Mom kept little cedar pieces for quick starts. She called it turning on the stove. We had an outside wood stove for summer and for boiling sap. What surprised Mom was her stove was made in 1890 and Sears still had parts in 1978. Canning was done on both stoves.
Thanks Boss: Brings back memories of my youth. Canadian Thanks giving smell of home made bread & a turkey big enough to feed 12. The light smoke aroma of a well cooked turkey, with all the fixings. Thanks for reigniting those feelings Brian 77
Nothing on this Earth can quite compare to the smell of bread baking or a casserole cooking in the oven of a wood cookstove. Bakers Choice Is what I have. Got to love it. All the best Boss and Boss lady
Wow yes Sir and yes Mam that is the Cadlac of wood cook stoves we have a friend that cooks all year round on her Kitchen Maid and have tasted some mighty good fixings thanks for showing us all those little details. (100 points PLUS) the Morins in Milo, Maine
That was great. I am enjoying my coffee this morning, watching your video in an off grid cabin. I ground the beans by hand, heated the water on the stove and an enjoying the peaceful sounds of the stove. Thank you for making your videos. I enjoy everyone of them.
you always keep me smiling i like your ideas i have wood cook stove that i fire up my mom had a home comfort she gave thirty five dollars for it that was the good old days.
Your wood cook stove videos is how we found you, almost two years ago now, I think. We were in the market and ended up buying a Kitchen Queen 480. Now I’m not a materialistic person, but I’d like to see someone try to take my cook stove away from me. Lol. They would have a fight on their hands. I just love mine. I named her Queen Bess. I really appreciate your video; I learned a couple of things. Ironically, our first meal was Thanksgiving also-two years ago. And we opted for both glass doors, so I could see inside the oven as well. Two other things we purchased was the rear heat shield and the summer grate. Sounds strange I know, but it’s really helped me adapt after our move to NC. So glad you made this video. I wouldn’t have thought to move the hot coals away from the oven vent. And I’m going to start shutting down the front draft lever all the way. Thanks for the great video.
Very informative! I have often wondered how all of that worked. Baking buttermilk biscuits in one of these is now been added to my bucket list! Great video JC.
out standing vid. thank you. I am a truck driver and when ever I am in your neck of the woods I think about yeh. some day it will be me, living in my barn. thanks for the vids.
AWESOME!!! Is the only way to describe this video!! Thanks Boss!!Your killing us with not being able to see the new homestead inside or out!!!! lol Thanks Again
Just found your channel. I’m 65 and just purchased my first Wood burning cookstove. Kitchen Queen 550. I am only about 2 hours north of Crofton KY, where these stoves are made, so I made an appt. and gave them a visit. Made by the Amish in a quiet little community. I spent about 2 hours there and had a very nice visit where the young man answered all if my questions. I had spent a good 6 months looking at various types of wood cook stoves before deciding on this. I did talk to Father God for advice. I was drawn to this stove. Well, I didn’t realize where Crofton was until I made my first call to the sale department. Isn’t that something... So Monday, February 15, 2021, I called the sales rep, who is in Knoxville TN and placed the order for exactly what I wanted. Due to the high demand, it will be 8 to 10 weeks for delivery. I’m not off the grid, but since I moved to the country, I knew I would need a backup plan. So, this type of heat serving multiple uses is a great addition. I’m excited for this new adventure. I enjoyed your video. Thank you!
I hope you enjoy your 550. I've heard they made a lot of changes in the design from when they made the 380 that I have. I love my 380. It's perfect for our needs and serves us well. Best of luck to you :-)
JC, I used your Zuchinni Lasagne recipe last weekend. I’d never made lasagna before, but I’ll tell you this. It was perfect. My Girl Friend loves it, the left overs my daughter loved and I loved it. Thanks for your video. I was able to remember everything you said and made it from memory.
Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!! You made my weekend, Boss! This is a video to download and keep, so I can re-watch it to stay inspired towards my dreams of living in rural America. And then someday following in your footsteps of making my own Kitchen Queen video to share! BTW, thank you for the video tour of Miller's Country Store where you introduced us to those propane wall lamps by Midstate Lamp LLC. I tracked those down and are going into my home up North for emergency lighting. Thanks again, JC. God bless!
