      I loved this video lol.
      Thank you for sharing your recipes with us Hun & your home grown & canned pickled beets look so good. They've always been one of my favorite veggies.
      There's nothing like the beautiful sound of cornbread batter hitting that hot oil in the skillet lol.
      Have you ever tried pouring a little bit of cold cream on your black berry cobbler?
      It'll make you reconsider your ice cream option with your cobbler lol it tastes so good with a little bit of sugar in it with just touch of vanilla.
      I also like to do my roasts & stews with root veggies like turnips, parsnips, rutabagas, carrots, potatoes, onions & garlic, sometimes mushrooms, I also use McCormick Montreal Steak Seasoning to season my meat & I like to quarter my garlic cloves, cut slits into both sides of the roasts & stick a garlic quarter into the slits in the meat & 2 or 3 bay leaves in with the roasts & stews.
      I also like a little Lee & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce on top of my roasts & a little in with the water in the bottom.
      It really boosts the flavor of your roasts & stews & veggies.
      I clean, peel & cut up my root veggies in nice big chunks put some on the bottom of the crock pot, season them with Montreal Steak Seasoning & then put the roast on top of them with the rest of the veggies around the sides of the roasts.
      The drippings that are left make a perfect thin gravy to pour over the root veggies & slices of roast.
      The root veggies have a whole different taste after cooking all day with roasts & stews.
      When you do roasts & stews like that it retains the vitamins & minerals in the root veggies instead of losing them all in boiling water.
      It diminishes the sulfur taste in the turnips & rutabagas & it just brings out their sweetness & has such a great flavor.
      I created this years ago & ever since then I've never made any other kind of roasts or stews, my kids all grown now, always ask me to make them when they're here.
      Please, if you ever try my recipes for my roasts & stews let me honestly know what you think about them.
      Fall is just around the corner & these are definitely Fall & Winter comfort foods & are especially good the next day if you have any left that is lol.
      With my 5, 1 girl & four boys the big pots would be empty by the end of dinner lol, especially when I made my big pots of greens & cornbread lol.
      I can't wait for this extreme heat to go away so I can make these again lol.

Its a shame people don't know how yummy they are & I love getting people hooked on our way of cooking them. Only differences are we roast our fresh beets, turnips, & radish in the oven instead of using the canned ones. I also add creamed corn to my cornbread to make it super moist & melt butter over the top right out of the oven. I always add brown gravy mix to my roast while it's cooking❤

    Thanks Tipper. That looked like a wonderful meal! And watching Matt do the dishes made my day. I love turnips and was going to tell you about the time I was sneaking a turnip out of my neighbor's garden when I was about 10 and getting caught. He was nice and said any time I wanted one to come and get it. But then you made the upside down blackberry cobbler and it brought back memories. When my hubby and I got together for our first Thanksgiving I made one from blackberries I had picked from almost at the top of Cullowee Mountain.Those blackberries were huge! They were as big as my thumb and sweet as could be. So I canned as many as I could. Needless to say he was impressed with the cobbler. That was over 36 years ago. To this day he says it was the best cobbler he's ever had. Much Love

    This time of year our garden is covered with 3 feet of snow. I'm so happy for you, Tipper, and a little bit envious, that you are still able to harvest your fall crops. What a treat that must be! Few things are more satisfying than growing your own food and eating it fresh. We love turnips and rutabaga, but ours were harvested in late October before they were buried in snow. They're still ok, but nothing like eating them fresh. Thank goodness the girls bombed their vocab test!

    One of my earliest memories is going with my dad to my great grandmother’s house. We pulled some turnips and their tops. I remember how dad cut me one right there in the garden. The chilly air and the crisp sweet raw turnip. Dad would peel them and leave the stalk on them to be eaten like a turnip lollipop. Grandma Beat would make them soupy too. She would add a tad of sugar, salt and a right smart of pepper. We would eat them over biscuits. We always said Grandma Beat could cook shoe leather and we would eat it. She was the oldest of ten and had to start cooking at ten years old to help her mama. Thank you for bringing back precious memories once again. Have a good week.

    Pop-pop always planted a patch of turnips and one of kale after the summer garden was done to have for fall and early winter. I only eat turnips raw, peeled and sliced, but not with salt. I like their clean bitter-sweet taste as they come. Mom-mom cooked potatoes and turnips in two pots. Pop-pop would mash them together on his plate and pour some pot liquor from cabbage or green beans over the mash. I am envious of your glass baking dish. The molded decorations in the glass are beautiful , and, its a good, large sized example. The pot roast looked scrumptious. I was given gift certificates this Christmas to a local farm that raises and butchers heirloom breeds of cattle, hogs and sheep. I'm definitely going to get a nice chuck roast to make pot roast when I redeem the certificates.

