>> HELLO AND BELL COMTO TIM FARMER'S COUNTRY KITCHEN HELLO Mrs. FARMER.

>> HELLO.

>> Tim: YOUR EARRINGS MATCH YOUR SHIRT.

>> Nicki: I GOT THEM IN FLORIDA.

REMEMBER.

>> Tim: THEY'RE PRETTY.

TODAY WE ARE GOING TO HAVE A LOT OF FUN.

WE WANTED TO BE OUTSIDE.

I WAS GETTING READY TO BUILD A FIRE.

LOOKED AT THE WEATHER.

THE WEATHER SAID AT 7:00, NO, NO, NO.

9:00, THERE WAS LIKE A 30% CHANCE.

AT 4:00 WE HAD A 1,000% CHANCE.

WINDS CAME IN.

>> Nicki: IT WAS A BAD STORM.

>> Tim: WE WERE AT KENTUCKY LAKE.

THERE WILL BE SOME FISH RECIPES SHORTLY BECAUSE WE WENT FISHING WITH JIM.

THE NIGHT WE GOT DOWN THERE IN THOSE... >> Nicki: BEAUTIFUL CABBAGE CABINS.

WE HAD TEA, JUST CATCHING UP.

WE WERE CHATTING.

>> Tim: THEY WERE TALKING SO LOUD.

>> Tim: HAVING CONVERSATION.

>> Tim: DID ANYBODY NOTICE HOW DARK IT WAS.

IT WAS PEA GREEN AND ALL OF A SUDDEN, BOOM, TREES WERE DOWN, HUGE, WE SAW SWIRLING IN THE TREES, AND THE TREES WERE GOING DOWN.

WELL, RIGHT DOWN FROM US JUST RIGHT, RIGHT DOWN THE ROAD, THEY HAD A TORNADO AND THAT'S WHAT GOT US.

>> Nicki: THE MARINA WAS DESTROYED.

WE WENT TO WAL-MART AND YOU GUYS SAID YOU WANTED TO DO THE SHOPPING.

WE LET YOU GO IN THE STORE.

I SAID TO LISA I THOUGHT YOU WOULD COME OUT WITH FISHING STUFF BUT YOU GOT LANTERNS, BATTERY OPERATED FLASHLIGHTS.

CANDLES.

>> Tim: WE ARE MILITARY.

>> Nicki: WE HAD A LITTLE LIGHT FOR A WHILE.

>> Tim: WE GOT CANDLES, LANT EARNS AND THE OLD OIL LAMPS.

ELECTRICITY WAS OUT FOR DAYS.

WE HAVE FISH RECIPES COMING.

LET'S GET TO WHAT IS GOING ON.

NATURE SURROUNDS US.

WE WERE WALKING AROUND THE YARD AND YOU KNOW WHAT, WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU ARE OUT IN THE YARD AND YOU HEAR A BIRD SOUND?

WELL, IT'S A BIRD SOUND.

WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU HEAR A BIRD SOUND AND YOU KNOW WHAT KIND OF BIRD THAT IS?

YOU ARE MORE CLUED INTO YOUR ENVIRONMENT.

YOU FEEL LIKE YOU KNOW THAT PARTICULAR SPECIES.

YOU HEAR A ROB IRN CALLING.

>> Nicki: YOU ARE GOOD ABOUT THE THAT.

>> Tim: MY GRANDFATHER TAUGHT ME.

WHEN WE WERE LOOKING AROUND A COUPLE WEEKS AGO.

I THOUGHT YOU KNOW WHAT?

I'M GOING TO SHARE SOME INFORMATION WITH FOLKS.

WE TALKED ABOUT SNAKES ON FACEBOOK PAGE BECAUSE FOLKS WERE ASKING.

>> Nicki: I DON'T LIKE SNAKES.

>> Tim: A HUGE RESPONSE.

I'M GOING TO SHOW YOU SOMETHING HERE.

THE OTHER DAY, I NOTICED A BROWN THRASHER, BEAUTIFUL BIRD.

THE ONLY THING YOU CAN MISTAKE THIS FOR, A LOT OF PEOPLE MIGHT MISTAKE IT FOR A THRUSH.

THRUSHES ARE SMALLER.

THEY HAVE A BEAUTIFUL CALL.

BEAUTIFUL BIRD.

THEY STAY ON THE GROUND.

WELL I NOTICED ONE HOPPING AROUND HERE.

WHEN I I WOULD GO OUT TO THE YARD, IT WOULD STAY JUST AHEAD OF ME.

