Pork patties
From xnipek 14 years agoIngredients
- 1 pound, ground pork (plain pork, not sausage), shopping list
- 1/3 cup water shopping list
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Morton's Tender Quick or sugar Cure shopping list
- 2 teaspoons liquid smoke shopping list
- 2 teaspoons onion powder shopping list
- 1/2 teaspoon coarse ground black pepper shopping list
How to make it
- For one pound of ground pork, increase accordingly for each pound of meat. One pound will make about 16 patties when measured by 1/8 cup. Burger-size will depend on how much meat is used. I recommend no more than 3 pound in a batch; otherwise it will take a long to mix well.
- Dissolve the Tender Quick or Sugar Cure in the water.
- Break the meat up into about a half dozen or more small clumps (this will help the cure and spices mix quickly and evenly) in a large mixing bowl.
- Pour in the water/cure mixture, liquid smoke, and spices.
- Mix thoroughly, but do not take too much time. You do not want the meat to warm up; placing the bowl on a bed of ice is a good idea.
- Place meat mixture in a covered bowl or plastic bag; refrigerate for 8 to 12 hours.
- Form in desired size patties.
- Fry as you would pork sausage or hamburgers.
- The cooked meat will appear pink because of the curing agent, the same as cured hams.
- The Morton brand is used in these instructions because that is what I use. Using other brands or forms of meat cures will require figuring out the correct proportions.
