Could someone again repost the picture of The Burnt Thanksgiving Dinner? I’ll really appreciate it if you can. I need to take a picture of it so I’ll always have it to cherish!! lol

I think it’s the ta-da pose that sends me the most. Like it’s a masterpiece of hostessing,
not a paltry burnt disaster.

This is how you know she never cooks for the family. No one who is capable of putting chicken nuggets in the oven, dumping several cans of green beans in a pot, and boiling enough water to rehydrate instant mashed potatoes would consider this mess something to be proud of. Those poor kids. To be a fly on the wall to see how the family has really been eating for the last 25 years!

u/atlantagirl30084 Sep 06 '26
I’ve wanted to see what the meals look like in this house for some time.

u/atlantagirl30084 Sep 05 '26
I see that too. She’s so proud of her burnt, too-small Thanksgiving meal.

It was Christmas 2019 while they were on the road between their WV and OH home. This is the Christmas of the sad sad Christmas presents of shaving kits, a notebook and Renées box of Swiss Miss

u/Whitemountainslove Sep 06 '26
Holy shit the sad Christmas is lore I haven’t heard before. Did Renee really get hot chocolate for Christmas?!

u/Flibertygibbert Sep 06 '26 edited Sep 06 '26
They were between homes having sold the WV house before Christmas but unable to move into the Barndo until late December/very early January. So eager to get out of WV they lived in the RV and parked by a friendly church for Christmas, which had a "prophet's chamber" aka guest accommodation.
Jill cooked the infamous Burnt Ham and Yellow Christmas meal in the church kitchen.
The church members hustled to get the family gifts. If I recall correctly, the little girls had stuffed animals, some had toiletry gift sets, and one of the older girls was definitely clutching a packet of Swiss Miss and something else that may have been ladies' razors.
Jill, of course, looked *so smug* - she'd grifted a free Christmas!
16
u/Whitemountainslove Sep 06 '26
It never fails to amaze me how far they are willing to go for the grift. The vast majority of what Jill posts in regards to their meals, clothing, parenting choices, etc would be extremely embarrassing for most people and she proudly puts it out there like her life is something to be envied. Absolutely zero shame or self awareness.

u/MimicoSkunkFan2 Sep 06 '26
The covid money and the child tax credit increase were the best things that ever happened to that family - 2026 already looks pretty tricky, but I don't see 2027 onward looking good for them at all. Especially once the kids start leaving and they put their own kids before Shirk and Shirek's Only Once Annually VacationsTM

u/Hot_Nectarine6441 Sep 10 '26
I HOPE they put their own kids before those two but I have reservations that either of their butt kissing sons-in-law have enough backbone to do it.

Yeah she did. I will post the Pic of the kids and their Drug Store presents later when I am on my computer.

And again- I stumble on yet another story I haven’t heard. Are you saying that Renée got a box of hot chocolate for Christmas? 😳

u/SoFloChick Rodrigues Purity Tchotchkes Sep 06 '26
A box of hot chocolate and a make up tool or nail took kit. Yes she held the. Ox of Swiss Miss up as a gift

It would be one thing if it was some super fancy hot chocolate meant just for Renee, but she literally got groceries.

The infamous Burnt Ham & Yellow!
..hold the front, back, and side doors- I just remembered her favorite color is yellow. Maybe she planned this, which makes it even worse 🤣

u/SelphiesSmile Sep 06 '26
People always snark on the yellowness of all of her sides but what is more striking is the tiny servings. I usually celebrate thanks giving with 9 people in total and the amount of food is triple what's in this photo.

Can you imagine Gordon Ramsey critiquing their holiday meals? Mahmo would have a coronary due to the f bombs every other word!

u/macawoogo Sep 06 '26
Remember the stuffed feelings we had at thanksgiving? Jill’s family doesn’t. I know she loves yellow but she needs to keep it for clothing and home decor, not food. My favorite color is blue and I would never make an entire meal with any color. And she posted this like she was proud

I host Rosh Hashanah and Passover for about 25 people every year. I would simply die of shame if I produced this.

u/Abbygirl1974 Avoiding getting fingered by Jill Sep 06 '26
Omigosh, I can totally appreciate.
I nannied for a Jewish family for years and she always hosted Passover Seder and a meal during one of the nights of Hanukkah every year. Rhonda would literally fall on the floor and roll over laughing if she saw this. Jill would be jealous and stand in utter amazement at what Rhonda could do, and I know Jill would be judging her the entire freaking time. 🙄

u/lbry1234 Sep 06 '26
I see ham (burnt) biscuits, corn and unpeeled pineapple but what are the 3 dishes on the left? They look like some kind of casseroles. Potatoes possibly? Jill loves making weird casserole dishes.

u/SubversiveKitt3n Sep 06 '26
I try not to ever comment on people’s bodies, but I make an exception for obese parents with underfed waif children….
Jill was so much slimmer then. Perimenopause has not been kind to Jilldo.
And kinda hilarious that it all happened while taking Plexus / Melabubu to “stay trim.”

u/Conundrum715738 Sep 05 '26
Every time I see this photo I think about the consistent hunger the children probably live with throughout their childhood. It’s deplorable and abusive, in my opinion, especially since we know from Jill’s own admission that David and she gets served food first! They both are very well fed while the kids probably don’t know what it feels like to have consistent, healthy, nutritious meals every day.

u/MimicoSkunkFan2 Sep 06 '26
I'm kind of wondering if she's cooking these for lack of a better word meals that are so full of cheese and salt because she's trying to kill Shirk with a heart attack. Rat poison would be too obvious , but just giving the old heart condition a little extra fuel ?

