- I show and tell about our cast iron potjie, a pot popular in South Africa, and show you how I season cast iron with little muss, fuss, or smell.
For daily content check us out: / vikingpreparedness
You should come to South Africa and sit around a fire with a potjie slowly cooking over slow heat. You would really enjoy that I'm sure!
Great. Another type of cast iron to check out. Been baking bread in a smaller Dutch oven lately. Great taste and made with my own two hands ... not even a spoon much less a mixer. Cool on several different levels.
I sure do love my cast iron , I've been considering a dutch oven, but now that you have shared with us the potjie I couldn't resist it and then I had to order a Bruntmore #2 from Amazon. So cool , I ant wait to try it. Thank You Pastor Joe Fox!
I clean my cast iron with hot water, salt, and stainless links scrubber. Works great. Then heat up and oil for storage.
Can't cook without my cast iron cookwear. Mine are all handed down from our grandmothers. Love them. Pls cook in the pot you and Sister Kate should live stream it! God bless.
Nice, Really like the idea of using the grill for the seasoning of the Cast Iron. Keep is simple! Thank you for sharing.
Been using ours for 20 years best way for outdoor cooking.
The background sounds remind me of growing up on the farm, best times of my life. It's not noise to me. I like my cast iron and just got a new Lodge cast iron tripod with the heavy duty chain.
Excellent Video. 👍👍😎
Spring peepers....I LOVE that sound.....can't wait for it to arrive here.
I use flax seed oil....for seasoning....as I touch up in the house after cooking I use excess on paper towel to keep Osage cutting boards up to snuff.
Ron Hood RIP, one of my favorite quotes " the more you know, the less gear you need !
I like that potjie. Thanks for the info. Spring is slowly trying to come here to me on the Cumberland Plateau Tennessee. I am over anxious to get the garden going. I also preserve and raise most all of what I eat. I love watching you. A great Channel.
Thank you pastor. Thank you so much for your information on how to season cast iron I didn't know how.😀
I love all my irons, cook with nothing else!!!! Cute pot
I like that thing, I might have to get one. Thanks pastor Joe!
I love potjie!!!!! In my family I'm in charge to cook it. FYI: BEST DUTY is a really good brand, our no 2 has lasted 20 plus years.
First time I saw someone mentioning potjie outside South Africa
I truly love cast iron. Reminds me of my youth working one season on a shrimp boat. The captain and I the deck hand. I had to cook as well. First time I fried fresh shrimp ( oh that’s so delicious). Well after dinner I had to wash the dishes. I proceeded to apply damn to the cast iron skillet. Well I was lucky all the cast iron skillets as well as the anchor were not tied to my legs and thrown overboard 😂😂😂. No but I learned a life lesson in how not to clean cast iron!!!!
First season I do is always saffron oil. It has a high burn point. Good stuff, thanks Pastor.
Never bought a new one before, cast iron. Thanks PJF
My husband bought me a Sun Oven and I absolutely love it. we've used it for a year even on a very cold day if the Sun is out you can use it
Great find! Veggie oil and sometimes corn oil are good. I season in the oven regularly (don’t do much longer than the smoke, about an hour). I’ve restored a number of pans.
Sound advice on cast iron care.
in portugal we still have them, used to cook soup , boiled meals or stew, in open fire, outside or inside open fireplaces, normaly in the extra kitchen that as a brick oven, fireplace, cast iron stove...so cool...you can make marvellous tasty food with that " panela de ferro de 3 pernas" :-)
Bless you. My prayers are with you and your family and for your continued health and success.
Hey PJ I have 2 of the copper skillets for over a year now I use the quite often. The larger 10 inch one for whatever reason is no longer a nonstick skillet. The smaller 8 inch is beginning to do the same with foods sticking to it in little spots in it. Still use em but need a touch of oil in them now to cook without foods sticking.
great way ....using your grill....clever.
Great video pastor Joe that looks really cool
Lol( set it and forget it ! ) that's perfect I'm going to check that out too !
Also thanks for the heads up on the "Stanley French press" it works great !☺
PJF on Patreon...Best.03 a day I have ever spent, lots of really helpful info :D
It might sound silly but I've been somewhat intimidated by new/ un seasoned cast iron. The pieces that we use have been around longer than I have. Very good care has made them last and I expect to be able to give them to my daughter some day. I never thought to season on the grill, it certainly eliminates the smoky house issue. I'm thinking that I might splurge on the new, larger Dutch oven that I have been eyeing for camping trips. Thank you for sharing this Pastor.
Cool, i'd love to have one of those pots.
