Ingredients

How to make it

  • Cut pork shoulder into 3 to 4" cubes.
  • Put in a pot of water large enough to hold all the meat.
  • Simmer pork until it is completely cooked, about 30 to 40 minutes.
  • Put cooked through the "coarse" disc of the meat grinder.
  • After meat is entirely ground, add the sage, nutmeg and cornmeal and mix very, very well.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste (we do not add any)
  • Shape mixture into two loaves.
  • You can use a loaf pan also.
  • Allow to cool.
  • Refrigerate and let harden.
  • To serve:
  • Cut loaf into 3/4" thick patties.
  • Lightly pat flour onto both sides of patties.
  • Fry patties in canola oil until browned.
  • Can be frozen.

    Does this recepie really call for mixing DRYcornmeal with the pork? I thought you had to cook the cornmeal with water to make cornmealo mush before stirring it into the pork.

    Mmm! Methinks you will love this, knox. Once you try it commercially, you may just decide to buy a grinder. You can use much better pork making it yourself. Commercial scrapple makers don't use "real" pork...
    Thanks.

    I had scrapple for the first time in Lancaster a long long time ago. The waitress suggested trying it with mapple syrup,but i prefer it with hot sauce. Thanks for another 5 recipe.

    Oh wow! Hey, I saw a block of this in the frozen foods the other day at Kroger and I had no idea what it was. I did remember seeing it here on GR, though---so it's neat that you've posted this recipe! I will have to go buy that block and fry some up to see if I like it. I *would* try making it, because it sounds wonderful---I just don't have a grinder. Thanks,--Kn0x--
