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--


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.

So you know scrapple, 22566. That's a good thing. I'm glad I was able to stir up fond memories for you, my friend!

And I'm just a well-done scrapple kinda girl, bobby. Thanks for the 5!

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.
