Karen Jones, thank you so much for volunteering your time in showing us how to be the not just a great wife, mother, grandmother, sister etc…also, on behalf of my husband thank you showing me how to be a better wife for my husband by becoming a better cook and by helping me be more appreciative of what he does while has at work. THANK YOU!

I just happened upon your channel today. It reminds me so much of me cooking for my family, waiting on my husband to come home from work, and having our meal together. My children are grown and on their own and I lost my husband, so it’s just me and I seldom cook a meal anymore. But what beautiful memories!! ❤

Hey there Mom it's me Cindy and I love your show your fantastic keep on keepin on❤😊

Thank you Karen for the showing the viewers how wonderful home-cooked meals can be! It’s not hard to cook! I’ve always heard people say that cooking is sooo hard and that’s why they eat out all the time! But that’s not true!! If people can read, they can cook!! I learned some cooking skills from watching my Mother & my Aunts! But now, I was tired of the same dishes over and over, but with cookbooks, videos like yours and some of the others…I have really enjoyed cooking again! Me & my husband are retired so it’s just us for me to cook for. Cooking for two, is a lot different than cooking for a family! But when I make a stew, a pot of pinto beans or things like that, we always freeze about half of it. Then next time we want it, all I do is thaw it out and heat it up and dinner is ready!! Thanks again Karen! I wish my husband liked boiled cabbage as much as I do!! I sure miss it!! My mother-in-law made a stew one time and put cabbage in it. She invited us over for dinner that night. My husband went back for seconds and said multiple times how delicious that was!! I was furious because he always told me that cabbage smells bad when it cooks & tastes bad eating it!! When we got home, I told him that wasn’t long onions, like his mom had told him, and I told him it was cabbage! He called her on the phone to ask her! She told him yes, it was cabbage! So that has gone into my stew ever since!! (He never says a word about cabbage as long as it’s in a stew!). Thank you Karen! NORMA COLLINS FROM TEXAS

just like my mom used to cook.....watching you makes me feel warm and comfortable. Thank you for making all of us watchers feel at home.

Karen..if you lay a wooden spoon across the pot it wont boil over. I do it all the time. It works!!!🥰

Dear Karen I have only recently come across your very channel. I am enthralled as these are recipes I've only ever heard about, seen in films/TV or read about in books. I certainly would never turn down a dinner invitation from you! So many times when you've held your cooking up to the camera, I've thought, 'Please pass it through the screen!' It's a treat watching you (and the appearances from your husband and family members). Sending love and appreciation from the UK 🇬🇧❤️

Loved the uncut version and seeing you at your stove. I made your chili yesterday and it was SO DELICIOUS!!!! Will use your recipe from now on. Thanks so much!

Karen, you make my kind of meals. The only difference is in the gravy....I use a dash of Worcestershire Sauce and a heaping spoonful of pure horseradish instead of the balsamic vinegar. I know your hubby is going to be so grateful for this meal. I can almost see the smile on his face. Thank you ever so much for sharing this cooking demo...I think it is helpful to your your younger audience to see it doesn't take that long to prepare a whole meal. And it is a great reminder to us seniors to cook this up as well and freeze the extra meat portions for a day when we might not feel like cooking. Have a Blessed day.

Thank you Karen for this lovely, cooking video. I feel like I just got back from cooking class! A wealth of cooking tips and "know how" in food preparation. The hamburger steaks look divine! You are a treasure and blessing to your family and us all. I know you love to cook, but it's a lot of work and standing, not to mention the "clean up". Rest up sweet lady, and take care🧡

Thank you for your time. Thanks for your dedication to us.

Hello Karen…I take two small safety pins and pin a hand towel on my top as a apron,😂 Love watching you and hearing how you enjoy cooking and making your hubby happy. Bless the both of you and your so appreciated. Have a wonderful Valentine’s Day !

I keep a nice size pretzel plastic on my counter with a grocery plastic bag every day for scraps. End of day I throw it out and put a new one in for tomorrow. It’s so handy. I keep a pan of hot dish soapy water in my sink to keep my cloth and hands clean when I’m cooking. After meal done . I put my used spoons, spatulas, forks etc in that water for a nice rinse before I do dishes. You cook like I do. Easy, happy, and with a smile.

