We're a small micro family farm/homestead in the Piney Woods of East TX. We'll share what we do on our homestead, recipes, projects and more.
Aside from tending to our flock and our pets, we do a lot of outdoor cooking with rocket stoves and smokers, some foraging, primitive pottery making as well as spoon crafting and even amateur metal detecting!
We are excited to share the knowledge we acquire, the tricks we learn, and hopefully the joy that comes with learning it!

Forage and Cook Chanterelles
Foraging yellow & cinnabar red chanterelles
Never munch on a hunch!
Chanterelles are some of the yummiest wild mushrooms you can get, a quick saute in butter with a dash of salt and pepper brings out their nutty flavor.
Chanterelles can be found growing in forests among leaf litter. They have false gills, ridges that run down under the cap to the stem. True gills are more fragile, please always do your own research before consuming any wild plant or fungi.

Fire Roasted Smoked Spicy Campfire Snack Mix
zhlédnutí 63Před 3 měsíci
You can use any ingredients you like! I make my smoky campfire snack mix with corn Chex, wheat Chex, and mini stick pretzels. 1 box each Chex, half a bag of pretzels. I pour about 3/4 cup of butter with some added honey over the snack mixture in three different pans. Toss everything really well and then coat with your favorite seasoning/rub. Toss it again. Throw on an open flame smoker around 2...
Gosling and Ducklings Total Solar Eclipse Reaction

There was all kinds of chatter about how farm animals would react to sudden darkness during the total solar eclipse here in East Texas, so we decided to record the gosling and ducklings during it.

Make a Crawfish Trap from a Milk Jug - Mudbug Hotel
zhlédnutí 457Před 3 měsíci
You can make a simple crawfish trap with a milk jug. We used fishing line to tie it together, but zip ties make for a more reliable and even quicker build. We used cat food and some stale breads but meat scraps are the best bait if you have any on hand. Results will vary, but you can increase your odds by creating multiple traps and letting them sit overnight.
Dispatch & Skin - Copperhead and 5 ft Rat Snake just a few feet apart!
zhlédnutí 2,2KPřed 3 měsíci
I always carry this Ruger wrangler loaded with snake shot when I go back in these woods, and now you can see why it's a good idea. Both a 5 ft of rat snake and a baby copperhead were stumbled upon during our trek down to the water. After cautiously dispatching them, we skinned them and threw the skins in the freezer for tanning at a later date. oh, and the birds got a nice danger noodle salad.
Wood Fire Smoked Beef Jerky - Honey Pepper
zhlédnutí 45Před 4 měsíci
I flash grill the meat before I dry it out slowly. I like to start cooking about 250 F, rotating and flipping the jerky. As soon as it has that "cooked" look to it, I drop the temp to about 150 F This process takes about 4-5 hours. I used salt, black pepper and honey for a quick marinade, for better results do it overnight. I also added a touch more honey when it was done and shook it in a bag....
Firing Clay to Ceramic with No Kiln - Primitive Pottery Part 3

Firing Clay into ceramic with no kiln. Used a stainless steel salad bowl to create a heat trap and protect the pottery from debris as I tried to get it up to 1200 F. everything came out fairly well, one of the items had a very short crack near the rim. We didn't spend a great deal of time crafting these items as we wanted to conduct this experiment to have been through the entire process, from ...
Crafting a Tree Fork Slingshot - Oak with looped tubes
zhlédnutí 308Před 4 měsíci
A simple slingshot you can make from a tree fork. Be sure to sand very smooth any areas that will contact the tubes/bands. Any added friction will cause premature failure or excessive wear on your band set. I used linseed oil to seal and harden the frame.
Mixing Clay with Temper - Primitive Pottery Part 2
zhlédnutí 42Před 4 měsíci
Simply mix your clay and temper at a 4:1 ratio, form your piece of pottery, and let it dry out for a week or more, then your clay will be prepared and ready to turn into ceramic by firing it at 1200 F
Dirt Rocket Stove - Quick and Easy with very little Wood
zhlédnutí 2,2KPřed 4 měsíci
An in ground rocket stove is more windproof, more stealthy, and takes very little fuel material to cook or boil water. The drawback of this style is the need to feed the fire pretty often to keep it going compared to a wooden one that will sustain itself for hours. A fire hole is easy to put out when you are done, just choke it and bury everything.
Offset Smokers : Fire Management is Everything
zhlédnutí 707Před 4 měsíci
Stop adjusting those flaps! Let that fire breathe! If you learn your smoker, you can build a fire and control the temperature of your smoker with good fire maintenance alone. Every smoker is different - different airflow, different firebox, different metal mass to warm. Mastering your smoker is mastering the fires you start and maintain inside of it. Offset smokers can be more laborious to use ...
Little Swedish Rocket Camp Stove - Bound by Vines

