Also…my grandmother and great grandmother both lived to be in their nineties and they both cooked like you do. I think the difference between how some people eat today and how they ate had more to do with the quality of food than the actual sugar and fat. They grew their own food and there just weren’t as many additives back then for the things they bought. You and Mr. Brown have created this same situation because you have quality controlled your food by either growing it or by careful buying of the things you don’t grow. Mamaw cooked big meals but the meat was more of a minor note compared to all of the vegetables. Of course the vegetables were delicious because she cooked them with bacon grease and added sugar at times for seasoning but if your meals are heavy on the vegetables those ingredients become minor notes as well. Of course there was always corn bread but it wasn’t the centerpiece of the meal either. The meal you just cooked had three vegetables so it wasn’t like you were carb loading. I’m very sorry to hear that some comments have been less than kind. Your channel is such a lovely place to land…full of love and family. Keep doing what you’re doing you’re providing a wonderful form of entertainment amidst an ocean of unpredictability and worry that our world has become. Many thanks to both you and Mr. Brown.

Even if they don't internally realize how miserable they are. They only know how to criticize. I think it is a power trip for haters and trolls. trying to pick around for weak spots to tear someone down. It helps them to feel as if they are clever. Hate nearly destroyed me in the past.

This afternoon, i was feeling the cold in my bones and felt kind of lonesome and discouraged, but I tuned in to you and got a blanket, bundled up, got some hot coffee and sat in your kitchen as you made supper.It really gave me a lift, I got warmed up too and feel better.I enjoyed the mayo cake recipe, and I think i will add some instant coffee when i make it. My best friends Mother used to make something similar for us “girls” when we visited.. She called it her “Wacky” cake, and mixed it all up right in the baking pan. It will be dark here in a few minutes, another cold cold night ahead. Please , you and Mr. Brown stay safe on those icy roads. Thank you for being there for me tonight.💕🙏🙏🙏🙏

Ms Lori, I love spending time with you. You and Mr. Brown are wonderful and like family. Your down to earth, honest and a blessing. For goodness sake anyone with half a brain should be able to figure out you don't cook up big meals everyday, you both work everyday plus all you do on your homestead is amazing. I totally understand being so tired and worn out at end of day, and being very satisfied with a bowl of cereal or a fried egg sandwich. Bless you both, would love to share a cuppa Joe with you on the porch and help you around the garden. Take care and God Bless, always.

Hello Mrs Laurie, I started watching some of your cooking videos a few weeks back when I was looking for a good biscuit recipe. I personally love the one I tried and that got me to subscribe. I strongly believe in " if you have nothing nice to say say nothing at all!" people who make nasty comments do not deserve your time and energy nor an explanation of you are! at the end of the day GOD gave us all the freedom to choose how we live and it is only to him we owe and explanation! I Love your recipes!!!

Follow up to my earlier comment: I went back and looked at several of your tutorials. Now I love Mr. Brown. And you do such a great job demonstrating step by step how to assemble, cook and serve those yummy looking foods. Great thanks.

Growing your own food and preserving it - you are so much healthier, on so many levels, than most people I know. I am inspired. Thanks for sharing a bit of your evening with all of us.

Miss Lori you’re the best cook!, Watching you prepare meals is so relaxing to me. I feel like I’m sitting in your home watching you cook like I was in my friends house having a conversation. You’re such a sweet and genuinely humble and gracious woman. You always inspire me to be a better cook Miss Lori! ❤️🌻 blessings to you and Mr. Brown.

Thank you Miss Lori for letting us visit in your wonderful kitchen as you’re cooking dinner. My grandparents lived in southern Indiana and had 12 kids.They weren’t there at the same time but were scattered around the U.S. When we got together for meals, there was a whole lot of love and home grown food. Thank you for your cooking tips and for the recipe for the chocolate Mayo cake. It all looked so good!

