If you'd put in those berry clusters from that sumac in the background, you could have made a jelly without any lemon juice or pectin. It'd also have added more berry flavor and brought out the subtle flavors from the pears.
@McGieHomesteadAdventures I noticed it also! Just got done pickin' ours and the autumn olive. Will mix mine with sumac ,1st batch and second with fresh pressed apple juice! Boo hoo, I don't have a wood stove tho, sure miss the 'ole girl!
I had some sweet jelly with chillies added. The sweet and sour experience is better than you would imagine. I love tomato based chilli chutney too! Nicey and spicey 😂👍🏻
So much goodness from nature even though some say its bad. Its all in the knowledge of how to use it. Thanks for sharing Brother. You folks have a good day.
I bet that jelly tasted awesome ! We haven't tried to make any jam or jelly in several years . The oak tree by my driveway is having a Mast year I have never in 18 years ever seen it produce like it has done this year . I don't have any pigs to feed all the acorns to witch sucks . If the oaks around here produce like that the deer will be staying in the woods . Thanks for sharing and have a great day !
Mike, if poke berries can help with arthritis, can it help with psoriasis? Psoriasis medications are the same injections for arthritis. Embrel and Humera.
I’ve got a man with that condition taking them and keeping me posted on the results. So far he’s taking just a couple per day with no adverse reactions so he’s going to up the dosage slowly and see what happens! I’ll keep you posted!
Hey Mike ,,quick question .... do you not water bath your jam/jellies after you jar them ?? Noticed you just flipped 'em to let'em seal ... I just picked a bunch of olive up here (New England) and am going to make some jelly . I've done grape and cherry before and did the water bath method. Maybe it just doesn't last in your household and gets eaten fast enough ? 😊
Looks good, I didn't know that you couldn't do a large batch of jelly, but it doesn't set, doesn't make sense if you boil it hard you would think that would work but it doesn't, I figured like u do a large batch and get done faster but it didn't set What part of South Dakota does Bob live in? Just curious I live in Rapid City SD
Man your hedge rows look like a nature planted permaculture farm. Looks like I saw sumac, autumn olive and walnut in one brief split second screenshot. I have the same thing, but I helped nature out a little bit. But I do have a lot of autumn olive in the hedgerow along the back of my farm where I browse my goats. Yes it is invasive if unmanaged of course. Goats love it and they browse it down to the grown every year. I let it grow to about 5-6 feet and then turn my goats on it in midsummer, they take it to the ground and the cycle continues. But never ever did I know or consider the fruit to be edible or to be as nutritious as it is. Guess my goats are smarter than I am. 😂😂😂
Had to go back a watch this video again. Found a patch of autumn olive that the wildlife didn’t find, outside where the goats browse. I tasted them and I like the flavor. So I Believe I’ll make me a batch. Since I don’t have “old man Arthur”, I’ll be leaving the poke berries out and just adding the pear and some sumac berries as suggested by kenjohnsonUSA. I don’t eat much sugar these days. Got some signs of insulin resistance going on around my middle parts and diabetes runs in my family. But I can’t resist. All things in moderation. Right?😂😂😂
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures i would like to talk to you on a personal basis to learn more about the uses of poke and how to use it and how to prepare it.
I've tried to find you on social media. I'd love to collaborate with you on a switch. Florida has an invasive tree issue with Chinese Tallow Tree (aka Popcorn Tree). Your state has a problem with an invasive tree...Moutain Olive. I'd like to propose a collaboration between our channels where you send me a set weight of Mountain Olive where I send the same amount of Popcorn Tree. We'd smoke meat and compare tye differences. If this interests you, my email is in my channel information. We can discuss and you delete this comment afterwards. I look forward to hearing from you.

That is an excellent observation!

I wonder how autumn olive would taste using its wood to smoke meat. I recently tried popcorn tree and was surprised.
Tastes good
I had some sweet jelly with chillies added. The sweet and sour experience is better than you would imagine. I love tomato based chilli chutney too! Nicey and spicey 😂👍🏻
Sounds delicious.
I love jalapeño pepper jelly so I’m sure I’d love it!!!
So much goodness from nature even though some say its bad. Its all in the knowledge of how to use it. Thanks for sharing Brother. You folks have a good day.
I firmly believe that nature is less dangerous than man-made chemicals!
Good morning thank you for the video

I guess we should have talked to Beth into holding a pig on the way home!😂😂😂
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures lol . I wish gas was cheap so I could truck them down to you lol .
Bingo!🥳😜
🏆👍🏻
Nice job brother!
Morning Steve!
Oh yeah!!! Our brother from another mother!!!
The best mead I’ve ever made was spiced autumn olive.
Oh that sounds great!!!😋😋😋
Good morning!
Morning! How’s the weather in Texas today?
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures 73° at 6:06 AM and in the upper 90’s today. No rain as usual in Fort Worth, Tx.
looks good
It is!
Funny I’ve been eyeing all the autumn olives in my area lately, wondering what I can do with them besides letting the birds have them. Now I know!
Sounds great! Get er done!!!
Love it Thank you🌺🍍🌴🇺🇸✝️🤙🏽🫶🏽
You’re absolutely welcome!

Yes I’m not sure that this will last long, I’d recommend water bathing!

I don’t know if he wants me to put his location out there, but he’s 121 miles from you 😁
Wouldn't the boiling reduce the medicinal properties burning them off? I simmer. Great video.
I honestly don’t know
That looks delicious.
It is! It’s a great combination!

😂😂😂 goats definitely aren’t dummies!😂😂😂. But I like how you manage the bushes!!!
Berry good video 🤓🐝
Thank you 😋
Really enjoy your down to earth useful videos! Thanks!! May I ask what part you of the country you’re in? Im in southeast Missouri.
We’re in Tennessee!
Hope you have a great day and everyone is healthy 🙏, see you on the next video.
Thanks brother! I’m sure we’ll survive!😂😂😂
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures (I meant the misses.) 😉
That’s what I’m talking bout too😂😂😂
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures you Said "we'll survive" I know a country boy can survive. 🤣
Looks good. I may have to try adding the Polk berry to some of mine. I freeze all my berries till fall when it's cooled to make jelly.
That’s a super good idea! Love it!!!
You can cut way back on the sugar 😁 looks delicious!
Yes you can!! Thanks!
I need a couple of those autumn olive trees so i can make some jelly. Can you send them please???
😂😂😂 illegal!! Ask a bird to bring you some seeds!
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures ROL. A bird needs to be sent to Eastern NC.

Good stuff I wonder if it would be a good !!!! For a deer steak 🥩 just thinking outloud😊 thanks for sharing keep the cameras rolling from Florida .
Good thinking! I actually bagged a deer Sunday afternoon!
These days almost anything illegal is good 😂

How can I get a hold of you and where are you located
Depends on what you’re wanting!😂
