Philadelphia Scrapple
- 2 pounds pork shoulder (or pork butt)
- 1 whole fresh pork hock
- 2 cups yellow cornmeal
- 1 teaspoon cayenne
- 1 teaspoon sage
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 1 teaspoon white pepper
- 2 teaspoons black pepper
Cut up pork shoulder (butt) into 2 inch chunks. Place the pork chunks, pork hock, sage and cayenne in a stock pot and cover with water. Simmer for about 2 to 3 hours or until meat falls apart. Drain and reserve stock.
Pull meat from bone and chop all the meat with a knife or food processor, being careful not to grind it too fine. Set aside.
Measure 5 cups of stock and return to pot. Bring it to a simmer; add meat, cornmeal, salt and peppers, and stir constantly until thick and smooth, about 15 to 30 minutes.
Pour mixture into 2 loaf pans and refrigerate until completely chilled. Un-mold scrapple. Slice and fry until golden brown and crisp on both sides.
Makes 12 servings.