For Christmas dinner, my Mother-in-law always cooked pork chops and cabbage. She browned the pork chops first, then covered it with the chopped cabbage, onions, diced apples , caraway seeds and brown sugar. Sometimes she cooked it all together on the stove top, and sometimes she would bake it in a covered dish in the oven. I've even tossed it in my crock pot. Along with the pork chops and cooked cabbage we always had mashed potatoes. That yummy sweet cooked cabbage was poured over the mashed potatoes. Yummy!

I really loved this casual cooking video! I felt like I was a friend sitting at your counter while you cooked dinner. Everything looked delis.

A little bit of sugar takes any bitterness out of the vegetables. Mama always put a tiny bit of sugar in greens, green beans and a lot of vegetables. And to the lard haters there is no pie crust like one made with lard. 😊 And the nice part of being empty nesters is being able to settle for cereal or a sandwich if you want after so many years of cooking for kids and a growing family. It's one of the perks of getting older together 👍

I just enjoy everything you cook and every story you tell. I believe the way you two interact and how you talk to each other is priceless. The respect is tangible.

Ms. Lorie you shouldn’t have to explain yourself or your way of eating to anyone!! If they don’t like it, they can move on and find a different channel to watch. Personally I love watching you make a meal and it inspires me to make a delicious and hearty meal just like that. I don’t think there is anything wrong at all with your meal I’d be pleased and feel darn blessed to have such a terrific meal on my dinner table. May God bless you and keep your table and pantry forever stocked . Thank you for sharing your kitchen and how you make what you do. I thoroughly enjoyed it!!! 🥰🇨🇦❤️

Ms. Lori, you are such a sweet lady. You make cooking look so easy. You seem like a “ natural “ at it. You have a way of making us feel like we are in the kitchen chatting with you as you cook the delicious variety of food. The Mayonnaise cake brings back sweet memories from years ago. There’s NO DOUBT that GOD brought you & Mr. Brown together years ago. The world would be so much better if more people shared GOD’S LOVE, as you two. Your love,& contentment is such an example for all of us. May GOD continue to BLESS you both in HIS MIGHTY WAY 🙏🏼♥️. I am looking forward to your next video. Love ♥️from an old timer 🌹

Thank you so much

Those people with the rude comments are not stopping to realize, you grow much of what you eat and preserve, that makes a difference right from the beginning as you follow your recipes to taste. I honestly watch your show and copy many recipes and I feel very healthy. We all don’t follow the same diet, nor can well afford all those keto type diets but, to me, this is cooking tasty and healthy. You chose your food but to me, this is back to my childhood, we ate foods that kept us healthy and active, none or very few junk foods, we ate fruits. So what is better than this?

You sure have a kitchen full of antiques! Love them.......Why would there be any haters. Because of the southern accent. That is GOOD southern food. Reminds me of my mothers cooking. We lived in Birmingham, Alabama till I was 8 years. Then moved north, but she continued to cook the southern way. I rememeber her saving bacon grease - my dad loved the FRIED foods! Too much of it not good for you though. Mom was a terrific cook! She could make pies that would win prizes! Made everything from scratch, and so perfectly. Canned in the fall everything there is to can. She was a very hard worker. There were 6 in our family. Love fried cabbage too - in fact love cabbage fixed any way. Going to put some in my soup today. Sounds like you people live in the Ozarks area. How beautiful it is! We were there in our travels when I married. Camped in a private front yard campground!

Having a way to heat your home and cook during ice storms is such a blessing! My mom and I were just talking about the "Freeze of '83" today. My grandmother lived next door and we had to stay with her for THREE WEEKS because we were iced in with no electricity and she had a gas heater and we didn't. There were six of us in the house with one bathroom and two bedrooms, almost unthinkable today! LOL. We had to heat water on the stove for baths and use kerosene lamps for light. Didn't think anything of it at the time, I'm sure she was ready to be rid of us by the time it thawed out though, ha ha ha!

