Ralph's Market on Jones Creek has some of the best head cheese I've ever had. They make it in house.

Just curious.

I've been told by others who have gone through the process, it's better to just go out and buy HHC.

It's too labor intensive to bother with. Plus it's a relatively cheap item. Even the good stuff.

Just curious what Head Cheese Mavens think.

It is labor intensive but well worth the effort. It's not expensive to make.

Makin your own is always better

And don't boil the hog head inside if you have a stinky stinky

Finished the HHC last night,Not bad for the first try....little light on the seasoning,,I would rather err on not enough than to much

I may reconstitute it and add more

Looks nice. I always try to over-season...the finished product is always less spicy. I like to add minced jalapeños to mine for just this reason.

And you can reheat, reseason, and reconstitute that batch.
