@@akindofmagick1 From what I've seen, the marathons are just the regular short episodes all put together for a longer viewing if you want it, otherwise you can skip those and just watch each individual episode from it. Personally I like the marathons, I can pause and resume it tomorrow if I like.
Always love watching your channel, Mr. Townsends. When the world seems too dark, just sitting back and watching some of your episodes helps. Keep up the great work!
Thank you so much for posting a marathon into one video. I love watching long videos of this instead of constsntly being interrupted by youtube during playlists
This just might be the best Townsends video EVER! I'm getting into rendezvous and re-enacting. This 4hr video is EXACTLY what I needed to see. THANK YOU!
I mean this with the greatest endearment as someone who has worked in a kitchen.. Mr. Townsend here obviously hasn't, and I love it because it plays into the rustic making-do spirit of the foods themselves. One of my favourite channels! ❤
Before canned baked beans became so popular mom had her mom's bean pot and it smelled sooooo good when you'd walk in and smell that pork and beans baking, it never looked so appetizing from the beans boiling over but they tasted wonderful! BTW That bean pot was from 1890 and I inherited it from mom, had it for many years till it gave up the ghost and cracked, broke my heart.
This is the best video of Townsends I have ever watched! For sure I will try some of the recipes! Thank you for the inspiration and the information about the early years of America.
Hello from romulus Michigan brother thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise and for taking us on your adventures through time and history GOD-BLESS I am 8 miles west of dearborn ville thank you for taking us on your adventures
Me getting ready for bed: New Townsends video, nice. Me looking at the video length: Gonna have to finish this one up tomorrow LOL. But at least I learned two good recipes tonight!
Would the soldiers have wasted those pumpkin seeds? Roasted in a dry pan with a bit of salt, they make a tasty and nutritious snack while on the march...
Reference your parched corn recipe, look at " Atole, a delicious indigenous drink " . that is made with finely ground parched corn and with other flavors added.
Butter,beef cube,s&p,morels. That’s all you need. We get orange ones the size of beer cans in my back yard if the weather is good enough. Deer often get them before I can.
JoS Townsend & Co: First off, THANK YOU FOR A WONDERFUL CHANNEL!!! I'm serious, I've gotten many hours of enjoyment out of your channel and enjoy it immensely! It's nice to not simply learn about history but to have you re-live it in a fashion, a refreshing break from the barrage of junk on TH-cam and commentary/opinions on our modern troubles. One question: why don't you do much of the homesteading stuff anymore? I love the recipes and other stuff too, but the homesteading in the 18th century is positively captivating and particularly after binging on your 4 hour marathon on it, I wish there was an equal mix of that in your channel. Again, thank you so much for bringing this channel to us for so many years!
How about a marathon with small beer, spruce beer, switchel, mushroom ketchup, etc.. I still make your ginger beer every year for the family to survive the hot Texas summers.
21:19 splitpea soup is still in the north of The Netherlands, groninen province particulair a staple winter soup. World champoinships of soupmaking held annually and it is on list of Cultural Food Heritage one a few foods in Gromningen in that list.
Haven't watched this video yet. I was scrolling the comments hoping for a timestamp sort of post but had to pause here to say this is what I made for dinner along with honey wheat bread. Yumm. Alright, back to looking for a table of contents post.
Enjoyed long video. Good cooking new ideas. I do a lot of open cooking when camping hunting and friendship. It’s coming up might be trying a simple recipe. Don’t know witch. But my cast iron loves new food
[Bernie meme] I am once again asking for more homesteading content. In the past year, only 8 videos out of 54 have been non-food-related videos. I can understand that the cooking content seems to do better on average (not to mention probably quick, easy, and most importantly cheap to churn out in high numbers), but perhaps it's *because* you mostly only ever upload cooking content that homesteading content doesn't do as well. I imagine it creates a cycle where the new viewers you attract are under the impression that this is just a historical cooking show and are confused/uninterested when anything that isn't within that very narrow vein is posted. There's still a huge selection of homesteading topics that have yet to be covered, too. Just as a single example, you've hardly done any farming stuff at all, which in many cases would have been the difference between life and death to a frontier homestead. If you were on the frontier, you would also have been mostly limited to cooking what you or your neighbors could produce on-site. There's tons of content in that subject alone: clearing/plowing/maintaining the field, sowing the seeds, irrigation, discussion on how the crops are growing, harvesting, rotating crops, period-accurate fertilizers and pesticides, using beasts of burden, dealing with mice/birds/etc., farming equipment available at the time, growing market crops, difficulties faced by farmers, differences between farmers on the frontier vs farmers closer to town, etc. etc. I know actual farming might be more work than you guys are prepared to do on a property you don't even live on, but this is just an example. There are lots of topics one could make a whole series of videos about if they just think creatively about different aspects of daily life at this time. I do appreciate the livestreams, as those usually have a good variety of interesting topics, but they aren't as concise or fun to watch as the main content. The historical pictures are really neat, but it would be better to see live, of course. It really seems like a lot of those topics could have full channel videos done about them, too. Spinning wool into yarn seems like a perfect example.
Many of the songs that play in the videos are from Jim's Red Pants. They are friends of the channel and have been guests in the Nuymeg Tavern before. Many of their CDs arecavailable from Townsends' website.
Very interesting! Thank you. Doubthathey had many foods you used. How could they get lemons? Chickens probably tasted “gamey”. Using only egg yokes? What happened to thegg whites? Can’t waste it.
5:49 oh are there any references to soldiers also ‘baking’ the seeds (like when you carve pumpkins on Halloween) to make an additional snack/longer lasting food?
That fish was about ten pounds shy of 20 pounds. Northern fish are true 20-plussers. But I digress, I enjoy my local deep fried stock fish with good condiments as much as you do. Our fish is the best though…
I loved this marathon. I'm from Lawrence county IN... I love morels, unfortunately I've not been able to find them down here. So funny, "spike"? That's not what we called those early ones but not very politically correct so I won't say it here but I'm sure you know what it is...lol. I watched the whole thing, may have to watch again.👍
Where is the 5 or 8 ounces of cheese . They got a week . Gos good with that pumkin . S9me thing ells the gray ash turns white and cold rub it on your skin to keep Mosquitos from attacking .
My grandson told me about you! Your videos are perfect for me. He's 30, I'm 77. You are drawing generations together. 😊💜
I'll be shelling beans today- this is wonderful to have to enjoy while putting up the harvest!! Thank you!
I love this!!! How fun! ☺️
hell yeah, a four hour townsends compilation
Nope. Who has time for that? 20-30 min tops, please.