It’s so wonderful to spend time with you!!! It’s like being family sitting down with a cuppa and conversation!!!

My paternal grandmother, would fry potatoes and onions every day for lunch. It didn't matter if she was serving something like a sandwich or something else, she always had potatoes and onions on the table for lunch. To this day, I love, love, love, potatoes and onions fried together.

Just love hanging with you and Mr. Brown, just good country friends. I love rendering out my own lard and saving my bacon drippings for cooking, just makes your food taste even better. Sending love and hugs from Tennessee ❤️🤗

Oh my! This is what I cook when we are lonesome for my Mother and Father-in-law (who both passed). Thank the Lord, we learned from them how to cook like this! You are so right, it's not something we do every day, but now and then we get a "hankerin'" for this good ole southern comfort food and when it happens, nothing else will do! If it's summer, we also slice tomatoes and raw onions. If we could open a vintage restaurant and serve food JUST LIKE THIS we wouldn't be able to fit the people in the place! We were slam full when we watched your video today and we both had watering mouths and were "homesick" for the parents. When the kids were growing up, we also added either fried potatoes or creamed/mashed potatoes, too. (We had a lot to feed!) We also love okra in our gumbo and every way. This mayo cake recipe is one of my favorites since I was very young, too. You can't beat it! If I wasn't so tired from canning meat today, I would probably go in the kitchen and make it right now. LOL! Maybe tomorrow...

I love watching you two. I always feel like I'm sitting around listening to dear friends when you are both on. Thank you for allowing us into your home!

I lost my Grandma when I was young, and their fore her recipe’s. Watching you cook and seeing so many foods my grandma made brings joy to my heart. With your recipes it’s like having a piece of my grandma back. Thank you for sharing and caring, bless you and your family.

I absolutely love you Miss Lori and Mr. Brown. You are both so loving and down to earth. I’m 63, retired now and love your channel because you live such a peaceful, my way of life. Thank You for opening up your home with such love.💝💝💝💝

Thank you so much!!! It’s nice to know that I’m not the only one who has a bowl of cereal for supper once in awhile or an egg sandwich. I love all of your videos. God bless you , Mr. Brown and your channel. Thank you for sharing your supper idea!!!

Thanks for inviting us over for a "visit". Your meal looks delicious. I'm in the North (Vermont), and my mother used to make a sweet & sour cabbage dish very much like what you made but it had a splash of vinegar in it. She also used bacon grease for cooking, which I stopped using years ago to be more "health conscious", so I mainly used vegetable oils. However, as I've watched you-tube videos from Southern folks, it seems like cooking with both bacon grease and lard as ingredients is really standard. So...I have started keeping bacon grease like my mother did and bought my very first lard yesterday! I won't go crazy with these, but I think they'll be important to get authentic results with some of the Southern recipes I hope to try. I can see where folks used to cooking with just vegetable oils might get anxious about the animal fats, but hope nobody was too unkind in their comments. Please don't let them spoil the enjoyment you're getting (& giving) sharing your traditional cooking with us. I'm sure there are lots of you tube stations for folks who don't cook with animal fats they can tune into, so please don't start feeling self conscious about cooking your traditional home style foods. God bless you & Mr. Brown

I'm new to your channel. I love you guys and the stories while you are in the kitchen, or at the table, just reminds me of how much I appreciate the years of my Mother teaching me how to cook and bake and also cleaning up as well. I'm one of seven children and am the oldest daughter of six girls. My brother is the oldest. Your Words R helping me reach the strength to do more. My mom passed away a year and a half ago. Loss very difficult for us all.

So honored to share this time in your kitchen and your dinner table with you very comforting thank you so much

I enjoy the "cooking with you" type videos. Just like visiting with a friend while making supper. Blessings to you💞..

Yes please share your recipe for iced coffee. 💕 Love watching you cook. Nothing is as tasty and satisfying as country cooking.

