As a Black person living in Wi, I have several Hmong friends, everything they are showing I can attest to. I tried cow heart, squid balls, raw beef in my Pho which I like. I've even tried pig brain, that wasn't my forte lol but I like seeing how the Asian community works together and get alot of their food naturally. There's a good size Hmong population in Minnesota. That pepper sauce is great, when they make me a pan of egg rolls, I eat them with that pepper sauce😍🔥. It's fantastic.
I worked in a Vietnamese kitchen for years and the raw beef Pho is really legit, I think the family I worked for had some Hmong roots along the way because some things I'm seeing in their culture in these videos is similar. But I love Pho, we were only closed one day a week and that was either a cleaning day for the restaurant but in Winter it was Pho prep day, cooking the bones and soaking the bean sprouts, Thai basil trimming, trimming the beef, and getting everything ready to be made for service on Monday. It was all done very much with love, time, trad. ingredients
Sonny, you do realize that you've manage to connect Hmong people from all around the world. Something that has always been desired but has never been done entirely and as entertaining. You're teaching and preserving our culture all while being funny as hell. Shout outs to you and your team. Yall are awesome! Someone invite Sonny for some Hmong Sausage 👀
"you always win when you're humble" i love the mindset of these people and how they care so much to preserve their tradition. thank you Sonny for shedding light on this little community!
Thank you for being so respectful, Sonny. This was an amazing episode, a masterpiece. No rush, no flashy fancy eating, just humble storytelling. This could be one of the Top-3 episodes of BEFRS ever.
Wisconsin is such an underrated state, so full of culture and beauty. I grew up in Appleton, WI around many Hmong communities. The Hmong people truly are amongst the most humble and kind.
@@mnc0088 bro as someone from Wisconsin that can’t be farther from the truth. As someone from the la cross area and being around Hmong in my community we are extremely friendly and I’ve only heard good experiences from both sides
True. I have never heard of the Hmong people. I had no idea that they don't have a country any more. Despite this, they still maintain their heritage and spirit! Amazing!
I screwed up at 19 and ended up in jail, and at one point my bunkmate was a 16 year old kid who i thought was chinese. After a couple of days he opened up and told me he was Hmong. I wasn't an idiot in school, i paid attention and was in the upper 10th percentile in my class but had never ever been told or taught about the Hmong people. He told me all about their plight and how they had no official land to call their home. Learned a lot from that kid, and he ended up getting sentenced to 20 years in prison at 16 for being an accessory to murder. I sometimes wonder if he's been released or if he ended up stuck in the system.
@oh hi depends on where you're at. in Fresno, CA, it can lasts like two to three weeks sometimes and becomes more of a economical event rather than cultural event.
My family is Vietnamese and we had an identical experience having to flee Vietnam and immigrate here to the US. Watching their Diane’s family succeeding as ours is so great to see. I wish their family continued success. Great video Sonny showing us other success stories.
What an amazing humble family after all that they have gone through, Sonny please keep trying to meet diverse families from different cultures and share their food and life experiences with us🙏🏾
That was a wonderful presentation Sonny, thank you. And it was great to see this family liberated from their country and relocated in the US. Now they are living traditionally and free. Cheers.
Wisconsin is one of my favorite states..It was great to see these hmong people living much like how i grew up..America really is a land of opportunity..
I’m Thai with Lao cousins, this video made me really proud. Seeing a family so familiar to mine on a platform like this portraying things the right way.
I really loved this episode. I learned so much watching your previous videos about the Hmong people. With this video I learned what a great help they were in the war and how they were punished for it once we left the country. That sucked! I'm so happy this family has survived and flourished here in America. What a precious family. Great job Sonny! 🙏♥️💯
White guy here (meeka), married to a Wisconsin Hmong girl. They are an awesome people. I am constantly learning more about their culture all the time. My mother in law's chicken larb is one of my favorite foods in the world. I'm pretty sure I like more Hmong food than my wife. But she can eat egg rolls all the time. I get sick of those after awhile. Their hot pepper condiment with dried hot chilies, green onion, cilantro, and fish sauce is awesome!