This is the best cooking show to watch
for classic old fashioned cooking from the early days of America.🥓🥩🧀🍞
I think it might be one of the only ones 😅
Thank you so much for posting a marathon into one video. I love watching long videos of this instead of constsntly being interrupted by youtube during playlists
This is just what I needed to watch while I get my knitting done! Learning while working! Thank you!
love these videos. just hit play and my day is set for several hours
Thank you for all the hard work you've done over the years. Plenty of great meals here!! History in its finest.

The evolution of the cooking series is amazing and beautiful! Well done Jon and crew!
That was an awesome watch Jon. Thanks for compiling this for everyone. Fred.

Yay!!!!!! Love the marathon videos. I watch them all the time 😊❤
I just discovered this channel, i absolutely love it!! The history and recipes are great Thank You to all of the people working so hard to make this..
Awesome marathon.Thank you for putting it together... as always, perfect🎉
I love this marathon!! Fascinating!! Cool!! Enjoyable!! And I'm salivating 😂😂🤣😂
Well done!! 👏👏👏👏👌
Delightfully presented marathon indeed 😊
Me getting ready for bed: New Townsends video, nice. Me looking at the video length: Gonna have to finish this one up tomorrow LOL. But at least I learned two good recipes tonight!
I love the idea that something like cinnamon from the other side of the world pair so well with something that first only grew in the new world.
Thats literally the case with EVERYTHING. rice, corn or potatoes just about with EVERY meal humanity eats now.
Would the soldiers have wasted those pumpkin seeds? Roasted in a dry pan with a bit of salt, they make a tasty and nutritious snack while on the march...
that was my question too
Depends on taste for soldiers. People did eat the seeds but like now it really comes down to personal preference.
Nuts and seeds have lots of phytic acid and such, probably not worth the cost
The "forward-thinking" soldier would have done so, to have for barter etc with rations being not always so regular.
I wouldn’t be eating pumpkin weeds during a battle. I need my jaw at rizz maxing
Townsends I Appreciate You and Thank You For Sharing!
"Savor and flavor and the aromas of the 18th century" - great catch line!
Who is this clean-shaved guy who replaced Townsends? 🙂
It’s him.
Reference your parched corn recipe, look at " Atole, a delicious indigenous drink " . that is made with finely ground parched corn and with other flavors added.
Made my morning. Coffee church campfire
Butter,beef cube,s&p,morels. That’s all you need. We get orange ones the size of beer cans in my back yard if the weather is good enough. Deer often get them before I can.