I love that cake. Also, you make your chocolate icing the same way I do. You can't find a better one I don't think. I also like the hot fudge icing on that cake. I hope you all don't get any damage from the sleet and weather. You never know what to expect anymore from Mother Nature. She changes so much. That supper looked delicious also. Have a great week! Be safe, stay well and God bless.

Thanks for sharing these old ways of southern cooking~ I loved them,too. I’ve been baking the Mayonnaise cake for sixty years ~( I prefer Miracle Whip) we loved/love it! I never put chocolate frosting on it,but we love the silky cooked milk frosting! Cook milk and flour until pasty, then chill in fridge till cold. Then put the cold mixture in mixing bowl,add sugar and vanilla and whip it until it is super silky. Be sure the cake is cold when you frost it. Sorry I’m unable to remember at this minute and can’t get to my old recipes~ I’m 78 and cared for by Hospice. I’m sure someone has the recipe handy. We called it boiled milk silky frosting in our house! God Bless you both!

Loved hanging with you this evening. Delicious supper Ms Lori! I could almost smell the aromas. I was raised not too far North of you all in Missouri.

My parents gardened and canned and knew how to feed us that way. I got away from it and I have a som who cans and you remind me of why I need to get back to my roots. Love you both because you are real and love the Lord. Good for everything you do and you can help me get back to my roots❤️🙏❤️

I just LOVE your videos! ❤️ I never learned to cook growing up. My mom did it all, so I’m sorry to say I never learned to enjoy cooking. It seems like it’s better learned in community. My former step-mom-in-law taught me some basic canning skills years ago. That was so much fun. We canned jams, pickles and tomatoes. I still enjoy putting food up (I also dehydrate.) Cooking meals has always been a challenge for me, but I feel like I’m learning so much from you. I’m a Northern city girl with a country heart. And I can’t wait to try your fried cabbage! I just bought a cabbage the other day, so the timing is perfect. The only problem I have with your channel Miss Lori, is I have a VERY hard time turning it off! 😁😍 Even my husband likes your channel!

I agree with you, I love this channel and enjoy listening to Lori. She is a true Southern lady. My husband and I have been fortunate enough to travel across the USA as well as foreign countries. People always ask us to talk so they can listen to our Southern accent. Foreigners have described our accent as akin to singing, What many people do not realize is Southern accents vary from place to place. If you enjoy Mrs. Lori, I believe you will enjoy “Cooking with Brenda Gantt.” Brenda lives in south Alabama on the Florida-Alabama state line. She has a large repertoire of Southern recipes and operates a bed and breakfast. At the request of some friends during the pandemic, she made biscuits and posted the video on Facebook. She was a huge hit, and in little more than a year, she has over 2,500,000 followers. She is also on KZread. There are two channels that I watch at least once a day-Mrs. Lori and Mrs. Brenda.

Hello Miss Lori, I realize that I am watching this month's after it's been made but I feel compelled to comment. You and Mr. Brown are truly lovely, genuine people. I lost my husband in February of this year and watching you two together and seeing the love you have for each other and your lifestyle, it warms my heart and makes me miss my husband so much!

We always have sweet tea, but 50 years ago I figured out it was the sugar in it tearing up my stomach. I switched to sweet n low and it doesn't have a weird taste like most artificial sweeteners. I steep about 4-5 Lipton or Newman's organic tea bags in hot water, not boiled, for 10 minutes or so. I pour it into a gallon tea jar with a spigot, add 27 quick shakes of sweet n low from a shaker with small hole on top, then add filtered water and keep in the fridge.

My mama was raised on a farm, and my grandma, who ate white bread with every meal, lived to be 97!!!🙏❤️

Just gotta say as a kid growing up in Central Louisiana, and a mom from Texas, we ate like this every night. But we called the bread you made Hot Water Cornbread. The okra was a new trick for me how you added the hush puppy mix, gotta try that we had it plain pan fried or as okra and tomatoes. But your sooo right, that cornbread is delicious with beans, soups and definitely cabbage. Can't wait to make the cake! Thanks so much and God bless ya'll.