The house where I was a child had a similar stove. On the coldest nites in upstate NY I would get out of bed and start the kitchen wood/coal stove. A couple curtains over the doors and I was comfortable in a big chair next to the stove. The place had a coal fired furnace in the cellar that would barely keep the plunbing from freezing. Parents did not care and Mom appreciated the coffee water already boiling when she got up.
Where I go on vacation in the summer, there are 3 cabins with wood cookstoves. they are great to cook on. waking up in the morning and starting the fire to make a nice cup of coffee is so pleasant.
Whenever I see a wood oven,I'm anxious to get home,but I'm satisfied to see the video as a substitute because it's hard to get into a house in downtown Korea.좋은 영상 감사합니다.
That's a nice stove Boss, thanks! We've been experimenting at the cabin with baking right inside the firebox of the wood stove. I've done a number of foil meals and even baked some bread! Lots of fun on a cold winter day.
Great tutorial and presentation bud. Well done. I cook, heat water and bake on a regular one all winter with the help of a dutch oven. Love to own that KQ though. Nice that you mentioned not to use wet wood from outside. That can also cause thermal shock and crack the firebrick in the stove. Anyway my friend many thanks as always. Loving the NH cabin videos. Hope you'll keep them coming. Take care.
So since you like to cater to your youtube friends. I have a family of four let me know when you can stop by with a fresh cooked wood stove meal. Also my basset hound can eat his weight in meat so dont forget him please. LOL Thanks for the video
That's one more really nice stove. I can just imagine the smell of a fresh loaf of bread baking in that oven. That will warm your soul up really quick. Stay cozy snuggly warm up there, as we are trying to do here in the frozen south of North Carolina. We have recently had single digit weather here, and we are not used to that. However, we have survived thus far with our gas logs! They make life cozy and simple. However, they will never be able to compare to the warmth and coziness of a wood fired stove. Journey On!
Nicely done. You covered everything that some of us take for granted. I find myself giving the abbreviated version of your video everytime I see a wisp of smoke a visitor lets out while enjoying firing my stove. Later and enjoy life.
thebossoftheswamp Hey sir boss I have never replied to your videos but I've watched everyone. Hope Frankie and the lady you're okay. Building my own cabin starting in May wish you were there to help. But I have 5 boys in the construction industry and I spent many many years there myself I'll try and keep in touch hate to see you leave TH-cam with this many and fun things that you've done. Great video going to get me one of those in my cabin. Sincerely Mark and Kimber
Great video! I like the looks of that Kitchen Queen. If my 1950’s Gothic Wehrle ever gives out, I’m buying one. Y’all take care, the ice storm is on the way.
Yes Sir, if we lived back in NH this would definitely be a stove for us. But not much call for it in FL. LOL. We have had several fires in our little stone fireplace this winter. Looks like we may get another cold snap starting this weekend!! Stay warm up there Boss.
This is my third BL video, all because of his demeanor! THANK YOU Sir! "And now,... I'm gonna go mutilate some Wal-Mart stainless steel pots.. UH HAHA !!" 😉 that was the hook... lol I just subscribed a few moments ago sir. And in reading comments here and there, I send you good vibes after reading of Frankies passing. I bid you a peaceful year. Stay upbeat, it works! ALL the best to you, from dannydan
Yet again great video with NO BS content, I just turn my son on to your chanel that lives like you and he loves it. You need you throw in your signature saying Yes-Sir a bit more, we all love hearing it... Until your next upload.
Your 2017 Kitchen Queen is more user friendly than my 1930 Home Comfort. I need to tend my fire more often and the dampers are trickier to use. The KQ burns cleaner and more evenly. I have to scape down the "clean out" monthly, to keep the oven draft free flowing.That said, I do enjoy using a piece of history and have it down to a science. Very gratifying to master this old fashioned art and tasty! KQ worth the investment. Thanks JC!
