Thanks, Ben and Meg @thehollarhomestead for hosting this class! It was wonderful learning more about where our food comes from and building a deep respect and appreciation for the food that fuels us and for those who raise and grow our food. Meg is a wonderful cook and an amazing host and Bed is a fantastic teacher! Meg's Pork Digital Cookbook – https://www.hollarhomestead.com/shop/p/the-pork-cookbook-e-book
This was so nostalgic for me so thank you for sharing it with us. My father was a union journeyman meat cutter for most of his life. He grew up on a farm in rural coastal Virginia during the depression and after graduating high school moved to DC where he worked for his older brother at his meat (I think he processed chickens) stand. When his brother went into a different line of business, my father started working at a grocery chain in the suburbs of DC. I kept the knives he used and still have them (also have his union tie clasp), so when I saw the knife you were using it brought back so many memories including a picture of me standing in the meat cooler as a very young child next to a bunch of very large beef hanging from large hooks ready to be cut up for sale. We had so many fantastic dinners because there were guidelines that people actually followed back in the 60s about how long beef could stay on the shelves before it had to be thrown out. Before they would throw it out, they would offer it to store employees at a discount. He'd bring it home and freeze or cook it immediately. Every once in a while we'd get the really expensive cuts if no one bought them, but there was never a time when we didn't have some cool cut of some type of meat to eat. I'm glad you got a chance to have a fun experience with your sister! She sounds a lot like your mother. What a blessing!
I wish i could find a place like that here in texas…i woild love to learn how to cut up meat.
How any of you can justify slaughter is beyond me…
josh.. your sister so reminds me of your mum
So excited for you Becky! Your channel continues to grow!! 🎉Congratulations on 600K🎉 Best wishes for continued success. Blessings😊
fabulous! we love the Hollars!
My husband and I watch the Hollar Homestead and when we watched their video we both said “ that looks like Becky!” 😮you and i live in the same state. My channel is Elderberry farm life. Very cool to see you at the Hollar Homestead.
I saw you in Meg and Ben’s video a few days ago. It’s amazing how widespread this homestead community is. It’s like seeing old friends. I watch the Hollers and Bri from scratch-knew they were friends as well as the Rhodes. Y’all are all my faves for different reasons. Love your channel and all your content. You teach this 68 yr old great grandma new stuff everyday.
I’m fairly new to your channel and I love it. Do you have kids? I hear you talk about Josh but not any one else.
I thought I caught a glimpse of you in their video. 👍
Aww… you ladies were so close to my home. I hope you enjoyed NC
Thanks so very much for sharing!💜🙏🏼
A great video! Thank you
Thanks for sharing that was great!
I never liked getting up so early to get to the airport! I was stranded at Denver once coming back from Billings MT. I was going to sit in a chair til my flight in the morning! My daughter says no way. She booked me a hotel room. Safe travels, Becky!! ✈️❤
Hi Becky, I really enjoyed this, so amazing you got to learn how to butcher hogs, & the plate of food looked so delicious! – I am a 2 hour early gal for airports! 🙂
Thank you for thos video. My husband and I did this about 5 years ago. We bought the pigs from a fried of my sons. Local grown. My husband did the processing.
I am always amazed at how beautiful the cuts of meat are when all is complete.
Thanks for all you do. I love watching your videos. ❤
Congratulations on 600K🎉. I enjoy all your videos. I always watch you when Im busy in the kitchen or folding clothes. You make both tasks go faster.
I was glad to see your side with Ben and Meg. I've been following them for a few years. They are awesome people. It was great to see them from another perspective. Thanks. I've started watching you now because of them. Thanks.
So glad you got to go on this trip!
Love the hollerhomstead!!
Meg and Ben are amazing!!! I was actually was able to see you in their video just awesome!!
Becky you are amazing and you inspire me in every video!! I’m a Dental Hygienist in CA and I admire you for taking the step and being on YouTube and helping all of us!!! Can’t wait to see you in the the next video ❤️
You were in my area! I live not far from the Hollars. Bri and I use the same Azure drop.
You were in my neck of the woods! 😃
I would love that food crawl and I hope one day to go on a Educational and food crawl!!! , right now I'm just having a to put it on my bucket list!!!,one can only hope !!!
Girl we have done 3 hogs this year for the 1st time. It's been an amazing experience. Probably won't go back to the grocery store for pork again
Hey Becky. This might sound crazy but after watching your videos in my head in now see you as a good friend who calls me on FaceTime each morning to tell me about what’s happening on the farm. (I just can’t talk back to) lol. I’d like to see a video on how you freeze dry your spices sorry if you’ve already done one but I keep jumping around to ones YouTube suggest. Well by friend 👋
Congratulations on learning a new skill, it is always good to learn and understand the various cuts. My husband and I learned this 30 years ago when we were in Culinary School and it has been something that we have never forgotten and use as we choose our cuts as meats as well.
I follow The Hollar's, and I thought you were in their last video.
You’re such an inspiration to me and my fiancé. We want to homestead and be sustainable and your channel is really helping learn. Thank you for sharing your knowledge ❤
I love you so much Friend!!!! You are HANDS DOWN my favorite YouTuber and am constantly amazed at how you do all you do with abundant grace and you choose your words so wisely! Thank you thank you thank you for being BECKY!!!
Also yes, I like to be way too early to the airport and I can’t ever find the rental cars🙈 bless you girl!
Nope!
Grew up in this area, born and raised in Asheville! It's a beautiful place. 😊 I did move to Greenville sc area though so we could have a bigger house and a little land! Cost of living in those mountains are high!
I hopeful I can have that experience one day of learning to butcher/process an animal!
