@@mollysanders9757 it's ok to wash it with a little bit of soap and a gentle, non-abrasive sponge. you can't soak it, put it in the dishwasher, or use harsh cleaning products and abrasive sponges, though.

Pretty sure I once soaped a seasoned skillet when I was a kid and learning to wash dishes with perhaps too much zeal... my dad sat me down and gave me the detailed, scientific, chemical reasons why we do not.

BTW boiled peanuts in a can were created for people from the South who live in northern states as a means to survive. My wife and I live in Alaska and that’s what we have.
There's been a few times I've actually seen the Southern rise up in my daughter. #1- the first time I took her to Bristol . I could see it building , eyes getting wide, scooting to the edge of her seat, wiping her hands on her shorts and veins in her neck dilating. Then it happened, a woman behind us stands up and yells for her favorite driver. My daughter responded by standing up and cheering for her favorite driver. I swear I expected her to take off her shirt and twirl it above her head with a loud WOOHOO. One of the best memories ever🤣
4:30 My mom lived in Daytona Beach the last 30 years. That was her expression for the 500, spring break, bike week and when the rest of us "snow birds" clogged up the roads.
I am a northern southerner. I was raised in the south by a northern mother. There are things I like about both and I get to pick and choose what to keep.😏
Water you can’t see the bottom of - OMG YES! Thats always my thing too, If I go down to Florida and the water is crystal clear I’m good, but if things are swimming against me and I can’t see what they are that’s a hell no!!!
Floridian here, better odds of a shark getting in clear water than a gator getting you in murky. Good rule of thumb in freshwater lots of people/noise keep the dangerous stuff away. In the ocean it attracts it.
“I have a fear of water I can’t see the bottom of” Me too! That’s called thalassaphobia. I grew up on islands (born in Bermuda and lived in cayman) and i would swim in the ocean all the time because it was crystal clear! Other than that I am terrified!
I enjoy this video. & black women with a southern accent is the cutest thing ever hear & seen . Y'all out there have a wonderful day & nite wherever y'all are in the🌎 world stay safe peace out 😊✌
The souls of your ancestors will be purged if you use soap on it. Clean it with steel wool, a LODGE certified scrubber or salt and reseason but don't EVER put SOAP on a cast iron skillet, especially if it's old.
@@lucylulusuperguru3487 but if you do all you gotta do is put it in the oven and wipe butter or bacon grease up into it, easy peasy. It's no big deal, just creates an extra step.
@@jordanhicks5131 I'm not one of those that does extra steps. My cast iron is way way old, I am not doing anything to mess up that seasoning that's taking years and years to get soaked into it.
Head over to Waycross! Peanut man by the flash foods right down from the library, can't miss it! He makes so much money from those peanuts he has his neighbor tow his truck down to and back from his spot everyday. Peanut man lost his license... So now he don't drive :) I think that's literally the only job he has
They had to mention Pioneer because they were talking about Southern foods in this video and not real Southern banks like Renaissance and Carolina Bank.
When I fry chittlins I always save a handful to put in grits the next morning. I cook them at my camp so I can use spring water. Boil them and spoon foam off the top. Don’t put nothing in the first boil bit onions. When they quit foaming pour water out and boil again with fresh water and crab boil. When they are done lay them out and season with your favorite seasoning. Mix in half corn mill and four then fry them. I can’t explain how good they are but I grew up eating them.
Yeah, I live in New Mexico and found canned boiled peanuts at Walmart a couple weeks ago. I didn’t even think of buying them. That shouldn’t even be legal.
I made the classic mistake of not checking the calendar and scheduling my wedding for the weekend of BOTH Bama's homecoming and Talladega when we lived in Northport, AL. The reception ended at 8 PM, yet we still almost missed our flight from Atlanta the next afternoon due to traffic.
Got boiled peanuts a few months ago at a Race Track gas station---they had a kiosk inside the store with boiled peanuts---one regular the other spicy. Okay, them thangs is goooood. Hard to stop eating them. But I bought them on the side of the road in Florida. PEANUTS! Bodacious!
The show is authentic love it. I remember first time working in Louisville Kentucky and hearing white folk speaking southern accent and customs. I thought they. Learned it from black folk from Compton California. So my black friends culture is southern. Downey California
When I was in grade and high school we had a boot legger named Doodle. He put at least 3 grandchildren through Grambling State University. Just by doing that. Memories of the good old days.
Oh no, Diane! :o !!!!! NASCAR is very much a sport! Heavens be, some of those NASCAR guys are haaaawwwtttt! (faints in melodramatic Southern belle style, lol)
Not even from the South, but I had family who lived on the Mississippi in Iowa so we'd go to the river boat casinos before they permanently docked them and I remember going fishing with my uncle in his beat up in his tiny outboard boat. Good memories.
LOL!!! Ya'll say southern and all I think is Mexico! :) Lived in TN for a couple of years. GO VOLS! And I have had Chitlins. Family in Seattle bought a whole pig and cooked it right then and there. All was pretty cleaned and sausages were made. Have eaten boiled peanuts, but this was from a road stand in Mexico AND some that my grandma made out in the mountains from her own planting. They were amazing.
The Mississippi starts in Minnesota. I was actually living in the North when I had the opportunity to ride a steamboat on the Mississippi. Never ate chiltlin's. Really big for North Carolina's A&T Homecoming. My mama taught me better than to skinny dip.
I was stationed at Scott AFB and our neighbors (also Air Force) were from deep south and their Grandmama lived with them. She made Chitlins for thanksgiving. I fixed up my plate and grabbed the hot sauce. They about dropped thier plates. I had to explain while I was BORN in Texas I was "raised" by Cajuns in the swamps of Alabama and Grandma Beasley made sure I KNEW HOW TO EAT RIGHT! I passed ALL my Air Force survival courses and taught my instructors a thing or two.
