Scrapple

Scrapple is a meat product made from scraps of meat that are collected while cutting up a hog. It is then cooked in a large pot along with some corn meal and a bunch of spices. Then ya pour the whole concoction into a pan(bread pan or such) and after it cools it will be in the form of a loaf. take it out of the form and wrap it up and into the freezer except for the one ya just gotta eat. Fry it up and have some BROWN eggs and some homemade black raspberry jelly on toast. mmmm-ummm-mmmm. Some homefries cooked up in some of the lard ya made when cuttin up that ol hog and ya really gotta go lay down for a while. Still have my old lard pot that belonged to (at least) my great great aunt. Still using her recipe for scrapple too. She gave her recipe to a company that still uses her recipe in the commercial market..after over a 100 yrs. I gave the recipe to a slaughter house/meat market not far from where i lived. They've been using it for at least 10 yrs. Only scrapple recipe they use. Think I'm gonna have to raise me a couple of hogs next year!!
