Cooking with a 90 Year Old Waffle Iron on a Wood Cookstove | Banana, Honey Caramel Waffles

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 พ.ย. 2022
- Today we enjoyed a relaxing morning at home and had waffles on our cookstove using a 90-year-old waffle iron. We topped our waffles with bananas and a delicious honey caramel, which I'll show you how to make. Our cat, Albus, needed a new home, so Dan and I built him one using an old lick tub. I hope you enjoy spending the morning with us.
Thanks for watching!

Aww, Elvis appreciates the new warm bed! You are so loving and thoughtful of your critters. And it is a great reflection on you that your children are so polite and helpful!
How many children are there?
Albus.
I was talking to my husband about why I love your channel so much. We came up with the reason, it’s like I’m going over to my best friends house and she’s making food while making us feel like we’re family. Your channel is my favorite! I always get excited to see your new videos! ❤
Awe, that made my day, thank you, friend.
Love your channel!!
I so agree with your comment! That’s exactly how I feel, welcomed.
For keeping the waffle iron with plenty of butter - try’s small pan right next to the iron and melt butter. The residual heat will probably not burn the butter. But you can pull it away if it does. Then get a pastry brush and it makes for a super quick turn over. I love you videos!!!!!
I have the same stove made by Elmira Stove Works. My model is black enamel and has the water reservoir on the right side.
I bought it new in the 1970 ‘s and used it until 2000; when I moved to Virginia and have had it in storage ever since. It’s so good to see you using this treasure.
I hope you can resurrect it and use it again…. I just have a simple Baker’s Choice as I was on a strict budget when I purchased my wood cook stove.
Thank you, Dan, for always being the on-call cameraman. You do a fantastic job!
Hi I steam canned the slaw yesterday. Used fresh cabbage out of the raised beds out in front of the house. First time using the steam canner. I am 69 and have learned so much from you younger ladies. I have a Home Comfort cook stove that I can use in the winter.
You just made my day!
@Deborah Ruthorford You are a wonderful inspiration to keep learning and trying new things at any age! Thank you!
Good going you guys now the chickens and goats will be happy
The sunrise was beautiful! You were so blessed to see God’s wonderful sunrise like that!
Aww, I wish there was a love button! Your waffles look divine and Albus is going to be very happy in there! ♥️
The waffles looked fantastic! So thoughtful of you to make a nice cat bed for Elvis. It is so nice for outdoor pets/animals to have a nice warm place to stay during the winter. Loved hearing Elvis purr. =^..^= The sunrise was beautiful.
I agree on all points!! Awesome!!
Why are wood stoves and old things including cabins with a fireplace so calming? I immediately begin to relax when I see them.
Kitty in his house was precious. They made things to last back in the 30’s, so waffle iron will most likely last for a few hundred years! ♥️🙏🏼♥️
What a neat waffle maker. I've never seen one for a wood stove and such fun using it too. The waffles turned out great and looked to good. What a wonderful warm cat bed just for Elvis and he looks so cozy in it too.
I call the first couple of pancakes or waffles "the funky ones" because I think it takes whatever pan you are cooking in to get to the right temperature.
I think you did an awesome job making waffles.
Thank you!
I agree my Mom use to let her waffle maker heat for ten min while she made her batter…..oh I made a batch of waffles with chopped bacon in them and with hot maple syrup they were so good….
Your family is so fortunate that you put in so much investment in feeding them so well. I am a cat lover and was worried about Elvis in the cold but you have it covered of course!!
I grew up on a ranch with a wood fired stove, and my grandmother had a waffle iron very like yours. You will have better results if you either use a brush to apply the fat to both sides of the iron, OR apply with a fork to the bottom side as you were doing, THEN flip it before adding the batter. This does two things - it lets the fat you applied to one side drip down to the other side, AND it gives both sides of the iron a chance to heat before the batter is applied. Good stuff!
