Here is something that popped into my head the 4 F's " FAITH , FAMILY , FREINDS AND FOOD ! " couldn't be better than that !

If this man doesn't make you want to be a better American, than I don't know what will... I was truly entranced by his story telling. His military recollection is spot on. As a former Infantryman myself, (Desert Storm Vet) I get the things that he says. His revelation to God is just...inspiring. "The Lord knows I'm thinkheaded." What an amazing family story. Very well produced. God is good.

Living the American dream thru hard work and determination. I needed to watch this. Very inspiring. 46 years old and I’m at work right now while my family is at our Church family camp weekend. Time to restructure a few things and start living my own Canadian dream and be with my family more. Thanks guys.

This is our family now. We are 5 years into a mobile poultry processing business. I have learned so much about myself, my family, and my employees. Amazing story that I'm sharing with my family.

Y’all need to make a series on the history of your family’s brands. It’s 0215 here in Germany and I have to wake up in 5 hrs to get ready for church. I was glued to this entire video. Not sure how awake I’ll be at church, but I thoroughly enjoyed watching ever second of this video. I subscribed in the late spring of last year while waiting to be cleared to move to Germany for the USAF and have enjoyed watching y’all teach how to butcher animals and the different cuts and ideas of cooking meats. I definitely have been inspired by watching your videos here on KZread. Keep up the good work and I hope to come check out the store when I move back to the states.

I watched from beginning to end and am amazed at what your family has accomplished. Your dad’s background story is very similar to my dad who fought as a south Vietnamese swift boat captain. During times of extreme hardships they both were brought closer to their faith in god and has instilled that onto all their children.

Well said, Ron!

Thank you for your background and history. I understand the hard work and devotion, I was 55 when I started my business two years ago. I also thank God everyday for my blessings. I have run into the same issue with getting a steer processed this year. I took what I could get and l had a cold hanging weight of 576 pounds according to the butcher. I ask for very minimum burger and ended up with 165 pounds of steaks and misc cutts and 220 pounds of burger. So with that said I will be using your video next fall to process my own beef. Im going to try and get a hanging cooler built over the summer. Because I am a loyal watcher of your videos and I tell everyone to watch them, I now think a couple of my buddies are willing to try processing their own beef. You guys are an inspiration to me and a lot of my friends. Keep up the good work and God bless you all.

Great story Shawn, Seth, and Scott. Your father is an amazing man that I could sit and listen to his stories for hours. Having met all three of you in person because I live locally, your videos don't show how genuine you you three are. Glad to be a customer of Whitefeather Meats and the Bearded Butcher's Blends and Sauce's.

What a wonderful video. The whole thing could have been a Netflix documentary. Your father's history, well... you're whole history is inspiring. This is why people love watching your videos. Very well done!

My Grandfather was Clarence Perkins from South of Barnesville....who also farmed and worked construction and was also a descendant of Reuben. Especially seeing the young Fred picture....I'll guarantee we're related. I was born and raised in Bethesda on a dairy farm....and we also had stray voltage in the 80's.

So dang nice to see REAL MEN of our blessed country! Your family is awesome. May the LORD continue to bless Y'all

I am only 12 min in and my allergies are kicking in. this is why we are Americans. I will always remember the sacrifices!

This was so cool to watch. The true history of the bearded butchers.

I have to confess, I really started watching with the intention of skipping forward to the more interesting segments. But once it started I got locked in and couldn’t make myself do it. I watched every minute. Your dads an amazing man with an extraordinary background. It is extremely rare to find a family that is as tight knot as yours and I’m sure it is so wonderful especially during Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. I do have a question also. As I was listening I couldn’t help but wonder if y’all have ever tried Bison bacon? I just thought about it when you were saying how good the taste of bison was. I’m sure it would probably cover a plate but it would probably be delicious. By the way, my wife mentioned 3 or 4 times, “whatever you’re watching must be interesting!”. Thanks guys for making my day.

Thank you for sharing this. Loved hearing old heads (your dad) talk about the old days. Also big big thanks to you all for the instructional videos. I watched a few channels when I started hunting 2 years ago but your super in depth butcher videos helped me basically self teach (with a little guidance from a friend) myself how to completely butcher my kills. I have never brought a kill to a butcher still to this day.

Great story guys. I also like the instruction videos you do. Keep them coming thank you for sharing your knowledge.

I grew up in Marshallville Ohio and lived just up the street from The Marshallville Meat Market and can really understand where you come from about how hard it is to be a butcher. I used to see the Tucker boys drag butt at the end of the day. Glad I stayed in the concrete and masonry trade becuse I couldn't of did the long hard days of butchering. Just doing my own hogs,deer and elk is more than I can handle and this year I plan on doing my own chickens from chick's to harvest. I sure could use any tips Y'all have on chicken butchering of about30 chickens a year. Keep up the amazing work and God bless you all. P.S. thank your father for his service for me and my wife.

I just watched this video of this great American family. The story of the brothers father being wounded in an ambush in Vietnam was so vivid and really touched me because my older brother was killed in an ambush in Nam almost exactly the same way and by the stupidity of a inexperienced Marine Corps lieutenant who had no sense . So as I watched I couldn’t help but reflect on those years and the fact he was wounded in his ninth month of his tour as was my brother KIA in his ninth and he too was a hardcore biker as well. Rick, his name didn’t make it but thank goodness the father of these great men survived and built this awesome business with his sons and his faith.
