Baking The Strangest Chicken Pot Pie From 1805 |ASMR Historical Cooking| 2 Whole Chickens Pie

- Imagine throwing 2 whole chickens, bones and all, into a pan, baking it, then removing the crust yet daring to call that a pie? That's how meat pies were often baked 200 years ago. The paste (what we now call the pastry) was often just used as a cooking vessel to keep the food beneath moist. Some chose to not eat the paste at all, others such as myself enjoy dipping it in the gravy and having it on the side. Quite unlike modern chicken pot pie I'd say!

So what's the deal with tearing the pasty off (back then this was called the paste). In meat pies where the meat is being cooked bone in the paste is there mearly to keep the meat moist while cooking. This works better than any cast iron lid as the pasty soaks up water inside which ensures that the contents of the pie do not dry out. Unlike with modern pies, the paste was meant to be removed once done cooking. The meat would then be taken out to be cut up and served. The paste also served as a transportation vessel which was much lighter than cooking pots. This meant that you could transport your pies in a relatively clean and lightweight dish if you were to take it out. That is part of why meat pies were one of the most commonly given foods to prison inmates from visiting families. Easy to transport, stores well and you can even eat the paste it comes in.
Some chose to eat the cut up paste and serve it on the side while others threw it out/fed it to livestock. Sometimes these pastes were very simple and were nothing more than flour and water. Well I'm one of those individuals who enjoys dipping the paste in gravy so of course I had to keep it. This practice, which is definitely strange by today's standards, was 100s of years old by 1805 and didn't fall out of fashion till the mid Victorian period.
This is really my kind of cooking shcool
Thank you
Yummy. Food looks good too
Interesting cooking, but looked yummy. I agree about dipping crust in gravy, don't need to make biscuits 👍yum! Did ya close the door so your chickens couldn't see what you were cooking??! 🐥😬You should talk to them as you feed, they get to know your voice. A Michigander opinion✌️
I never realized that the "paste" was originally an actual lid that might even be discarded! Thank you for that bit of culinary history!
I’m so addicted to this channel. I love hearing all the nature sounds and the fire. I find the quiet therapeutic.❤️
I welcome you to my food channel. I hope you will like it .

Yes! I love it too
Me too
Facts
I like that it’s quiet when you are cooking. The world is too noisy, it is relaxing watching you cook.
The chickens are at the door saying..”hey, who’s in the pot?!” Love all these recipes.. I was finally able to find mushroom ketchup. Ty for these..watching them is my wonderful way to escape the busy world.
I welcome you to my food channel. I hope you will like it .
I agree! Me also!
Try 18th Century cooking by Townsend.. equally wonderful
The chickens lmaaoooo. That made me laugh out loud
@@mcmandy086 😁
Oh man, the crust is the best part! Watching those chickens come running at your voice was so adorable! Another wonderful video of life in the 1800's!
Coming to her to kill them to eat. NO.
Little knowing they were destined for the next pie 😨
Question: I thought that feeding rice to birds was bad for them as rice can swell and burst their stomachs.
Except remember, they had to pee and poop either in a chamber pot, then empty it and wash it. Or go to the outhouse. And no running water. No stove it seems. Not too crazy about the "good old days".
I bet depression and anxiety were less back then because you were busy living and being in nature.
Rest in peace to Ron's grandmother. This looks so good,and the chickens looked so cute running up to Justine at the end. Blessed Be :)
Oh, THAT cute one is next in line to be scheduled get the 'pasted' on top of 'not wasted' .
I appreciate what you do. One of the things this lifestyle would provide is a healthy perspective. Being busy with purposeful tasks would be a lot more meaningful than many might realize. Thank you!
This was a tough way of living but simpler and less complicated. It'd be a hard transition if this was once again the new norm for people. That'd being said I'd love it for a week or two to clear the mind.
The one time I made bread taught me to never waste it again. It took me half a day to make the dough and normally ppl forget that ( I don’t think I actually understood how wasteful I was being before but once you know you are more careful).
Eric very true.
The best ways often come from our older patrons, those were simpler times, but just down home goodness!
