Scrapple: Who Here Likes it too... (ingredient, best, pork, eggs)

[Town&Country]

I rarely hear of anybody down here who likes scrapple... I know its more of a northern thing but I can get two kinds down here. I like the Philly brand the best. Don't eat it all of the time but it is more of a treat once in awhile.

I know whats in it but it is pretty darn tasty fried. Anyone else like it with eggs and buttered toast?

Or, have ways and means or recipe's for it other than frying it?

Isn't it similar to liver mush

I'm pretty sure it's the southern version of scrapple

I love scrapple. However, the family doesn't so I rarely buy it just for me.

I hear you... its not something we eat every week but it is a nice treat once in awhile. I slice it around a 1/2 an inch thick and fry it, pretty traditional way. Usually have it in the cold months... great with a couple of over medium eggs and buttered toast.

lol it appears they are nearly identical! Neeses is the big brand down here. I know a farmer who sells homemade tho and it's better.

Best cut thin and fried crispy in some butter w/ eggs and country ham. I didn't think I'd like it the first time I tried it, but it's delicious.

Livermush

My husband loves it. I am not a fan though. Yes, livermush is similar to scrapple. If he goes to a restaurant that only has livermush, he asks for it 'grilled' rather than 'fried'. He thinks the frying makes the livermush too dry. At home, he grills it in a pan and then cooks his eggs in the grease.

As a child my neighbors were Irish immigrants. I would sleep over their house occasionally, and Scrapple was always on breakfast menu. I begged my mother to buy me some, only to read the ingredient list when she brought it home. Somehow, "pig snout" killed my appetite for it.

lol... I'm not a fan of odd foods... but this is one snout I like. The Philly brand seems to be the best other than homemade, which I've not had in probably 30 years.
