Another winner. I have seen the scrapple in loaves at the PA Dutch store down south
In Ephrata we used to make it with buckwheat flour in it.

Our old family recipe is 1lb sage, pepper, salt, 15lbs flour, 10ibs corn meal, 5lbs buck wheat flour this recipe is for the meat from 7 hogs (not the whole hog)

Looks Great, Never had Scrapple but i'll bet i'd like it (not much I don't like)

Like for sure
Gary

Thank You Gary!!
You almost had some Scrapple.
That day you visited us, We thought about making you some Scrapple, but since you can only fry a little at a time, I chose to make a Grill full of Pork Roll instead.
And Thanks for the Like.

Yes sir another great meal by the Bear. That's way we do things around here thin and crisp.
A pointer on freezing scrapple if you freeze the whole block it becomes mealy and falls apart
when thawed.
Slice and freeze on a cookie sheet then bag it and fry as many slices as you want. Put right in
fry pan frozen.

Warren

Thank You Warren!!
I'll have to give that a try. Thanks.

Never had scrapple either . I looked for it at the place that carries the pork roll here . No go .
Always had butter and syrup on my french toast . Nice meal .

Thank You Rich!!
Hmmm, You would think Scrapple would be more available across the country than Pork Roll.
Maybe that's how we get even for not seeing "Tri Tips" around here!!

Nice! I like scrapple but prefer Panhas.


either way, I like it sliced thin, fried very crispy, slathered in butter, and seasoned with salt and black pepper!
 
I’d take a few plates of that Bear! Scrapple is life for my family. Fond memories of my grandfather frying up slices on his cast iron pan. Crispy on the outside soft on the inside- it’s perfection.

I know what I’m cookin up this weekend.....
 
We love scrapple. We keep a pound in the fridge when things get busy and it's scrapple and waffles for dinner. We get rapa down here. Its a bit darker than yours. The local shops sell "Country pudding" and "Hog Pan" or "Pan Huas" its not even close. Both of the latter two are so very plain, at leats what they make out here locally
 
Only way I can get scrapple here is to make homemade. I did have some at a restaraunt in Portland Oregon. Theirs was made in house. No scrapple out West I guess

LOL--That's the way We get even with Tri Tips not making their way to SouthEast PA.

Bear


Dad made this for us every year. Remember it well and always loved it on a cold morning with eggs and bacon! See recipe in sig....

Yup---I have to agree---It's even better on those cold mornings with Eggs & Home Fried Taters.

Never had Scrapple or even seen it available around here. I will say the end product looks a whole lot more appetizing then the raw loaf. Kuddos my friend.

Point for sure

Oh yea! Fine looking breakfast Bear. I haven't had scrapple for a couple of years.....going to have to change that. Like

Thank You Denny!!
If you never had Hatfields Scrapple, try to find some!!
And Thanks for the Like.

Bear


Yum!! Scrapple is a favorite of mine! I still have a bunch of homemade left (I cut an 8lb block into slices and vac seal portions)

I’ve never had the hatfield brand, looks like it fries up good though!!

Now, I’m hungry and probably making it for breakfast tomorrow! Like!!

Thank You Xray!!
And for the Like.

Bear
 
French toast looks yummy, I would of added a little cinnamon to the egg mix though.
You can keep that scrapple! Never acquired a taste for scrapple, wife loves it, me not so much. Maybe if I put enough of maple syrup on it I might be able to eat it, not sure?
 
Looks good. Finding Scrapple here is hit or miss. Scrapple, Egg and Cheese sandwiches are good too...JJ

Yup---We always have it with Home Fries.
This is the first time I had it with French Toast & Maple Syrup, because I heard about it.
Not bad!! I'll do it again, but I still like it with Home Fries Best.

Bear


I tried it once barely made it to the trash can, That is my Honest Opinion
Richie
Oh My wife was right behind me LOL


Thank You Richie!!
I don't blame you, but it depends on the Scrapple.
I had some like you're talking about.
I had some from Barringer's that was terrible!! I didn't put any oil in the pan, and the scrapple ended up floating in the excessive Fat from the Scrapple.
You gotta try "Hatfield Scrapple" sliced thin & fried---I'm betting you'll love it.
Even Mrs Bear Loves it.

Bear,

Do not remember if I have had it when I lived down south (South Carolina and Southeast Florida), but I do remember it when I was a kid growing up in Cincinnati, it is called Goetta, somewhat different but similar, it is cut and fried for breakfast. Great with eggs over easy. But the french toast idea is one to try.

@Sowsage knows about it I believe, we talked about it in one of his posts. I found where I could get it online and a copycat recipe, just need to get some or make some. Thanks for the reminder.

LIKE!

See Below:

Goetta is pretty similar but made with oats instead of cornmeal. And I don't think it includes liver. But they are made using the same process I believe. Both are delicious in my book

Here's more on "Hatfield Scrapple":

Details
Add a traditional american breakfast staple to your menu with this Hatfield 5 lb. scrapple. Great for any diner or breakfast cafe, pork-lovers will rave over its savory, rich taste with its soft center and crispy exterior. Serve as a side plate to scrambled eggs with sweet or savory condiments, like ketchup or maple syrup, or simply between two slices of white bread. You can even use it as the protein in your delicious egg and cheese sandwiches.

A testament to the american past, this scrapple is made with Pennsylvania Dutch-style recipe. It is made with a blend of finely minced quality pork ingredients that are combined with whole wheat, corn meal, and a blend of spices that is then formed into a loaf. Easy to cook, slice a recommended 1/4" thickness and pan fry over medium heat. Brown each side for 8-10 minutes, or until desired crispiness is reached.

Based in Hatfield, PA, Hatfield, a part of Clemens Food Group, is a sixth-generation, family-owned business that prides themselves on operating on a higher level of standard to ensure that they are not just another pork supplier in the industry. Their commitment to ethically raising their animals, integrity to their employees and customers, and sustainable practices result in the production of high quality pork products with great taste that you and your customers can trust.

Nice! I like scrapple but prefer Panhas.


either way, I like it sliced thin, fried very crispy, slathered in butter, and seasoned with salt and black pepper!


Thank You Bill !!
Yup, These don't need much seasoning added.
I used to sprinkle a little more salt on it, but since I quit adding salt to anything, I don't miss it on the Scrapple.

Yup. when I make Panhas, I dont add salt... Add to taste when it is ready to eat. I'm hungry. no time to make Panhas, will grab some scrapple.

LOL---The memories we have here are how Mrs Bear used to Fry Full pan after full pan of Scrapple, and I'd eat them as fast as she could slice, pan, and fry them.
Now I only eat one Pan of Scrapple for a meal. Back then I'd eat like a Pig, and keep a 32" waste.
Those days are over!

One of the advantages of living in this PA Dutch World around here.
They even have this Scrapple at local Restaurants with Eggs, as an option with Bacon, Ham or Scrapple.

Thank You Chris---It's not actually Raw. They cook it all in huge batches when they make it.
However the only one I know who eats it without frying it is my Older Brother. That's pretty much disgusting, especially since I saw him eat that worst Scrapple I mentioned earlier, like that---Without frying it!!
