The New Homestead Act 2025

[00:00:03] You're listening here to PBN. You will pay off back the stability here.

[00:00:32] Welcome in. The New Homestead Act 2025. What was the old Homestead Act? Homestead Acts were several laws in the United States by which an applicant could acquire ownership of government land or public domain typically called a homestead. More than 160 million acres. This was the pioneering movement, right, to run out there and get your acreage.

[00:01:01] 10% of the total area of the United States were given away free to 1.6 million homesteaders. Most of the homesteads were west of the Mississippi. These acts were the first sovereign decisions of the post-war North-South capitalist cooperation in the United States. The original Homestead Act. What I didn't know, and I'm not sure if you knew this, and this is Wikipedia, so who the hell knows?

[00:01:30] Hunter SF over in X-Land says, what in the freeloading hippies is going on around here? Stick with me, man. So an extension of the homestead principle in law, the Homestead Acts were an expression of the free soil policy of northerners who wanted individual farmers to own and operate their own farms,

[00:01:52] as opposed to southern slave owners who wanted to buy up large tracts of land and use slave labor, thereby shutting out free white farmers. I didn't know that. I had no idea that was part of the deal. So, that was the original sort of intent. Cheers, PBN family. Nice coffee, snow day. Disastercoffee.com. Check them out.

[00:02:20] That's what I'll be sipping today. That was the original intent. Morning. Morning, morning to Phoenix. Next. Yesterday, we happened upon by accident, just by chit-chatting with the chat, talking about whatever China and tariffs and all these kinds of things and electric batteries and solar panels and tax write-offs with solar panels.

[00:02:45] We kind of stumbled into this jokey idea of, like, why can't we're in an egg crisis, right? Nobody can get eggs. Eggs are worth, you know, you're given, like, kidneys for eggs or whatever. They're ripping trucks off full of eggs. I ate at IHOP on the weekend, and it didn't even cross my mind. You know what I mean? Like, my plan was to eat at IHOP and go take care of something with my kids.

[00:03:13] And, you know, it just didn't even cross my mind until I tasted the eggs. They weren't good. There was something wrong with them. I didn't even eat them. I told my kids not to eat the eggs, you know? So, you know, this – two things. You don't know what you're getting now that we're at the bottom of the barrel, so be careful, number one.

[00:03:35] Number two, this is one of those pure examples of how you forget about what everybody else is worrying about when you're self-reliant. And even in just a couple ways, you know? Like, it didn't even cross my mind. Like, you're going to IHOP. This is an eggy place.

[00:03:55] But anyway, yesterday we got into this conversation about homesteading and, you know, the reality that homesteading is highly valuable. And not only highly valuable to the people who homestead, but also, like, you want to talk about making America great again or really making a powerful nation. Do you know what I mean? Like, you want to really talk about – and I've been saying this since 2018.

[00:04:23] But really making a powerful nation is about the individual and the power that we all hold, right? It's the old you're only as strong as your weakest link mentality. We start talking about why can't I get a tax write-off for my chicken coop? You know what I mean? If I'm taking care – if I'm not adding to the problem of the egg shortage, why can't I get a write-off on my chicken coop and my chickens? And I started thinking about the grift. The grift. Born to brap at YouTube.

[00:04:53] What's up? Hey, everybody at X and at Rumble and at YouTube, hit the thumbs up for me. I really don't know if – here's the thing. I really don't know if it matters. Our audience is growing, particularly at X. It's going to grow organically through all this live streaming, and it's not really something I'm all that concerned about. Now, in all honesty, if you're there, hit it.

[00:05:23] Do you know what I mean? Like why wouldn't you? Sort of what gets stuck in my head when I go to a video and I don't see any likes on it is it's more personal than anything, just so you know. Like it's not like, oh, we need to get X amount of likes. We're not monetized on YouTube. We'll never – probably never monetize on YouTube because they're evil unless something changes with Google. But anyway, oh, the snowflakes are falling. But anyway, it's just – it's highly personal to me.

[00:05:49] Like Born to Brap – I'm calling you out not to call you out, just to, you know, the example. Born to Braps at YouTube. If I check the analytics on YouTube and there's no like thumbs up, then I go, I wonder why my man didn't hit the thumbs up. It takes two seconds. You know what I'm saying? I don't know. It's just a personal little thing. I go to Rumble and I see no thumbs up. I go to X and I see like no hearts or something like that on a video early on. And I know we were live and you were there. Just hit it.