Looks really good, love simple meals like that. Your husband is a very lucky man!!

Yummy, that's a comfort food meal. Thanks for sharing your recipes Karen. 🙂❤️

I just love it when you just look at us, give us a quick smile, and then raise your shoulders. I just plain love you so much. I wish I was in your welcoming and cozy kitchen chatting away while soaking up all of your knowledge. For me, you're cooking is the best way of cooking...comforting and made with lots of love! I'm so grateful your channel popped up. Thankyou so much for welcoming us to your home. You're family is awesome! Thankyou for being you.

Oh my goodness!!! This is one of my favorite meals!!!! I could smell those onions clean here in Kansas City!! Thanks Karen :)

❤ Hi Karen, I love you and your videos. You are a great cook. I love the kind of food you make. And we love seeing your husband Mister jones

Oh my gosh! My mouth is watering! Yummy !🤤 ❤

I too love nature and all it entails, I live in City Limits, but there are 4 deer that come out at night, and I love seeing them.

Thanks for sharing. I know that meal is tasty. Cheers!!😊❤

This video was so fun to watch. Your kitchen is beautiful and that dinner is something I would make for my husband who only likes American and Mexican food. Thanks ✨️

I enjoy your videos soo much. You cook like my precious mom. Your food looks delicious. Blessings to you and yours.

I love this kind of food..comforting

First time visiting your channel. What a treat and I’ll be back to ENJOY-CE another glass if sweet tea! 🙋‍♀️❤️🙏🇺🇸

My mom taught me to always stat a dishpan of hot sudsy water when I started a meal. As I finished using something, it was tossed in the water. As time permitted, I’d reach in there, wash the utensil, dry it and put it away. When I finished cooking, my kitchen was almost clean!

Karen, I love your recipes. So simple.

and that's a beautiful window... how lucky are you!

I love to watch you cook and you and your are so cute together. I have been cooking many, many years and your cooking is reminiscent of the way I cook. I loved your cube steak, potato patties, gravy, etc. I have never put okra in with my beans, but I will, now. Thank you. 😊

Sorry girls to hear about your grandma,I pray the Lord to be with all the family. I ask the Lord to wrap his arms around you and give you peace. God bless.

Karen I just love watching you cook . It's so relaxing to me. And the meals you prepare are so delicious. I fix so many of your meals and my husband just loves them. I cannot thank you enough sweetie. I look so forward to sitting down with my glass of ice tea and enjoying your videos. Love Y'all!!!

Miss Kare, When I saw the uncut, I knew before I even started watching that, " it's gonna be good"!!

Everything looks so delicious! I sure am enjoying your videos, but I sure do get hungry watching you cook all these good meals! 🍽

Karen. You are a great teacher I love. listening to you cause you are so soft spoken Well organized

The window scene is lovely!

You are always a pleasure too watch

I absolutely love your video's. What a great cook you are. God bless....😊

Karen…you are THE BEST cook! Thanks for sharing!❤️

I like watching these videos that are uncut. Thank you dear ❤️❤️❤️

If you poke a small whole in the top of your broth container, the broth will pour out nicely.

I make a gal of tea every 2 or 3 days. I put a pinch of baking soda in it to make it stronger.

Great meal!

That looks delicious and very easy to make. I have learned to keep a paper and pen next to me, lol. Thanks for all the super ideas and recipes!

"Better Than Bullion" beef works really well with ground meat. It works better than brown gravy mix. With your beef broth it should be great. I enjoy your cooking so much because all of your recipes are quck and easy. Even easy to remember. Chicken "better than bullion" works also really well with chicken broth with chicken. A dear friend of mine made beef barley soup with Bthanb and I enjoyed it so much. You have given me great ideas for amny dishes thank you.

Look so good!

The water you cooked your potatoes in makes and awesome gravy!

Karen, I've got to make this meal soon. Thanks for your video I loved it ❤️

Dinner does look delicious, especially on a fun-filled Friday night 🎉. I also love that kitchen view of the out doors. Buttermilk in creamed 😮potatoes. Can’t wait to try it❤️HAPPY WEEKEND to you and the family!

