What R U Eating ? ~OGH wants to know.....

but no scrapple. Whatever that is...

:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

Get in your car, icky. I'm heating the skillet back up.

I think it's a little bit of a regional thing... I've met people in the northern area of my state that had never even heard of it.

This scrapple was made from scratch by a guy that works for me. He buys a whole pig once or twice a year with a buddy and the families get together to butcher it for the day. Make bacon, roasts, chops and even pork rinds. Leftovers go into a big kettle with a bit of water... Usually a lot of the offal like kidneys, heart, etc. They'll use meat from the head like cheeks and stuff, this is where some people lose the appetite. It's, essentially, like sausage.

Anyways, the water in the kettle simmers and cooks the meat. They add cornmeal to the water to thicken it and then pour the mix into pans and refrigerate. Turns into a kind of fragile loaf. Cut off slices of the loaf and pan fry them in a bit of oil and have with eggs, pancakes and syrup, etc.

THAT'S scrapple. There's different variations, some of them get a little hardcore.

Your right it almost turns me off lol. But I'd be down to try it.

I really like heart and liver and stuff, not necessarily from pork, but I kind of dig it. I looked at the nutritional facts, it's very high in vitamin A which is indicative of offal.

I really like it with pancakes but, I'm on a diet so I couldn't go too crazy. If you ever come across it, I highly recommend trying it. It's a fun food.

already driving my man! Sounds damn good.

Have to admit the great mind was the wife's. 2 eggs and toast for her. Mine has a 2nd plate. View attachment 84418

That picture is a perfect example of why we're friends, icky. Bravo.

At least 5 days a week man. Starting off with a solid breakfast is a big deal for me mentally. 4 large eggs, 2 eggs equivalent of egg whites and diced ham with a 1/8 stick of salted butter. Usually have 2 Kodiak waffles, 3 today. Low sugar syrup.
