Swamp Cabbage, Armadillo and Wild Boar! Wild Food on an open fire! 

For the past 6 years, I have struggled with Addiction. Watching DMFD and Bluegabe reignited my love for the outdoors and fishing. It has been a pinnacle point in my sobriety and whenever I am having a rough day I throw on a couple of your videos. My recovery is centered around fishing and backpacking up in the Pacific Northwest. Now with Two and a Half years of sobriety, I have been able to hold down a great job and save up for a nice bass boat of my own. Take it out a few days a week after work and do a lot of Salmon Fishing on the Columbia River. The outdoors and your videos reigniting my passion have been a lifesaver. Just wanted to say thank you for all you do! You truly make a difference in the outdoor community and sure have in my life.

Armadillos are a natural carrier of Leprosy, Flordia has several cases a year. Be careful in handling them. If something weird shows up check the symptoms online.

It was the first Swamp cabbage episode that got me hooked to this channel all them years ago. You and your family have come so far and been blessed by God. Thank you for sharing your amazing adventures with us. ❤️

Love this brother, very humble. These are the dinners that also take me back to the days of my childhood. My grandpa use to the same. True memories.

It’s cool to see you back! It was amazing to see you fishing in my old home town back up North! Can’t wait to see you go back for hunting!

I have been a fan of this channel for years I live in Barbados and I am a former Police Detective Sergeant . I just love the way you and your family has progressed over the years . Everytime I hear you reminisce about your Grandfather it gets me kind of emotional because it shows that you haven't forgotten your roots and that he has had a great effect on your life and upbringing. It also makes me reflect on my Grandaddy who has long passed he was a very loving man an old cane cutter and plantation worker who despite that was a very brilliant man actually a mathematical genius . Gosh I miss him and hope to see him one day in heaven. God bless you and your family Rob . Keep up the good work. Respect!!

Today happens to be 2 years that my pawpaw passed and this video hit home for me. He was a military veteran and raised me to be the man I am today. I have many stories about him as you do Rob about your grandfather. Feel like I connected with today's video on a high level. Thank you for what you do Robert and your fellowship, also glad to see you back on the Ranch. God Bless

It’s so satisfying watching you make swamp cabbage

Rob you are a true legend. Doing a video like this makes one really miss the older generation. It also makes you realize that we should get back to the basics and enjoy it. Thanks a mill

*Drops camera* "Sorry about that" *throws camera into pellet bath in the next cut* 🤣🤣🤣 that's what happens when the camera doesn't behave haha love ya Rob! Good to see ya back on the ranch! 🤠

Why can't your bro have some compassion like you do. You are the GOAT of the family.

Rob you warm my heart..Old School is my History...You get it and I appreciate you...The land and what it produces was all they had back in the day...I miss it...Thank You...

Start of 2020 I found this channel, my son calls it dinner dinner, and he is 3years old. We watch together and encourage one another to do the things we watch. Thank you for a family friendly channel. Thank you for keep on showing how men can live with family and friends. Love your channel and keep up with the great work.

Robert one of the best part of this video is you having the younger boys at the ranch. I bet you are teaching them on how to live off grid and on swamp ranch. We have to take time out as us older guys and pass the fun times to this younger generation to keep the outdoors alive for the future. I love cooking outdoors like this as well. Be Bless and have a great week.

I loved the Big Roll and all that you did along the way and in Alaska. However, I, at the same time, missed the authentic DMFD content and this surely hit home. Thanks for a great video!

glory to you grandpa and grandma. and your mom and dad..for raising such a good person. keep on this way Rob.

Loved the recent Alaska series but these are my favorite videos by you! That looks amazing and cooking it in the woods like you do is pure artistry. Keep them coming. Your awesome bud!!! Welcome home.

This is probably the 3-4th swamp cabbage video, I freaking love them and I learn something new every time.

Back to the basics!! Best video I've seen in awhile. I've been a subscriber for a long time and miss the ranch videos and the simple fishing trips. Your catch clean and cooks from back in the day are my absolute favorites...

This video genuinely makes me happy man, this is literally someone sharing my nativity and I get to watch it.

Awesome video Rob! I love getting notifications when you post a new video! You never know what’s gonna happen with your video’s! The fact that you caught that armadillo out of no where was awesome! Thanks for the content man!

This video was awesome, no fancy shots, no epic music, just pure raw nature

this one just feels so close to heart... lots of respect from a far far country... such a heartwarming watch just before sleep...

Back to your roots! I’m related to Moses Barber, the pioneer who established a huge cattle operation in Florida before the civil war. Their feud with the Mizell family is legendary. Hats off to your grandpa.

Nice to hear your tributes to your grandfather, reflecting the moral/family value he had placed in you, something we don't hear often or enough nowadays. Great respect to you!

Bro, you sure don't skip a beat! From Alaska back to Florida, you're still slinging out videos continuously. Great job and great video!

I truly love your content. You are so down to earth and care about your family. True inspiration Thank you for all you do

Yes so glad y’all made it back safe and ready for the ranch videos!!

What happened to Austin? Hope he's doing well. Glad your back in the sunshine state. Alaska was beautiful thanks for taking us along.

