Hi, I'm Burl Sizemore. I was born in 1954 and have spent my whole life in the same county in the mountains of eastern Kentucky. My mother cooked for seven people on a wood stove until 1963, and I stood at her elbow for the first ten years of it. This channel is about what came out of that kitchen. The skillet, the stove, the pantry, and how a family got fed on almost nothing. I am not going to tell you this food was healthy. It was cheap, and it was what grew here. But a good deal of it was better than what replaced it, and it got dropped for convenience and not for taste. Those are the ones worth keeping. Cast iron, wood stoves, cornbread and biscuits, sorghum and lard, hog and garden, and how a mountain family ate from the 1930s to the 1960s. New videos regularly. Subscribe if there is a skillet in your house that somebody else seasoned.