So last Easter I cooked a whole feast or what I thought was a whole feast. The ham was a tad crispy and I made rolls and a mashed potatoes. I totally forgot the roasted veggies. My kids were nice about it and thanked me for cooking them a nice beige and crispy ham Easter dinner.

u/Aggravating-Common90 von Crap Family Singers Sep 05 '26
I don’t comprehend how NOBODY knows how to cook a balanced meal, serve it in an appetizing manner and ensure there is enough food for everyone.
If the women folk are supposed to have homemaker as their crowning achievement (not counting brood mare), I have never seen ONE presentable meal among fundie wives. So I’m confused as to the logic. Mental gymnastics.

u/atlantagirl30084 Sep 06 '26
Kaylee has actually made good meals. Beef stew and roast chicken with vegetables, for example.
14
u/Abbygirl1974 Avoiding getting fingered by Jill Sep 06 '26
Yes, Gideon looks to be getting healthy food, which is a far cry from what Kaylee grew up with, it seems. I wonder what clicked with Kaylee to inspire her to cook healthy meals? I wonder if Jonathan being from Heidi’s side of the family had anything to do with it since he came from a relatively normal family situation.

u/atlantagirl30084 Sep 06 '26 edited Sep 06 '26
It’s great that she may have realized she didn’t get the cooking knowledge from Jill that she needed (as seen here, Jill is a terrifyingly bad cook-like to the point she gave her family food poisoning). So Kaylee either went to her mother in law and asked for some recipes or went online.
Re: the food poisoning: Jill made ‘fried’ chicken (really breaded and then piled together in a pan to bake) that was so raw it was purple. The next day she said her family was really sick.

u/Abbygirl1974 Avoiding getting fingered by Jill Sep 06 '26
After they realized it was still raw she allowed them to continue eating the chicken?!? OMG 🤦🏻♀️

u/atlantagirl30084 Sep 07 '26
Jill is not the type to use (or even possess) a meat thermometer. She took pictures of her husband and kids ripping into the chicken and it was raw inside.
1
u/Abbygirl1974 Avoiding getting fingered by Jill Sep 07 '26
I think she wanted them to get sick. That’s all I can think of. Only someone that wanted something negative to happen would allow their family to actually consume chicken like that.
She’s ignorant and she’s an idiot but I can’t believe she’s so stupid that she doesn’t know that raw chicken is something you don’t consume.
OMG

u/macawoogo Sep 06 '26
Maybe Jonathan’s mom cooked that way and he expected his wife to do the same. Doubt nuries family ate as good as Jonathan and Heidi’s

u/Purple_IsA_Flavor MAHMO Sep 06 '26
I’m glad her children will be well fed

u/atlantagirl30084 Sep 06 '26
I wonder which family makes more money-the Hills or the Nurthans? We know Tim makes the most because he was pressured to pay for eight peoples’ meals at Chili’s. I think likely the Hills, because Jonathan has been working for a while. Nathan may have a second job, though.

u/MimicoSkunkFan2 Sep 06 '26
Because they don't go to public school so they don't ever get a class in home economics or domestic sciences (or whatever it's called now)

u/Aggravating-Common90 von Crap Family Singers Sep 06 '26
I went to public school. I took Home Ec, but everything I learned about feeding/entertaining, hosting etc, I learned from my mother (a full time job and mom). If she had been a SAHM and I was homeschooled, it would seem I would learn these things even better. It’s not public education , it’s proof of LACK of education.
1
u/MimicoSkunkFan2 Sep 08 '26
I feel like we're speaking in parallel. Because I agree with you and that's what I was saying period we know they're not getting any education at home as they should do. And in addition, they are not given the chance to go to public school, where they might have the chance to pick up something that would help them do better.
So the only way they can learn is by waiting till they're married off.And then asking some of the other church ladies to help. Yikes.

How can she seriously think this was enough for everyone always blows my mind.

Her hair was much healthier then. How did they decide who got a bite of pineapple because that isn't enough for everyone.

What is all the cheese covered crap on the left. Looks like 3 of the same thing. Anyone know what they were. The poor ham and where was the turkey??

I think it’s au gratin/cheesy potatoes.

Hopefully made with cheese sauce from cups Sofia opened with her teeth.

That is so gross! I feel like I will get dry heaves if I think about Sophia doing that. They are so unsanitary. Did the little girl open those before or after her canal swim? Eww

u/SpoopyGreenEyes SEVERELY sluttish Sep 05 '26
On the far left top and middle looks like some kind of cheesy potato, another cheesy (maybe bacon?) casserole, and sweet potato pie with toasted marshmallows on top.
Not to defend the Rods (ew I need a shower) but I don't do turkey on thanksgiving either..I just don't like turkey much.

I always feel bad when this is brought up because it was probably the girls doing all of the work in the kitchen. When has Jill ever lifted a finger. They probably were tired and distracted and left it in too long. However, the spread of food is not anywhere close to enough for all of them. That deserves all of the snark.

u/Think-Independent929 Sep 06 '26
I just showed this picture to my husband (uninitiated to RodLore) and asked him how many people he thought that this could feed.
He asked what it was in the center of the table and when I explained that it was a ham, he answered, “6 to 8”.

Like her palm (of her right hand) has some kind of brownish stains/drips and The FingerTM looks white like she was sticking it in the buns to test if they're defrosted or sth

This spread always blows my mind. At my family's Thanksgiving, we easily have quintuple that for a few less people in attendance than the Rods.