This is a miniature swedish candle turned rocket stove with an air intake in the side. Chop a small log into quarters, cut and chop a shelf into the two fattest adjacent pieces. Then chop a half diamond out of two pieces where they meet up with the shelf for air intake. Wrap some green vines around the base and the top and light it up with some small dry material. Add rocks as a spacer on top t...
Smoked Salsa with Poblano Peppers & Peperoncinis - My Favorite Method

This is delicious smoky salsa that is great with some chips or even better as an additive to your eggs, tacos, pasta, and more! I hope you'll enjoy it as much as we do. I tend to make up a batch when the weather is nice and the produce is on sale. This is a great way to use excess garden produce as well.

Slingshot Review : Beanflip Ocularis - Flat Out Good
zhlédnutí 734Před 4 měsíci
The beanflip slingshot is very similar to the axiom. Two of my favorite simpleshot slingshots, with a slight difference. The beanflip is a bit shorter and flatter to fit in the pocket or belt. The Beanflip also has a more defined grip and a hole to place your pinky for added control and stability of the frame. I love the versatility of the plug system on these slingshots, they are great for exp...

How to Painlessly Trim a Chickens Flight Feathers
That's the worst ive ever seen lmao. Thanks bro
Enjoy your mudbugs!
Also be sure to keep an eye on traps and not leave them too long. You can accidentally catch water snakes in these too and it’ll drown the snake
Poke some holes in the bottom and the water will drain when you pull it up
or I would ad a perfect festival fire, with hazard control factor.
Nice.
They are so many here in Western Kentucky 🫡🇺🇲🤘
Watch where you step! It's that time of year!
I thought the Rat snake and Black snakes weere good for the critter control??
They are unless you have chickens, especially chicks. This was near our ducklings and gosling and we've been loosing eggs. Their bite can also cause a nasty infection.
You could cut a piece with branch and have a handle so it can be lifted and moved if necessary?
That's a great idea!
Should have drill the holes before cutting block off…
Wow,that's cool.A portable and disposable stove, brilliant!
You made it look like hard work 😅
That sweet gum was some pretty hard stuff lol
Great video. Might be easier if you drill the holes whale the log is still attached to the full tree then cut off the piece you want 😊
Indeed, next time! Thank you for watching!
I hate to say this but I think you might freeze before you get that thing done.
Rocket stoves are not for warmth. Thanks for watching!
That's a great idea. I'm sorry to be pedantic but the 'drill' is called an auger drill bit. It refers to the twisty style of the cutting edge and the helix to remove the waste. In England it's known as a Scotch eyed auger. I hope that helps people who try to buy one. If you notice the loop you pass the branch through has a tapered end. That is so you can put the tapered end on a log end and smash it to make pegs when you're constructing stuff. The pegs should fit the hole the drill makes.
No worries at all! Thank you for watching!
Really cool!
❤
Excellent! Will do this on the next family holiday by the beach
That sounds like fun! I'm hoping to go try some metal detecting at a beach soon! Good travels to ya, thank you for watching!
Thank you for sharing this practical and interesting wood fire technique. Happy Trails! 🇺🇸 🏕 🔥
Thank you for watching! 😊
More commonly and long known as a Dakota fire hole
One thing I learned about the Oaklahoma Joe is that when I first see smoke from the grease port I need to adjust the logs. I have both the Highland and the Longhorn.
Thanks for sharing this informational video. What type of wood are you using in this video?
I am using both oak and hickory in this video. The small sticks and small rounds are oak from the property, the larger splits are hickory from a store.
@@GlowingPinesFarm looks good!
Pretty cool❤
Thank you!
Fire is overrated. Or just bring a mini burner and two cans of butane. Anyway great upload thx!
I'm with you all the way on this one. Fire box open, control with the flue. If you try to control with the fire box vent AND the flue you will end up controlling nothing. I do the same with me Weber kettle. Botton vent stay open at all time and adjustments for temp with the top vent. Works a treat!
Its painful to watch you struggle… a lot more to learn before posting vids bro…
I'm sorry you were disappointed, thank you for watching, though!
What a weird and unnecessary thing to say, like, dude wasn't even struggling? Some people only know how to be an asswipe on the Internet.❤
@@tvheadd :D :D :D
But he wasn't struggling
Nice
Super awesome, useful, and quite honestly, pretty nice looking. the vines add a nice touch!
I was a bit surprised at how well it worked, You can move it easily as one piece. Thanks for watching!
Cool intro!!!
Thank you! I'm still new at this but I'm learning every video! 😁
very good job i have done the same
This is why clamps were invented...lol
I had a perfectly good clefted rock, lol 😂 A few other users suggested drilling it out before cutting it from the tree, brilliant. 💡
When did a Pioneers's Auger or Scotch Eye Auger become a settlers wrench. Its an Auger, a wrench is for tightening nuts, plumbers use wrenches, mechanics use wrenches. People making holes in wood use AUGERS........
It was from the settlers that settled before nuts were invented 🤣
Nice job! Cool looking frame!
Thanks TB! Def my favorite I have made so far!
I drill the wholes before I cut the piece of the tree. Nice video thanks
Thanks for watching! That is great advice, would have saved me some awkwardness when drilling.. next time!
a settlers wrench. SO i can not use any ordinary wrench, it has to be one of the Settlers. Who are the Settlers in today's world? Hahaha
I'm not sure 😂 I know I wanted steak for lunch but I settled for a sandwich...
The tool you’re using, you don’t turn the pilot in to start the bit. Take a healthy stick and set the point then tap it down to start.
Great advice! Thank You!
@@GlowingPinesFarmIf I may ask, where did you get your settlers wrench from? I do like that particular style
Curious also, I’ve been eyeing multiple online but haven’t pulled the trigger yet
@@seventeen912 it was a gift, I think it was purchased on amazon
Fantastic video, wasn't aware you could use pillow cases. Thanks for the quality content.
Thank you for watching!
I tried this but like splitting it with a saw better, split it laying on its side, you’ll have long strings of wood for your fire starter !
Please don't think of criticism but I have explained the same till I drilled the side hole and dang I didn't hear the coyotes before . Have fun and enjoy
Experienced
Good job but I would drill the side h I left before cutting
Yea😆 Another viewer made a similar comment, I definitely will next time, will be easier for sure!