[00:06:18] It takes two seconds. It'll make me feel much better. It'll make me feel like I got you in my corner. You know what I mean? Because, I don't know, just personal. So anyway, we kind of wandered into this jokingly. This idea about homesteading and, you know, how do we drive people into that mentality of self-sufficiency? What could a new Homestead Act look like in 2025?

[00:06:47] What would that look like? You know, and that sent me down a rabbit hole of like, what are people really capable of? What could that really do for the country? And then how can I present that to you guys? And I found a really great website here, this Backyard Farming Coalition. And they had some stats. Now, the stats were put together by a variety of places, one of which was China, a Chinese university.

[00:07:13] But, you know, to some degree that's important because one of China's biggest concerns is undoubtedly like, how do we feed all these billion and a half damn near people? So I think, you know, I think there's some validity there. But it was a bunch of universities that did it. You know what I mean? And they took the time to really look at these statistics. And yeah, you know what I mean? You start the statistics.

[00:07:39] We all already know in our heart of hearts that if 50 percent of America had backyard chickens and serious like backyard gardens and were providing food for themselves, their families. Oh, and by the way, their neighbors. Right. Because you know what having a garden is. You know what having cherry tomatoes and zucchini is and eggplant. Excuse me. You're giving food away.

[00:08:01] So if we were in an abundance of because that's what, you know, even a small garden, I don't have a very big garden. You know what I mean? Even in a small garden, you can get into abundance rapidly and you're like, oh, God, I got to get rid of some. It's going bad. I'm throwing stuff away like it doesn't take a lot of space. It takes three, four beds for the average American. Right. Small beds to be in that kind of abundant situation.

[00:08:29] So, you know, you imagine a nation where 50 percent or so is doing stuff like that, cranking out eggs out back, cranking out, you know, kale and whatever, whatever stuff you like. Green beans, really dense, nutrient dense food like. I know your head's where my head is. I don't know how you get everybody else's head there, but if you let's say you took a chunk of your diet and threw it in the trash and replaced it with.

[00:08:57] Your own grown vegetables, your own raised eggs. What? How can you imagine the effect on health care right off the bat? Right. You took like lucky charms out of your life. Not permanently. I eat lucky charms. Love them. Right. Right. But if you eat lucky charms every morning, you got health problems, most likely, particularly in your 30s and beyond. Right. You take sugary cereal out of your life. You replace it with four eggs in the morning. Right.

[00:09:27] And then in the afternoon, you're eating whatever grilled chicken and whatever you get out of your garden. Like. The average person's health is going to improve vastly. You know, you add some kind of physical fitness to that. It's. It's epic. It's an epic change. It really would be an epic. Now, let's look at it, you know, without my meanderings. Let's look at it with the real statistics from this website here. Backyard Farming Connection.

[00:09:55] I know nothing about this site, but they had a good collection of stats. Unfortunately, they don't tell you. Let's see before we get into it, if I can find the. See, in the Google search, it told me exactly where the information came from. And it was a variety of. We can look at the sources. You can, you know, you can check it out. This is an amazing thing, though.

[00:10:24] This is an amazing article. I'm going to actually save this for my own history because it's it's huge. So homesteading statistics via food production. Right. Let's start there. Urban agriculture could produce up to one hundred and eighty million metric tons of food a year around 10 percent of the current global output of vegetable crops.

[00:10:46] So whenever we have a wildfire, whenever we have a situation, a trade war, a natural disaster and everybody's sitting there quivering because they're like, oh, they grow a lot of food here. Or if we have like a maybe a giant war with the breadbasket of Europe. You don't have to sit there and be like, oh, my. Oh, here you go. Here you go. Arizona State University. Google China's Tsingsu University, California University, Berkeley and the University of Hawaii.

[00:11:16] So, you know, you know, there's a there's a lean there, but it might see here's the other thing about homesteading. It's like I wrote in my book way, way back. Way, way back. I wrote this book and the way I told people to get together with neighbors was very simple. It was. All about. Community garden.

[00:11:46] Start with the community garden. Why? Because we were a little, little, little bit divisive back then, not nearly as divisive as we are now with one another. But in 2015, we were still a little bit divisive. And basically my my understanding was it takes almost almost no one is going to say no to a community garden. And I think homesteading now because of 2020 and everything that happened with that is kind of the next step. It's the next phase.