Anytime I make bread it comes out dry. I don't know what I do wrong. Even in an electric breadmaker it is still so dry nobody wants any and I can't say I blame them. I feel like I learned absolutely nothing about how to survive when I was in public school in Maine in the 1990's. So many of us would be in trouble if we lost luxuries like grocery stores, automobiles and electricity
@@xbrandi12345x most of the times of bread comes out dry, it's an off balance of too much flour or not enough liquid. Usually, the culprit is flour. Alot of recipes call, for example, 3 cups of flour and different climates, humidity may not require 3 cups, so instead add only 2 cups and work in what you may need from kneading and stirring. I learned the hard way as well. As far as bread machines, there's a specific order, usually liquid, fat, yeast go in first, then the dry on top of that (you can research your specific machine and it'll give you instructions how to layer the ingredients) , I really don't like the bread machine method (I've always had excellent results though), but to me it's invasive with my desire to make different things with it, it's an ornery thing to deal with. Hope this helps!
Yes having grandmas' that cook and saved their recipes for the family is a huge blessing for younger cooks. Thanks for sharing the paste recipe.
Awe that was so sweet giving honor to Ron’s Gma! Recipes are a true heritage. The recipe is the same tried and true crust my mommas mom used. Hope this finds you and Ron blessed as well!
They used the crust to create a seal that made the chicken so tender. Then ate it like flatbread or crackers. Quite the 1 dish dinner back then I’m sure.
Nice simple recipe. No fuss. Great to feed the family. That crust reminds me of British savory bakes
I welcome you to my food channel. I hope you will like it .
I always watch these videos before bed because they are so calming but I always get hungry watching and nothing satisfies because this is real cooking ! They look so delicious thank you Justine for your calming videos!
Love everything about your channel! The inclusion of family, traditional foods and cooking methods and all of the history! All of the hard work you both do to make this possible and the non-scripted conversation is real, awesome and fun! Thank you both so much...
Your grandma is a beautiful lady Ron and a great cook.Thank you for sharing her with us. May GOD continue to bless you all always.
Thank you Sharion Rayfield. Your pie crust recipe lives on!
May Ron’s precious Grandma rest in perfect peace. ❣️
Well that was definitely unusual! I bet you had to keep checking the recipe to make sure you were doing it correctly! Thank you for sharing Ron’s family recipe.
Oh, man, does that look delicious!! I had to write this one down! Beautiful video, as usual! Thank you so much for putting in the time and sharing with us so often!
Here is a cooking top. Add only half the chicken broth at first, then add the cream, then use the remaining broth to rinse out the cream container and add that to the mix. This way you won't waste any yummy cream.
That's a beautiful blue and white serving dish. What a lovely dedication to Ron's grandma.
Thank you! It was a gift. We couldn't have afforded it otherwise.
WOW!!! That meal looks sooooo yummmy!!! We will have to try the receipt!!! Thanks Justine!! ❤️
Bless Grandmas everywhere! ❤️🙏
Early American has become my favorite cooking channel. I love how you all follow the original recipes as told. Every ingredient as fresh as possible and with care. Thank you for sharing. This is wonderful.
You should be so proud of yourself Justin for this show and your expertise in all you do! A pleasure watching it ❤
My pie crust recipe,also! I found it in Aunt Bee’s Mayberry Cookbook and have making it for years.
I have that cookbook. Love Aunt Bee and the gang!
how cute ! little bacon girdles for the chickens.
The chicken looked so delicious, mouth watering! Another great meal prepared by you. I loved how the chickens came running to Justine. It was so sweet at the end when Justine dedicated the pie crust receipt to Ron’s beautiful grandmother. I love this channel!
That looks so delicious! The bacon, herbs, it’s like stewed chicken and I imagine the sauce over rice or with the pie crust pieces is awesome 👏
after seeing you say it reminds you of stewed chicken it made me realize it's not so weird after all. it was just the crust that was leading me astray 😊
Oh… bless Sharion for this recipe, and bless your heart for showing how to prepare it.
I love the idea of a dish like this made in keeping with the authenticity⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
So delicious, I want to try it myself.
10:49 What perfect rolling technique
Good time stamp there
Hello; new subscriber here! 👋😁 I have been watching the adventures of you and Ron on my TV (via our XBOX) for a couple of months, & then today I suddenly realized that I wasn't subscribed to this channel or Ron's Patriot channel, so my apologies, but I have now remedied that! 💕 As I mentioned in the comments on his channel, my family and Blackbeard's family actually knew each other here in coastal NC (In Bath and Beaufort) back in the day! 🌊
I have learned many interesting things by watching your two channels! 😊
Looks so delicious! You two are so cute. I love the simplicity and elegance.
Wow! This looks amazing! I love these videos so much. 😊
Ron is such a lucky man! You are the greatest woman alive on earth!!