That came out really nice. Those jackerys are way over priced. I bought a pecron for 855 it has 2000 w inverter, 1200 watts of solar input and a 1980 w lifepo4 battery. I still want to do what you did because if anything breaks you can immediately replace whatever the problem is plus there is nothing like doing it yourself! You did a really nice job!
It was a fun project, my only regret is building it into a cheaper tote. I'd like to rebuild it into one of those stackable toolboxes with the wheels on it. Oh and a hard disconnect. I was intimidated a bit at first but there really isn't a whole lot to it! I was considering a bluetti before I ended up doing this instead. Thanks for watching!
Portable powah! Can have endless phone games even in the apocalypse! 😅
awesome
Very good 👍🤝
Thank you!
Why not drill holes before cutting piece from the log? That would seem more stable to me and easier to manipulate.
Ha! That would be a bit easier I bet!
Probably because there aren't any electrical outlets on that tree
These look really good! I love how soft they are. I am thinking about making this recipe to use for homemade burritos.
Please let me know how they turn out or if you have any questions! I use them for burritos all the time, in fact the remainder of these got used for breakfast burritos and stored in the freezer for a quick breakfast.
Destruction is in your blood
1:28 3 teaspoons equal 1 tablespoon
oops! Thank you! Onscreen text is wrong, recipe is correct. Add one tbsp or three tsp of baking powder. Should be trimmed out soon.
For how long can you use it? It looks really cool.
You can use one this size for a little over an hour. So basically you can do one meal on it, or you can snuff it out and boil water 3 or 4 times. I like keeping a few handy in case of a power outage. Also, relighting one that's already been "started" is quite a bit faster than a fresh one. Thank you for watching!
Made my day!!!!