[00:12:14] It's like it doesn't matter who you voted for. It doesn't matter where you fall in the political spectrum. You want your own eggs and your own vegetables and maybe some collected rainwater and maybe some solar power. Right. These things make sense. They're easy. You know what I mean? It crosses the whole political line. So.

[00:12:35] According to the same study, same sources, urban agriculture, if it pumped out 180 million metric tons of food a year, be worth 160 billion annually around the globe. Again, you think about this in terms of American power to stand on its own two feet like a food source produced by the people for the people. And then tax deducted.

[00:13:03] Just based off purchases or output or whatever, whatever, you know. The grift, the left wing grift being all sort of shifted out and filtered out of the system now is going to make way for tax breaks like this, I think. Like I read when I would I looked up left wing grift because I was going to do a podcast on it. Like I just wanted to see if someone had collected all the grifting.

[00:13:29] In other words, all the money that the left has made that these. Licentious, loud leaders of the left have sucked out of the system by lying to bleeding heart, empathetic people who wanted to make a difference. Maybe I wanted to I wanted a source for like, you know, what kind of how much money have people made basically off of these movements.

[00:13:59] And the only thing that came up in Google was a Reddit post. And it was how come only right wingers get grift? I just thought it was so funny. But it's all, you know, it's all coming to light. So it doesn't really matter. Livestock on homesteads. Down here on number eight, 55 percent of homesteaders raise livestock with chickens, goats, cows being most popular choices. That really is sort of the difference, right?

[00:14:25] If you're a backyard gardener or one of these people's with a crazy garden, right? It's like I'm a gardener. But the moment you put six chickens in the backyard, you're a homesteader. So that's kind of like how it feels to me. In a survey, 91 percent of homesteaders cite itself. Sufficiency is the primary reason for adopting a homesteading lifestyle. Oh, here you go. The rise in chickens here. Number five. This is good because chickens are the they're the key. Like I always they're the key.

[00:14:56] Just for a number of they break the mold. They crack they like they shatter that sort of paradigm between what you can do in your backyard and you're a crazy person. Right. It's like, well, you know, you can grow as many vegetables as you want. And it's almost admirable to have a really big garden and a cool garden and stuff like that. Then when if we can normalize the chicken thing, you normalize the chicken thing. And then you go like, oh, yeah, of course, it's easy. It's fun.

[00:15:25] You know, everybody that shifts the paradigm big time. It moves the Overton window, if you will. The number of backyard chickens in the United States has increased by five hundred and eighty two percent between 2015 and 2020. You know, so like it's already moving this way. Now we need to reward it to increase it. You know what I mean? You reward it to increase it. That's about as far as I got on this thing. Vegetable production.

[00:15:54] Home gardeners produced over one point six billion pounds of vegetables in the United States in 2020. That has to be an underestimate. That has to be a vast underestimate because I've never excuse me, I've never reported it. I know many gardeners who have never reported a single pound of vegetables. I don't know how anybody would even know that people are producing that much. So.

[00:16:18] It's got to be if they if they've collected data on one point six billion pounds, it's got to be way underrepresented. Honey production. That's another big one we've never gotten into. The rise in farmers markets. Da da da. Homesteading statistics changes. Urban farming has grown more than 30 percent in 30 years. The fastest growing sector, hydroponic vertical urban farming.

[00:16:46] Yeah, that makes sense. You know, that's that thing that those of you out there with the small backyards, you know, you think there's no way I can do it. Oh, yeah. You can do it in a shed. You know what I mean? You can do it in a dining room. I was talking to a company today. They have a really cool unit. I'll show you soon. Eighty one percent of hydroponic farms in the world are in the United States.

[00:17:12] Vertical farming can dramatically increase food for food production. When strawberries are planted vertically, it can result in as much as a three thousand percent increase. Wow. I'm growing my strawberries wrong. So maybe we got to go up with the next batch. Makes sense, too. Keeps it away from some predators. History facts about backyard farming. OK, enough said. Enough said, right?

[00:17:42] Let me. How do I do this again? There we go. Boom. Enough said. You guys get the point, right? On in terms of that. Where's our background at? What's going on here? Where are my shows? Where are my wonderful hosts? There we go. Boom. OK. What else?

[00:18:10] That's my question to you, the audience today is what else? What what else would we add? In other words, you're going to send me to Congress. Right. And I'm going to walk in there with some papers in my hand, a stack of papel. And I'm going to like. Present something. What am I presenting? Tax cuts for. Urban farming and or even just homesteading in general, livestock and chicken keeping.