Well I read all the comments and replies. Wow. Lots of mention about Frankie, wood and recipes. Pretty simple here. Just have a blessed year and can’t wait for the oatmeal recipe. : )
Hi J.C. nice surprise this morning. Great video, takes me back to my childhood as my Mom was cooking on such a wood stove. The only I was missing was my buddy Frankie. Hope everything is fine with him :D Wish you all the best my friend and God Bless.
I know nothing about wood burning stoves, but seeing you with yours makes me want one... thanks for another great tutorial JC! Now on to the next one...
I love a wood fired kitchen stove. Takes me back to my youth at my aunt Violet's home. A farming family that lived in northern Michigan. She always cooked the best pies. Thanks for sharing
Beautiful stove. Thanks for the demo. Have you heard of the Eco Fan? Doug & Stacy use one. They just gave a great demo about using the ECO Fan used for the top of the stove which helps circulate the heat. The Amish use it too.
I never found the need for one because the heat seems to circulate just fine in here on it's own. Those fans are pretty cool but expensive and I'd rather put the money someplace else. Neat little gadget though :-)
Great Vid, Kitchen Queen Stove in adage: building a better mouse trap. Heat and gases of combustion travel under the oven for a more even cooking, not like stoves of yesteryear where heat travels over the top and down the side, also that over heats one side of oven on firebox side. Rule of Soiled Fuel Combustion is called: The Three Tees, aka Time Temperate and Turbulence... Myself back in the day fired High Pressure Coal Boilers and Garbage Incinerators too, raked and shoveled a lot of ash.
I've never cooked on a wood stove. Saw my grandma use hers tho. I'd love to try some day. I grew up in the hills of Ky and we had a big ole coal stove in the front room. When dad ran out of coal, he'd use wood. Loved the video. Missed Frankie.
I always learn a lot with your videos. Very informative , the way that you walk us thru the steps.You explain things with such clarity and sharing your experience certainly helps us. The only complaint that I have is Frankie wasn't around. Love that Border Collie .
Hey JC. I don't see any recent views . Do consider putting this out again for viewing. With so many folks at home and some out of work, a wood cook stove could help out many households. Of course there needs to be a safe chimney either already existing or installed, but I have been in a lot of houses where it was obvious a cook stove had once graced the kitchen. Our 1930 Home Comfort heats 1,000 sq. ft. I can cook, bake, heat hot water . So either a good used one or a new one can be a real help over this winter. Hope you and Lori are well underway for winter. How was your trip to NY? Hope you are feeling ok. You both have worked hard. Its been quite the journey, ever since you originally left NH for NY. All the best! ~ Diane & Jim
We are doing well. All our firewood is done and most of the garden has been pulled up. The canning is done also except for meat. I find it sad that MOST people who have a wood cookstove in their house, rarely and sometimes never use it for cooking. Most of the antique ones are used as home decor. So sad ;-/
Nice job and very timely!!! We have a Pioneer Princess still waiting in the box for our summer kitchen to be completed! Our learning curve will be reduced thanks to you!!! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the tutorial J.C.. Love the addition of the glass on the fire box. I could sit and watch that all night.
I watch it from my pillow haha
LOL
Backwoods logic is back! I missed a lot!
It was a busy year but things are getting back to normal now :-)
My Aunt cooked on a wood burning stove all her life. Boy could she cook, can food & bake 💜💜 Great memories...thanks 😁😁
Woodstove cooking is the best. Never have to worry about losing power and not be able to cook. You are an inspiration. Thank you.
Mom kept little cedar pieces for quick starts. She called it turning on the stove. We had an outside wood stove for summer and for boiling sap. What surprised Mom was her stove was made in 1890 and Sears still had parts in 1978. Canning was done on both stoves.
Thanks Boss: Brings back memories of my youth. Canadian Thanks giving smell of home made bread & a turkey big enough to feed 12. The light smoke aroma of a well cooked turkey, with all the fixings. Thanks for reigniting those feelings Brian 77
Gotta love it :-)
Amazing a stove that size can heat the entire house, in sub-zero temps!! It's worth every penny. Boss, stay warm.