You reminded me how much I loved cooking on a wood stove. I lived in the Sierras for a while and even food that I didn't like tasted good. I think it is the smoke that gives food that special flavor. After a while, I learned to regulate the heat well enough that I could bake breads.Unfortunately, I did not have a waffle maker at the time, but later my brother who worked for Publice Works found one like yours at, of all places, the municipal dump. That was the job that was assigned first to all new employees. He actually liked working there because he found all kinds of interesting things.
You put so much work into these videos! Thank you for making them!
Yep, I still have a wood stove waffle iron. I can't remember where I found one, but I've been saving it for that "someday", when I would have a wood stove to use it. Hopefully next year,(but in Trudeau's Canada I'm not holding my breath). The last time I had waffles cooked like this was back when I was a teen between '77 to '82. I wish my step mom could remember how she made her white waffle sauce that she made on the wood stove to pour over the waffles. Boy does all this bring back memories. Even your large jars of milk remind me of the ones we stored on the steps under the trap door to the dug out root cellar with limestone walls. Our milk cow was named Molly.
I love watching you all using the cook stove. Thanks for another great video
Maybe use melted butter and a baster thingy and slop that on it.. I also have the cast iron waffle iron.. too fun
Hi, the waffles looks amazing and the caramel sauce delicious. Ohh it is so sweet, the 🐈 looks very happy with his warmth place 😊
That sunrise is glorious, thanks for sharing your video today Chelsea, I loved it. Loved seeing those waffles cooked on the wood stove and certainly loved watching Elvis settle into his winter quarters lol xx
The waffle iron looks like a number 8. Great iron, i have collected a dozen different brands over the years. BTW, perfect ain't necessary, they are great no matter what. These old irons work best on wood burning stoves, for a gas stove you need a raised base. Great job!
There are nice people in the world it seems. Thank you.
There is just something wonderful about vintage items, it has been some 30 years since I've cooked on a wood stove and remember how differently tortillas tasted. You said the right word "FUN", it is just the way I feel when I sit in front of a vintage sewing machine; FUN. Gracias for sharing, It looks like your family takes pleasure at what you do. Bless you.
Never made waffles
Today I made French toast for all ..they were yummy
another wonderful video, enjoyed it so much! I love what you & your husband are doing on the farm. GREAT opportunity for your children, good foundation🥰💯💜
Good evening Chelsea. It was so good to see you making waffles! I found that information in a book somewhere and will have to see if I can find it. The smoke makes the difference in the taste, especially pies and baked beans. You were fortunate to get that waffle iron included. I paid over $100.00 for my Griswold and that was on sale! You are doing fine with the iron. It needs to be seasoned really well on both sides. I beat in egg whites in the batter sometimes. You can use that iron on a gas stove too. Enjoy! ~ Diane
Waffles and warm kitty what more could one ask❤
I love cooking with cast iron. I found an old corn bread pan (the one divided into triangles) at a yard sale. I've never made cornbread in it. I get it really hot on the stove grease it with lard. Make a batch of biscuit dough, shape it into a round shape to fit the pan. Set the dough on top of the hot pan, push it down just a bit. Throw it in the oven and bake as usual. Less handling of the dough makes them soft and fluffy and they start rising fast because the pan is already hot. :)
That's a big beautiful cat he likes his little house 🏠
That was a beautiful sunrise for sure. And oh my gosh you are on fire with new subscribers climbing I had tears seeing the number tonight. This is so wonderful but I knew it was going to happen. You well deserve it. That is wonderful the waffle pan still in existence all these years. The way things should be. Last and last like things used to. We can not look forward to Teflon pans and plastic bowls being antiques :( That little thank u voice when getting her waffle 💖💖. They looked decadent. All of them I am sure were perfect. A good mouser protecting his family and farm animals from critters deserves a cozy house for sure. Thank you both for not being afraid to show kindness in so many ways. hugs
You’ve motivated me to clean and restock my spices. It needs it soo badly. The waffles looked yummy! Be well and stay safe, Doc❤
Growing up we had a small wood cook stove (could hold 2 pots) which we used when the power went out since in our area when we lost power in the winter time it was out for days or weeks.