[00:18:40] And, you know, we already have the solar panel breakdown. What about water catchment, food storage, supplies? You know, it's crazy to me. Everything that can be pointed towards self-sufficiency should be tax deductible. Canning jars, canners, your harvest right should be tax deductible. You know what? Why not? If it's self-sufficiency, self-sufficiency is the empowerment of the individual.

[00:19:08] The empowerment of the individual in the United States is the empowerment of the United States. That's pretty that's pretty good. I did that on the fly. Didn't write that down. But that's I mean, that's basically what it is. Right. The empowerment of the individuals, the empowerment of the United States and self-sufficiency is the way there. It's probably the most direct route there aside from like wealth. But even then, you know, if you don't know how to handle it, you could be like I read an article yesterday.

[00:19:35] I wanted to put it on the show, but it's about these billionaire kids who are inheriting their inheriting wealth and they don't want it. And they're being courted by like demons who are like, we're going to take that money and put it towards a good cause. And you know where it's going. Yeah, it's very interesting little tale. But what else? You know what I mean? Think about I'm not you don't have to solve the world's problems right here and now on the on the fly.

[00:20:04] But this is something I want to talk about and I want to explore legitimately because I think the Homesteading Act 2025 has legs. You know, it can empower people who are already doing it. It can reward people who are not putting a further strain on the system for, you know, situations just like we're in with the egg situation. Tax deduction if you start a biz.

[00:20:31] OK, homesteading businesses, tax deductions. Yeah. Well, Hunter, you bring up a good choice, man. You are sort of our our swami on the on the blacksmithing side of things. And that is look, that is self-sufficiency as far as I'm concerned. You know, you see people make knives and, you know, cool stuff, weapons, that kind of stuff.

[00:20:56] But there are a lot of utilities that you can make for your home with with basic blacksmithing. It's also a lot of repurposing and recycling that goes along with blacksmithing, you know. So, yeah, I just think that these things should be outlined, the woodworking, the you know, all that kind of stuff, the crafts, craftsmanship, cheese making, soap, whatever. And they should all be tax deductible. If you if you start a business. Yeah, why not? Why not?

[00:21:26] But there's more there. You know, there's definitely more there. There is, you know, there are, you know, what you give. What you give in it all. Maybe, you know, we used to receive donations to the food bank. I don't know if that's the best way to give or not. Hunter SF says they do tax free in Texas for emergency prep day. I wonder if freeze drying would count. Yeah, see, that's what I mean. We get it. We were just we got to push the cart like just over the hump.

[00:21:54] You know, like everybody's kind of there. They watch people who do the things that we do and they go like, man, I want that. Like, I don't want to worry about every problem that happens in the world and go, oh, my God, am I going to have this? Oh, my God, am I going to have that? Oh, my God, am I going to have power? Am I going to you know? And I just feel like the. Really, what it is, is it's the antithesis to the Green New Deal, right?

[00:22:18] The Green New Deal was let's take billions and hundreds of billions of dollars, push it up to companies out to China, you know, out to grifters who are going to tell you, like, this is the way. And then never really do anything to help you, because, you know, despite the wind farms, the solar farms, the solar panels on roofs, the energy companies telling you, hey, we're now generating X amount of watts in solar power.

[00:22:47] And I'm sitting here like this, like, OK, if you're pulling free power from the sun, then my energy bill should go down any day now, right? Any day now, my power bill should go down because you're not burning coal. You're not you know what I mean? Why is my energy bill going up? What's going on? Tax free or not, I don't want to spend 1.5 to 2k on a freeze drive. Hey, look, freeze drive is not for everybody. You know what I mean?

[00:23:13] If you want to live on limited amount of power through solar panels and stuff like that, the battery bank, the last thing you want to do is run a freeze dryer. You know, it's and I'm telling you from not my own perspective, but Rick Austin, who lives that way, he uses a freeze dryer, but he says it takes a lot of power. So that's something to consider. You ready for a break? Let's get into some.

[00:23:43] SHTF Chef. What do you guys think of this anyway? It's not bad. It's it'll start to build on the membership side and it'll become I mean, really basically become a recipe book fundamentally. So today, tomato sauce.

[00:24:08] This is like the 10, 12 year tomato sauce recipe that it's sort of like, you know, there's a slow and long and boring way to do it. And then there's a oh shit, we need something to eat right now way to do it. You know what I mean? And I think it's important to have both the Sunday sauce and the Monday sauce. Maybe that's the way we should put it. You know what I mean?

