold and wet. But do have some Early Girl ripening. Not the best tomato but reliable. Nice to see everyone enjoying fruits of the garden after all that hard work. Hello from very hot Oregon.

I don't have a garden ( just spring onions) but am lucky I have many Amish and Mennonite veggie stands nearby with reasonable prices. We've had sweet corn and a mess of green beans and ham that was delish.