I THOUGHT WE HAVE A NEST.

>> Nicki: WE WEREN'T SURE WHERE IT WAS.

>> Tim: THEY BECAME COMFORTABLE AROUND US.

THAT'S THEIR NATURE.

TYPICALLY AROUND FARMERS AND SO FORTH, THEY DON'T SHOW MUCH SHYNESS.

NEXT THING WE KNOW, WE LOOK OUT RIGHT NEXT TO THE HOUSE AND I SEE HER FLY INTO THE NEST.

SAW FOUR LITTLE BABIES.

AND I BEGAN TO WATCH THEM.

SO WHAT WE FOUND OUT IS THAT BOTH PARENTS, AND I KNEW THIS.

BUT BOTH PARENTS TAKE CARE OF THESE.

>> Nicki: I DIDN'T KNOW THAT.

THEY BOTH TAKE CARE OF THEM.

>> Tim: MALE AND FEMALE.

THEY GO OUT AND STAY RIGHT AROUND THE AREA, PICKING UP WORMS AND BUGS.

THEY COME RIGHT IN, THEY FEED THE BABIES.

I SAW HER AND THIS MIGHT SOUND GROSS, SHE REACHED IN, GOT SOMETHING WHITE FROM THE LATTER END OF THE BABY AND DROP IT DOWN IN THE CEDAR TREES.

BASICALLY WHEN THAT BABY TAKES A LITTLE DOODIE, SHE TAKES IT OUT OF THE NEST TO KEEP IT CLEAN.

>> Nicki: GOOD MAMA.

>> Tim: OR HE.

AND THEY CONSTANTLY FEED THE BABIES.

NATURAL HISTORY OF AMERICAN BIRDS IS THE BOOK I HAVE AND LOVE AN OLD BOOK.

THE FIRST PRINTING IS 1925.

IT SHOWS YOU WHAT THAT BIRD LOOKS LIKE.

AND I'VE HAVE THIS BOOK FOR YEARS AND I LOVE IT.

BUT WHEN YOU READ THESE THINGS THAT THE BIOLOGISTS NUT THERE ABOUT THE BIRDS, IT'S POETIC.

THE SOPPING OF THE MALE IS DELIVERED FROM AN ELEVATED POSITION TO ATTRACT THE FEMALE.

COURTSHIP PROCEEDS MOSTLY OR NEAR THE GROUND.

SO ON AND SO FORDS.

TALKS ABOUT THE FACT THAT THEY BUILD A FAIRLY BULKY NEST.

TWO TO FIVE FEET FROM THE GROUND.

FOUR, FIVE, SIX EGGS.

MOTHER AND FATHER TAKE CARE OF THEM.

SO COOL.

SOME OF THE SHOTS WE GOT OF THE BIRD FLYING OUT OF THE NEST, STANDING THERE LOOKING RIGHT AT US.

BEAUTIFUL, BEAUTIFUL ANIMAL.

SO, ONE THING DIFFICULT SEE DOWN THE HILL THE OTHER DAY, I SAW OUR GUY.

NOW USUALLY THEY'RE VERY SHY ABOUT THEIR COURTSHIP.

THEY'RE DOING THIS DANCE.

SOME OF THE SOUTH AMERICAN BIRDS, I SAW HIM HOLDING HIS WINGS UP AND HIS TAIL WAS UP.

I HAVE A FEELING THOSE BABIES GOT TAKEN BY THE CROWS.

USUALLY THEY'LL LAY ON THE BATCH OF EGGS.

I DON'T THINK IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN OUT HERE BECAUSE ONCE IT'S RAIDED, THEY KNOW IT'S NOT SAFE.

THAT'S OUR TAKE ON THE BROWN THRASHER.

IS THAT NOT INTERESTING.

>> Nicki: I LEARNED A LOT.

>> Tim: WE SAW SOME TOADS.

WE HAVE THREE SPECIES.

THE ONES WE SAW, THE BABIES, DOWN IN THE PUDDLE, AND THEY HAD JUST KIND OF POPPED OUT OF THE WATER.

AND THEY WERE TAKING THEIR TRIP.

I WAS MOWING AND I SAW THEM JUMP ACROSS THE YARD.

THOSE ARE AMERICAN OR FOULER TOADS.

PROBABLY FOWLER TOADS.

AND JUST STOP AND TAKE A LOOK.

CACTUS.

WE HAVE IN FRONT OF OUR HOUSE.