If you look up Ting you will see a bronze Chinese version of this they made more than 5000 years ago. I have seen them in the museum. Pretty cool!
Got interested and started using cast Iron in Boy scouts been using them close to 20 odd years cooks up a great steak
Potjie, pretty cool
I just ordered skillet from China mart! God bless you and yours!
Bacon grease works well too. 🥓 🥓 🥓😀MLS
Hahaha Bacon works for everything even a broken heart
Not if you keep Torah like PJF.
@@MI_Prepper My Uncle told me a ryhme . Too long to state. However, go too town. MLS 💗
Guess Home Skillet got tired of those noisy birds, lol.
Great video PJF! I've seen these Potjies at the Amish store we go to and wondered if they were GTG. Thanks!
Good day sir.. I am from South Africa and Love how you pronounced potjie its exactly right!! BTW the food you make In it is called potjiekos.. Not stew.. 😊
Also the rings, around the pot.. And Best Duty is a well name brand here in SA all us Afrikaners use it.. Is to be 'n guide for how many people you want to cook The number of rings on your potjie pot multiplied by the size of the pot equals the number of servings it can make. For example, a size 3 pot has 4 rings on the outside, therefore it can hold up to 12 servings of your favourite, homemade potjie!
Enjoy!
You made it work!!
Lard is old school way of seasoning, so that's what I use. Thanks for vid.
Hey Pastor Joe...
I like the magazine but at almost ten bucks an issue,
being on a fixed income I can’t justify the expense...
Thanks for sharing this.
Have a great day and be blessed.
My wife puts our cast iron in the camp fire and lets it get
red hot.
Then she allows it to cool and wipes it down with olive oil
and stores it away until needed.
Once it starts to loose its non-stick quality, she does it all
over again.
Ah, potjiekos. Good stuff! Takes me back...
Nothing beats a good potjie pot full of food! Good to know you're on the potjie bandwagon!
I love cast iron, I had some in my past life, lol. Thanks for the nice video, I've never heard of that one. Y'all take care and YHVH bless brother.
If you add a bit of salt to your oil it helps the seasoned cure. Makes a great cooking surface.
I have my own cast iron plus the cast iron that belonged to my Mom and grand Mother. I also have the cast iron pan that my Great grand mother owned thats well over 100 years old and is bigger and heavier than any other cast that I own. Cooks better in my view. I was given a red copper pan as a gag gift from my brother. I love it use it all the time.
It’s my first time running into this channel pastor. I like what u do. I’m a man of faith also. Your a smart man. I been having a lot thoughts about Awareness, and how to react Towards a Collapse. But I’m not sure how to perform when these Actions happen or what should I do. But I’m learning how to prepare. God bless you . Hope to have your feedback. ✊🏼
Thumbs up from South Africa!
Buy a donkey! :)
Hahaaa - you speak my language :-)@@VikingPreparedness
Potjie kos is the best with some pot bread from an oven. Sorry seeing I'm South African Dutch I should say dutch oven. Hehe
Your spring weather makes me jealous. Its snowing here today, with 2 feet on the ground.
you can use soap and water to clean them. just stick on stove to dry out right after washing. When all the water is gone from heat, let cool a bit and wipe with oil like you showed
Great informative video😁
Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us 👍🏻😎
Atb to you my friend
I got those copper pans on clearance after watching you talk about it
Yep
That's Awsome PJ..
that is a very cool pot, nice timely find of that mag by your wife
Backwoodsman Magazine is also very much worth subscribing to.
Potjie is my new favorite word
Set it and forget lol love it
Spring there already, it was -3 here today when I got up, I need to move. LOL
The copper pan Yea! I got me and the wife one of those, and we've been using it for 3 months now and I will have to be honest with you, it's pretty sweet for a 10 $ pan, and were still alive, If we die we'll let you know.
GOT ONE OF YOUR COPPER PANS . WORKS GREAT STILL HASN'T KILLED ME.
What kind of copper pan? Brand name? Link? I've been looking in local stores and nothing actually made with copper cooking surface.
Good video Pastor Joe. Thanks for all the videos you put out. Question: I know you had PRK done, but I see you with glasses quite often. Did it only serve for near or far sighted, but not both?
Hunger is proof of life. Great vid!
I love hearing the animals. Have a truck load of cast iron. We have waist deep snow here.
I have cast iron, for prepping mostly, but have had a stroke so every day use only using one hand they are to heavy.
we have about 50 pieces of cast iron. new to real old 1700's gate marked. i saw these pots a number of months ago. let us know what you think. i showed the wife when i came across them. she was skeptical.