Been to juke joint, skinny dipped, been on the Mississippi, tailgated, never wanted to try chittlin’s, went to Daytona racetrack, have scrubbed cast iron with metal scrubber to remove burnt residue but no soap and always added grease after to preserve seasoning, personally do care for boiled peanuts but I still buy them for my daughter.
Assume by "Watercraft" on the Mississippi they were referring to sightseeing or excursion tours and not "personal" water craft. I can assure you nobody in South Louisiana would be crazy enough to go out for a fun day in an 18ft outboard to play chicken with oil tankers or a grain carriers. But if a car ferry counts then I've BTDT
Car ferries count, as would steamboats, canoes, barges, etc. I think they are just trying to exclude thing like casinos that are on the water but basically affixed to the land.
@@cisium1184 I think they were specifically excluding bridges, as that was mentioned in the video. I'm not sure if the casino barges count, or not. They used to have to be floating on the water, even though they could be permanently anchored and tied together with the portion that was built on land.
Diane, I also don’t care for NASCAR, just a bunch of shine runners. My family has been in the Bristol area for a few hundred years. My sons called themselves “j crew rednecks” , they love nascar, but have great fashion sense, and you will never see them shirtless, with the number 3 shaved into their very,hairy, backs. Me, I love IRL! Every Memorial Day, I am glued to the tv, or the radio. I remember buying peaches off the big, trucks long side the road. The guys had just come back from Georgia. I don’t know what the big fuss is about boiled peanuts. When I saw Matt puttin a bag of p-nuts in a Coke, I do remember doin that. When I get to Heaven, I will have to sneek over to the northern side, so I can drink Pepsi. Can’t help it, but I love it. Pray for me
Have stuck my toe in the Mississippi but never been on a boat on it. In fact, never been on any form of motorized boat. Rode jetskis, waverunners, been in several john boats and kayaked a bunch.
I'm from NZ, I been to ONE NASCAR race and yea it was at Taladega! Super cheap seat on the back straight cars so close you could not see them fly past. Other side was good tho!
I wash my cast iron skillet. I don't use soap (obviously). But sometimes it needs to be done. I brush it off and pour boiling water over it. If it's really nasty, just a dash of vinegar wiped over it. I was on the Mississippi river once, when I was like, 4 years old.
Y'all, it's OK to wash a cast iron skillet! Not in the dishwasher or by soaking it, but a little bit of soap and a gentle, non abrasive sponge are OK and won't destroy the seasoning. Soap IS your friend, but harsh cleaning products and abrasive sponges and steel wool are NOT.
I have have not tailgated. It is, of course, done a lot. I have been skinny dipping. We did it even in creeks with cousins and friends and mixed crowd. It was ok. Washed ONLY with like detergent. Ever since they stopped using LYE in soap you can wash it. But there is a procedure to re-season it. My wife is a yankee. Of COURSE she got one for a wedding pressent. Never used it.. I have got boiled peanuts that way. but I can make salty cardboard at home. I can eat a bunch but they don't have much flavor. My son loves them. I don't like racing... I have been to Brazelton GA once. My daughter knows drivers by name. (but then she had John Deere shower curtains.) I have been to the KY Derby. I grew up on the Ohio, not too far from the Mississippi. Yes I have been ON it. Stay at the Peabody Hotel and take a walk down to the river. (during the day!) Delta Queen, Belle of Louisville.
Diane, I am also not a racing fan. However, I went to the Indy 500 and I can tell you that being there is a whole different, amazing, experience. You should go to Talladegha as soon as you can.
Now, I clean my skillets with a steel sponge and occasionally with cast iron specific soap if it gets something bad built up. But, I had a roommate in grad school put my cast iron skillet in the dishwasher. It took a long time to get it reseasoned properly.
I have been to Talladega and the stories are so true. Not inclined to do that again but it's worth 1 visit. The only juke joint I've ever been to was in the middle of the bayou and the only way to get their was by boat. Fun but very sketchy all at the same time y'all.
If chitin's the same as what's in menudo?? Then yes, I went on a culinary journey, tried one bite of intestines in menudo. Has the most sad face. Can't stand intestines yet love love love menudo juice with garbanzo beans and fresh lime juice and homemade corn tortillas to dip in. It's so good, I feel like I'm in love :) -A
If you're going to have pancakes from a box, Pioneer is the way to go. My wife and I have eaten Pioneer Pancakes for over 25 years. Now, as far as any of the subject matter, "Ain't Never", except the skinny dipping in a natural body of water. That's a "Sure Have" for me.Oh, and tailgatin'. Yep to that. Drop the tailgate on our '80 Chevy Blazer and have a picnic.
Avery the Cuban-American I live in NASCAR country. I’ve been to Wilkesboro, Martinsville and Bristol but have never been to Charlotte as I like short tracks more.
Noooo! A JUKE joint was a bar, small or popular hangout that had a JUKEBOX. These smaller places couldn't afford bands but people would put coins in the machine to play their fav. record and dance to the Jukebox. Later they even had mini versions where you could put your coin in and select your song right from your restaurant booth. Time to Southern up, y'all.
I went to high school in Darlington, SC and Nascar was still coming 'round twice a year. Darlington is TINY! So on the race weekends, I didn't leave my house. I lived less than one mile from the track and heard EVERYTHING... ugh
Eric & Diane need their own show...they're precious!
Can you imagine a picnic with all these folks? It would be so much fun. The food would be amazing, the conversations would be hilarious, and it would be over way way too soon.
Or a tailgate!
Add a little moonshine and I guarantee there'd be a lot of hilarity had.
Everytime I watch these I think "I wish these people lived in my small town." I miss friendly people. And I live in Central Texas.
@Occam’s Razor Chitlins are good... Cookin chitlins is bad. Stanks up the whole house.