My mother taught me to take the raw cabbage core, cut off any yellowed part on the outside, rinse, and sprinkle with salt. Tastes just like kohlrabi. Delicious! Cooks treat. ;-)

Love hamburger steaks and gravy! Pure comfort food. When I make sauerkraut I cut up and put an apple in it like my mother did. The apple melts into the sauerkraut while it cooks.

Looks so yummy I just found your channel love your style of cooking good comfort food

Thank you for cooking with us this Friday ❤❤❤❤ I love hamburger steaks with gravy and of course I love homemade mashed potatoes sooo good. Cabbage tooo. Thank you again this is my favorite channel on KZfaq 🎥🎥🎥

I wish I could reach through this screen and gobble that up! Lol! Oh my goodness, that looks delicious, but I sure wouldn’t expect anything less Karen! What a nice meal for a gloomy day. That’s a belly warmer! Thank you!!! You look nice! Blessing to you and the Famiky. ♥️🙏🕊♥️

Now that was awesome Karen, nothing like a homecooked meal nothing fancy just pure goodness

Hi. Sometimes I make creamed cabbage. Talk about yummy! Scoop on top of mashed potatoes. Drain off all water from cabbage pot then add heavy cream, salt and pepper! Amount of cream depends on how thick or thin you want the cabbage gravy. I prefer a little on the thick side. Also, I remember my mom always had sliced bread or biscuits on the dinner table. I did until my boys got out on their own.

Yum!

So delicious. It's 11pm and I'm so hungry for all of this lol

Looks like good meal

Looks delicious!

You can see and feel the love in your food ❤ yummy best way to cook

I LOVE --- LOVE -- LOVE -- YOUR COOKING VIDEOS --I MISS MY MOTHER ,, you remind me such much --- of my mother --she loved cooking for all the family ,,, WE MISS HER !

Hi Karen i love to watch you cook and listen to you you are such a nice lady and your husband too i love to listen to you .

Yum🎉 you are making me hungry

Hi Ms Karen … you are so calming to watch to cook step by step I like that I cook some but everybody can do an upgrade

Another delicious meal! Yes a silicone whisk would be wonderful. Also a silicone lid with a "floppy" middle prevents boil overs.Have heard that placing a wooden spoon across the opening also works. Haven't tried the spoon but the lid is great. 2 super cooks in one family,double good eating ! Peace,love and happiness to everyone. 🥰🐈‍⬛

Thank you for your hard work. I love cabbage anyway it can be made.

Hamburger patties in gravy is my go to if I don’t want to think about what to make . God bless .

It is so relaxing just watching you cook, so natural, and your window picture is beautiful. Great food, thank you, your friends at Red Cardinal Kitchen. Sonja and Christopher

Many thanks Karen it is real comfort food, I have been looking at some of my mother's cookbooks, I thing we use to many ingredients to day ,which is so costly.

My nana would make this but used onion soup mix in the meat mixture so the gravy was a roux then wager added to make the gravy

That is one awesome meal....I bet your house smelled soooo good when you got all that done. I bet Mr. Karen was a happy camper when he got home...lol. It's impossible to find whole buttermilk around here very often either. Thanks for making another yummy meal Karen! Love, Hugs and Blessings.

Looks delicious

I'm enjoying you fixing your supper. You cook my kind of food. Ha Ha! I really love the view over your stove area. That's just gorgeous. Stephanie shared her recipe for fried pies. I've been a lil under the weather but as soon as I can I'm going to try it. I found a can of blackberry pie filling. I appreciate your videos. ♥️

I know green onion roots if course will reroot can't see why other onion wouldn't work as well have bless evening😊🤗😘❤️you and Papa Jones

Hi Miss Karen. That's another delicious looking dinner. Good Southern food.😊

Mrs. Karen, you are indeed a wonderful Southern cook. The way you do your onions is exactly the way I do mines. You've certainly inspired me to do some hamburger steaks. They look DELICIOUS!! The entire meal looks amazing! Thanks for sharing your wonderful recipes! ☺️💗

Just found you. We will be watching regularly

Hi Karen, your dinner looks like it's going to be So Good. We love cabbage. I like to fry it in butter with some chopped onion, or I make scalloped, aka cabbage casserole. The other day I saw where they're making cabbage steaks, thick sliced cabbage, and frying it or cooking it on the grill, which I want to try. I've made the cauliflower steaks, but haven't tried the cabbage ones. It's on my to try list!