My family only seasons with lard or bacon grease, 300° preheated oven for 1 hour, upside down, we let it cool to warm and repeat it 2 times, sometimes more, put foil under it for the drippings. To me, the food tastes better with a lard or bacon grease season.
Thats how my mom did it.
There is nothing like well seasoned cast iron.
Lekker!
Nice OA hat!
Sounds of the farm.......😁👍. Thought about getting some of those hens just to piss off my liberal neighbors and clean up my backyard. I always enjoyed the sounds they make. Lol thanks for the info on the pot , will look into them and see if we want to try one out👌.
Same with the cast iron cooking stuff, AKA; cookware. LOL the absolute best! and one of those copper nonstick pans as well! Hahahaa God bless Preacher!
The next time my wife starts asking again for guineas, I’m going to make her watch this.
Nice video.....how far from T do you live?
It's probably just my imagination but it seems like food tastes better when it comes from a cast iron skillet or Dutch oven.
GREAT Video, Pastor Joe! RLTW!
Cast iron ! 😃
My husband won’t let me do Patreon.. he’s not even awake. Anyway thanks for the video. I’m going to make a sun oven. Trying to get the stuff to make it. (I want to make one that will last a while) 😊
Hi from Australia just became a Sub. I love the Chanel grate content so mutch information and things to think about so little time. In Australia we call that a camp oven. I use mine just for fun. Roast lamb/ beef/pork and vegetables yum can't beat it.... PS your welcome hear ..... Hay what is about 100. Acres of land worth in your area ..Ozarks please answer this question. Have a nice day and god bless
Amazon is good
Mine got rust spots. 🤦🏻♀️ is it salvageable?
Yes it is.. Use some metal wire to scrub out the rust wash it then do what Pastor did to reseason it
Hardy Loubser oh yayyy! Thank you so so much!! Will do! I can’t tell u how happy that makes me lol
Great video.... RLTW
You should put your preacher robe on
Nice!!!! #1 Rule for cooking with a potjie... do not stir the pot!
When I used one of these people kept teasing me, saying things like "look at the pudgy with the potjie..."
4 bar-b-q tips follow the,"barbeque pit boys".shure theirs alot of grill masters out there but these guys are rugged".🦐
"Improvise, adapt, and overcome!" OOPS! Wrong group! ;-)
I use tin foil crumbled up. Gets the tough stains out... after using my pans they always get an oil bath.
I need all my tin foil for my hats.
What's for dinner? Guinea in a Potjie???
Pastor did you earn that tab? Ex 1/75 RGR BN
What do you think?
@@VikingPreparedness sua sponte
RLTW
He earned an even cooler one too...
i read an article or video where soviet and European scientist say the new madrid fault gonna shake. They r suppose to be the best. Guinea should be confined at least 4 months before letting them out in the day and then confine at night.
Wrong. This is not our first rodeo
@@VikingPreparednessI didn't imply it was. I did extensive research on guinea due to my nature to take research to an extreme. I have had mine for several years now. I am glad u have guinea. They are the best watch dogs ever and I recommend them to everyone. They don't eat their eggs and I pickle their eggs and enjoy them a lot. I am starting on planting more fruit and nut trees and berry bushes but I feel I need a greenhouse to grow food year around. A lot of work but I am determined to make it happen. I miss your youtube videos and glad u are posting more often here. Solar storms are coming our way and more quakes around us.
Will learn to appreciate your guineas they're very smart but very dumbfounded for the things they do around their pens things but they will always come home to where they've been born and raised and they will let you know when there's different people come around by the different calls they do especially if they're not you so they expect you to respond to them they know your voice... when I get off work I spend a little bit of time with him all the time for the last five years and I can tell you I know a lot of their different calls when hawks come by or they see something in the air they see a snake or a cat or a different person with an animal or very specific of the sounds they make just like chickens. Chicken's are even more specific...
Wait, What.. Poitjie.. What... I'm there. My wife makes a mean Poitjie
To all the "You're gonna die" comments, well, we are all going to die. The real concern should be, how are we going to live?
What happened to the Sabbath videos...l don't recieve them anymore...
Shofar mountain channel
i am a silversmith you should not ware copper plated as a braclet that has got to plated i wouldnt use them
Overcome improvise remove the grate .
its a cast iron pot with legs on it, wtshtf, you wont have charcoal and vegetable oil from the grocery store, and be able to order from Amazon Lol.
Exactly. Which is why I took care of it now. And I WILL have veg oil...
Vegetable oil is no good pastor. Go with lard, butter, or anything but vegatable oil....
Stranded 360 we always use butter, but then the wife is addicted to butter.
It'll never work!!! lol :D
