    I just want to say how much I appreciate you embracing and wanting to return to simpler roots. Social media has a funny way of showing us the gloss and shine of everything and we forget the grounded reality. Sloppy Joes and tater tots are an awesome dinner and I grew up eating that fairly regularly! Thanks for being real, Kristin. It's nice to see there are influencers out there who aren't hiding behind the soft focus and fake sheen because, you're right, we all are just people trying to make it through and raise our families. I really appreciate that. ❤️

      If I would serve this food to my family we would all be overweight - I always have to change ingredients to make it edible for us. There is nothing wrong to watch your weight.

But you don´t have to combine high fat and high calorie food all the time. You can serve pasta with some steamed veggie and salmon/chicken WITHOUT tons of gravy or sauce. Or make a healthy veggie-based sauce. You don´t have to cover everything all the time with cheese

    I started watching you because you're so relatable. I don't tend to watch "Pinterest worthy" cooking channels because that is not always reality. I like when you show your family eating at Wendy's on a night you didn't cook because then I think 'you know, I haven't had Wendy's in a while" and that in itself is a dinner idea. I don't have children and I like to cook but a lot of times I just don't feel like it or I just want to cook something simple (which turns out to be the most delicious meals). So I said all that to say this, please keep showing your "simple" meals because they are helping someone! Thanks for sharing! 😁

I definitely get in ruts for what sounds good and won't take hours to make. I see your video and think "yummo... I haven't made sloppy joes in ages!!!"
    Little giggle to share: my husband walked into the room where I was watching this video... he could hear the TV but not see it. He recognized your voice. 😊 we love it when you say you put "oil in your skillet" (in your cute accent)

    Kristin we all understand real! Last night real was Mom has a migraine, work was stressful, I’m not feeling well and I’m tired so y’all are getting pizza. And I ordered pizza because that’s all I had the energy for. In the end all that matters is your kids are fed, they’re happy, they’re healthy and loved. It was the best parenting advice my granny gave me. She always told me so the house might be a little chaotic, there might be dirty dishes in the sink but the time you have with your kids when they are little is priceless, cherish every moment and who cares if you don’t cook a gourmet meal. The thing about is your kids are loved and they see it because you take the time to show them, they’re fed, they’re clothed, they have a roof over their heads, shoes on their little feet and they are healthy and strong. That’s all that matters. I have to remind myself of this advice sometimes when I get down on myself for not being Martha Stewart every day. You got this girl!

That's how I grew up eating, we ate balanced with a little bit of everything. we were healthy and I saw nothing wrong with it until society and social media came into play.

In the morning add them to a slow cooker with the liquid and cook on low until tender. Remove from the liquid, add bbq sauce and pop under the grill/in the oven until as caramelized as you like

    I love when you show the great meals your dad cooks for yall. What a blessing! Has he ever been in your videos? Would enjoy seeing y’all cook together or even a video dedicated to his best recipes💚 and I love how you are always keeping it real with what you cook…there is nothing wrong with a frozen meal here and there…it’s better than being hungry! (Personally I love a good frozen pizza -it’s a weekly thing at my house lol!) Edited: I always cook my country style ribs in a casserole dish covered with foil--low and slow. Maybe cooking them on a sheet pan is drying them out -too much heat circulating around them…if that makes sense.

    Hi! My sister taught me to make boneless ribs in the crockpot! Just cover the ribs in bbq sauce and a little water and cook on low. They come out perfect every time.

    I do boneless pork ribs in the crockpot to allow them to cook low and slow all day--just seasoning them with salt and pepper. Then I take the ribs out, put them on a rack over a baking sheet, put the BBQ sauce on like you have it in your video, and pop it under the broiler for just a few minutes. They get nice and sticky while still being tender. Hope that helps!

    We use the instant pot for ribs! I used to use the crock pot but now only use the instant pot! Generally we use boneless beef ribs but I am sure that pork ribs would work well too. The rub is 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1 teaspoon onion powder, garlic powder, salt, pepper, chili powder (and you can add cayenne pepper if you like it more spicy). Then I coat them lightly in bbq sauce and put them in the instant pot with beef broth instead of water. Cook on manual for 45 minutes. They come out fall apart tender every time.

    You’re doing a great job and very real! Even homemade dough is not in my cookbook so kudos for that but it comes down to convenience, affordability, time and most importantly (preference) what you know everyone will eat! Fed is best!

    I love your videos, whether you are making a homemade recipe, or sloppy joes and tater tots! Gives me ideas on what to have for dinner! Some of those simple dinners (like sloppy joes) come in handy when I'm having brain freeze on dinner dishes! Merry Christmas to you and yours!

    You are such a delight! I’ve had so much fun getting to know you and your fam. It feels so neighborly.
    Your dad’s chicken and noodles looks just like my mom’s. She poached a whole chicken to make it. We put it on mashed potato’s. So so good.
    Merry Christmas 😁

    I make my ribs in the crockpot with pineapple juice. After cooking low for 6 hours or so I put them on a pan and coat in sweet baby rays bbq sauce and caramelize in the oven for a few minutes. So yummy!

    I love your channel you are my absolute fav! You always just get to cooking ur not always talking about everything else besides I mean don’t get me wrong every time u do u love it but sometimes u know we’re trying to follow a recipe and we have to skip into we’re it shows the cooking part which is why I love u so much! U do talk about life and the fam but show the food process and when u do u barley do it! You are a mom a wife and doing this takes time and u make it known u don’t ever come as off a perfect actor type of thing if that makes sense lol love ur videos so much!!! Everything about them !!! Even my kids watch ur videos with me I’m so happy I get to pass these recipes down to them than they see ur kids and get happy like see if they can u can! So ty so much for taking the time to do these ! ❤️❤️🙌