They can be fried also (like still in the shell). I love boiled peanuts!!! :)

Uh-uh, if your chitlins still have "stuff" in them, they weren't cleaned properly. You can't eat just anybody's chitlins.
Found that out the hard way! Ew!
@@MJAP123 We had them both ways. My Mama cleaned them thoroughly either way. You have to know what your doing.

If you watch mukbangers and ASMR , eating pig and cow intestines is common with the Asian communities. There are restaurants that specialize in them.

I agree with Diane! Nascar may not be a sport in my mind, but those who like it, do you!
Its a motorsport. Not a regular sport. Mud racing = motorsport, Mud Wrastlin'= sport! See the difference😎
Robert Bailey, I get it, but I never mentioned it being a "regular sport". I just didnt mention it was a motorsport. But think what you like.

After scrubbing, a cast iron skillet only needs to be reseasoned, that's all. The magic doesn't disappear.

Can't stand intestines yet love love love menudo juice with garbanzo beans and fresh lime juice and homemade corn tortillas to dip in. It's so good, I feel like I'm in love :) -A
Mississippi River? It's the Chattahoochee for me, I've been on many watetcrafts in my River...😂👌
Boiled peanuts...They're also good to buy at Trade Day ya'll.

If you're going to have pancakes from a box, Pioneer is the way to go. My wife and I have eaten Pioneer Pancakes for over 25 years.
Now, as far as any of the subject matter, "Ain't Never", except the skinny dipping in a natural body of water. That's a "Sure Have" for me.Oh, and tailgatin'. Yep to that. Drop the tailgate on our '80 Chevy Blazer and have a picnic.
Callie makes me swoon.
My dad got me into Nascar but I've never been to a live race. However I want to go to Talladega and Daytona to see a race. Peanuts are so good
Avery the Cuban-American I live in NASCAR country. I’ve been to Wilkesboro, Martinsville and Bristol but have never been to Charlotte as I like short tracks more.
Noooo! A JUKE joint was a bar, small or popular hangout that had a JUKEBOX. These smaller places couldn't afford bands but people would put coins in the machine to play their fav. record and dance to the Jukebox. Later they even had mini versions where you could put your coin in and select your song right from your restaurant booth.
Time to Southern up, y'all.
Heyyyyyyyyyy ya'll you can get boiled peanuts at Trade day!

I'll never eat chittlins, but I can make a great mess of collards and fry okra! Love Nascar and I have skinny dipped as a teenager.
I went to high school in Darlington, SC and Nascar was still coming 'round twice a year. Darlington is TINY! So on the race weekends, I didn't leave my house. I lived less than one mile from the track and heard EVERYTHING... ugh
ok...I was raised in the South...love it...What is a Watercraft????
I Have been to a talladega race and it’s very fun would recommend people to go.
