Welcome to our channel where Alex will show you what it is like to farm in the midwest and Lisa will show you how to add homesteading into your life. If you are a wife dreaming of being a crazy chicken lady and curious how to convince your husband to homestead this is the channel for you! Although Alex may not always be a big fan of my crazy plans he normally will end up going along with it.... except living off grid that one I have yet to convince him of. One thing we always seem to agree on are our morals, values, and just down right wishing we lived back in an older generation.

Can you change the size of the hitch that connects to my truck they're not quite the right size for each other… I can either change the truck size… Or perhaps change the hitch on the log splitter… That seems to be the better option
Cook book
Recipe please
Holy cow!! That's a lot of meat!!
what kind of steaks? what kind of roasts? Front quarter? Hind quarter?
You got ripped off😢
Not happy with the 1/4 beef?? Butcher paper wrapped leaves you to reseal everything.
Just gotta say thanks a million for this! My hubby is working full time and I forgot to ask him to teach me how to start our splitter. Was totally struggling before this but the way y’all explained it made it super easy and now I can help him get the job done while he’s at work!❤
I'm so glad this was able to help you! Don't worry I have had to go back and watch my own video again to remember how to start it at first!
just found you......subscribed right away,,,,,,love this channel already ! Cherryl from Canada
I have a ton of rhubarb that I need to do something with. Thanks for the recipe!
you mentioned your husband got elk before. I would like to know how much that was per pound?
Ever thought of doing it yourself ? After a few years experimenting this is what we've been doing, and I didn't grow up on a farm. kzread.info/dash/bejne/anWo1ph-lKqwhbA.html
I just got my third order today... I have been very pleased.. Depending on the weigh is how of a quater you get all three orders have been different in size.. I personally do not like the butcher paper and went with another butcher that provides more cuts and vacuum seal.. My family and friends taster the difference from buying you own rather then store.. So so good..
Nice splitter,adorable kids. I'm tryin to decide between this splitter and harbor freights 20 ton splitter. Theirs is dual action,itll split both way,but it doesnt offer the vertical sitting for larger rounds of wood on the ground. Hopefully watching some reviews will help me decide. Thanks for sharing
Yes
Looks like someone took advantage of you not knowing.
🤔
The Only person who had a video about this future I noticed!!🤘 I subscribed and 👍 as well brother awesome video!
Ok I just got 1/4 a cow for the first time ever today and I got way way more then that I think you got ripped off big time
Sure did, does it really keep a whole year in that paper
I also love Halloween and Fall decorations, so I really enjoyed this haul. Will you be doing a separate haul video for the Easter items you got on clearance?
I buy a whole cow on the hoof, butcher it myself for around $1 per pound ")
i concur. if you butcher the cow yourself, the cost is less.
@@RoseNZieg it's like processing a deer, but not everyone wants to go through that much work, and mess, to save a considerable amount of money, my butcher skill aren't much to brag about, but I'm learning, and getting better "/
@@cancelchannel3394 We would like to cut the middle man out too. So, how are you learning mate, KZread University or?
ALERT! Takes 6 minutes into this video before you actually get to how to start the machine. if you want a video on kids, dogs, country living....than this is the place for you.
So glad Daisy is home!! I'd cry too if my Freddie got lost!!❤️❤️
I have the same splitter. Worked great then it sat a few months. Now it won't even kick over. The carb is super clean, new plugs and I have new gas. Just won't turn over.
Oh no! I’m sorry that happened. Hopefully you can find someone to look at it!
That is affordable
You are absolutely fabulous. Do you stock up on water? Can you possibly do some in store grocery shopping videos? It would be awesome if you could show how you do your full shopping trip
So scary!
Ahhh! LOVE your channel!
Thanks!
White!
