Chicken Bone Broth / Stock
Chicken Bone Broth / Stock
Ingredients:
young fryer chicken, not a hen
1 large carrot cut into four sections
2 stalks of celery (cut into large sections)
1 stick of salted butter
2 Tbsp chicken bouillon granules
1 onion (peeled & quartered)
Instructions:
Boil the chicken with the ingredients above, breast-side down, on a low simmer for 2 hours to flavor the stock.
Remove chicken with two large spoons and place on a platter. (Remove from bones after cooling.) Discard
bones and fat; strain the broth into a large pot or bowl to remove any floating vegetable pieces and skin.
NOTE: When you boil a chicken this long, the broth is “bone broth”. This means that when cooled, it
will resemble a gel instead of a liquid. This is because the gelatin in the bone is transferred into the
broth.
Pour stock into quart mason jars, place lids, and wipe with soapy water. Refrigerate. The chicken
and butter fat create a seal on top. With a good airtight seal (from fat), store in the fridge for up to 4 months.
Once the seal is broken, use it within 3 days.

Gatlinburg Roots
Gatlinburg Roots: The Clannish Inheritance
They came mostly from Scotland and Ireland—clannish people with dry humor and gunpowder tempers. Sentimental, too. Lovers of song. Respecters of God. Those traits didn’t fade in the mountains; they became the very structure of life.
When we say locals here, we are not talking about how long someone has lived in Gatlinburg. We are talking about original descendant families—those tracing back to the earliest settlers, beginning with Martha Jane Huskey Ogle and the mountain families who followed.
In isolation, family meant survival. Kin stayed close. Trust was earned and guarded. What later arrivals called “clannish” was simply a necessary inheritance, learned early and carried forward.
When those first settlers reached these ridges and saw the green giants of the Highlands rising before them, their hearts softened because they recognized a mirror of themselves. These mountains required the same fierce loyalty, restraint, and endurance that these families already carried in their blood. They didn't find a place to change; they found a place that allowed them to stay exactly who they were.
What some call clannishness is simply memory holding its ground.
Follow the Legacy Gatlinburg Roots is an ongoing heritage project sharing rare images, forgotten family stories, and voices from the mountains — before the tourists, before the park, and before the name Gatlinburg became known around the world. If you grew up here, lived part of your life in these mountains, or know someone whose story needs to be told — we want to hear it. Your story could be featured in a future post.

Small Batch Cheddar Bay Biscuits
6 biscuits
1 cup self-rising flour
1 or 2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1/3 cup grated cheddar cheese
3 tablespoons grated salted butter
1/2 cup + 1 tablespoon buttermilk
1/4 cup melted butter with 1 teaspoon garlic powder & parsley flakes to be brushed on top
Preheat the oven to 450F.
Place parchment paper on a baking pan.
In a large bowl add self-rising flour, sugar, Old Bay seasoning, baking powder, baking soda and garlic powder.
Give that a good stir.
Then add three or four good sprinkles of parsley flakes.
Then give it another stir.
Add in the cheese and give that a good stir and separate all those little pieces of cheese.
Add in the grated butter. Work it in the flour gently but thoroughly. Coat every piece with the flour.
Then make a little well in your flour.
Pour in the 1/2 cup of buttermilk.
Stir the milk in with a dinner fork. This dough should be sticky. These are drop biscuits.
Then use an ice cream or cookie scoop, the kind with the leaver. You can also use two spoons.
Scop the biscuits out on a baking pan.
Pace the pan in the oven at 450° and let it cook for approximately 15 minutes.
You have to watch them. And then when they get just the way you like them, crispy brown on the top, you pull them out.
Melt about a quarter of a stick of butter and put some garlic powder in and a little of the parsley flakes.
Brush the tops of the biscuits with the melted butter while they are hot.

Cinnamon Roll Butter Swim Biscuits
Biscuit Ingredients"
yields 9 servings/biscuits
1/3 cup dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 1/4 cups heavy cream, divided
1/2 cup butter
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons white sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt or 1/2 iodized teaspoon salt
1 cup buttermilk
Topping Ingredients:
1 cup confectioners sugar
2 ounces cream cheese, softened
Directions
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Stir brown sugar, cinnamon, and 2 tablespoons heavy cream together in a small bowl until smooth and set aside.
Place butter in an 8x8-inch baking dish and microwave on high until melted.
Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl.
Add 1 cup heavy cream and buttermilk and stir until just blended.
Pour half the batter into the buttered dish.
Spoon brown sugar mixture randomly over the top of the batter.
Use a case/butter knife to slightly swirl the mixture.
Top with the remaining batter.
Batter will be thick, so gently and quickly spread batter as evenly as possible over cinnamon mixture.
Use a knife to "cut" the batter into 9 squares.
Bake in the preheated oven until biscuits are evenly browned and cooked through, 25 to 39 minutes.
Every oven is different so check center biscuit for doneness.
As biscuits bake whisk together confectioner’s sugar, cream cheese and remaining heavy cream until smooth.
Spread this mixture evenly over the hot biscuits.
Serve warm or at room temperature.

A Christmas Song I Learned in the 4th Grade
https://youtu.be/zZ3sICMeiZk?si=OdINYKMTeOAMpki4
Christmas Is Coming
Christmas is coming
The goose is getting fat
Please put a penny
In an old the man's hat
If you have no penny (or/ "If you haven't got a penny")
A hay penny will do
If you have no hay penny
Then GOD bless you
Christmas is coming
The lights are on the tree
Hang up your stocking
For Saint Nick to see
If you haven't got a stocking
A little sock will do
If you havent go a little sock
Then GOD bless you
Christmas is coming
The season of good cheer
Let's all sin a carol
For the brand new year
If you haven't got a carol
A jolly song will do
If you haven't got a jolly song
Then GOD bless you
Christmas is coming
The goose is getting fat
Please put a penny
In the old man's hat
If you have no penny
A hay penny will do
If you have no hay penny
Then GOD bless you