I am so happy that you are back in Florida and we can see the videos we are use to seeing

I absolutely loved the content, the approach, the history, your memory of it. Oh yeah this is a favorite. I appreciate you!

I'm 61 years old and I was born and raised in south Florida My dad ,(86 years now) was to. When I saw you put that salt on the tomato brought back memories of my childhood.

Good Alaska videos, it is good to have y'all back

What happened to Austin is he going to be back on the channel? Love everything you do and you inspire me in so many ways and the way you are with the kids you are the person I look up to every day and your brothers too blue gabe your whole family I love it keep up the great work

Robert. Love what you do, love what y'all are about. Watching you cook fresh kill pork on an open fire while waiting for my toaster strudels to pop up. Peace and blessings

Looks like you had a hard time with that cabbage lol . Thank you Robert for being an awesome mentor. I really got a lot of love for you ! Saying some prayers tonight for you. God bless you and thank you for your contribution to our country and service . Praying for our nation tonight and everyone out there . Goodnight.

I remember you making Swamp Cabbage with Cliff back in the day. I miss seeing Cliff on the channel!

I still start chuckling after watching Rob holding a paper plate in one hand (cooking outdoors up in Alaska) and putting the dishes in it off of the fire 🔥. The plate began to burn, so he had to put it out...got another paper plate to remove more items and caught that plate on fire as well....lol 😆.

5 Generations in Florida I love seeing some good Ole swamp cabbage cooked up. There is so much to old Florida people don't know. Awesome video DMFD

I loved watching this style of video awesome to see you pay respects to your grandfather like this👍🏼

Hey, where's Austin? We miss him! Your videos are not just inspiring, they're also a way for some of us who don't get to experience the outdoors to experience it through you.

Thanks for inspiring me to start my own Catch&Cook channel right here in Cape Town, South Africa🇿🇦🎣🎣🎣

Your one hell of a creative guy, who knows how to make something from nothing with a teaching behind the scene. Blessed be.

That was obviously an awesome trip, and some! I hope your happy being home, happy there's a new video. In all honesty, you seemed far from your usual self. I hope all is good with your life and family. If you are too tired, please know we are happy to wait for your videos. God bless

Hope Austin is still part of the team.

For 31 years most of my days have been spent centered around being outdoors. I've watched your channel a couple years and your brother's awhile to because you guys are great and your content is centered around what I enjoy. The reason for telling you all this is life changed and I haven't spent much time doing what I love in awhile and I got unsubbed somehow to you and just realized it today through a suggested video. Point is I just started get back outside at the same time as refinding your channel. Sorry for long comment I felt the synchronicity is important. Stay Up ⬆️ Brother.

I about fell off the chair when I heard you say your GrandDaddy was "Shotgun" Shiver! I grew up in the saddle on my GrandDaddy's place, Williamson Cattle Ranch. When I was in 1st & 2nd grade, we lived in town, right next to Shotgun :) Just three months ago, I rode by his old place with Iris. As you know, Iris was a good friend of Shotgun, and her stories of him & the old days are legendary!! You come from good tough stock. Thanks for sharing those memories!

Thank you soo much for your videos and stories of Grand dad, it truly does bring back a ton of great memories with mine. I thank you sooo so much

Thanks for sharing the video Rob, where is Austin at?

Is austin completely done with editing and being around?

1 of the best videos of natural nature survival I've seen so far i know you've done alot but to turn a tree into food is absolutely amazing me and my son absolutely love your life family and motive to others....thank you so much

I missed this!!! Authentic DMFD watching as I type lol I’m so excited

Rob what happened to Austin? We the people want to know

You’re brave 😮

Honestly glad your back in Florida !! I love these catch clean cook Florida style videos

Salt 🧂 on a raw tomato 🍅 was a treat my Great Grandpa showed me when i was 8 yrs old. You made me flash back when did that. Thanks 😊 great video brother

Idk about eating armadillos dont them things carry leprosy or other diseases??

One of my dreams is to go fishing with you to Alaska. If there is a way I could get in contact with you please would you let me know. I am from South Africa and you visited not to long ago. Missed the opportunity to hunt with you. Keep motivating people.

Great site series! Real hunting, real food, close to nature. Well done! I just got an appetite...👌😆

Rob I'm so speechless, I can relate, my family grew up with nothing too. I Love your videos..... keep making making more pls

Thank you for finally explaining to people why you wear a long sleeved shirt. It's hot, humid and muggy here in eastern virginia and not many people understand why I wear a long sleeved shirt in the summer time!

Appreciate learning your humble beginnings I actually learned a little history from this video

The way you sighted in the rifle at 4:32 is what we refer to in the military as "lolly popping". It's the quickest way to bore sight pretty much anything

Back in Florida! Loved all the Alaska videos, glad you guy had a great trip🙏🏽

Love watching you guys wait all week to watch you and Gabe Kelly keep up love you guys

Very wholesome video, my grandpa died when I was young but he loved to hunt, camp, and fish

I'm 6 generation from Fort Myers Florida, my grandfather with the cava cowboy and my dad worked cattle with him and for him. They even hunted Wild cattle for the state,and did a lot of alligator hunting as well back then. We used to cut and eat a lot of swamp cabbage cabbage back then as well and I really like it better raw. Glad ya'll made it back from your excursion to the land of the barn doors.