Thank you for being so kind, James
I made this today. My husband and I so enjoyed it. Great taste. I crumbled a bit of paste in the gravy. I served with mashed potatoes and green beans. All was delicious. Thank you. I really enjoy both of your channels. 😊
That looks real good. You’re such a great cook. Love watching your channel.
Out here in the Dakotas 100 years ago the miners ate what was called "pasties" which were hand held meat pies wrapped in pastry. I always wondered where the word "pasty" derived from. Now I know, thanks.
Derived from Cornish pasties probably. Cornwall had plenty of mines in the 1800s and migrants from there could have headed west to do the same thing.
@@fallinginthed33p it is said that you'll find a Cornish man in every mine in the world. They traveled far and wide to go underground.
Medieval folk also ate pasties.
I learned about "pasties" from reading the Poldark series of books by Winston Graham. Set in Cornwall between 1783-1799 (don't bother with any books beyond the eighth).
WOW! That's a beautiful blue dish.
I adore this channel so calming and great to watch!! Thank you for sharing your content with us 💖
Thank you dear for your company and for watching!
You look so pretty
Thanks for the recipe delicious
Masak tidak memakai gas atau listrik. Bisa masak dengan senang dan nyaman untuk menyajikan makanan yang lezat

I came across this channel yesterday and I loveeeee it keep it up 95 percent couldn't live like this anymore. Thank you for the rich history lessons.
The pie turned out great. It looked so tasty! I also would not throw away the yummy crust!
I welcome you to my food channel. I hope you will like it .
That was not a pie. It was a chicken cooked in dough
I would have loved living like this! Hard work, I know but, goodness wouldn’t it be so nice and quiet!?! I love this channel! Thank you for all of your hard work and keep it up! You’re awesome!
Grandmas are the best! I don't have any grandmas left, but I surely do enjoy you sharing the receipts from yours! Thank you!🙏🥰🙏
So much love in the kitchen. Bless Sharion.
This looks awesome! Might make this for dinner this week! It just looks too good! Well done with another video!

I did!
It was funny! 🤣
Loved the drum!
Can’t watch y’all eat it; get so hungry watching you make it I have to eat something, which is inevitably disappointing compared to what you’ve prepared. It’s becoming a vicious cycle!
Hi! Is that a new dress? Justine looks so pretty today - love watching you cook over the hearth!
It's so relaxing watching you cook. Your chickens are so adorable!
That looks amazing,, different but delicious. Thank you for sharing..I enjoyed the video as I do all the others. So relaxing..love to hear the fire coming cracking and the sounds of peace. 🥰
To me the paste is the best part of the pie
The chicken looks great! I think the tribute to Ron's grandmother was great too.
I love these video's, so relaxing.. Thank You !!
wonderful video and food looked so good! ron looks alot like his grandma. im blessed to have had a mom and 2 grandmas who were wonderful cooks. take care and looking forward to next video!
This was the most interesting recipe! Looks absolutely delicious 😍
I welcome you to my food channel. I hope you will like it .
Just a quick note to let you know that yours is the first site that I have ever subscribed to! Ron's channel also. But, I have been enjoying the cooking videos so much, it takes me back to my childhood. We didn't do historic living, but, I grew up on a small farm in upstate New York where in the winter if the power went out we had to cook on the wood stove in the kitchen. But, unlike some of our neighbors we didn't go hungry because our home still had those vintage kitchen appliances. Modern people sometimes are crippled by the tech that has become so much apart of life.
Looks amazing! Definitely trying this one out. Crust looks delicious. A stellar video as usual.
Chickens were often cooked that way as they were a working animal, that is they were egg layers ond only when they were to old to lay anymore were they eaten, so they tended to be on the tough side, the males were Spayed, except the Rooster and you ended up with a Capon which were pricey.
so most chicken were "stewing chickens as that was a good way to make them tender.
by the way Have Ron make you a large cutting Board with a handle on both ends. it will make cleaning up easier and save that table of your from getting scared up. and when the food is done you can use it as a Serving "Board".
Love the videos! next time make a Venison roast as that tended to be the main type of meat, other the squirrel or rabbit or other small game. but Rabbit it easier to get at your local market.
do you have a Quern? its a small mill to grind grains, most homes that small made there own flour if thewy were in the Wilderness, that is 10 more more miles from town.
Thats enough from me for now!
I love watching you cook! It's kind of like watching my mom and she was the pie queen. The food looked great and I'm definitely gonna have to try bacon wrapped chicken! Thank you and good job!
I love that there is little or no talking. It helps concentrate on the activity. The dish is precursor to the crockpot. Love it
Awww that food looks simply delicious and the chickens look so cute running to you justine!!
