Air Fried Scrapple (Best way yet)




This is the first time I ever Air Fried Scrapple, but it surely won’t be the last time!!!
It was nice & Crispy on the outside, and perfectly done on the inside, and not greasy at all.
Even this “Habbersett” brand was good——I can’t wait to try Hatfield in this Ninja!!

Up until this week, Giant was out of Hatfield, so we had to get Habbersett.
This last time they had Hatfield, so we got 2 packs of 1 pound each. One pound is just right for the 2 of us.

So I sliced my Scrapple @ 1/2” Thick. Set the Ninja on “Air Fry”—--
At 400°. Set at 30 minutes.
Preheat until it says “ADD FOOD”. Then Spread the Scrapple out in one layer.
Check @ 15 minutes—Then again after another 5 minutes—Then another 3 to 5 minutes should do it. (Depends on how dry you want it)
First night I added some of Mrs Bear’s Home Fries and some green beans.

Second night I added some more Home Fries, Green Beans, and a few Baby Pickled Red Beets.
Both "Frank's Hot Sauce" and "Jeff's BBQ Sauce" were involved.


Thanks for the Visit, Guys,

Bear


One 16 ounce pack of Habbersett Scrapple. Not my favorite---Hatfield is My Favorite, but they were "Out-of-Stock":

That looks so good. We use to have Habbersett or Hatfield scrapple for many meals, especially with fried mush. Been years since Kroger carried Habbersett in SC. I'd walk out with 8-10 # packages and freeze them. Now I have to either make my own scrapple (not the same) or Leberkäse 🍻

I can honestly say I've never heard of scrapple before until seeing this thread!

I'll have to keep an eye out for it the next time I'm in the market.
 
Great looking scrapple John!! Habbersett is my preferred store brand when I can’t get homemade. My aunt and uncle make a few pans a year when butchering hogs. I like theirs the best.

So with the airfryer you don’t have to flip it? That’s pretty awesome if you don’t!

Scrapple is a serious staple in my household.

Thank You Xray!!!
Yup---No Flipping---Sounds strange, but ------
I didn't flip these to see what happens. They would have been a PITA to flip anyway, because they were pretty tight together.
Without flipping they were all done on both sides, by the same amount, so it would have been a waste of time flipping them. Perfect !!!
And Thanks for the Like.

Looks real good John. The home fries look good too. I have never had Scrapple, lol. I know about it just never had it. I don't know if it's available here in Ga. Great job as always.
 
Great looking scrapple John! I haven't had any for quite a while, I kinda forgot about it. I can see some in the near future!

man do I miss scrapple. Can't get it out on the west coast unless I ship it in. Great Idea using the air fryer.
 
Can't say as I've ever had scrapple John, looks great, guess I've led a sheltered life. RAY

Thank You Wurst!!
I made small batches years ago, and I helped a few other Deer hunting clubs make some, but I didn't like any of them as much as we like Hatfield. This Habbersett isn't bad either, but not as good as Hatfield. IMO
And Thanks for the Like.
BTW: I haven't had Mush since I was a Kid, but I didn't like it then. I'm wondering if I'd like it now??

Hi Bear

Never heard of Scrapple , is it like some kind of spam, we have , or used to have canned meat ( maybe meat ) Clic, and Klam , i think were the brands. And what we called Bullie Beef . Corned beef from Brazil and we can still get it

<<<<Scrapple, also known by the Pennsylvania Dutch name Pannhaas or "pan rabbit",[1][2] is traditionally a mush of pork scraps and trimmings combined with cornmeal and wheat flour, often buckwheat flour, and spices. The mush is formed into a semi-solid congealed loaf, and slices of the scrapple are then pan-fried before serving. Scraps of meat left over from butchering, not used or sold elsewhere, were made into scrapple to avoid waste. Scrapple is best known as an American food of the Mid-Atlantic states (Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Virginia).

Scrapple and panhaas are commonly considered an ethnic food of the Pennsylvania Dutch, including the Mennonites and Amish. Scrapple is found in supermarkets throughout the region in both fresh and frozen refrigerated cases.>>>>


Many of my hunting Buddies (Past tense for me) get together, and chip in parts of their Deer. Then they all get together to cook up some Big Batches of Scrapple. Then they divvy it up among themselves. Many Liquid Refreshments are consumed by All.

I know it's rough to find in some areas, but I think it's worth the hunt.
