      Hi Susie! Agreed. I love cookin with bacon grease any opportunity I can get! I know it’s not healthy but I come from a country family and if your gonna cook great tastin food you gotta do it right. If cholesterol kills me I figure, oh well, at least I I go happy with mom and grammy’s food I learned to cook since I was 8 or 10 at their side. Lol 😋

    My grandmama used to make these, usually for breakfast if i recall correctly, exactly the way you make them, sometimes she would put a little bit of sage in hers too. These are so good! She also did this with leftover pinto beans, she would do a rough mash on them, and then add the rest of her ingredients. Thank you for sharing this with us.

  • @pegsmith1110
    @pegsmith1110 Год назад

    Mom made potato cakes. She used the same recipe you do. With 10 of us kids potato cakes were an affordable thing to make. She purposely made extra potatoes so she could make these. They are so good when they're real crispy. I ate them with ketchup! I love your cooking show!!!

    @dianeleone1634 Год назад

    My mom took the leftover mashed potatoes, one bowl of a beaten egg, one bowl of bread crumbs. She would shape the potatoes like a football . Sometimes she would add some shredded mozzarella. Roll the little football in the egg mixture, then coat it in the bread crumbs & the rest exactly like you .Same iron skillet. Yum. Yours look yummy💙 Thanks for sharing💕

    Good morning. My grandma made these.. and can go with a good Ole country meal. The weather Friday was great here in my home town. But today rainy but suppose to clear off later in afternoon. Temp is 50.. our town usually has Ole time apple festival from Thursday - Saturday night. But due to the pandemic most of the activities are canceled except the powder puff demo tonight. Thank you for any other great recipe TAMMY. YOU AND CHRIS HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY. BRENDA. I'm on my grandson Noah's account.

    I tried it with leftover sweet potatoes after Thanksgiving, my kids loved them and they normally wont eat sweet potatoes. We put sour cream and cheese in them. I use a combo of butter and bacon grease. We dip them in a bit of homemade applesauce YUM.

She called them "little cigars" and of course all the grandchildren loved the little potato "cigars"...there were never any leftovers! Thanks for another video, y'all! ☺