Bravo on that dinner.
Rest In Peace Rons' Grandma. Chickens looked divine as did the gravy. Hmmm, I think I would eat the paste as well because I don't like wasting food.
I love pot pies! Beautiful scenery enjoy!
This is my favourite type of ASMR - you don't fanny around with little tip-taps and all that nonsense. Just getting the job done in a way that's sensible and time efficient (for the period!)
Thank you!
Thank You for sharing ☺️ I love all your videos there so relaxing and I just Love food
I’m so curious if that crust is flaky or not!! Beautiful job, Justine!! 🍗 🥧♥️
Как интересно смотреть ваши фильмы❤️ Я отдыхаю, когда смотрю😊🌺
Я тоже залипла на этом канале 🙂. Так всё атмосферно, неторопливо и аж запахи чувствуются). При наших кухонных гаджетах, мы ещё жалуемся) пожить бы в такой исторической деревеньке)
This reminds me of Chinese "Beggar's chicken". A whole chicken is marinated, seasoned, and stuffed; then it's wrapped in leaves and then in clay and baked. The result is a very tender, moist chicken.
Hi , funny its not that uncommon in my world, its a beautiful dish, we use wild venison and darker meat with a darker mixture to the chicken. One of our staple dishes' even to this day in 2022
thank you for sharing a true heritage. Love your channel🥰😘
Other than the bone-in whole chickens, this recipe is a standard chicken-pot pie! YUM! Even using whole oven-baked chickens in a savory cream sauce would be scrumptious because the meat would just fall off the bones! Awesome job Justine!
Yes, the old nursery rhyme., "four and twenty blackbirds baked in a pie...."
I love this! I'm vegetarian and I've made a few of your dishes meatless. I love the creativity that we can experiment with!
The sausages and apples have been my fav so far!
I like vegan sausage, personally. It's flavorful to cook with. 😋
@@honorsilverthorne7227 It is! Plant based meats have come a long way!
@@HappyHeathen13
Yep. I went vegan six years ago, and the mock-meat industry has grown by leaps and bounds since then.
Wow 😮😮😮 Very, very crazy way of going about things!! Of course it makes more sense to cook your chickens in a covered iron pot, (but I understand the weight issue of transporting the pot, etc, etc) then de-bone them, then put the meat&veggies in a crust and bake. I truly appreciate tho, that you stayed true to the original "receipt"/recipe. Well done Justine! 🖒🖒💕
I just discovered this channel a couple of weeks ago and I am so hooked! Thank you for doing this Early American!
GREAT channel, when the next lockdown comes I'm going to be making several of your dishes, they look delicious.
How much fighting was there over who was next in line at the communal oven I wonder.
Interesting that the whole chicken is in the pie. With all that butter in the crust, it had to taste wonderful!
Obsessed with this channel. No talking, no loud music, quiet, crackle of fire. Love this.
Watching your channel soothes me as I lay in bed fighting a cold. I like the sights and sounds and imagine the smells. Can't wait to get better so I can start cooking!
I imagine it smelled very good while this was being made.
That looks delicious. I’ve never thought to wrap the chickens in bacon…will give it a try in the fall. As always, great content 😊
I welcome you to my food channel. I hope you will like it .
yes everything is natural ad the living style is so good the way of represent is so amazing.
This is so nice, thank you for sharing! Keep it up 😊
Today I showed my housekeeper how I make peach cobbler and made a "sugar" pie with the extra dough. My dough is similar to yours, except I don't use egg, I use lard. My housekeeper is a very nice young woman, but unfortunately she did not learn the art of cooking. I have been giving her instruction to help broaden her talent. She is a very good student and is eager to learn more.
She looked like a sweet lady. This looks so good.
Thank you Justine well done. A wonderful dedication to Ron's grandmother im sure she is very proud of him, may she RIP.
God bless you both💕

Omg I think I've found my new favorite channel!!! Love your vids.
Looks delicious 😋😋😋😋
Seems ashamed to throw that crust away. It looked so yummy
Food looked great in the end. @10:47 is the best part of the video LOL.
Could watch this all day. Just love it,so interesting to watch.
A new outfit! Where do you get all your clothes?
You noticed!
@@EarlyAmerican yes, it's beautiful!
That looked delicious.Do you live like this full time or part time?? I think it`s a much nicer and more natural way to live than modern living.
May God richly bless you both. Thank you for these wonderful videos.
Love the way you showed how early people used to live, that is a true art with each and every detail. ❤️
Gorgeous lady
