Hobos Ate Leather Pants?! (A Real Depression-Era Poor Man’s Meal!)

Did hobos really eat leather pants? The answer might surprise you! In this episode, we take a funny but historically accurate look at Leather Breeches — an old Appalachian and Depression-era dish made from dried green beans that were strung up like “pants” and cooked with bacon grease. Hobos riding the rails, mountain families, and woodsmen all depended on meals like this to get through hard times. Today, we recreate this real poor man’s meal just as it might have been cooked over a 1930s campfire: dried beans, lard or bacon grease, salt, a cast iron pot, and a little ingenuity. Along the way, we explore: Why they were called “leather pants” How dried beans were preserved before refrigeration Why this simple food kept people alive during the Depression How hobos and woodsmen adapted basic ingredients for survival If you enjoy Great Depression cooking, hobo history, classic bushcraft, or forgotten survival foods, this episode brings all of that together with a fun twist. ?

Planning Your Silver Bull Market Exit Strategy

The recent physical silver shortage and the run-up in the spot and futures prices of silver (around $59 USD per Troy ounce the last time that I checked) has prompted me to issue some supplementary advice about how and when to SELL some of your silver.  We should all be ready to start slowly SELLING or trading a large part of our silver once the spot price passes $125 per ounce.  There will almost certainly be a peak and then a crash in silver. I don’t have a crystal ball, but I’ll go out on a limb and predict that … The post Planning Your Silver Bull Market Exit Strategy appeared first on SurvivalBlog.com.