Great video my friend!! ❤️😘

No worries, good cooking can sometimes get noisy. I've never even tried the gravy mix product, extra bouillon, and balsamic in gravy. I will have to give them a whirl. I may find out my gravy has been a real Caspar Milquetoast version all these years. 😲😄

No need to apologize for the scratch and that's how good homemade gravy made

Karen, I think you’re so great. I enjoy every video.

Just finished watching! Everything looks like it was going to be delicious!! Now I’m craving hamburger steak and gravy with mashed potatoes. That cabbage looked delicious too. I’ve never cooked cabbage that way, but it looks delicious, with butter like that 😋😋😋🥰

I have only just come across your channel. Karen there is nothing worse than a video that takes you through such a delicious looking meal and then not seeing the plated results!

My hobby is cooking and baking. I love corn dogs. I just watched your video on those I’ll try those. But I didn’t see your recipe for the batter. Usually cooks put the recipe in the description box. I need the recipe but I can make my own cornbread batter too. I happen to love Jiffy but it’s kind of sweet for corn dogs. I put my green onions in small bit of water after I use the greens I can grow my own chives, I think I’ll add some of my home canned mushrooms in my hamb gravy.

I just sub to your channel and the food looks delicious, I love everything and onions 🧅 I can never get enough of….🦋🦋🦋

I always press my tea! Don't waste any flavor!

Looks so delicious I never made hamburger steaks looks delicious I had cabbage and mashed potatoes tonight with boneless pork steaks but gonna try the hamburger steaks next time thanks for sharing

Well hello Karen, it's Friday night and your dinner is looking very good I most say! You and Paul have a great weekend,stay warm and injoy your weekend god bless you both my dear friends !!❤️🙏😇😋😂 Bye Bye , Norlinda.kcmo !!

Your meal looked sooo good! My mom used to make a cabbage one pot meal, where she boiled it with smoked neck, cabbage ( of course !) and potatoes. Soo good! I do it over here, but they don’t sell smoked neck, so I substitute it with a smoked ham steak. Like yourself, I don’t use breadcrumbs in my hamburgers or hamburger steaks. Btw, I made your sandwiches, breaded mozzarella sticks and the caramel pecan pie for dessert for Super Bowl night! Sooo good! Thank you for all your delicious recipes!

Just started watching your channel. I think it was Falon on Moss Family that mentioned your channel. You are such a sweet person and you cook like we do. I find whole buttermilk at Kroger if you have one near you. Thanks so much!

Karen everything look so good I remember mom would do the same thing with cube steak and used kitchen Bouquet for her gravy and have mashed potatoes and a veg . And had either brown and sever rolls or Rhodes yeast rolls .Them where the days .I'll have to try your gravy mix .Love your pans you cooked your potatoes and cabbage in reminds me of pans 30 years ago .❤️

Miss Karen, we had plans to go to dinner with friends and after watching this video, I called them and said, change of plans, dinner now at my house, serving hamburger steaks and mashed potatoes 😋 it's gonna be good 👍

I have silicone whisks . Works nice

I saw ur tea video.

It is cloudy and cold in southwest Ohio.

Hey Ms Karen Never made mashed potatoes with buttermilk but are sure to try it. My mom always put a big glob of Mayo in hers and of course I do the same. We here in NC are having trouble finding whole buttermilk also. Wish I was there to eat with you. Thank you

I was wondering if you were to saute the cabbage instead of boiling it it would be quicker and not so watery. I am sure both methods will produce good flavor. 😀

You should make a video on how you take care of your cast iron skillet. I have one and I'm sure how to take care of it so I don't really use it.

We love fried cabbage too, Karen. Have you ever tried putting a little bacon grease in you cabbage? So good!!