It's only taken us 30 years to realize that lard is better than most oils.

I was born and raised in Southwest Arkansas . My family farmed and then eventually started planting a huge garden and we began selling all the produce to the public . It was a lot of work but taught me a lot. I love that I found your channel because it brings back a lot of memories. Thanks for sharing .

Love you Miss Lori ❤️ P.S. Everything you cooked was healthy. It wouldn't have been if you used seed oils in stead of animal fats. You fed your brains and your stomachs! Thank you for sharing the joy, I'd be mad if we didn't get to see you eat it! Next best thing to having a place at your table!

Ms.Lori, I love your cooking videos. I feel like I'm in the kitchen with you. I've made a few of your recipes, and they never disappoint. I also love your conversations with Mr Brown ❤️ You know you're tired when a bowl of cereal is dinner 🤣 been there myself, and the cereal seems like it taste better than at breakfast. Take care, always looking forward to your videos!

Thank you

We love to fry up sausage, whole or bulk, remove from pan, add a little butter and fry the cabbage in the drippings. One of our favorite meals. Great with mashed potatoes!

Miss Lori I love watching you cook and listening to you. You remind me of home. All my family's passed and gone I'm the last of the last. Thank you again take care stay safe and God bless you both

I JUST harvested 7 cabbages from the garden Wednesday!!! This is soooooo on time!!!

I swear I can smell your supper! I know everything is going to be so good! I can't believe anyone would be rude to you about what you cook! Good grief if they can't say anything positive then don't say anything at all!!!! I totally enjoy your videos and how you explain everything. Thank you for always being so honest and kind. God bless you both!

Thank you for inviting us into your kitchen tonight, Miss Lori! We can hear you just fine without the microphone! 😊 Dinner looks delicious! And I think you’d be hard pressed to find any home cook in America today who cooks as fresh and wholesome food as you do!!! Love you bunches! ❤❤❤ …Aren’t your feet cold?

Lori……my Favorite Video you’ve ever made ❣️ You being You, just cooking Supper!! Love y’all 💙 Oh, and love Mr. Brown’s devotionals and readings or studies. And, eat the way you want kiddo! Good ole Country folks being who you are🥰

Miss Laurie. I absolutely adore this peek into an evening with you! And thank you for the added bonus of the cake! When I was little, I’d go to my friends house and her mama would serve us a delicious chocolate cake. She wouldn’t give my mom her recipe. She was from Arkansas and she was so sweet. (We live in central California). I ran into her when I was teaching her grand baby at a preschool and I asked about the cake again. She told me she’d give me the recipe later. She never did. Lol. I bet that was the cake! It looks like it. I’m going to try making it this weekend. Tell Mr. Brown my husband comes into the house with a pocket full of eggs every once in a while too. 😂 Thank you and God Bless! 🕊❤️

Hello, been a while since I watched a video. Just wanted to say, I really enjoy you cooking. Reminds me of my Dad... he was from West Virginia. We thought he was nuts using bacon lard and stuff like that to cook. Little did we know that it's actually better for you than all the processed fats and oil. He was a smart guy. Down home just like you all and I really enjoy watching. It brings me back and makes me calm. Don't listen to those nasty people. You do alright eating and doing as you do. Thanks for the great video's.

Love your cooking. I often cook the same, especially during winter - wonderful flavours -heartwarming.

This is my favorite kind of video. Just hanging around the kitchen with you. When I was little (now a lot older than you) At my grandmother’s house we could watch are my greatest memories . A pinch of this and a pinch of that. You are the only one that cut up your chicken like she did. God Bless you and Mr Brown . Your Tx friend

Ms Lori, I loved spending time with you. It was so interesting to watch you put together a whole meal. The meal you prepared would have made my Daddy a very happy man. That was the kind of food he loved. My Mama would make him fried cornbread because he loved it. So your meal took me back to my childhood. Thank you for sharing your time with us. I am going to make the chocolate mayonnaise cake. It looks delicious. Thank you again and be safe in the icy weather. We love y'all. God bless!!!!

