Scrapple Breakfast & Football Snacks​

So I started out on a Sunday Morning with making some Scrapple in my Ninja:

The first 2 slices ended up on a plate with a couple of Sunny-Side-Up Eggs.

Then later that day, I needed some snacks for my Football game: Fly Eagles, Fly!!
So I put some Deer Bologna slices on some Ritz Crackers, Nuked them & squirted some
Cheddar Cheese on them. Yuuummmm!!!

It was a Good Day!

Looks real good John. Now you have to eat that same food every week for good luck for the Eagles, lol.

Looks great, never thought to put in an air fryer - Now I get to expose the family to the joy of scrapple!

Looks good Bear. I’ve never done scrapple but I do love Amish pan pudding.

This scrapple thing is driving me crazy since Bearcarver has posting about it!

I gotta get me some but I've been looking and looking and its something that just isn't available here in southern New England area.

I think you would find it closer to mush here in SC/GA, except with a binder like grain. The old saying on how to make it was... add everything except the oink! The original idea was to use up all the remaining pieces of the pig after slaughter, nothing wasted. Boil like crazy, hopefully outside (strong odor similar to boiling chitlins!) add some grain as a binder, let it thicken, ladle it out into loaf pans or whatever you have, let it firm up, and enjoy!

Bear, that would also taste good with a side of fried cornmeal mush covered in honey.

Gotcha and thanks John.

It's hard to explain, but Wurstmeister hit it about right. (Post #12)
It's nothing like Treat or Spam.
The closest "Similar" we can think of would be Fresh Pork Sausage, with a little Cornmeal added. And "Fried Mush" has a similar flavor.
I love it, but I love a lot of things---However Mrs Bear Loves it---Now that's saying something!!!

Thank You for the Kind Words, John.
I can honestly say I used to love Shoe Laces, but they were "Licorice".

Thank You Alsta!!
Air Fry is definitely best for Scrapple---Crispy outside, and tastes Great!!
Not at all Greasy, which makes it Super!!

Bear

Looks tasty bear! Go eagles

Thank You Jim!!
Hope we don't have to bring Nick Foles in again to finish the job.
And Thanks for the Like.

Scrapple looks great as always Bear!

For as much as I make it, I’ve been considering buying one of those air fryer lids just so I can cook it like this. I’m thinking the lid would be easier than trying to convince the missus of another gadget.

I couldn't do that. I don't think it would work near as good as the Ninja Smart Grill, and if it did, I'd still want the real thing, so:
$100. for the Lid
$250 For the Ninja Smart Grill
$350---Total

Kinda like when I bought my first MES.
Got the MES30 to save $$$
Ended up getting an MES40 anyway, so the $$$ I spent on the MES30 was a loss.