This is the best way to do it! I have my potbelly pigs, guineas, chicken, turkey, and quail. Growing them all and harvesting them is the best gift. You know where it comes from and what they’ve eaten. So fresh
I think this is one of the best videos you guys have ever made. I know little about the Hmong people. Learning about their way of life and their journey is awesome. It's great to learn about other cultures right here in our own backyard. I think you guys should make more videos like these, show the rest of the world just how vastly diverse we all are and enjoy the food at the same time. Good job
thank you for giving my people a chance and a chance at our food and culture. We have deep history and have come a long way as a clan. thank you for showing many around the world my people!
I knew several Hmong refugees who settled in Nashville, Tn. and brought their wonderful food culture with them. We owe our greatness to our acceptance, not our exclusion. ❤
I only had ever heard of the Hmong people when watching Clint Eastwood's movie Gran Torino. I was so happy to see and watch this video and get a much better perspective of these incredibly hard working and traditional people!❤
Your show is not all about food ..it is about culture, traditions, people and their history.... full of life show...and as the girl said humbleness wins... Very deep philosophy of life practised by Hmong communities 👏👏 salute from India
as a Hmong American living in Wisconsin....thanks for this episode...love your videos watch it all the time...you are the kind of white friends I had growing up knowing that Hmongs are different but enjoying them as a human being who are obviously different then you...enuff said about that subject..lol
Amazing, this episode is exactly why i love your channel. You're able find people's story, culture and cuisine, and feature it in such a deep, personal and interesting way.
From where Hmong people started and where we are now, I love to see this.❤️ All these dishes I loved as a kid and even as a kid. The first dish was very basic with just boiled chicken, vegetables, and eaten with Thai peppers and salt. Very basic but the most comfortable and wholesome dish I loved as a kid.❤️❤️❤️
This is the definition of the American Dream. Fleeing your country because of war or religious persecution. Hard work, humble family and the love of each other is amazing. This is such a beautiful family and wonderful cuisine. Their kindness and generosity is absolutely beautiful.
That was awesome 👌 Here we have these saviors of American soldiers in Vietnam. Welcome to the US and thank you for helping the American soldiers 🙏. Your family will always be respected and loved by me! ❤
Sonny, thanks for showing how special the Hmongs are, our culture, and history. This video was was very relatable to me as I am Hmong. I’m glad you were able to enjoy your time with our Hmong Folks.
Always watched Mark Weins both he and his Buddy Joel Bruner travelling amongst the Hmong people and Supporting their unique foods in their country Just totally loving all they cooked flavoursome foods and how humbling they were. .
🇺🇸🇺🇸ll'd fry up that skin for those people and make chicharrones for them. The Hmong people are underrated in America. They stuck their neck out for American troops. And were persecuted for it and The Americans really pretty much didn't help as much as they should have. So my dad told me. He fought with and trained Hmong villages
Thank your father on behalf our Hmong people for his help in understanding our Hmong people. I hope he is doing well and be blessed for being the great person that he is. Much love and hope all is well with your father and your family. Take care.

Sonny...mad props and respect to u and ur crew. Without a doubt u r one of the most important human beings on the planet. Cultures across the globe have been touched by your compassion to be a part of something greater than ourselves.
This was amazing and thank you for respecting these wonderful and humble folks. This is how family should be. We could learn so much from them. Blessings 💖
i'm from indiana. 77 . we have had geinne fowl all my life. ours run loose, they make great burgler alarms. we eat all the organs meats. i think alot of the reason that the diet is so alike that we were poor. we ate everything but no bile soup. sorry about sp. love peace. raz
This is so immensely interesting, I love meeting and learning of new cultures. I saw your previous capsule episodes of the Hmong people their culture and food and immensely admire them for striving to be true to themselves by maintaining it. They are a beautiful people have an integrity unmatched here in America. Americans maintain your freedoms and acceptability of other cultures, that is the best of what we represent and what makes America great! Defend it with your integrity before we lose it! 🇺🇸🙏🏽♥️✨
Beautiful episode. Husband is Laotian Hmong born in a Thailand refugee camp. He literally had no country (the exact words of USCIS). Spreading the awareness, flavors, and culture is the best we can do.
we use to grow them in Romania, because old ppl use to belive that this birds are haveing special sences to prevent bad weter, and danger...they start to screem if something unknown come to close to the home.... i love them...they are smart
Being from Fresno it is really nice seeing Hmong in other parts of the country. There is a book that explains the Hmong assistance in Laos. But, my best picture is of General Vang Pao dedicating the Hmong Vietnam memorial in Fresno. Many military leaders have had traditional funerals in Fresno, I'm just sad that many weren't honored as well during this recent time. We are losing them fast, time to renew the tradition.
