    Ya'll now I know why meat birds are usually white. It's because black birds leave small black dots everywhere after you've plucked out the feathers. I had to go in there with tweezers for a few hours to make him look pretty. For all of that work can I get a like please? 🥲I love you too. Happy Thanksgiving!!
    Below I've translated the recipe into modern directions. You can see an image of the original recipe (or receipt as they used to be called) at the end of my videos. Thank you and stay healthy out there ^_^ .
    To Stuff & Roast a Turkey or Fowl, 1796
    1 turkey, cleaned & ready to go
    1/2 pound of butter
    Rosemary, thyme & sage 3 tablespoons of each fresh & diced
    2 pounds of potatoes
    Flour, 2 tablespoons
    Salt & pepper to taste
    Peel your potatoes. Boil them till they are soft enough for a knife or fork to easily go through. Strain from the water & add to them 1/4 pound of butter, salt, pepper and 1 tablespoon each of diced rosemary, thyme and sage. Mash well with a potato masher until smooth. Rub a turkey generously with salt & pepper. Stuff its insides with the mashed potatoes until you've used them all up. Before placing inside of the oven sprinkle the top of the bird with a dusting of flour. Cook the turkey in a 350 degree oven for the length of time required for its size. This can vary. It should reach an internal temperature of 165°F in the breast and 175°F in the thigh. During cooking baste the turkey every 30 minutes in a mixture of 1/4 pound of melted butter, 2 tablespoons of your remaining herbs, salt & pepper.

      Next time boil it;
      The feathers and parasites will come right off sterile too. 🎉

      haha I made this same discovery last year! I got a turkey raised by a family member and it was a black turkey. it had all the black spots as well. they do no harm at all and I just left them.with white turkeys the same thing is there you just don't see it. It was the best turkey I had ever had! Better than any factory farmed store bought turkey for sure. Turkey eggs are also very very good, better than chicken eggs ,I always am excited when I can get my hands on a few of them!

    There was a show on PBS many years back called Frontier House. It took families from modern day, and put them in the open plains to build their homesteads from only the same methods and tools available in the early 1800's. Loved that show and love these videos showing how much simple life was and how great it must of been.

    • @EarlyAmerican
      @EarlyAmerican  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +31

      You know... I live alone and have done so for about 19 years. I never look at meat or poultry as undercooked, and I'll tell you why. In my experience, there are always fully cooked outer portions to enjoy, and when it comes to cooking leftovers, there is nothing better than meat or poultry that has a way to go before it is fully done. Seriously.... I like to cook, and I know proper food and what that entails. You can have a fully cooked meal and excellent leftovers if you plan it that way. Now... if I had 8 people to dinner and my bird was underdone...well...hey, at least we'd have time to open another bottle of wine, and what could be better than that?

    Brings back memories of growing up, when one day our dad decided the chickens weren't laying enough eggs due to age, so we processed all 33 chickens in one day. My four brothers and I had to do it assembly line style and will never forget the smell of dipping and plucking so many chickens at once. Mother was not impressed with the plan.

Cranberries with blood orange rined and dried cranberries. Baked yams and mashed potatoes and gravy from drippings and let us not forget......the pumpkins pie.

    The scene where you're plucking the turkey reminded me of my childhood - at the tender age of 6 years old, I was taught how to humanely kill poultry, and how to pluck the feathers off etc, I think it was a duck at first, then it was chickens. That being said, it set me up to have a real appreciation for where our poultry meats come from. 😊

Milked my miniature Nigerians, and make cheese. I love it, but ohhh...what a steep learning curve it's been! I have no one to teach me. I'm designing a cart to train my goats to pull, or, I'll find myself a miniature donkey and drive my 72 vw superbeetle or 76 vw van, less and less. I was definitely born in the wrong century! ❤

    Going from watching General Sam cook an entire Thanksgiving dinner, Turkey and all, in a microwave, to watching you two replicate the struggles of a 1796 family living out on the frontier…
    Forgive me, but I seem to have given myself a touch of whiplash.

    Today we're fast-paced, instant gratification. If cooking a turkey took this much effort today I believe most people would have a level of gratitude that's missing simply because of the effort put in. Even if something doesn't turn out the work involved can be rewarding, and I'm sure if this was done yearly or so the bugs would get worked out and the turkey would be flawless.
    The way it's cooking though, I think this is why stuffing was put in the bird. Helps maintain moisture and kind of self bastes. My grandfather born in the 1920s would always put home made stuffing in the turkey, both always turned out lovely. I know it's shunned now but I wouldn't trade those turkeys for anything! He passed in 2000 so I haven't had stuffing prepared in the turkey for almost a 1/4 century now but I remember them fondly.