Man Rob, every time I see you make swamp cabbage I get so hungry. If I have a bucket list of food swap cabbage is on it. I love how simple, but time honored a meal that is. Stay awesome my brother and stay blessed

Hi from Syracuse NY everyone thank you for sharing your adventures and your ranch

Great seeing you in the ranch cooking swampcavage 🙏

Thanks for letting the armadillo go! Much love from NYC

Here we go back in FL !! Appreciate y'all

For years I have watch your show. An the one I like bout you is. You stay humble sir. Your amazing beautiful family an good friends. Love it keep it up. A friend from Virginia for life keep up the videos

Much Respect for your ancestor. I love watching this. Tough is as Tough does. My people lived in the Ozark Highlands. Completely different from where you are. We hunted Bear and caught 30 lb. catfish with our hands underwater. My ancestors were Tough. Thanks for the vids.

Food from necessity brought the world, food as we know it today. All great chefs stand on the shoulders of the people that had to eat, not wanted to. Love the content, God speed Robert

Videos like this Is the reason I started watching your channel. Keep it going

Wow that’s awesome I never in my life seen someone stop and hop out of a vehicle and bare handed catch a armadillo!!!! Your awesome!!!!!🙏😎

You're a special guy man , you've reminded me about my late dad , that's how we use to go out hunting in Africa. We barely bought meat from grocery stores.

Nice! So much land space and so much wild. A hand full just maintaining the fish feeder. It calls for a cold Beer 🍺 Robbert after such tiring day of work. Food looks good! 🇸🇽🇬🇾🙏🏼❤️😋🍺

Awesome video!Now I thinking I should harvest some swamp cabbage from my property and try it.Hope to see your wingman Austin back on the channel soon!!God bless y'all

Great Video Rob - I remember when I first moved to Florida back in 84 in my job i had to go to Labelle Florida often and Swamp cabbage festival is held there. Wow it is Fantastic Cabbage. I believe you met one of my Son's down at Ram Rod Key at Boondocks a few years ago he to hurt his foot but from an airboat accident about 15 years ago . We all in our family watch your videos, and they are Great along with your brother Gabes as well - Keep up the Great Job and stay humble as you are. God Bless

Glad to see you're back Rob!! Love these videos! I've yet to try swamp cabbage yet since moving to south Florida but it's on the list. You make it look SO good!! Lol. Unfortunately I've been dealing with some medical issues that make it kind of hard to get around. So unfortunately I haven't been able to explore and fish and do alot of stuff I'd like to do or try.

I’ve gotten a lot of my recipes from you. Thank you 🙏🏾 for your videos.

That dinner with swamp cabbage looked delicious. Your videos sure make me want to see florida!

I am going to try this. We moved to north central FL 3 years ago and I have not tried swamp cabbage yet. But after seeing this and the video of the meal you made for the fire department I really want to try this

One of best videos of the ranch I’ve seen this year.

Thanks for all your videos!! I love them all!

So stoked you were cooking a Cracker Classic! My uncle by marriage was a north FL cracker, and was so poor growing up in Perry that they couldn’t afford milk for cornflakes-they used CocaCola instead! All his life he used CocaCola on his cornflakes for breakfast, because he grew up a poor Cracker and proud of it.

When I was a big kid , I carried a case lockhorn pocket knife , but I kept my double bit axe razor sharp. Carried my salt n pepper , hooks lines , ammo , carbide light , ina homemade shoulder bag. I've ate lots of wild game and fish wild vegetables, sometimes get garden stuff from people who I knew well enough. To pay later , or help with chores around

Can't wait to see the videos of bringing the friends you made in Alaska all the way to Florida to see how you do it down home .

Man O Man - what a great video. It reminds me of some similar times back in mid 70s in deep woods central Florida (all built up now - St Cloud/Kissimmee area) when I was in late teens/early twenties. I had the privilege of doing some of this with two old black men I used to work with. They would forage wild food exactly like this and serve it at our annual company picnic. I'll always cherish those memories- and the chow! Oh the memories! Thank you for this!!!!!

ROB Again outstanding video again. Good ol Swamp Cabbage and fresh Pork. You cannot get better then that.

as a huge fan of the old west its very cool to hear you talk about your great grandfather in the florida south, I feel like that was a whole different brand of cowboy that we dont see in hollywood movies.

Hope you all enjoyed your trip through Alaska

Miss the ranch, the cabin, and the boys too. They're all grown up now😊

Every once in a while I like to watch one of your episodes with the collection of swamp cabbage. I think it’s great that resource is out there. LaBelle just had a palm cabbage festival this weekend. Wish I could’ve gotten there. I’m guessing they do all kinds of meals with that item.

Thanks for sharing all the things you do!

Love this - you're so authentic. Never knew that was Hearts of Palm !!

At 15:50 - I was thinking: he's going to need a bigger pan. Well done, once again.

Favorite RU-vidr ever and swamp cabbage is so good