Holy Moly , just made the mayo cake! It is beyond delicious! Thanks from Kentucky! 😃

My mother’s recipe calls for water with a cup of Miracle Whip added and combine that in a 2-Cup liquid measuring cup. You measure the 1 Cup of water in the liquid measuring cup and just add spoonfuls of Miracle Whip to reach the 2-Cup level. Add 1-teaspoon Vanilla Extract and stir it up; that’s your liquids. Just baking soda, not baking powder. But great, moist cake! So nostalgic. This was a Contest Winning recipe back in the 1950’s and was added to the cookbook. I don’t remember if it was Betty Crocker. Could be. My Greet Aunt has a Fudge frosting that compliments the cake very well. It reminds me a little of the Hostess Cup Cakes. But a quite different 7-Minute frosting is wonderful. Mother would tint the 7-Minute frosting with a few drops of food coloring, swirled around. Not completely stirred in. So pretty! Nice for birthdays and Easter.

One of my dad's sister's, Aunt Jackie, used to make the best mayo cakes when I was young. When she first told me what it was I thought she'd lost her marbles. But I never should've doubted her as she always was a fantastic cook. However, I failed to get her recipe. Through the years I did happen upon a mayo recipe and somehow lost it. But you can bet your recipe will NOT get away from me as I've written it down and I'm much more organized than I use to be. This is going into my 'Favorite Recipes Cookbook' and I will be making it to take to my son very soon, but in the meantime my birthday is this coming Sunday! Happy Birthday to me!

I always enjoy watching you cooking and canning, chatting about your lives. I have learned a lot by watching. My mother had a recipe for chocolate mayonnaise cake written in the back of her cookbook back in the 60's. Brings back memories!

As a cardiac nurse who has spent so much time counseling her cardiac patients I can say that all of these vegetables- okra, cabbage, peas- are filled with so much of nutritional value. I have learned that old fashioned garden vegetables are much superior to fast foods and chips and all the processed foods that are, today, contributing to disease. I will not scold you about butter or lard. Wish I was there right now!

I love watching you cook, I learn a lot and enjoy your comforting conversation. Thank you so much for all you give of yourself, God Bless You Both.

Yes, I think most of us eat this way. I raised my children cooking like this! We love the way you cook! Don’t like haters!

You and I cook the very same. I'm in my 60's now, healthy as a horse, lol, and I cook a good size supper nearly every night. Sometimes, it's just cereal here too! :) It's just me and my husband, but I still cook and bake a lot. Tonight we had baked chicken, fried cabbage and fried squash with home made bread. God Bless!!

Hi! Sweet Lori! I so Enjoy this program with you and Mr.Brown, and I am loving this one as I have never seen anyone fry Cabbage. , I Love Cabbage and boiled potatoes in that and fixed me just a can of Corned, beef and simply slice it! Or Homemade Corned Beef Hash with Delicious Hot Biscuits! Your a Precious Christian Couple, and I too Love my Lord! I AM so glad you are on KZread! I will be WATCHING as much as possible! God Bless You and your Love Ones! In Christian Love Linda!!

I think you and Mr Brown represent homesteading in the smart and economical way. Pls don’t let the people with negative attitude towards you get you down. You are the best and well loved by many.

My Aunt Alice would eat onions like apples. She would also fry up a pan of onions (probably in bacon grease), and eat them along with butter bread. It was 1 this morning in Northern Michigan. Really enjoyed this video, watching you cook and having a chat. Blessings to you both!

Some people believe they have the right to judge others. Some believe they’re helping you but some believe their way is the only way. Love your videos. .

