Bette's Ocean View Diner Scrapple (this one sounds really good)
2 pounds pork shoulder (or pork butt)
1 whole fresh pork hock
2 cups yellow cornmeal
1 teaspoon cayenne
1 teaspoon sage
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon white pepper
2 teaspoons black pepper
Cut up pork shoulder (butt) into 2 inch chunks. Place the pork chunks, pork hock, sage and cayenne in a stock pot and cover with water. Simmer for about 2 to 3 hours or until meat falls apart. Drain and reserve stock.
Pull meat from bone and chop all the meat with a knife or food processor, being careful not to grind it too fine. Set aside.
Measure 5 cups of stock and return to pot. Bring it to a simmer; add meat, cornmeal, salt and peppers, and stir constantly until thick and smooth, about 15 to 30 minutes.
Pour mixture into 2 loaf pans and refrigerate until completely chilled. Un-mold scrapple. Slice and fry until golden brown and crisp on both sides.
Makes 12 servings.

i have made this recipe many times. i use a pressure cooker and cook the meat one hour instead of 3 in a pot. it comes out great, everybody loves it. Betty's recipe is the best and most authentic.
ReplyDeletescrapple is sold on the internet. it has to be frozen which changes the consistency. if you are able to make it yourself you won't be disappointed. I hesistate to order by mail as so many things can delay the shipment.