    Tipper, I love cooked turnips too! I will tell you that my first exposure to turnips was a bit different. Maybe some of your other viewers enjoyed them this way too. When I was a small child, Daddy would wash a turnip real good and cut the top off of it. Then he would take a regular teaspoon and start to scrape the white "meat" out until the spoon was full of juicy turnip and then he would give me that bite. Then he'd scrape out a bite for himself...back and forth until the turnip was just like a little empty bowl! I thought this was grand eating! He taught my daughter the same way when she was little. She carried that "recipe" with her into her adulthood!

    The first time I ate turnips was as a young man. I volunteered to help do some firewood and general cleanup for a brother & sister that lived together at the base of a mountain in a small house and they never had electricity. They were in their 80's and it was amazing how well they did without electricity. As a show of gratitude she cooked us Corned beef (venison) & cabbage with turnips along with fresh baked bread from the cookstove, then washed it down with fresh milk from the springhouse. I've always liked that meal ever since and it reminds me of them. Many times I feel us "modern" folks could sure learn a thing or two from the generation that had to live like that, and thrived. They had one cow and several chickens and a couple of ponds filled with small but delicious fish. Watching your videos bring back so many memories from peoples past.

    I don't recall ever having turnips. But you've sure made me think about ordering some seeds & putting some in my early & late garden. Thanks so much, I absolutely love celebrating & learning about Appalachia with you ☕💐

    Tipper- I feel like I am back in my mothers kitchen when you cook. I didn't appreciate turnips until I got about 17 or 18 years old. But I sure love them now. And you said it right, "soupy" turnips are the best!! And we also, eat cornbread "daily". Matt washing dishes is really a blessing...

    I like cast iron skillets. My mom and grandma always used them. When i visited Valle cruces near boone NC i saw some at their local mercantile store. Love that place because they have all kinds of root beer candies. Your roast looks amazing.

    We grew turnips when I was a teenager. We would pick the tender greens and have a mess quite often and then we would eventually have turnip roots. I never liked them much cooked, but I loved to eat them raw. That looks like a really good dinner--your family is blessed to have you cook for them!

    What a perfect match you both are!..When the meal is done you both do the dishes!..Of course that’s a great way to spend a little more time together as well!…A man who goes out and does a hard days work, enjoys the meal his beautiful wife prepares for him, and then helps her to clean up afterwards!..A great pairing right there!..❤️

    My distant relatives moved from Appalachia to Texas in about 1865. We eat similarly prepared foods. During the week as a child, we did not eat meat but ate a lot of beans and potatoes and cornbread..

    That was a Granny Sumner or Granny Davis meal. I'm 75 and they've been gone a long time, but my sister and I always say that was a Granny meal if there were a lot of veggies with it. Sure do miss them, our Mama and Daddy, too. Thank you for good memories.

    My Family is from Beckley West Virginia. They moved to Florida in the 60's, but this is still how they cooked. Light Bread? That is a recipie my grandmother had given me when I was in College 2006 FSU! Thank you so much for what you are doing!!!

    Looks like a delicious supper! I have a pork roast in the oven for tonight. Sure wish I had some turnips to fix. We ate turnip greens growing up but I never had a turnip until I got married. His dad would always have a big garden and he would give us some. We always ate them raw with salt. I been married for 34 years and we've just been able to have our own garden for about the last seven years. Last year was the first time I decided I would try and cook turnips. We tried them fried and stewed and loved them both ways! We just didn't get any plated this year.

    So nice to see a man help in the kitchen.
    We had some friends that served in Germany . They made a turnip slaw
    It was good.. Grate turnips and mix to taste mayo, salt, pepper, vinegar and some sugar. Mmmm.

    I grew up in western Kentucky, my mom was born in Grayson County but did live in Louisville as a child, too. That's as far east as she ever got, but I swear she cooks just like you do. And it's always been delicious.

    I grew up in Texas but we eat just about everything you make… Watching you make the stewed turnips made my mouth water! I haven’t had turnips in years. I’m going to make some this week. You have reminded me of a lot of foods I haven’t eaten in years so please keep making these videos. ❤

    The best thing I can see about your kitchen is you don’t have an automatic dishwasher. Ours was broken down for 4 months and I told my wife I wasn’t going to fix it. My brother came for visit and fixed it. The same old thing. The clean dishes are in their for 3 days before it gets emptied. Thanks bro.

    Thank you! Mrs. Georgie Webb, from our church, would bring stewed turnips to every pot luck. I would bring 7 layer salad (Pea Salad) and Cucumber and Onion salad. Since her passing, I have brought her stewed turnups; just as a reminder. God Bless and stay safe. EDIT: Fowl up a good cobbler with store bought Ice Cream- great.