[00:24:35] Like it's the Sunday sauce and the Monday sauce, because Sunday you start the sauce at 10 o'clock in the morning and you eat at six or whatever, five, four. And you got meatballs and sausage in it and it's cooking all day. It's momentous. Right. And and then you have. And then you have the, you know, the Monday sauce, which is we got in late. I literally did this yesterday. That's why it's making me laugh.

[00:25:04] Hunter SF says a spiral bound cookbook, please. We'll get there. We'll get there. All these are going to be posted on the membership side. I did the Moros recipe on the membership side of SHTF chef last week. We're going to do the commander sauce over there. It'll show up just like this, the graphic, this video. What did I do? Video. I don't remember. Neither here nor there. We're going to go over the recipe here and I'll sort of talk you through the ins and outs. You know what I mean?

[00:25:32] The other thing about this recipe that's really cool is you could double it, triple it, 10 exit and then can it because it's good. The only thing that's not in here that does add to it, and I probably should put it in here. I might actually modify the graphic as an optional ingredient. Oh, and the graphic will be better than this one. For some reason, it stretches. I got to figure out how to fix that. It's the meat. Meat makes a big difference.

[00:26:00] You know, fundamentally, this is like a bowl of gnazi base that I do. Nah, not necessarily because this is a pretty thick sauce when it's all said and done. But, you know, tablespoon, good olive oil, good stuff, the best stuff you can get. I know a lot of people say you shouldn't cook with good extra virgin olive oil. I do it all the time, especially when I'm making sauce. But my sauces are oily, right? They're as oily as my dago hair. That's how it goes, right? It's in my blood.

[00:26:31] So, small yellow onion. I use about a half. About a half an onion. I should say half. Peeled and chopped. You know, quarter inch dice, something like that. Four garlic cloves, crushed. I slice them. I don't mince them down. I like my sauce to have, you know, chunks. I'm a chunky sauce guy. My wife likes it that way, too. So, you know, you're going to sweat these things out is what you're going to do to start. Remember we talked about sweating before? Low heat.

[00:27:00] Moving it around a lot over medium-low heat. You don't want browning. No browning, right? We want translucent onions. We want softened garlic. That's the sweating process. Essential. You know what I mean? If you're going to make soup, if you're going to make sauce, you got to know how to sweat. So, we're sweating these things out. Once we get them where we want them, this is where we add the wine. The wine, okay? Cup of red wine. Now, if you were doing meat, you'd brown the meat first.

[00:27:31] Take the meat out of the pot, right? Brown it up real good the way you want it. We used – last night I used a half a pound. Sometimes I do a whole pound when I'm doing sauce like this quick of ground turkey. Boom. Brown out into the – but you could use ground beef. Awesome. Awesome, right? Pull the meat out. Sweat out your vegetables. All the brown bits on the pan are going to start to get dark. You know what I mean? They're almost going to like start to burn a little bit. They won't burn, but they'll get dark. You know what I mean?

[00:27:59] And that's the flavor. De-glaze that whole pan with your red wine, right? Cup of red wine. I don't know if it's a cup. I dump it out of a bottle. That looks good. I just put a cup. And maybe cook that down to about half. You know, reduce it down to about – it'll happen fast because your pot's going to be hot, all that kind of stuff. And then you're going to add your crushed tomatoes, diced tomatoes into that.

[00:28:26] San – a very popular brand of canned crushed tomatoes with the lady on the front with the basket of tomatoes I think she has. The Italian cartoon woman. They make one with basil. It's like a canned crushed tomato with basil. And that's the one. That's the one you want. That one's tremendous. Though I do buy the cheaper ones too.

[00:28:56] You know what I mean? So when budget counts or when budget is important, I will buy the 89-cent can of crushed tomatoes. $1.29 or something like that. So either one. Either one works. But the basil – the one with basil, you'll know it when you see it. It's a difference maker. So crushed tomatoes, Italian-style diced tomatoes in there. This is just – the reason that you could use regular diced tomatoes, it'll turn out great. When I learned to cook, it's all about layers of flavor.

[00:29:26] You know what I mean? You add onions, use salt. You add garlic, use salt a little. Salt and pepper. You add the crushed tomatoes. You want something to go in there to add layers of flavor. So I get the Italian-style crushed and diced. We've got the red wine going in. And then everything else basically on the list goes in next. So stir it all up. Add your ground garlic, your oregano, your Italian seasoning. Your sugar is essential. If you don't like sugar, use oregano or honey.