It has earned its keep for sure :-)
Nothing on this Earth can quite compare to the smell of bread baking or a casserole cooking in the oven of a wood cookstove. Bakers Choice Is what I have. Got to love it. All the best Boss and Boss lady
Couldn't agree more my friend :-)
Nice stove that brings back many real old memories and I do mean old
Wow yes Sir and yes Mam that is the Cadlac of wood cook stoves we have a friend that cooks all year round on her Kitchen Maid and have tasted some mighty good fixings thanks for showing us all those little details. (100 points PLUS) the Morins in Milo, Maine
That was great. I am enjoying my coffee this morning, watching your video in an off grid cabin. I ground the beans by hand, heated the water on the stove and an enjoying the peaceful sounds of the stove. Thank you for making your videos. I enjoy everyone of them.
No time like cabin time :-)))
안녕하세요.
I am so happy to see you have a happy energy.I hope you will always live happily with Frankie.
감사합니다.
Thank you
you always keep me smiling i like your ideas i have wood cook stove that i fire up my mom had a home comfort she gave thirty five dollars for it that was the good old days.
I just scored a Pioneer Maid in the back of a barn for 60 bucks! I have wanted one ever since we started watching your videos Boss!!
the chimney thermometer is really a great addition to boss it keeps my mind at ease.
Your videos are my absolute favorite! I could just sit and binge watch them for hours.
Thank you Mary :-)
me also
Same😄👌🏻⭐️
I always feel better after watching your videos. Your a true gift, and it's wounderful of you to share yourself with us.
Thank you

I usually run my front draft at the halfway point but all stoves are different.
Great video Boss you should do a walk through of your 24x24 cabin
I will when it's done.
Literally was thinking of watching your videos when I got an email saying you uploaded one...another good one thanks boss
Thank you for saying so :-)
Wow!!! The Kitchen Queen is a dream!!! God bless Boss.
God Bless
Awsome video we have a kitchen queen 480 love cooking on it that's all we use most of the year. Can't wait for more cooking videos!!
Oh boss, I am so glad I have found you doing a kitchen queen video..
God bless you and your family
From your fan.
Very informative! I have often wondered how all of that worked. Baking buttermilk biscuits in one of these is now been added to my bucket list! Great video JC.
JD....great to see you again..thank you for the video.
My pleasure :-)
I love that stove! Someday before I die, I'm gonna get me one! Awesome video!👍
Put it on the old credit card....when I die I want the check to the undertaker to bounce.
out standing vid. thank you. I am a truck driver and when ever I am in your neck of the woods I think about yeh. some day it will be me, living in my barn. thanks for the vids.
AWESOME!!! Is the only way to describe this video!! Thanks Boss!!Your killing us with not being able to see the new homestead inside or out!!!! lol Thanks Again
You'll see it when I'm ready to show it haha
thank you for sharing......
Nice overview. I'm gonna have a wood burning cook stove in my remote cabin when I build It! It's still in dream mode but one day!

Only thing to add is to keep water on the stove to add humidity back to the room... great vid and love our wood stove ✔
The kettles are on 24/7 :-)

I don't need a wood stove but now I want one. Love your videos.
Great video! Thanks for your time and sharing tips for cooking on the Kitchen Queen. I can see the joy of you have cooking on it.
As always awesome instructions think you missed your calling boss you woulda made a great teacher glad your enjoying life for what it is
Thank you
That's a nice stove Boss, thanks!
We've been experimenting at the cabin with baking right inside the firebox of the wood stove. I've done a number of foil meals and even baked some bread! Lots of fun on a cold winter day.
Sounds great. Done a lot of that myself over the years :-)
I've always wanted one unfortunately not conducive to my house but do have a wood stove in my basement. Thanks for the demo.😎
My Mother baked and cooked on a Sears Kenmore wood stove with the reservoir . She sent a order to sears form parts and rebuilt the firebox.
Nice stove Boss
oh how I LOVE the kitchen queen! THANKS JC!
