What a wonderful video Troy ! I've heard so many good things about Mama Jean in so many of your videos, and it's an honor to finally "meet" her and learn about your family history. She's a real gem, and I think it's safe to say through your videos, there's a little bit of Mama Jean in thousands of kitchens all over the world. Thanks for sharing this Troy, and cheers and Happy Birthday to Mama Jean !

"When you hit the floor in the morning you're responsible for what you do!" AMEN!!! Momma Jean!! I love it

Why I'm I smiling throughout this whole video...she is a blessing. She's from North Carolina, my kind of gal.

Mama Jean is so precious. What a women.!! I am watching this almost 2 years later and I am so touched by her view on life. T'Roy how blessed you and your family are to have this beautiful women in your lives and to be there to Celebrate her 93rd birthday. God bless you and your family. Thanks for sharing this heart felt time with your Grandma.😊❤✝️🙏

I love mama Gene. At 93 years old this lady has such cognitive clarity and her 90 plus mobility is putting my 53 to shame.

I hope Mama Jean had a wonderful 93rd Birthday. What a special lady she is. Thank you Mama Jean for showing us young folks how to make a good southern dish. This will be breakfast in my house this morning. Loved hearing her stories at the end I could listen to her stories forever.. You are one lucky guy to be blessed with such a wonderful Grandma. Much love from South Carolina

No words can describe how important family is! If a picture is worth a thousand words then think how many frames(pictures) are in this video and you are starting to edge up on enough words. My grandma is almost 90 and went through the Great Depression, etc, etc, I appreciate this video so much T-Roy, best you have ever made. God and Family is what makes America great!!!

She is a beautiful woman and has such a beautiful spirit as well... Thank you T-Roy "Troy" and Thank you Very much Mama Jean for your recipe. Happy belated Birthday to you

I love this video! Family is everything and she is a gem 💎

This wonderful lady is sharp as a razor and is going to live another 93 years no problem

Troy, what a wonderful video and a fine tribute to your grandmother Mama Jean! I hated to see the video end! Mama Jean is as sharp as a tack and what a special privilege to still have her around at 93 and to still be able to hear her sharing her experiences of the past. This video will make a great keepsake for you and the rest of the family for years to come when the ones we love are no longer physically here but remain only in our hearts and minds. The tomato gravy and biscuits remind me of my grandmother Thelma, born and raised in NC, who passed in 1983. I can still see her in the kitchen making homemade biscuits and Tomato or Red-eye gravy, and if I close my eyes and concentrate hard enough, I can smell that special smell of her kitchen. I made a video of her before she passed and am so glad I did:-) I could say more but I don't want my comment to be too lenghtly. Thank you so much for taking the time to share this special moment with us. It was a privilege and an honor to meet Mama Jean. Your style, openness, and willingness to invite us into your personal life as well as your cooking is what makes you so endearing to your supporters. God bless you and yours my friend!

She's a wealth of knowledge and tells it like it is. I am truly blessed to still have her in my life. Heck, I'm betting she'll make it to 100!!!! I'm happy that we could bring back some fond memories of your grandma Thelma. The older generation sure knew how to cook some fine meals. I think the secret is that they put a lot of love into their cooking and I try to do that as I learned from Mama Jean. Anyone can follow a recipe, but without you putting love into the cook, it just doesn't turn out the same. Much love to you brother!!! I appreciate you watching!

My mother was from Alabama an often made a tomato gravy that was red colored an she put it over rice for breakfast for us. Does anyone have an Alabama recipe for tomato gravy. Mom has been gone 25 years an never made a written recipe.

Loved the video. I had a grandmother named Mama Jean. She cooked the old style. Wish she had taken time to show me how to cook like that. My mom a little. But they didn't have the patience. Dad was mechanically inclined but was same way. Envy folks like you Troy.

AWE! So sweet! Mama Jean! That gravy looks GOOD!!!!

Troy, I've watched this at least 10 times. I'm 48 and lost my Grammy 6 years ago at age 93, and she was the best cook ever too. I grew up in Washington state, and she lived in Oregon, but was originally from Kinder, LA. My husband and I were stationed at Barksdale, LA, our son is at Ft. Polk, LA and this brings me so much joy. I love you have this on video to cherish forever.

MamaJean reminds me of my Granny Pat. Her name was Beatrice but we called her Pat. Her tomato gravy and biscuits was to die for. By far my favorite meal.

AWESOME, AWESOME, AWESOME!!!! My dad also worked for the railroad so we did not live very close to my grandparents. My grandparents on my mom's side lived in West TX and my grandparents on my dad's side lived in SW La. One grandmother, W Tx one, made the best chili I have ever put in my mouth and my other grandmother made outrageously tasting smothered fried chicken. I have tried to duplicate their cooking with no success. They were like your Mama Jean and never measured anything. If you asked them how they made something they would just say "Oh, some of this, a little of that, a pinch of that". God bless you Troy.