People are always going to find fault just because they feel they have to! I love what you cook. I cooked this way alot when my husband was living. Now I rarely cook big meals for just me. I love cereal and sandwiches. Sometimes I eat chips and dips.. lol And, sometimes I cook when my grands are here for a few days.. A whole lot of us love how you cook and can and we will continue to watch and appreciate you both! Keep doing what you do and we will keep watching.. 💞🙏🏼

I’m originally from Iowa and grew up poor but the good Lord always provided food on our table which was surrounded by my Mother and her four children. Oh, was she a good cook and we had food a lot what you fixed in this video. We were on welfare and the state gave us lard, butter, cheese etc each month. My Mother cooked a lot of foods with lard, bacon grease and butter. My husband and I are in our seventies, fairly healthy and we grew up as well as my ancestors on this type of cooking with lard, bacon grease and butter!! I cook this way too even to this day! We also had homemade chocolate mayonnaise cake with frosting. Mom made hers with Miracle Whip as I do too! You are correct in saying that you can’t taste the mayonnaise. It turns out so moist and good! You both made me hungry watching you eat that delicious looking food that I found myself taking bites along with you and Mr. Brown 😅. Thank you for sharing your cooking in the kitchen (I loved it) and sharing your recipes. I loved how you would talk with us while you cooked your meal! Keep the videos coming please! Love, love, love them!! ❤

Thank you so much for the wonderful video, Miss Lori! Everything looks so delicious. I feel like I've spent the evening with you. Thanks for making the world seem right. ❤

Mr. Brown looks almost too tired to eat his supper! It's so kind of you to include us after a long day of work. Supper looks delicious. When I come over, (I wish....), this is what I want for supper, O.K.? Hope and pray the ice and sleet isn't too bad, guys. Stay safe.

I have nothing bad to say about cooking a good meal for your family like this , like you said in moderation. Not everybody likes tasteless fake meat and processed box foods all the time. You make me want to get in the kitchen and cook up a storm. 😘

I have an old time recipe for mayonnaise cake but I’m going to try yours out. Thank you and your pork chops, fried cabbage, fried okra, peas and fried hush puppy bread made me want to come an visit. I’m 72 and still learning. Thank you Mrs Laura and Mr Brown.

Your supper is wonderful. My daddy used to call me the queen of pork chops and cabbage cause I like them so much. Fried is the only way I will eat okra. I don't like when it is slimy. Hope you and Mr. Brown stay safe and warm. Please pray for the people of Ukraine.

@ h brailsford. Here's your answer to the slimy Okra.... In. sauce pan slice Okra add bacon grease,onion, and canned tomatoes. Add seasoning of your choice. Let it cook down a little. Then add small can of tomato sauce. Turn heat to medium high til it comes to boil add 1/2 T.vinegar stir. Turn down to low for about 5 minutes. Serve w rice.

Ruth thank you for that recipe. I'm going to cook it today. I love okra and tomatoes makes my mouth drool thinking about it. I also love a good bowl of old fashioned okra and tomato soup with corn and beans with cornbread. We always had a big garden and my Mama canned a lot of food for the winter so we ate well all year long. Best memories of my childhood.

I agree slimy okra is not to my liking either

Love spending time with you in the kitchen. I learn something every time. You bring joy to your followers.

Lori, you are cooking just like we do here in Georgia. I love fried pork chops, fried cabbage and fried okra. Simple, good down-home cooking that warms the soul. It's the way we were raised, and my grandma was the best cook I've ever known. Like what has been said below, back then, food didn't have all of the additives and preservatives that "fake" food has now. And it tastes so much better, and is better for you IMO. Please keep doing just what you're doing. Cook like you would if you were alone. I just love to watch your videos and have learned some new things too. Thank you for sharing your love of cooking with us. May God Bless you both abundantly. (((hugs))) ♥

My grandmother always made me a chocolate mayonnaise cake when ever I would visit. This was over 50 years ago and no one believed there was such a thing as a chocolate mayonnaise cake. Wonderful memories