Great tutorial and presentation bud. Well done. I cook, heat water and bake on a regular one all winter with the help of a dutch oven. Love to own that KQ though. Nice that you mentioned not to use wet wood from outside. That can also cause thermal shock and crack the firebrick in the stove. Anyway my friend many thanks as always. Loving the NH cabin videos.

Thanks buddy and yes, I will continue to post on Utube but will have some cool add ons on the patreon page :-)
Love that stove JC! I very much enjoy your videos. You and Lori and Frankie have a nice day! God Bless you all.
I love your new wood stove... thanks for those great explanations, JC.
So since you like to cater to your youtube friends. I have a family of four let me know when you can stop by with a fresh cooked wood stove meal. Also my basset hound can eat his weight in meat so dont forget him please. LOL Thanks for the video
FORGOT TO SAY WE LOVE YOUR VIDEOS...BEST TO YOU!!
Another great video, JC. God Bless and stay warm, my friend.
God Bless :-)
That's one more really nice stove. I can just imagine the smell of a fresh loaf of bread baking in that oven. That will warm your soul up really quick. Stay cozy snuggly warm up there, as we are trying to do here in the frozen south of North Carolina. We have recently had single digit weather here, and we are not used to that.

It was 55 degrees yesterday and dropping to -6 tonight. Crazy weather here on the mountain :-o
Stay warm :-)
Awesome information!!! Thank you very much!! Take care 🙂🐕
I've been wanting one of these for months now, I just need to figure out shipping to Europe :-)
Great video Boss, thanks for sharing.
Thanks for sharing again. Great video to drink my coffee with.
Having my coffee while I read this :-)
Good morning to you.
Nicely done. You covered everything that some of us take for granted. I find myself giving the abbreviated version of your video everytime I see a wisp of smoke a visitor lets out while enjoying firing my stove. Later and enjoy life.
another awesome video. Great backwoods logic.
Drooling!!! That stove is to die for!! Great learning video! Thank you.
well thats just good back woods logic ! classic. thanks
Great video Boss-Man. Thanks so much!!
My pleasure :-)

Hey sir boss I have never replied to your videos but I've watched everyone. Hope Frankie and the lady you're okay. Building my own cabin starting in May wish you were there to help. But I have 5 boys in the construction industry and I spent many many years there myself I'll try and keep in touch hate to see you leave TH-cam with this many and fun things that you've done. Great video going to get me one of those in my cabin. Sincerely Mark and Kimber
That is really fun to watch. Hope someday to try it. Thanks . I'll watch more
Great video! I like the looks of that Kitchen Queen. If my 1950’s Gothic Wehrle ever gives out, I’m buying one.
Y’all take care, the ice storm is on the way.
Putting chains on the ranger soon :-)
Yes Sir, if we lived back in NH this would definitely be a stove for us. But not much call for it in FL. LOL. We have had several fires in our little stone fireplace this winter. Looks like we may get another cold snap starting this weekend!! Stay warm up there Boss.
Boss,
Fantastic.... I love that stove and I love your enthusiasm.
Thank you :-)
This is my third BL video, all because of his demeanor! THANK YOU Sir! "And now,... I'm gonna go mutilate some Wal-Mart stainless steel pots.. UH HAHA !!" 😉 that was the hook... lol
I just subscribed a few moments ago sir. And in reading comments here and there, I send you good vibes after reading of Frankies passing. I bid you a peaceful year. Stay upbeat, it works! ALL the best to you, from dannydan
Great video. My dream is to have a wood stove one day. Thank you for sharing
I enjoyed your demonstration of your stove it seem to work very good and I’ll be watching for some more have a good day God bless
Thank you and God Bless :-)
Yet again great video with NO BS content, I just turn my son on to your chanel that lives like you and he loves it.
You need you throw in your signature saying Yes-Sir a bit more, we all love hearing it...
Until your next upload.