HUGE CACTUS.

PEOPLE SAY WHERE DID YOU GET THAT.

THAT SHOULD BE OUT WEST?

THESE ARE EASTERN PRICKLY PEAR.

BEAUTIFUL BLOOMS.

YOU CAN EAT THE FRUIT.

YOU CAN EAT THE PADS IF YOU STRIP THEM OFF.

LOOK AROUND.

AS YOU ARE OUT AND ABOUT.

WE ARE GOING TO DROP ONE AND IF YOU ENJOY THIS, WE'LL DO THE OCCASIONAL NET WITH BOOK TYPE THING AND WHEN WE ARE ON THE FARM, WE SEE THESE THINGS.

SO ANYHOW, SPEAKING OF NATURAL THINGS, WE GOT A BAG.

>> Nicki: THAT'S RIGHT.

>> Tim: FROM M MACK.

WHAT HAVE WE GOT HERE YOU SEE THIS, WE'VE SEEN THESE IN THE STORES.

VERY GOOD FOR YOU.

SAME FAMILY AS CABBAGE, BROCCOLI, CAULIFLOWER, CALE.

GUESS WHAT ALL KINDS OF MINERALS AND VITAMINS.

REALLY GOOD FOR YOU.

WE ARE GOING TO MAKE SOMETHING OUT OF THAT TONIGHT WE ARE GOING TO USE BEETS.

CARROTS, MAYBE A LITTLE SLAW.

WE ARE JUST MAKING DINNER FOR TWO TONIGHT WE'LL MAKE A LITTLE BATCH OF THAT.

SIMPLE RECIPE BUT IF YOU GET ACHANCE TO GET SOME OF THESE.

GRAB THEM.

VERY GOOD FOR YOU.

SOMETIMES YOU GO TO THE STORE AND YOU SEE THE PORK LOIN CENTER CUT ON SALE.

IF YOU SEE THAT, GET IT.

WE HAVE BEEN WORKING ON THE PERFECT STEAK FOR YEARS AND OCCASIONALLY WE'LL FIND SOMETHING THAT MAKES IT A BETTER PERFECT STEAK.

NOTHING IS THE SAME.

CHANGE IT UP NOW AND THEN.

SO I STARTED THINKING, OKAY, WE DO OUR STEAK NOW, WE GET IT UP TO 90° IN THE OVEN AND WE LIKE IT RARE.

SO THEN WE PUT IT ON THE GRILL AND BRING IT UP THE REST OF THE WAY AND LET IT SIT AND YOU GOT SOMETHING GOOD.

>> Nicki: IT'S GOOD.

>> Tim: I HAVE PREHEATED THE OVEN TO 250°.

NOW AT 250°, WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN?

WE HAVE A BIG THICK PIECE OF PORK LOIN.

WE ARE GOING TO COOK IT LIKE THE STEAK BUT REMEMBER TECHNICALLY TODAY THEY'VE RAISED THE TEMPERATURE.

YOU NEED TO GET TO AT LEAST 150° ON YOUR PORK.

YOU NEED TO INVEST IN, IF YOU ARE A CARNIVORE LIKE WE ARE, YOU NEED TO INVEST IN A GOOD MEAT THERMOMETER WHAT WE DO IS TRY TO GET THIS UP TO 120, GOT IT ON 250°.

LEAVE IT IN THERE FOR 40 MINUTES.

CUT IT THICK.

I LIKE BONE IN, TOO.

WE COULDN'T GET THAT BECAUSE WE WERE AT A DEAD RUN BUT WE ARE GOING TO CUT THIS THICK.

SHOW ME HOW THICK YOU WOULD LIKE YOUR PORK CHOP.

>> Nicki: AT LEAST THAT.

THICKER?

LIKE THAT.

NICE AND THICK.

THICK IS GOOD.

THAT LOOKS GOOD.

>> Tim: ALL RIGHT.

LET'S DO ANOTHER ONE JUST LIKE IT.

BECAUSE ONE IS NOT ENOUGH.

>> Nicki: WE EACH NEED OUR OWN.

>> Tim: NOW LOOK AT THAT.

>> Nicki: THAT'S GOOD LOOKING.

THAT IS BEAUTIFUL.

>> Tim: WHILE WE ARE DOING THIS, LET'S READ A PIECE OF MAIL WE GOT FROM OUR COUNTRY KITCHEN FACEBOOK PAGE.

SOMEONE SAID HOW DO YOU GUYS STAY SO SLIM?