I'm glad someone understands me on this! haha
They are adorable.I love baby goats!! I have two adolescent Pygoras and they haven't gotten out yet, we give them lots of attention and change up their toys regularly, we also take them on frequent walkabout and let them forage then. I think it makes them less curious about what is out of their enclosure. Have fun and enjoy them.
I'm excited to see the new ones!! Great demo!!😁
Thank you very much. Looks yum.
Thanks 🙏
Was given two perfectly gd cattle beast recently. Both heifers of just under 3 years old. We had to butcher one immediately. Both live weights were around 600kgs each. So we have sooo much meat. The second cattle beast we won’t be able to kill for a year. I think it’s awesome what you did. You learn and next time you can adjust, it’s all a great experience.
I'm surprised that you didn't find out anything about the steer. Breed, grain or grass fed, weight... 144 lbs of finished meat means the live weight was close to 1400lbs, which means a LOT of fat. A 1200lb steer (ideal weight) gives you around a 750lb carcass, which gives you under 500lbs of trimmed beef.
No just means it was a small cow lol
Was it grass fed and finished?
Thank you for sharing
We get all our beef for free! And we aren't stealing it neither! All private butchers keep some for themselves it's a perk off the job! The Englishman.🏴☠️👍
Sounds like a good deal
Thats stealing
😊
Great ideas! I do loaded twice baked potatoes also and usually pizza doughs.
I just split 1/2 a cow with a friend. It's a local family farm that provides Grass Fed beef. The total weight for 1/2 a cow was 267 lbs split in half. We each got 39 lbs of 1 lb ground beef packages and split 9 prime rib steaks and 9 T-bones. Several roasts, along with tallow, ribs, a brisket (split) organs (tongue, heart, liver) and soup bones. It was all already cryo-vac packed and frozen. Ours was $ 5.50/lb, but it was grass fed. I have a 7 cu ft chest freezer and its about 2/3 full. I'll probably get a 1/2 cow by myself next time.
How much did that 1/2 cost you?
@@kevinhilton5180 I think it was around $1350, it worked out to $5.50-$ 6 per pound.
I just found you today and quite liked you. You were talking about your pasta sauce that you can and you said you ran out. I have a lot of tomato paste I was wondering if you wouldn’t mind doing a video on how you do your pasta sauce using your tomato paste thank you.
I have a great recipe for spaghetti sauce using tomato paste that I found many years ago on a can of Hunt's tomato paste. 1 lb. Ground beef 1/2 cup chopped onions 3 cups water 1-12 oz. Can (Or 2-6oz. Cans) tomato paste 2 tsp. Sugar 1 1/2 tsp. Each: basil & salt 1 tsp. Each: garlic powder & oregano 1/2 tsp. Pepper (I prefer 1/4 tsp.) In large saucepan, brown beef with onions; drain. Stir in remaining ingredients. Simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally for 20 minutes or until desired thickness. Makes 4 cups (serves 6-8).
Orange blossom honey from Azure is so good! Hugs❤️
Orange blossom honey sounds lovely!
I hate piano!
We love their butter, cheeses, Strauss Family Vanilla yogurt, Mary’s chicken wings, spices, Vanilla Almond Granola and Co-Op Grade A Robust Maple Syrup are just a few of our favorites. My daily breakfast includes Straus Vanilla yogurt usually with a few frozen berries from Azure or that I have grown or picked wild and 1/2 banana and a handful of that awesome granola I mentioned above. Oftentimes I don’t even realize it’s lunchtime as I’m still full from my nutritious breakfast. 😊
Oh that sounds good!
New sub. This is how I grew up. My folks bought. 1/2 beef. It's the only way to go.
Looks pretty light to me. Must have been a small steer. I got three times that out of a 1/4.
No, you don't.
The shrink wrapping is not as great as everyone thinks. The plastic gets cold and brittle and breaks easy moving the packages around in the freezer. You have to be careful moving the packages once the are cold.
And paper tears and soils.
That’s great!!! I have a 1/2 cow coming soon 😊
