Join me as I tour Oberholtzer's Sorghum Mill, in the picturesque South Fork community of Central Ky, where some of the finest taste in Kentucky is produced. If you are ever in Central Kentucky, stop by and see for yourself!
Sorghum Molasses is made from pressing the juice from a plant called Sorghum cane, which looks similar to sugar cane. The crop matures in early fall, and is ready for harvest. Sorghum Molasses can be used as a sweetener in cooking and baking, with butter on fresh biscuits, and so much more!
This is a first documentary for me, and please comment below if you like my work. See me online at www.zimmerman.win/

Ever since I was a kid I have always loved sorghum. I love the rich dark sweet taste. I'm 51 years old now and still enjoy your fine product. I even bought two jars instead of one this time. Thank you to all people who are dedecated to harvesting and processing sorghum. I will continue to enjoy it.

Thanks for your comment! There is truly very little that compares in the sweet taste of this syrup.. Put it on some hot biscuits, or take a spoonful just by itself, and you will be back!

There is a Sorghum Fest each Oct. in Blairsville Georgia. They crush it and cook it right in front of your eyes. They also sell the hot buttered biscuits for the sorghum to go right on! MMMMMM It' worth the trip if you're close.

Old country stiroffs with the mules or poppin John tractors are a long lost tradition in the hills of Appalachia. A bunch of tow headed boys cuttin the cane and packing it on our shoulders to the cane mill. Such good memories of days gone by?

As I started watching, I noticed something about your name that sounded very familiar. Then I looked in my pantry, and sure enough, I have a jar and it's absolutely delicious!

My uncle had a sorghum mill and I've eaten molasses all my life. Not quite as sweet as honey, but with butter and biscuits it's heaven.

@fathersonandskillet Год назад

Sorghum doesn't get enough love anymore. We think it's better than molasses. It's a key ingredient in our barbecue sauce.

@jamesoliver6625 10 месяцев назад

You'd think they'd have a funeral tent out there with a handful of picnic tables under it and a few of the ladies would be making pan after pan of biscuits for soppin' in the syrup.

@johnberry1107 11 месяцев назад

We like our sweets. I favor maple syrup and granddad stayed with molasses. Good content. Bless

I grew up in a farming family in Wyoming. We grew sugar beets and in the fall at the end of harvest we made beet syrup similar to sorghum. I love to use it and sorghum in my meads n lagers as well as my bbq. Not to mention when we have hocks n beans with cornbread n sorghum. It just works so good together. If ever I have the opportunity to pass through Kentucky, I hope to do so during the syrup season. Thanks for posting

Saw this made over 60 years ago when they used to use horses to grind the stalks and boiled it over an open fire in old black pots. I haven't had any for years but I remember that I really liked it on toast. Do you sell it on line anywhere???

@zimmermanphotography 10 месяцев назад

Yes, you can find their product on Amazon, if you search Oberholtzers Sorghum

Thanks for the suggestion @leahley7688 I did not mention it in the video, but you can see something about that in the info below the video.

It's just a type of large grass looks a lot like corn but doesn't have any cobs on it. Its also called Sudan grass and is normally used as cattle feed.

@@deannelson9565 sorghum sudan which is used for forage, and cane sorghum are a good bit different, just for the record.

@@zimmermanphotography No not really There's one chemical in there that is higher concentration and sorghum versus seudan grass but considering the fact I live right where almost all of it's raised in the United States and especially a shit on more than what raised by where you're at I'll take that bet!

hi @michaelsimmons2759. People use sorghum molasses with butter on a hot biscuit, or use it for sweetener alternatives to sugar etc.

@zimmermanphotography Год назад

They mostly sell during the season when they are pressing, retail, and ship in bulk wholesale. But you can find the product on Amazon.

Is it better than Muddypond sorghum syrup?

Hi. I would imagine it would taste very similar. Both are made by folks who have been in the business for many many years, and know their stuff.

"half good" first effort Ben! No mention that Oberholtzer's is a processing center for crops produced all over the region? No mention of how the terms used to describe "sorghum" vary by the location? No mention of the Amish & Mennonite community? No mention that the entire processing facility sits idle for 10 months of the year?

@zimmermanphotography 2 месяца назад

😀 Thank you! Oberholtzer sorghum is all raised within several miles of the mill, as far as I know. That is not a very large "region". 2. I am sure what folks call sorghum varies! :-) 3. Could mention the Amish and Mennonite community, but these folks are not attempting to use that to sell their product. 4. Sorghum is definitely a seasonal product! 😄

@zimmermanphotography 10 месяцев назад

Not funny. Yes children sometimes like to be involved in family fun even at 3 AM! Maybe you don't have children. And if you do, I wonder if they are the strong, healthy, happy children that these are..... Our society needs more families who get outside and do things together.
