We don't dredge ours in flour, just fry up in slices. It is basically a cornmeal base, with all the trimmings from the hog not used elsewhere, and makes an awesome extra . I can eat just that without eggs or anything... WAY BACK WHEN...... it was a way to utilize every last bit of the hog and not waste anything. With the cornmeal base, it also is a good "filler" for a meal. Most often served with breakfast, but can be added to any pork meal. I like it best with eggs, for breakfast. You can leave off the bacon as there is plenty of flavor in it in my opinion.

I need to get off high center, thaw out a hog's head and make some scrapple. What spices do you use?

Any flavor you like. Similar seasoning to what you may put in beef and noodles or dressing/stuffing. It is fine to use pork(head, organs, etc), but I like using beef. It is good for breakfast. Some put maple syrup on it, but it is good as a main course or side to go with other meat. It was often used to finish up a game carcass or after butchering. Being in corn meal allowed the meat to keep longer.

I haven't had any since I was a little girl and my grandmother made it.

I see its been several days since checking in. Figured I should on my anniversary to BYH. Merry Christmas everyone! TSC gives everyone Christmas Day off. We had a good Christmas Eve Service last night with abt 50ppl in attendance followed with popcorn at home and our annual "A Christmas Story" movie marathon. Our annual rendition of this night of popcorn is to pop in bacon grease. Later today we travel up to the Crawfordsville area to visit some family. I wish everyone safe travels and a peaceful end to 2018 and blessed New Year!