[00:29:55] Use whatever the hell else you use to sweeten. But canned tomatoes need sweetness. It's all about balance. It's essential. You know what I mean? It's essential. And then I add another big tablespoon of olive oil. Like a – I don't measure it. But I'll take that olive oil bottle, you know? Because I love that stuff. Not only do I love that stuff, but I know how good it is for everybody who's going to eat it. You know what I mean?

[00:30:23] I know how good it is for everybody who's going to eat it. It's just amazing. This whole recipe is just filled with like incredible things for you. You know what I mean? If it's not the dead of winter, then I'm going to add fresh chiffonade of basil, which is just finely sliced basil. I'm going to add oregano, you know, midway through the process, basil at the end. And that, you know, I'm going to just make it good.

[00:30:53] So you could simmer this 30 minutes to an hour, something like that. 30 minutes to an hour. If you got 30 minutes, give it 30 minutes. If you can go an hour, go an hour. Like I said, if you can put the meat in it, then it's going to have even more flavor. But this recipe in and of itself will get it done. Like I said, you can cook it for 30 minutes to an hour or you could cook it for, I'd recommend you cover it if you're going to do it this long for four or six hours. Right? No stock.

[00:31:22] You don't need anything like that. This is the core. This is the core. L2 Survive. What is up? The nub is with us. Go to YouTube. L2 Survive. YouTube channel, man. Check him out. Give him a thumbs up too, man. Sorry. We had a little bit of a talk about thumbs ups and likes and all that kind of stuff earlier today. So that's the commander sauce. That's it. You want to know exactly what I do when I come home or when I wake up and I'm saying like I want some good tomato sauce today.

[00:31:51] This is how I do it with canned goods. You know, with canned tomato and stuff like that. This is exactly how I do it. I've been doing it this way a very long time. My mother does a little different. She adds tomato paste to hers. Probably just as good. It's one less thing to buy. So I don't do it. One less thing to manage. All that kind of stuff. But this should be in your back pocket. Everybody within the sound of my voice should be able to make a tomato sauce like this.

[00:32:20] There's nothing hard about this. The hardest part is cutting the onion. Literally. It's the hardest part. The hardest part is having the knife skills to cut the onion. Like if you can cut the onion up into small pieces, that's it. The garlic, smash it. Just smash it and throw it in smashed. You don't even have to cut it if you don't want to. The only other thing you're doing is opening two cans. You're opening two cans and then you're putting some spices into a pot.

[00:32:47] You can cover it if you want to cook it for 30 minutes pretty quick and that'll help you keep it. You can rock it higher temperature without spitting all over the kitchen. You know what I mean? If you really want to make it move fast. And like I said, for the meat side of things, brown the meat first. Pound of meat for something like this is going to be phenomenal. I did a half a pound last night because my kids had already eaten. It was just going to be me and my wife. It's going to take the sauce up a whole other level.

[00:33:18] I think that's about it. But this is the thing you should do. This is the thing you should try. You should become very comfortable with it. And like I said, every so often, every so often, when you got a little extra money, you go to the store. You buy four cans of crushed tomatoes. Four cans of Italian-style diced tomatoes. Right? Hopefully, you already have plenty of onions and garlic at home.

[00:33:39] If you listen to my old advice, my old SHTF advice about buying the, you know, I think there's eight. No, they're, what are they? 12 ounce or something like the big spices. Buy the big. Stop buying the little jar. Buy the big spice. You're a cook now. You cook at home. Buy the big spices. Then you're always going to have ground garlic. You're always going to have Italian seasoning. You know what I mean? So you're always going to have it. You can take that. You can do a four times of this recipe.

[00:34:08] You'll probably get, I bet you'll get about eight to ten jars of sauce, you know, if you do it without meat. And maybe six to eight jars of sauce. And then you can them. You can them. It's a high acidity food. Very safe. You know, with no meat in it, it's super safe. High acidity food on the shelf. And just like that, you've got preserved tomatoes. So I used to preserve tomato sauce on like a Wednesday. Just out of extra sauce.

[00:34:38] I'd throw two jars in the cabinet pantry for later in the week or the next week or whatever. Like, you can do this stuff, man. You can do this stuff. It's easy. It's easy. It might be scary the first time you do it. You do it two times. You'll be like, oh, I'm a superstar. I got it. All right, folks. Listen. Visit our sponsors. LimaTangoSurvival.com.