Thanks for sharing my channel. I appreciate that... Yessah :-)
Your 2017 Kitchen Queen is more user friendly than my 1930 Home Comfort. I need to tend my fire more often and the dampers are trickier to use. The KQ burns cleaner and more evenly. I have to scape down the "clean out" monthly, to keep the oven draft free flowing.That said, I do enjoy using a piece of history and have it down to a science. Very gratifying to master this old fashioned art and tasty! KQ worth the investment. Thanks JC!
The antiques certainly have their charm. I loved my Crawford and there's things I certainly miss about it.
Good vlog very informative bless you all
Blessings to you too Mary :-)
Wish I could have/afford one, right now. Great video on how to.
The 380 is a top contender to replace our old Fawcett Charm. Thanks for the video.
loved it!! Makes me want to get a slab of bacon and a book and watch the fire roll!!
Wonderful how to bossman.
Well I read all the comments and replies. Wow. Lots of mention about Frankie, wood and recipes. Pretty simple here. Just have a blessed year and can’t wait for the oatmeal recipe. : )
I see on the town site that you have had 43 inches of snow. Glad I am well south. Great video on the wood stove.
It's half way between my knee and my hip already.
Hi J.C. nice surprise this morning. Great video, takes me back to my childhood as my Mom was cooking on such a wood stove. The only I was missing was my buddy Frankie. Hope everything is fine with him :D Wish you all the best my friend and God Bless.
Great instructions video. Awesome! Greetings from Andreas on Off Grid Sweden
Greetings back to you :-)
Great how to. Stay warm and always look forward to your updates.
I know nothing about wood burning stoves, but seeing you with yours makes me want one... thanks for another great tutorial JC! Now on to the next one...
Thanks for the video really like your stove
Love your Kitchen Queen. You need to make something in a Dutch Oven on your new stove.
Kitchen Queen Wood Stove should pay you for this advertisement. God Bless.
I love a wood fired kitchen stove. Takes me back to my youth at my aunt Violet's home. A farming family that lived in northern Michigan. She always cooked the best pies. Thanks for sharing
Another great vid. I am building this year, maybe add a Kitchen Queen!
Good plan :-)

I absolutely love this stove :-)
I've never cooked on a wood stove. Saw my grandma use hers tho. I'd love to try some day. I grew up in the hills of Ky and we had a big ole coal stove in the front room. When dad ran out of coal, he'd use wood. Loved the video. Missed Frankie.

Frankie's on holiday again :-)
Nothing like good backwoods logic!😊
Great video❤️
Great video Boss, very interesting 👍😊
Hello from Timmins On Canada! I'm new to watching TH-cam videos and came across yours. Got hooked right away, love the life style.
Thank you and welcome to my channel Doug :-)
Hey JC. I don't see any recent views . Do consider putting this out again for viewing. With so many folks at home and some out of work, a wood cook stove could help out many households. Of course there needs to be a safe chimney either already existing or installed, but I have been in a lot of houses where it was obvious a cook stove had once graced the kitchen. Our 1930 Home Comfort heats 1,000 sq. ft. I can cook, bake, heat hot water . So either a good used one or a new one can be a real help over this winter. Hope you and Lori are well underway for winter. How was your trip to NY? Hope you are feeling ok. You both have worked hard. Its been quite the journey, ever since you originally left NH for NY. All the best! ~ Diane & Jim
We are doing well. All our firewood is done and most of the garden has been pulled up. The canning is done also except for meat. I find it sad that MOST people who have a wood cookstove in their house, rarely and sometimes never use it for cooking. Most of the antique ones are used as home decor. So sad ;-/
Nice job and very timely!!! We have a Pioneer Princess still waiting in the box for our summer kitchen to be completed! Our learning curve will be reduced thanks to you!!! Thanks for sharing!
Great video Boss!!!!👍
Thank you Andrew :-)
Excellent video. Thanks for the information. I’m hoping to get one in my next house. It really is beautiful. TFS. Stay warm and God Bless. ~Lisa
God Bless
I just bought one from, wait for it...Miller's country store in Burke N.Y. I live just down the road....can't wait for delivery
Awesome. Good luck with your new stove -)