>> Nicki: THEY DID?

[LAUGHTER] >> Tim: THEY DID.

THEY OBVIOUSLY DON'T KNOW... >> Nicki: BECAUSE WE HIDE BEHIND THE COUNTER.

>> Tim: WE TRAVEL A LOT AND WHENEVER WE TRAVEL, SUDDENLY WE ARE ON VACATION.

>> Nicki: WE EAT WHAT WE WANT.

>> Tim: SHE SAYS TO ME, WE ARE ON VACATION, WE CAN DO WHATEVER WE WANT AND THEN WE START EATING ICE CREAM AND HAMBURGERS AND FRENCH FRIES.

>> Nicki: AND YOU ARE SO HAPPY WHEN YOU DO THAT.

THAT'S RIGHT.

>> Tim: SO ANY TIME THAT TO THAT WE TRAVEL AND WE LIKE TO TRAVEL, WE ARE ON VACATION, THAT MEANS WE CAN EAT WHATEVER WE WANT WHENEVER WE WANT.

>> Nicki: AND WE ARE HEAT-- WE ARE EATING VERY HEALTHY RIGHT NOWMENT.

>> Tim: WE ARE TRYING TO STAY FIT.

A LOT OF EXERCISE.

WHAT DO YOU SMELL?

THE FIRST THING YOU SMELL THERE?

>> Nicki: THYME.

>> Tim: YES!

>> Nicki: IT SMELLS GOOD.

>> Tim: THE THYME IS THE OVER THE TOP THING.

NOW I'M STARTING TO MIX UP MY OWN STUFF.

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BUY STORE BOUGHT STUFF.

I'M DOING THIS BECAUSE I WANT YOU FOLKS TO BE ABLE TO SAY HERE IS THE EXPERIENCE I WANT.

I WANT TO MATCH WHAT HE IS DOING.

WE GO TO A RESTAURANT AND FIND SOMETHING WE REALLY LIKE, WE WANT TO COME HOME AND MATCH THAT SO I'M DOING THIS SO YOU CAN MATCH THE FLAVOR THAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR.

IT SAYS SPICES.

SALT, GARLIC, ONION AND PAPRIKA.

DOESN'T HELL US A LOT.

I KNOW IT'S WHAT I LIKE.

SO HERE WE ARE GOING TO COME BACK.

NOW THAT'S GOT SOME SALT IT IN, YOU NEED SALT IN YOUR PORK.

SEA SALT ON HERE TO GO ALONG WITH THAT.

AND OF COURSE.

>> Nicki: YOUR FAVORITE TELECHERRY.

THE PEPPER BAND IT SENT US A LETTER.

>> Tim: HERE'S WHAT IT SAID.

LOOKS LIKE PRISON MAIL.

Mr. TIM FARMER AND YOUR ACCOMPLICES NICKI AND KELLY.

I HAVE PEOPLE WANTING TO KNOW WHERE I KEEP MY CAMEL AND IF I WOULD GIVE THEM RIDES.

THANKS, NAVY VETERANS ARE MAD AT ME FOR GROUNDING THEIR SUBMARINE ON A ROCK PILE.

I HAVE BEEN BANNED FROM THE FOOD DEPARTMENT AT KROGER'S AND WAL-MART.

>> Nicki: HE SHOULD BE THOUGH.

>> Tim: IF I WANT TO BUY GROCERIES I HAVE TO GO CLEAR TO TENNESSEE WHERE THEY DON'T KNOW ME.

THINKING ABOUT MOVING TO ALASKA AND LIVING OFF GRID AS LONG AS I CAN FIND PEPPER.

ALL DONATIONS TO HELP MOVE WOULD BE ACCEPTED.

SEND CREDIT CARD AND BANK ACCOUNT NUMBER.

I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO KEEP THE BLACK PEPPER REHAB A SECRET BUT THE FARMER IS LOOKING FOR ME AND HIS GETAWAY... >> Nicki: WE'VE GOTTEN TO HIM.

>> Tim: HIS PEPPER WAYS HAVE BEEN FOUND OUT.

>> Nicki: THAT'S RIGHT.

>> Tim: BACK TO THIS.

YOU ARE GOING TO USE THIS SO NO SENSE IN GETTING YOUR HANDS DIRTY BECAUSE WE HAVE TO HANDLE OTHER STUFF.

DOES THAT MAKE YOU HUNGRY RIGHT THERE.

>> Nicki: I'M STARVING AS ALWAYS.

