Does Anyone Else Like Scrapple?

I used to have as a kid growing up in southwest PA. I even made it once for my wife. Don't think she was impressed. We used to eat it for breakfast, topped with maple syrup.

No, I don't. I have never had it, but would like to give it a try. I would also like to try livermush from North Carolina. I think they are all pretty much the same. Wherever Germans settled you will find this sort of food.

some of the worst shite ive ever tried in my life, at the reading terminal market

We went to PA a while back and went to breakfast at some diner.

I'll try anything, I love hogshead cheese, didn't care for scrapple.

Now give me some NJ breakfast meat, known as pork roll or Taylor ham depending on if you are in North jersey or South Jersey.

I like it on a breakfast sandwich. When I lived on the eastern shore of Maryland, I'd always grab a scrapple, egg, and cheese sandwich at the Royal Farms before going fishing.

I miss Royal Farms and WaWa gas stations now that I'm back in the south.

My father was from Philadelphia and we grew up eating it. All of us in the family love it and he used to order Habbersett in November because back then they only shipped during cold months and we all got a few 1 lb blocks of it.

Love it fried really crispy with an over easy egg. I still order it from time to time. I make his Hoagies too.

The difference between it and hogs head cheese is scrapple uses cornmeal as a binder where hogs head is gelatin. And it’s eaten hot where hogs head cheese is typically eaten cold.

Livermush in North Carolina is pretty much the same as scrapple except more liver.

I’ll eat all of them. They include everything but the squeal.

Yep.

But not as much as livermush which is about the only difference between those two.

I put pork liver in my boudin. It’s a great flavor.

It's okay, depending on who made it. I've had some that was really good and some that was not. I like pudding better than scrapple or pon haus, if you are talking about food made from the pig butchering byproducts.

the time I ate it it was less gelatinous, it was ok. But not really seasoned.
