ST. HELENA ISLAND, SOUTH CAROLINA - Today we’re visiting St. Helena in South Carolina, an island that’s preserved much of its Gullah Geechee and Lowcountry heritage, culture and food.
We have the honor of meeting up with Tony and Belinda Jones from Morning Glory Homestead - www.morninggloryhomestead.com/ to learn about Gullah Geechee history and cook a full farm to table southern USA, lowcountry meal. On the menu is one of the greatest dishes of all time, shrimp and okra, with local grits, rice, and fried whiting fish.
We picked our own okra from the farm, and cooked everything fresh Gullah Geechee style under the sweeping live oak trees.
Thank you again to Tony and Belinda Jones from Morning Glory Homestead - www.morninggloryhomestead.com/ for hosting me for this incredible Gullah Geechee food and cultural experience in South Carolina.

Mark, you have the COURAGE to use your platform to highlight cuisine that don’t get the attention that they deserve. Gullah cuisine is one that has influenced every aspect of American life. Continued Blessings to you and your family, Sir! Excellent Post👍🏾

Hey mark! I’m from Charleston, South Carolina and I’ve been watching your videos for…YEARS. I was really shocked to see that you tried food from Charleston, literally minutes from where I live. Not only is South Carolina known for its food, but it’s culture as well. Thank you so much for making this video, as it hits really close to home!

Deep fried fish that’s cooked outside hits so different 🤤
-
Mark always does his homework about a native cuisine and treats the people preparing the food with respect What I like too is he doesn't pretend the facts of history doesn't exist or diminish the courage and efforts of the people to survive such a history
-
There's nothing like beautiful home cooking made with fresh ingredients just picked from the garden.
-
I am Gullah by ethnicity, and St Helena Island is right here in Beaufort County where I live. I wish I had known Mark and his family were right here! Everything he learned about this area and our culture are on point! Glad he got to try our cuisine!
-
So proud of my Gullah ancestors! ✊🏿🌍
-
As a born and raised southern gal - you can’t get more southern than this! This is our Deep South goodness! I’m glad you liked it and presenting it! Also, the hot sauce is a must! No matter how good the dish is, you need hot sauce!

I love that Micah is getting a well rounded education about world cultures
-
I can't see this channel losing popularity any time soon because it's like two genres rolled into one - mukbang and travel vlog. People get to live vicariously through Mark.
-
As a native of Jacksonville, FL, I want to thank you for highlighting both Gullah and southern cuisine. It's a unique part of the country, and the world, and it deserves to have a light shone upon it. Also... pickled okra is heaven on earth!!
-
Mark you're an exemplary husband and father you're rarely seen without your family.
-
Mark this really blessed me. Thank you for highlighting the elements of their faith, food, and culture. Enjoyed seeing Ying enjoy the food with you and your interactions Tony and Belinda was wondering and I love how Tony scolded you cleaning the shrimp, that man is passionate about what he does and it show in his the quality of his life work.

If they don't teach history in school we shall learn it right here. I'm grateful. This is amazing.

WowAmazing!!! I'm from Sierra Leone and I paused the video inorder to take a look at the GULLAH NYEW TESTAMENT and to my suprise i can read and translate everything! We use the same Alphabet over here in Sierra Leone and here we call this language Creole😂😂. We are indeed one people!. They indeed hold on to their Africaness!! I'm so happy to have came across this video.

Thank you Tony for your service and blessings to you and your wife for being so calm and humble. Absolutely so proud of you both
-
Beautiful - such a calm, peaceful homestead. Thank you Tony and Belinda
-
The look she gave Mark when he bit into the whole fish!!!😂😂😂😂 She must not know how passionate our guy is!!! We rock with Mark!
-
It’s amazing how Mark is able to distinguish all the different spices put into a dish….”You taste the Coriander seed, the allspice..hint of clove and nutmeg” he has tried so many dishes and spices across the world, he’s able to give you the recipe without seeing it 🙌

This was great. Nice to see Mark get off the beaten path when he travels to the USA - there is so much regional food diversity in the USA that is easy to overlook.