>> Tim: A LITTLE OLIVE OIL.

>> Nicki: TO HELP HOLD EVERYTHING ON.

>> Tim: AND WHEN THESE ARE DONE, YOU HAVE THE CHOICE, IT'S ALL UP TO YOU.

DO YOU WANT TO PUT SOME BARBECUE SAUCE ON THIS?

YOU CAN.

MAKE SOME BARBECUE SAUCE, TOO.

I'M WORKING ON A COUPLE DIFFERENT BARBECUE SAUCES NOW.

I LIKE THE MUSTARD VINEGAR BASE AND I HAVE A SWEET GOOD ONE OUT THERE.

THIS SMELLS SO-- DO YOU SMELL THAT.

>> Nicki: IT SMELLS REALLY GOOD.

>> Tim: I'M GOING TO COME BACK WITH EVEN MORE PAPRIKA.

THIS IS A SMOKY PAPRIKA CHIPOTLE.

>> Nicki: GOOD STUFF.

>> Tim: THIS TOPS IT OFF.

GIVES I A GOOD SMOKY FLAVOR.

WE HAVE OUR OVEN UP TO 250°.

THESE ARE NOT AS THICK AS WE'VE HAD THEM BEFORE.

I'M GOING TO CHECK THE INTERNAL TEMPERATURE IN A HALF HOUR AND SEE WHERE WE'RE AT.

LET'S POP THAT IN.

SECOND SHELF.

250.

BOOM.

WE WERE AT THE ARCHITECTURAL SALVAGE PLACE IN LOUISVILLE AND I REMEMBER MY GREAT AUNT'S BACKYARD.

SHE HAD ALL THESE WROUGHT IRON DIFFERENT HOLDERS FOR PLANTS.

THEN SHE HAD THE BALL, THE MIRROR BALL, THE BLUE ON THE STAND.

AND SHE HAD THIS BEAUTIFUL GARDEN AREA.

I REMEMBER THOSE IRON HOLDERS, PLANT HOLDERS.

WHAT WOULD YOU CALL THEM.

>> Nicki: PLANT HOLDER, I GUESS.

>> Tim: YOU SAW THOSE.

>> Nicki: I WANTED ONE BAD.

PLEASE BUY ME ONE AND YOU DID.

>> Tim: FOR?

>> Nicki: ALL MY SPICES AND I LOVE IT.

>> Tim: WE NEEDED FRESH PARSLEY TONIGHT SO THIS THING IS OVERGROWN.

DON'T FORGET TO TOP YOUR BASIL.

INSTEAD OF ALL THE ENERGY GOING TOWARDS THE TOP OF THE PLANT, THE FLOWERS, JUST WHEN THEY TOP TOBACCO, POP IT OFF OF THERE.

SO THAT'S GOING TO BE OUR LAST THING.

WE DON'T HAVE ANY DESSERT TONIGHT.

>> Nicki: BECAUSE WE ARE BEING HEALTHY.

>> Tim: BECAUSE WE JUST CAME OFF VACATION.

>> Nicki: WE DON'T NEED ANY.

>> Tim: TA-DAH, WE HAVE A WORK AREA.

>> Nicki: PERFECT.

>> Tim: THE PEELINGS ON THE CARROTS, THERE ARE A LOT OF VITAMINS THERE.

THESE HAVE BEEN WASHED THOROUGHLY.

WE ARE GOING TO MAKE OUR SAUCE.

WE LOOK AT THE BEETS AND THE CARROTS AND HEY, THERE IS NOT ONE THING TO DO.

TAKE THE SLICER, WATCH HOW SIMPLE AND FUN THIS IS.

>> Nicki: YOU LOVE THAT, DON'T YOU?

>> Tim: WE ARE GOING TO EAT THE PEELINGS ON THESE.

I ENJOY DOING THIS FOR SOME REASON.

I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHY.

>> Nicki: IT'S FUN.

LOOK HOW PERFECT YOU ARE CUTTING THESE.

VERY NICE.

>> Tim: VERY NICE.

I CUT THOSE IN HALF.

THERE IS A GOOD START ON OUR SLAW.

SO NOW,... NOW WE ARE GOING TO TAKE OUR BEETS.

WE KNOW HOW GOOD BEETS ARE FOR US.

NICKI IS HOLDING THE BEETS WITH THE PAPER TOWEL SO SHE DOESN'T GET PURPLE FINGERS.

>> Nicki: FOR DAYS.