Not just Groningen. 'Snert' is eaten all over the country. Especially with 'Roggebrood en spek'.

@@elricthebald inderdaad word overal gegeten
its eaten all over the country
the whole open fire cooking technique foods are so Yummy, let's grab a bite.
Letsgooooooo 4 hours compilation wooo
Baked beans with bacon maple and a hint of smoke from the fire. I'd call that the definition of comfort food.👌
I can't imagine wearing white pants for work much less out in the wild.
Finally, some good effing food.
Jumping over here after the live stream! Townsend's, what the doctor ordered to help me feel better! 🤗💕

Awesome
Love it and all the knowledge you share!
Great video. For flipping onion rings, a wooden skewer (you could use a twig to make it period perfect) works well.
These videos got me through some hard times , I love them !!!
This was a lot longer than anticipated, I'm late for work.
The salt pork hash, salt pork soup, and fresh beef stew all looked so good, and not too different from what we would make nowadays!
Love watching your show. Peaceful. Love there is no politics.
Thank you for making this beautiful channel. I plan to ba a supporter!
This made for an awesome Sunday after church. Thank you so much! ☦️☦️☦️
great work! love what you do :)

When making cheese curds, remember to get out the whey
do we have a townsends soundtrack playlist? the intro song is neat!
Many of the songs that play in the videos are from Jim's Red Pants. They are friends of the channel and have been guests in the Nuymeg Tavern before. Many of their CDs arecavailable from Townsends' website.
Would the soldiers have access to buter or milk? Highly doubtful
Very interesting! Thank you.

This dude literally doesn't age. Probably hasn't aged for 200+ years. Are the Townsends vampires?
No but maybe there's a portrait of him in the attic which IS aging!!!!!!!(many thanks to Oscar Wilde!!!!!)💖💖🤣🤣🎃🎃🧛♂🧛♂💖💖😱😱🎃🎃✌✌💋💋
Saw a nice Colonial Era movie from 2007 called"Sign of the Beaver" with Keith Carradine. Nice period piece. AKA " Keeping the Promise".
I love your introduction on mushrooms, we gotta protect our viewers
5:49 oh are there any references to soldiers also ‘baking’ the seeds (like when you carve pumpkins on Halloween) to make an additional snack/longer lasting food?
Best cooking shows ever
10/10 video
Love 💕 this ! What was done with the leftover rind of the pumpkin 🎃
Thanks!
You do have to sneak on mushrooms and a stick. Look behind you because they will jump up behind you
Can salt be recycled? Boiling off the soak water from salted meats would have returned the salt. But would they have done this?
Food looks delicious!!!
also, it some ofthe water into the pan you cooked your beef in until u release all that flavor then pour that back into your stew !
That fish was about ten pounds shy of 20 pounds. Northern fish are true 20-plussers. But I digress, I enjoy my local deep fried stock fish with good condiments as much as you do.
Our fish is the best though…
Just want to say what a beautiful thumbnail 👍
Wow . Now iam hungry 😋

Thx
Took one bite into the fire cake and said “I’ll eat this later” and cut to black lol
“When there was no meat, we ate fowl and when there was no fowl, we ate crawdad and when there was no crawdad to be found, we ate sand”
You should have toasted those pumpkin seeds! 😊
I might try stuffing the pumpkin with sliced apples.
I still laugh every time I see the long S
Nice!
Your channel is not just content; it's a real adventure. Looking forward to new videos!🔥🔥🔥 @ 🧿*
"And I'll begin to give it some oxygen"
*proceeds blowing CO2 into it*
Surprised they didn't use the pit of the pumpkin in some way.
Salted pumpkin seeds are great.
I'm surprised the seeds were thrown out. They are extremely nutritional
Look at that baby faced John!
How d o you keep so clean? When I cook over a fire I get black.
Where is the 5 or 8 ounces of cheese . They got a week . Gos good with that pumkin . S9me thing ells the gray ash turns white and cold rub it on your skin to keep Mosquitos from attacking .
amazing
best thing to sleep to 🫡
Have you done anything on Black Pudding - blood pudding or White pudding?
A French Foreign Legion marching song -Le Bouidin?
4 hours of survival. Holy crap.
Reminds me to get my pumpkin seeds in the ground.
Woo hoo! Who is that young soldier?😊
Look at that baby-face 😊
May I have the formula / recipe for the bread please? thanks
I'm surprised that you said walnut sized when you could have said nutmeg sized 😂