You've done a lot of shows that I love, but for some reason this is the first one that I've watched twice back to back! I loved it that much... just can't quite put my finger on why!!
These guys seem like some of the most genuine people who had nothing but love for their roots and seemed to treat you as not just a guest but a extra family member it was nice to see
you actually made this episode amazing. ppl don’t realize how much hmong ppl have helped us in vietnam. i know another family in wisconsin that are hmong
Loving your Midwest content! I'm from Wisconsin so I've grown up with many Hmong co-workers and classmates. However, I've always wanted to know more about their food traditions etc. beyond what I see from the outside. Thank you for that opportunity. I realize you're trying to be on your best behavior here...I'm loving it! Even the hair reveal :) Thank you to the host family for welcoming Sonny into their home - it was an awesome experience. My uncle raises guinna hens - noisy guys but oh do they love ticks.
Love the Hmong videos! All Hmong families differ in cuisine and taste preferences. Some are rustic, some are bland and some are packed with just the right flavors and textures. Thank you for sharing another Hmong videos with us!
definitely one of my favorite episodes y'all. The homespun, domestic american farmscape, coupled with delicious, exotic, imported Hmoung/Hmuong (yikes, i've already accidentally forgotten how to spell, i am so so sorry guys) recipes is just such a combo as i have never seen or even imagined! Just one MORE reason to luv a dove and dove tha BEFRS squad and mission...Keep up zee good werk my friends..keeping obscure, beautiful, critically endangered and fantastic ethnically diverse cultures alive is arguably one of the most important responsibilities we shoulder (or should- a-hem) as a civilization. Paleontology shouldn't have to be relegated to old, dry bones and shards of pottery and beads-when living, breathing artifacts and traditions exist riite-cheer in middle america. So, once again, good lookin out Sonny. Thanks for taking us with you on all these amazing adventures. Most simply put, there's just no one else, in the genre, doin it how y'all do. I adore the enthusiasm, the genuine authenticity, completely void of gimicks on every level and the individuality that only the real deal can deliver....and i kno ive said it a thousand times, but y'all really do rock....now...carry on

I realize you're trying to be on your best behavior here...I'm loving it! Even the hair reveal :) Thank you to the host family for welcoming Sonny into their home - it was an awesome experience. My uncle raises guinna hens - noisy guys but oh do they love ticks.
Thanks!
Thanks. Love to see these cultures and food. We have a moderate Vietnamese population here in south Louisiana. Love the food and culture.
Love the Hmong videos! All Hmong families differ in cuisine and taste preferences. Some are rustic, some are bland and some are packed with just the right flavors and textures. Thank you for sharing another Hmong videos with us!
This family is awesome! Another great episode Sonny ❤️
Diane, I love seeing your family farm! This is awesome!
Wow, a lovely happy extended family. ❤️
At the farmers market in WI. THE HMONG ARE THE ONLY VENDORS i BUY FROM wonderful people
definitely one of my favorite episodes y'all. The homespun, domestic american farmscape, coupled with delicious, exotic, imported Hmoung/Hmuong (yikes, i've already accidentally forgotten how to spell, i am so so sorry guys) recipes is just such a combo as i have never seen or even imagined! Just one MORE reason to luv a dove and dove tha BEFRS squad and mission...Keep up zee good werk my friends..keeping obscure, beautiful, critically endangered and fantastic ethnically diverse cultures alive is arguably one of the most important responsibilities we shoulder (or should- a-hem) as a civilization. Paleontology shouldn't have to be relegated to old, dry bones and shards of pottery and beads-when living, breathing artifacts and traditions exist riite-cheer in middle america. So, once again, good lookin out Sonny. Thanks for taking us with you on all these amazing adventures. Most simply put, there's just no one else, in the genre, doin it how y'all do. I adore the enthusiasm, the genuine authenticity, completely void of gimicks on every level and the individuality that only the real deal can deliver....and i kno ive said it a thousand times, but y'all really do rock....now...carry on
