Michael’s back, with gravy! 👏🏼

I like the idea of infusing it with a sausage mixture. I frequently do pork roast with garlic inserted into the meat. This is next level.

There is no tomato-based BBQ sauce in this one. That is sort of a 'tomato gravy.' This meat-based gravy takes the BBQ a different way. The crusty, highly-flavored pork slices just like OUR familiar one.

I figured that the name 'Dragoo' was some sort of stage name until a customer from Georgia walked in this morning and filled in his paper work with the last name, 'Dragoo'. Well, I'll be....

looked incredible coming out of the pan, crazy that i just came home with a pork loin to cook for dinner!

As someone that loves "rustic" cooking, I love your channel. Gives me lots of great ideas. Never stop.

John, Michael, that was an amazing video. Michael, I am excited about your cookbook. I can't wait to read it. I have been working on a cookbook also, but I have been writing the family stories for each dish. We have knowledge of the recipes. I feel lucky to have it, which is why I wanted to write it down and share the stories with the recipes. Mine probably won't be published. Just copies for family. Thank you both again for all your hard work.

The way you let your guests just vibe with the camera and impart knowledge while being so attentive yourself is just so genuine, no fluff just real authentic historic cooking.

5:19 very exciting moment right here. Sounds amazingly delicious. ...And the "theres still time" comment was superb .

Always a treat to have Michael share with us with a recipe!

Crap, I gotta go buy a pork loin now! That looks amazing. Imagine if you added in some Grains of Paradise, Long Pepper, and a tiny bit of real cinnamon. Sunday dinner just got funky.

Heck yeah I can't wait for this recipe I'm a big barbecue guy looking forward to it!

i can watch this channel all day long every day it gives me such a relaxation and peace of mind its like a treat and it gives me that nostalgia for the old times vibe.

Discovered this channel during the lockdown. It just keeps getting better! Thank you to the wonderful crew behind the scenes!

Always good to see an episode made at the homestead.

One of the best channels on youtube. Perfect every time

This sounds and looks tasty! My family has been stuffing garlic cloves into pork roasts for many years. 👍

Just coming to the end of the six volume Francis J. Parkman series (Written in the 1880's free on Internet Archive) on the birth of Canada from its inception up to 1760 or so. They say Quebec will fall to the English. Almost (sadly as this ends the looong book series) to that chapter. As I knew zip nada nothing of it, (All new bekez I never heard of it) it's the one of the most thrilling adventure books I have ever read. Therefore discovering Townsends at this auspicious time is a godsend. Who knew the proto canucks and the soon to be Americans might have eaten so well? I had to go look up 'mushroom ketchup'. Well done. Well done sir!

Thanks for sharing this recipe,looks a great one. Michael's book sounds fascinating,I will keep an eye out for it.I do enjoy cooking up some of those historical foods from the 18- 19th century.Again thanks so much from Australia.

Looking forward to that cookbook!!! This looked amazing 😋

Greatly enjoy the outdoor Dutch oven cooking videos.

Thank you for making these wonderful videos!

One of my favorite KZread channels I'd love to see a collaboration with early American

Great hosts, a very pleasant view! Thanks!

Great book idea Michael!

In Poland we use brown flour to this day. We call it "zasmażka" (smażyć means to fry). it is usually used for soups. take some flour on hot pan and pour some of cooking soup or oil inside. i loved to eat it when i was kid.

What a scrumptious meal! And just to clarify, that's "Force Meat" NOT "Horse Meat"!! LOL

It certainly looks fantastic. Great episode.

I love this - as so many others have said - pure happiness to watch

Just found you. I've binge watched your teachings. Good stuff. ❤

Always a good episode when Michael is on!

Excuse me...that looks delicious! ☺️...We use the same technique of piercing the meet like leg of lamb or pork shoulder but insert garlic cloves! Always such a wonderful show! Thanks to all of you for everything you do!

That looks lovely and so simple to do!

Just don’t watch this channel if you are hungry. You will be out shooting something and roasting it in your backyard. Love it!!!

What a great video, well done.

I’d never do these recipes but they give me really good method ideas to try!

I’ll be on the lookout for some pork loin when I go to market next since I have bacon and sausage in the freezer. Easy to make this recipe for one to try out until we have a summer get together BBQ. Thanks, Michael and Jon! Nice video, Townsends’ Team.

I think even Gordon Ramsay would give this recipe his seal of approval.

cool technique! I'm gonna try that

That looks amazing.

That slow gravy pour was niiiiiiiice.

Thought we were getting another Michael twitty video but nonetheless still a great video! Thanks for sharing

This looks so delicious!

Speaking of lineage, nobody is going to convince me that Michael is not Benjamin Franklin's great-great-grandson

Oh dear God... that pouring of the gravy near the end..... I think I'm gonna need a minute to recover.

You used the force on this one!

I dare say I will definitely use this recipe it definitely gave me some new ideas on how to incorporate more fats into meats and whatnot for more flavor

Looks so good I need to try. That gravy too 😍😍😍

This is one of my favorite recipes so far! Makes my mouth water!

Im gathering the ingredients to try your cherry wine, love your recipes

I am quite happy to learn that there is a retail site! I have just had a quick look, and I’m sure there are some purchases in my future. I am especially interested in the book mentioned in this video. One of the main reasons that I am interested in the historical methods of life is because I often wonder how life really was for my ancestors. Another reason is that it is just plain fun. I am glad that there are folks that share the knowledge they have learned and put it within our reach. I don’t know if the title of the cookbook was mentioned. How will I know when it is available?

Looks delicious! With bacon, it would be celestial! For sides, I'd use well-seasoned turnip, collard, and mustard greens (seasoned with bacon again), mashed potatoes, and pickled beets. Finish with baked apples - or if at home, apple pie.

The force is strong with this one