The neighbors would come over to use it at those times also. Never did understand why they didn't get one of their own.
Our grandparents lived across the field from us and grandma never wanted an electric stove after they could afford it. She had a good size one that included 2 ovens. She made the best lemon meringue pie every thanksgiving. I have many memories of the corner she would set me in with magazines and catalogues that I could cut things out of while she was cooking. My favorite being the McCalls magazine that had a page of paper dolls each month.
Many happy memories that included that ever so toasty stove in the winter.
Many happy
Such fond memories of your granny! I spent every weekend with my granny and grandad growing up, she only lived over the road. How I wish my children could have met her, she was a real lady
I live in Florida so I don't have the snow and mountains,but the sunrise is the same so beautiful.My favorite time of day.
I love your use of honey in so many of your recipes. I have to try doing that more often. That caramel sauce looked soooo good! That waffle maker is made even more special by its history. So cool!
Thank you for that incredible view. I stopped breathing for it.
I'am not into waffles, nor a waffle whiffer Pan Cakes? Hell yes I love your wood cook stove. YOU SO LUCKY
Omgoodness Elvis is a very lucky cat to have such caring people like you and Dan. That is a awesome place for him. I used to have a waffle iron similar to that one but when I moved I left it with the cookstove. Now I need to start looking for another one so when we get our cookstove I can use one again. Keep warm and thanks for sharing, 🌷🇨🇦
Did I ever ask you what kind of stove you have?
@@LittleMountainRanch the one we have now is a very old McClary Leroy it’s not in our house but in our cabin across the road. But once we move over there I think we are going to buy a brand new JA Roby through home hardware. Their burn time is 3 to5 hours. Have you ever looked at Lehmans website. They are in the states but have cool things geared for off grid or simple living. They have waffle irons for cookstoves. My Leroy is not in as good shape as your stove. But it works when we get extended power outages.
I never thought watching waffles cook would be so interesting. You sure scored on that wood stove.
Every one of the waffles was 1000% perfect. Also, butter each side of the waffle iron.
Cool !! Many Thanks !!
I love the process and flavor of cooking on a wood-fired stove. Glad you noticed you were not buttering the top of the waffle iron.
It’s nice to see the joy you have cooking with ur wood stove!
Love that cook stove!!! Beautiful!
Ah that was so sweet of yas for the outdoor kittie. Loved his house & so does he. 😊👍
I've dreamed of having a wood cook stove, Waffles looked delicious 😋
Great job. Recommend you try using clarified butter or peanut oil on the iron. While preheating turn the iron frequently in order to have a consistent temperature.
If you use peanut oil you’ll find that you won’t have to oil the iron every time you bake your waffle.
And if you put a couple of baking racks on the stove top and put your waffles on them as pull them off the iron they’ll maintain their crispness
Have fun. I’ve cooked thousands of waffles on my Griswald iron
All such great tips, thank you!
I understand the spice cabinet thing! I took all mine out and put bulk items in mason jars and then got a spice spinner cabinet for smaller everyday use! It was a game changer! Loving your videos! Makes me excited to bake for winter! Loved seeing the snow. Arkansas doesn’t see a lot of that 😂
Great video. Thanks for making them.
Loved this
Those waffles looked absolutely amazing! And aww I bet the cat is so happy!
Love the stove and waffles. Great video.
Nice.tx, blessings. Such energy and talent. We in the Catskills have been blessed with warmer temps because it should be freezing right now.
Aww kitty is so happy, made my night 😊❤
Amazing!
It is amazing how good food tastes when you make it yourself!
Awesome how great your waffles turned out. Elvis looks happy with his new heated cat house. No snow yet here in NY. I can't wait to garden next year already.
When you made up the plate for breakfast my mouth was watering. Love anything with caramel.
❤Looks delicious ❤️
That molten orange mountain sunrise was spectacular. Thank you a BUNCH! BTW, your excitement about the waffles is very infectious ...as I was excited right along with you! I agree 100% that ya need THINNER waffle batter. I loved watching all your explanations, as it all made good sense to me.
Aww Elvis has an awesome bed! Thanks for caring and loving the furkids! 👍🏻
You had me drooling over waffles. Omg they looked so delicious! Carmel and Bananas was a great topping for sure! You and Martha did a great job! Thanks!! Cheers!
That was a wonderful video! I think you have a very happy and lucky cat on your hands. I love the lessons we get when you cook on your wood stove. I have always wanted to learn how to use a wood stove. So thank you!
You certainly look like an “expert “ to me!!! I thoroughly enjoyed watching you use your wood stove!!!!
You are doing an incredible job. Looks so delicious. Love, Love, Love the stove. ❤❤❤
Lovely Sunrise to start the day. Enjoyed the video.
The heated cat bed is kitty approved. Great job.
It was such a fun video to watch! Making waffles is always a challenge for me, even on a modern waffle maker.seeing you make them on a cook stove encourages me to try again. I love the cute cat house for Elvis, and how sweet you are to your animals and your family. Always a joy to watch your videos.
Such a beautiful and blessed family🙏🌺
New to your channel and I love it. What a beautiful sunrise.
Welcome!
That was some serious multi tasking! You are amazing!!
Love the stovetop cooking, been looking into getting a woodstove and all these videos are truely an inspiration ❤
I use to start prepping at 4 am. Fun for sure! When the kids woke up they had a full breakfast great bacon smell through out the house got the kids out of bed a little earlier than usual.... then back to cooking around noon on a cold NE winter day, a turkey in the oven and all the fixings. Tasting better? I think it is all in our heads just like I think the heat from my wood stove is a better heat for the home. I believe it is because we are reaping our efforts. I have also ruined some meals too.
Fits' Purrfectly!
Delicious breakfast! What a treat!
Love your cook stove and the wafler looked delicious with the Carmel sauce. Know your cat will enjoy their warm bed. Thank you for sharing. Stay warm.
Chelsea I ♥️ your warm, cozy kitchen…and that wooden island top.,, 🥰
That’s truly amazingly beautiful and thank you so much for sharing it I loved it
Fabulous way to cook waffles, made me want some!!!!!! Your cat seems to think very highly of his new digs!!!!!!! GREAT video!!!!!!
Albus is amazing!
best kitchen yet here!
Love your cook stove and your videos.
I don't have a barn, but I have shed kitties. I put a heavy piece of wood on top of the house -which is a large styrofoam cooler - to keep them from knocking it around. Tonight is our first night down to about 30 degrees fahrenheit and they are tucked in already. Those waffles look like fancy restaurant waffles to me too. Thanks for showing us!
your great!!!! the joy in you when you got it done so good was perfect!! love watching your cooking videos
Thank you so much!!
The cat house was great.
Very much enjoyed watching you cook on your wood stove. Great job. Loved Elvis also I have a gray cat but she is an inside princess.
Absolutely loved this video. Thank you from a farm in Maine USA!
Thanks for sharing and God’s blessings for you and all your family I wish you all a early thanksgiving. God bless
Beautiful, I miss my beautiful sunrises and sunsets.😊
Beautiful!!
Love watching your awesome life!!!

Happy kids; happy cat, life is good.

Yep food cooked on a wood cook stove is way better than any other stove

Waffles looked so good!
Enjoyed your waffle experiment on the old Iron,....brought back memories ❤️

I adore your stove. I love the waffle iron too, I have one as well, I think I’d better get it out of the camp trailer and start using it in the house..❤
Those waffles looked wonderful!
